[@KeepingItMille]

Wowzer! Everything turned out so great!! Love the door and the black accents and more modern lighting. What a fantastic project. Your home looks phenomenal!

[@wandabell2120]

Jessica, everything looks fabulous! The color of the house, the trim, and all of the various accessories and textures of the flower pots, took the home to another level. The removal of the shutters was a game changer! The black door adds a level of elegance to the home. Girl you all did so good! Shout out to Mark, Gonzales, and your sister for the part they played as well. I appreciate you taking us along during this process. You have given me so many ideas. I cannot wait to see which project you will tackle next. God Bless You and Your Family and I will see you in the next one.

[@jessicapayne]

Thank you!!!!! This was such a sweet message! This exterior project took all of the real estate in my brain - it's all I could think about for the last 2 weeks. I wanted to love it and was so scared that I would make the wrong decision. I didn't want to have any regrets. Once i told myself "no matter what you choose, it's going to be an amazing upgrade" I finally felt at ease and I'm so happy with the result. Even if I would have chosen the green, it still would have looked incredible - but I really do love the blue. I really do feel like removing the shutters upgrades the house a bit. They didn't have a purpose and like I said in the video, the blue and almond gives enough pop on the house, that a third color wasn't needed. I'm so glad that you agree with the decisions made - I'm so in love with every single detail!

[@jamalaw]

It came absolutely beautiful! I had no idea you could paint vinyl.. thank you for sharing that. Perfect color combination and the black door was the best decision.

[@gwendolynmiller2190]

What a huge difference your home is absolutely beautiful

[@wendyb73]

How have I just now found your channel??? LOVE your content!!! Currently binge watching all of your previous episodes 😊

[@billiehicks6587]

The Almond color Slays❤…

[@SUPWA21]

I was lying in bed this morning and a notification popped up and it was today’s episode! I hit the button and sat steadfast in bed to see the reveal…Damn! I must commend you guys for the phenomenal beauty that has become a totally new look…Jessica you and Mark’s vision came to life…GORGEOUS! I really had to reserve judgement on the outside painting but to my surprise it looks amazing! Quite chic…it is so welcoming and looks so inviting and as well peaceful…I adore plants and flowers beautiful pots and baskets with plants…the work that you two have put into your home is nothing short of stunning…love it so much…I am a fan of wood stained doors and I truly think either wood or the black would have been fantabulous! Congratulations on finishing your project and I look forward to seeing you guys next week!

[@jessicapayne]

Thank you Jen - I really appreciate that! We have put endless hours of time turning this house into a home that we both love. It's one thing for us to make all these big decisions, but then to share it with the world and having to be open to other people's opinions is......well, overwhelming at times. So when the 2 align - our love for a decision we made, coupled with approval of everyone here on the channel, that just makes me the happiest. I had a vision, and it's pretty dang cool to see it all come together in real life! xoxo

[@SometimeAgo65]

You have such a cheerful and kind personality!! I wish I lived near you because I would love to go antique shopping, thrifting and just sharing all of the things we ladies love about decorating/gardening 😊❤ I'll just have to watch you on here

[@sherryryan4305]

Wow! Jessica!! Absolutely amazing transformation of the house. The blue is wonderful in every way. From front to back each space flows beautifully with comfort and charm. Each of the seating spaces offers shade, relaxation and welcoming to guest. A complete beauty!! The black front door is beautiful!! Enjoy!

[@jessicapayne]

Thank you!!!!!! Honestly, the black front door was the cherry on top of the cake for me. Once it was added, it just set everything else off. I really do love how everything turned out - what a fun project!!

[@billiehicks6587]

All great choices for the coordination of the baskets, greenery, and the color of the front door and light fixtures❤. It Slays❤.

[@janettsumlar7282]

Jessica, your house is gorgeous!!! Everything!!! Every detail, every plant, every color, all the furnishings and finishes just mesh so well together!!! Great job!!! I absolutely love it all!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@jessicapayne]

Thank youuuuu!!!! I absolutely love it and am so happy with all of the decisions we decided to make. It was stressful for sure, but now that it's over - I'm obsessed with it!

[@deborahfletcher1180]

Breathtaking! It turned out to be more amazing than I had pictured in my head. I could see your vision but you took it to perfection. The blue makes the house look grand. I am so happy for you and Mark. These projects are no small endeavor. Now you can take a deep breath; Oh, not so fast. You're doing floors. lol Thank you Jessica for letting us in your beautiful world!

[@markh2200]

Maybe someday she'll make a 'making of' or a 'behind the scenes' video. It could be interesting. Hint: It's amazing how different it is to not be able to enter the kitchen area or the only downstairs bathroom due to the construction going on with the flooring (that you'll see next week). We've had most of a week where just to wash my hands I have to go up a flight of stairs, and we've had some meals prepared in either a toaster oven or the gas grill outside (microwave is in the kitchen and we are not able to walk on the flooring until it's all done and the mortar and grout is fully dry). Thanks for watching, and thank you for your kind words!

