I agree, Miss Sandra! Thanks for stopping by!

[@marlenestephenson1239]

I love seeing how you redo your rooms. Love your dining room and the mirror you used. Your lamp was an added appealing piece. It is a nice and peaceful place to enjoy eating in. Your house is truly becoming who you and Matt are, can't wait to see what you do next.

[@StoneCottageHome]

Thank you, Miss Marlene! We're glad to have you along!

[@murielbaith5445]

The mirror and lower furniture expand the look of your space so much.

[@StoneCottageHome]

Yes, Ma'am! Originally, I had a piece of art there, but the mirror really opened the space. Plus, as you said, the lower profile furniture simplified and expanded the space even more. Thanks for visiting!

[@birdie9680]

Rachel, your channel is my favorite!!! I have truly enjoyed watching you express yourself from room to room. I love being able to watch your thought process and your youthful enthusiasm is precious. And I must say, Mat is an amazing young man. It's fun to watch the bloopers and see the playfulness between the two of you. Keep up the great work, and I will DEFINITELY keep watching!!! 😊

[@StoneCottageHome]

What a nice compliment on our channel, Miss Birdie! I totally agree, Matt is amazing! He not only makes my design dreams come to life, but he makes it fun! The kitchen remodel is next, and we are actually installing countertops and a new sink & faucet today! Thanks for being here!

Oh Rachel, it's all so lovely! It always amazes me of the transformation that paint and wallpaper provide to spaces. The flow looks beautiful from your dining room to the living room. It's all so very tasteful and classic, and truly gives that English Cottage vibe. I can't wait to see your kitchen! Thank you as always for encouraging us towards all things lovely. Your posts are also so delightful in offering a pleasing, calming sense to my heart. Many blessings! 💗

[@StoneCottageHome]

Good morning, Miss Roxie! I'm so glad you're enjoying our channel! In looking back over the old footage of the living & dining rooms from before, it is amazing the difference paint & wallpaper makes! We are making great headway on the kitchen. We removed the old countertop, the plastic-y backsplash, and are currently prepping the new counterop. We're hoping to get the new sink/faucet installed and hooked up today! Thanks for dropping by, and have a lovely day. 🌷

Excellent, looks great. I would place a nice area rug and cover the tiles in the dining room and move that large dark sofa out and replace it with the lovely settee which you placed by the front door and remove the guitar.

[@StoneCottageHome]

Thank you. We may add a rug at some point. The large sofa stays until we can afford to replace it. Thanks for stopping by.

[@robinnieto2703]

Rachel, I have gone through many styles in my almost 39 years of marriage, mostly following trends I didn’t like. As a person who grew up with little to no belongings, I wanted a cozy, welcoming and bearable home. Not knowing where to start, I followed those trends that everyone was doing. About 7 years ago, after reading many books on decorating, following along on Pinterest boards and seeing some beautiful homes, I came to realize that my style is a mix. I love English cottage with small touches of farmhouse. I am slowly getting there in my home with thrifted treasures, DIYS and gifted items. It’s very common for my 4 sisters to trade items with me. Thank you for sharing your home and ideas. Your channel has been an inspiration to me. ❤️

[@StoneCottageHome]

Hello, Miss Robin! How fun to find your personal style and decorate your home accordingly! Thanks for sharing your journey!

[@yvettewalshe9130]

Omygoodness!!!!!! I love your style!!!!!! It is so beautiful! Your husband is so funny! God bless

[@StoneCottageHome]

Thank you so much! We have a great time working together!

[@0JReynolds]

Hahaha 🤣 I loved the bloopers. Isn’t it funny how styles change. About 9 years ago wallpaper was removed from about 2000 of the 3000 square feet of this home. The walls were all textured. Even paneling was removed. I do love the transformation of your dining area. I think I’d want an area rug under the table but it really looks perfect 💕~ Janet 😘

[@StoneCottageHome]

Hello, Miss Janet! Yes, styles do seem to come and go... I have considered a rug, we'll see what turns up! Thank you!

Your. Dinning room turned. Out. Beautiful. I love it❤

[@vickiecorby8063]

I honestly liked it better with your big hutch. The dining room looks smaller. Loved the wallpaper.

[@pattischolten7303]

You picked my favorite wallpaper! I love that you put your treasured piece in the dining room and the mirror is perfect. I truly ADORE the smaller dining table and chairs as well. My husband did a handyman exchange with some church friends and brought me a similar era dining buffet, table and chairs, with fruit and birds carved into the chairs. It is small, and I have a large dining room - but I have made it work, and it is just so pretty. I love your videos so much. I truly wish I could just sit in your home with you and hear all of your sweet stories. You are a gift to the world - and I think I know what makes you shine! Blessings!

