EXPOSING my brick wall | Basement Reno

[@marieschmitz]

I think These Episode are better when they’re longer. I just love it so much and I have no problem to watch 45 min or even an hour 😍

[@howaboutno.8433]

Sameee

[@JemibookSews]

I SOOO Agree!! This is literally my favorite content EVER from The Sorry Girls..

[@bonesonstones1]

I'm new here and I don't think this channel would have drawn my attention as much if it weren't for these awesome, super long episodes, I love them too!

[@scottstots2677]

I'm so used to watching The Property Brothers that I almost forget how long renovations actually take. I am so excited for the final reveal of your house!

[@ahumanaperson]

to my knowledge they only take so long because contractors simultaneously work on about five projects at a time which leaves many days unaccounted for. Had a contractor do our bathroom.. "one/ two weeks tops" he says, works one day a fortnight for over two months..

[@Jessa8891]

human, that’s not typical where I live... they do one job at a time unless they have a big enough business to have crews at more than on house at a time.

[@dasheerabranagan7722]

My mom and I have been watching this series together and we’ve been patiently waiting 😂 so excited for a new one!

[@amara560]

Patiently or impatiently? I'm part of the latter xD

[@TiidiiLivingwithSabrina]

I got my hubby to start watching with me. We're so looking forward to seeing more!! This video literally made our week.

[@vintagecameragirl]

we upgraded our radiators in my parents house and in my room we found two tiny pieces of childrens wallpaper from the 1950s that had been kept concealed by the old radiator. i steamed them off the wall and framed them. the house was built 1950, so the paper had been put on when the house was new. the paper had a kitten and a girl horse riding lol

[@debbiegodinez2119]

That is such a cute idea! What an awesome way to preserve history, even if it’s the history of a child’s room

[@iamwindchakra]

Just having the doors was such a difference!

[@dominiqueespinosa7789]

yes! THIS IS JUST THE TYPE OF CONTENT WE NEEEDD! Im a teacher and I went to my school this morning to pick up all of my things. Not going to see my students till ? idk? But I am putting away things and organizing my home office/classroom. Thank you for being "next" to me while I do this :)

[@TheSorryGirls]

[@connormanis2556]

Dominique Espinosa OMG OUR SCHOOL IS CLOSED FOR THE YEAR

[@SimplyRefreshing]

Came here to comment this exact same sentiment! You said it perfectly! I work in a non profit currently dealing with all of this, watching list on my lunch break right now, definitely the highlight of my day :)

[@04issy25]

You look like my favourite teacher when I was younger hahh

[@dominiqueespinosa7789]

@@04issy25 haha thank you.

[@kenziek9258]

Custom made doesn’t necessarily mean more expensive! I’m a kitchen and bathroom cabinet and closet designer and usually going to local custom shops is significantly less expensive than California closets, Costco, IKEA, etc.!!

[@mary78880]

Commercial Interior Designer here! I agree, depending on the situation sometimes custom is quite a bit cheaper!

[@yogawithkathleen1181]

My kitchen and bathroom were so much cheaper when I looked at Ikea than the custom stuff I looked at and the look was almost identical to what I wanted. My designer was really surprised at price/quality too. The money we saved paid for new light fixture in the dining room and paint for the bedroom!

[@karissaphillips8812]

Watching all the ads because I know home renos are EXPENSIVE.

[@claudiafernandes6920]

I had none

[@stephanieraymoure5886]

Basements are by nature darker. I'm sure with your interior design prowess, it'll be great!! (I'd be more concerned with low ceilings but I'm a little claustrophobic)

[@cynthiat6505]

I was thinking the same thing. I need room above my head to breathe easy.

[@itsmints]

also showering with low headroom is not at all good for washing your hair :p might need a shower stool lol

[@TheMadieyTaylor]

people like me who have google homes appreciate you turning the audio down when you said “hey google”😍😍

[@alexhelme853]

You should get one of those ikea window that’s just like a diffused light box that goes on the wall for basements. I’ve also seen people diy them with old tv screens. Might add some “natural” light down there!