[@StoneCottageHome]

Haha! You guessed it! I love the smaller dark brown furniture set better, too! Your table & chair set sounds lovely. I would love to have you over for a chat over tea and shortbread as well. Thanks for being a part of the Stone Cottage Home community! 🌹 Blessings in Christ, Rachel

Put the table under chandelier. Very Pretty.

[@sweetjesusbyfaith3988]

Just what I was thinking too center table under chandelier and add a area rug under the table but beautiful work love the room

[@thechickincharge1073]

Oh! The flow is SO pleasing to my eyes! Each space draws you in but allows enough difference to make each area seem ‘special’! I have never been able to appreciate the homes that are so cohesive that they lack distinction between spaces, except for obvious furniture pieces that say ‘this is the dining room’. The wall paper was what I would’ve picked myself and your colors are warm without being too strong. Truly just lovely spaces! Now the little things that add your special personality to the dining room.❤️

[@StoneCottageHome]

Thanks for the encouraging words! I'm glad you enjoyed the flow from dining to living and the wallpaper, too. Every morning I enter this kitchen, the cheery paper makes me smile. I plan to recover the chair seats and add curtains at some point. Thanks for stopping by!

Very beautiful, all of it. Lovely wallpaper. Good riddance to 'the Beast'! 😊 The table and chairs are just the right scale, and fit the English country style so well. Hanging the mirror there, over the buffet, did SO much to the light and airy feel! Like an extra window. And the cherry on top was the blue and white lamp. (The first one disappeared.) I really enjoy seeing your room updates and transformations. Well done! (Love the bloopers!)

This was the first video of yours that I watched, and I was instantly hooked; I'm a new subscriber. Your voice is pleasing to listen to and you explain your design and decor choices very well. You're so fortunate to have Matt who has the tools, know-how and the ability to do the "heavy-lifting" to bring your design plan to fruition--the 2 of you make a great team! I just had all my popcorn ceilings replaced with knock-down and all but 2 rooms freshly painted--what a huge difference it makes. As much as I like the English cottage look of wallpaper, I won't have any more in my home, what a job it was spending 4 days scraping it off my small guest bathroom walls. Anyway, I really enjoy learning from your expertise. I love your channel and will keep checking back.

Good morning everyone. I have thoroughly enjoyed your video this morning. I wanted to pass on a trick regarding recovering dining chairs. I am neither rich nor a good seamstress. However, I am quite good at coming up with a plan "B" when needed!😊 I scouted round markets and car boot sales. for cushion covers and odd remnants of materials. I eventually found a set in good order. I paid about £5.00 for them. Once home I washed and ironed the covers. I removed each seat and placed them inside the covers (rather like changing the pillow cases on a bed) I tucked the excess material neatly underneath the seat then stapled 2 hours later---"job "sorted" (As we say in England). The Laura Ashley wall paper that you chose is very popular here. So you are right on trend.🤗 I look forward to your next instalment. Best wishes. Kate

I was just rewatching Sage Lillyman redoing her bathroom (she's in Australia) from a year ago and I thought the wallpaper looked familiar, so I came back to this video and, sure enough, she used the exact same one as you used in your dining room! She used a sage green for the bottom of the walls and the wallpaper half way up. Looks great in your house and hers!

You're right, she did & it looks great!

In a home I had. I hired a carpet cleaner that could steam and scrub my tile. After, it looked like a new floor. I saw someone give a suggestion for floor. The room is just so beautiful. ❤❤

Mind reader! Yes, once all the remodeling is complete, we plan to rent a floor steamer to clean the tile, and then we'll reseal it. Thank you! Glad you liked how the dining room came out!

Very much of a lovely improvement indeed. Good job! But, the table needs to come off the wall and become more centered in the room. I also would take the heavier wood dark stools on the breakfast nook and either paint them a lighter shade or remove them due to them being a bit to heavy and replacing them with something lighter in a stool. Perhaps with a rattan seat.

Thank you, Miss Arlene! We're on the same page, the barstools are too dark, I've looked at Rattan and cane... My plan is to either give these barstools a makover or keep hunting down the perfect trio. Little by little! Our focus was on the dining room for this video. Thanks for stopping by!

It has turned so bright, airy and cozy. I was delaying a room makeover at home and my ideas regarding colors and wood tones were almost the sane. And the wallpaper is so beatiful. Catherine from the Dainty Diaries chose the same for her living room makeover. Great minds think alike!!!

I'm glad you enjoyed this dining room makeover! Hopefully, you gleaned some ideas that will make your project go more smoothly and be just what you envision. Thanks for stopping by and happy decorating!

I think it all turned out lovely however, I think I would either center the chandelier over the table (and move the table out slightly from the wall) or I would take that chandelier and put it in the living room and remove the fan. Of course I’m looking pictures so I can’t tell if the chandelier would be too low for the living room. However, moving the table out a few inches and centering the chandelier over the table is easy job.😊