[@lng2750]

You've come so far from your DIY faux exposed brick walls 😂 That wall looks gorgeous! Also, I love the bathroom tiles! The texture and shine definitely make the room seem bigger! So excited for the next episode!!!

[@melanievalvin6145]

I love "Making home", it's just great seeing all the progress being made and all of it coming together. Can't wait for the next episode!

[@alixfalconer9489]

I think my favourite part of your videos is when you guys learn new skills (like removing the dry wall to expose the brick) It's so much fun to watch you guys learn and teach at the same time :)

[@7sevendaysara]

Woooow I can imagine how overwhelming but also so rewarding is this process

[@tiffanychloeramos2962]

I'm crying 😭. Seeing how Kelsey's dream coming to life little by little. 💕 So proud of her. This maybe just an episode of makeover to us subscribers, but for her it's a journey of her dream coming true. Can't wait to see that day of kelsey saying "welcome to my home!" 💚❤️

[@lindap9079]

"I just want it to be done" I can relate. in 2018 I had my home updated for the first time since it was built in 1976. I was quoted 3 months, it took 6. I camped in the back yard for much of that time. My covered back porch made living outside possible. All my meals were prepared on a propane burner and in my toaster oven. A tent was my "bedroom" They worked on the laundry room last so could wash clothes and I had the utility sink to do dishes in. it was a fun adventure for a while but as the weeks passed I was SO ready for it to be completed. In the end any inconvenience was just that, and the finished product was well worth the wait.

[@lushiousification]

Linda P we renovated our deck into a new playroom, we were told 8 weeks TOPS worst case scenario, it took about a year 🤦🏻‍♀️

[@sarahlongduriyang8559]

Justin... killing it with the editing... small details just make the whole experience more fun and enjoyable. Wow, the exposed brick looks soo good!!

This is what I needed right now

[@jamie5haw204]

I just LOVE your positive attitude!!!!! It radiates!!! Your love for peeling the glue off each tile, "I love it"...amazing!!! Most people don't love mundane tasks, but I relate to you, I love it as well!!! If it is to be peeled off, I am peeling it off!!

[@RelatablyRational]

Stay Safe Kelsey,Becky,Crew and your Families 💕 Thank you for the content at the right time ... Take care dear subscriber friends & family ❤️

[@mpchevanel]

I am litteraly smiling. I renovated my house years ago and I love it so much. So much stress, too many decisions but so worth it. Watching this series makes me feel nostalgic. Sending you a lot of love ❤️

[@kcorpz]

I've been waiting for this episode. I keep searching on KZbin to see if I missed an episode. I'm glad you uploaded a new episode!

[@ElizAbeth-xq4il]

It would have been cool to do frosted glass for the top 1.5 foot of the walls so light can cross rooms so it's not so dark and closed in.

[@mollydahl-jochim1422]

This series is the best!! Love what you're doing with the space - this will be such a gorgeous and stylish home when it's done! Def made the right call on the brick + accent walls - and that tile is insanely good! ❤

[@vlogsolutelyjen3859]

Ugh dreaming over the notion of a wet bath style bathroom. Loving the vibe so far!!!

[@Meganimalover]

Can we all appreciate that she muted the “hey google?” THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! I swear my google mini takes every opportunity to say something 😂

[@31mcml]

Kelsey, I can only imagine what it must be like to make your house into your own home. I bought a house 2.5 years ago and hoped to do so much of it diy. However, I have multiple sclerosis and severe nerve facial pain on the right side of my head and face and have struggled with these chronic illnesses and thus have not been able to do what I have wanted to do to make my house a home7. Watching this series in particular and the channel as whole has allowed me to live vicariously through you. And this coronavirus has not helped due to my MS and asthma. Therefore, thank you for the channel, it's diy components, and, of course, this making your house a home, Kelsey. Please keep the videos coming especially as we are home bound through at least April. Loving what you are doing!!!!

[@TheSorryGirls]

thank you so much and best of luck with your own home! ❤️

[@katymaloney]

The tiles are amazing, they have that Rae Dunn vibe, I loooove love love that kind of perfection in imperfection, wabi sabi vibey feel, it's cozy and clean, but still textured!

[@misslyntheena]

Chipping of the paint and wallpaper looks sooo satisfying! I would’ve done it for you, always loved removing the wallpaper in our house 🏡

[@SchatTreasure]

You looked legit worried in this Kelsey, hope things are ok! Even though times are crazy atm.

[@katietatey]

Oh Kelsey, it's going to be GORGEOUS. I can't wait to see more. The tile is great and so are the floors! I have a small bathroom and did a lot of subway tile, to the ceiling around the tub/shower and then as wainscoting. The only thing I regret is not getting darker grout.

[@JessTester]

Exposing the brick was such a good idea. It looks awesome! Can't wait to see how it looks painted.

[@ellymacrae792]

This series just makes me so excited for when I'll have a future home of my own to bust up and fix up exactly how I want it! Loving this series so much, good work Kelsey and team!!😊

[@KatherineTheGr8t]

*So glad you showed us that you physically checked out the egress windows.* It's definitely something other new homeowners should do regardless of whether it's living space or just utilities. I applaud what you're doing for your own safety, the safety of your viewers and for the future homeowners of your property. Kudos

[@mozartstreet]

your channel is what keeps me sane and motivated to do things in this #socialdistancing time.. thank you ❤️ this house will turn out so amazing

[@chanteezie]

I love this series so much. It’s so helpful to see how someone else my age is tackling a home renovation. I’m hoping this will be me in a year or two :)

[@pmorganworkshop]

Yay Kelsey! Your space is looking amaaazing! You mentioned that you find inspiration when you go to restaurants, I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND that you check out the upstairs washrooms at Planta! (Bay Station, Vegan). So gorgeous!

[@camper800]

So excited for you! Love the white tile you chose, love that you will do a light grout. Closet doors look fab!

[@faidaufaira]

this is by far my most anticipated series of yoursss!!! i really like major changes and this series is giving me that! looking forward for the next video!

Clicking on them ads coz I want her to make this renovation exactly the way she wants to. Ya'll should do it too to support her!

[@leadupont8588]

Kelsey sees her basement with the drywall up for the first time and her first reaction ? Climb and evacuate from the bathroom window 😂😂😂 ''I'm a skinny legend!" 🤣

[@chloep2187]

I too was confused but I think there are some safety rules about windows in a bedroom having to be big enough so that you can climb out of them in the event of a fire, but I don't know where I heard that so don't quote me.

[@seanmorgan2356]

@@chloep2187 Yes, she used the correct word 'egress'. Fire safety codes in the US, especially from basements, have to big enough for an adult to easily climb through and not be trapped inside.

[@corinnelsmith]

Thank u for this. I just sat down to watch something and I realized during this quarantine, that your content really is my favorite. I think you girls are great at what you do and you’re also just wholesome people too.

[@javierafigueroamoraga8316]

“Hey, google” on low volume was very considerate lol 😂 💕

No I love the tile everywhere!!! Easier to clean. In my old apartment the bathroom had no window and the ceiling was just nasty and some mold was there 😩

[@tessawatson5588]

I’m going back and watching all of these and it’s so interesting to see how much you’ve learnt now. You talked about having to get custom made robe doors which I’m sure is something you’d do yourself now. So cool!

[@anagabrielacuervo5760]

Hey Kelsey, it is a great choice to have light colored grout (idk how to spell it hehe english is my 2nd language). But the reason for that is that it is important to be able to tell if there is moss growing in the small dents between the tiles. A great idea also is to coat it with a sealant. this usually lasts about a year. Great content!! Stay awesome girls :D