[@jessicapayne]

Hahahahaha! All I was allowed was one deep breath - and now onto the next project. But I promise after that project, I'm going to veg out on the beach somewhere for several days! I'm so glad that you love it and that it turned out even better than you imagined it would be. We love it so much and now every time I walk outside, or drive up to the house - I smile and feel really proud. It was a long time coming, but it's finally done and couldn't love it more!

[@jujuanbrown]

The house 🏠 looks amazing, Jessica. You are so creative and talented. I need a Jessica in my life…sooo many ideas, sooo little time, and absolutely no will:(. Kudos to you and Mark…with help from your sister for a job well done:)!💖✨🫂💯

[@markh2200]

Everyone needs a Jessica!

[@lorrisell1]

I think I've been influenced!!!! 😍 This is beautiful!! It looks like an entirety different house. I love it ❤

[@billiehicks6587]

It’s so beautiful and the color and the trim colors together are FABULOUS.❤

[@jc428]

In the front door garden bed, try some low growing shrubs..like those blue spruce low level shrubs or any shrub that doesn't obstruct the view of your pretty front door area

[@jessicapayne]

I love that idea! The blue spruce could be really pretty there and give it some nice ground coverage. I agree, whatever it is, it can't obstruct the view of the porch - I love it too much for it to be hidden!! Thanks so much for taking time to comment with your suggestions!

[@Queenann06]

Love Love Love it all , I’m so happy for you guys it’s so nice and I’m sure you all feel great seeing it every time you pull up I absolutely love the planters you picked perfect pulling with the colors the light fixtures perfect enjoy enjoy enjoy your newly upgraded home this summer!!! The only thing that was missing from this video is a cocktail in ur hand sitting in the new chair at the end 🤣🤣🤣🤣 coffee or a cocktail is your sit pretty signature living a well lived life ❤

[@markh2200]

You are absolutely right! She (we, in fact) have been burning the midnight oil to get everything finished, and she/we have not really been able to sit back and enjoy a cocktail on the porch while sitting in rocking chairs! (plus it's been really hot here in NC this past week or two)

[@Queenann06]

@@markh2200 well please have some very soon and each of you have one for me as I can’t have any right now 🥲 enjoy it in the fullest boy oh boy the summer nights to come enjoy laugh a lot eat burgers and fries and enjoy all the tea cocktails 🍹 and more !!!💕

[@jessicapayne]

Hi friend!!!! So happy that you love it all. It's been a LONG time coming and I couldn't be happier with how it turned out! Oh how I wish I could have prepared a cocktail that day - but in addition to it being so crazy hot, we've been without a kitchen for a week because of the tile work - and guess where all my liquor is???!!! Rookie move, lol!!!!! But now that we'll soon be getting our kitchen back, a cocktail on the front porch is happening for sure! So stay tuned for next week - I'll make up for the missing cocktail this week! 🤣

What a transformation! Everything from the paint color to the plants and furniture looks amazing! Great job JAM!

[@jessicapayne]

Thank youuu!!! It's amazing to see how everything that was in my head come to life right before my eyes. What a fun (yet very stressful) project this was. Now it's time to take the projects inside because this heat is about to wear me out and it's only June!

[@yaamo]

Sooo beautiful! I Love it! Have you considered doing interior designing as a side gig? You're talented 🙂 And kudos to Mark for doing an amazing job!

[@robincharmagne3137]

It looks so pretty Jessica! Now you have me thinking about ditching my shutters too. The black door is the icing. Y'all really did a great job and made some good decor decisions.

[@jessicapayne]

Thank you!!!! Right? I was like, why are they there? What are they providing? And once we took them off, that sealed the deal. I love the house so much better without - I don't miss them one bit!

[@RissaO1617]

Yes, You did it! Congratulations sis, the house looks absolutely beautiful! GOD Bless you and Mark! Great job!! 💃

Your house looks beautiful and I love the color chose and the planters just sets it off very beautifully 🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@jessicapayne]

Thank you!!! I stressed myself out so much over the color of the house. I knew back when I first painted the blue sample on the house that that was it - but I kept second-guessing that decision. I'm so glad that I finally let go, and went with it because it really does look so good!!

[@TableTalkwTraceyMarie]

3…2…1….No lights! I bust out laughing when that happened! I told you the gray blue would be amazing! Everything looks beautiful!

Hahahaha!!!! Oh my goodness - we laughed so hard about this. And yes you were right! I don't know why I stressed myself out the way I did - but I'm so happy that we chose the right color. I love it so much!

Absolutely Gorgeous!! Please let us know how the Solar lights work after a while. I really like those and would love to get some. I'll let you be the tester 😊❤

Hey Jessica! First time seeing your channel pop up and I subscribed. Yall's home is gorgeous! That blue is amazing! Everything looks so pretty. Great job! I hope you don't mind me saying this but, whatever you are doing in your life keep doing it. You are radiating an inner glow and a beautiful positive energy. I am looking forward to catching up on some past videos and watching your future videos as well. Have a beautiful blessed day. 🙏

[@scarletscorpiana8985]

So so so very pretty!!! I voted for the blue. The almond was a perfect choice I love the plants and planters. Glad you ditched shutters. Fabulous job. ❤🎉❤

[@jessicapayne]

Thank youuuu!!!!! The blue was the clear front runner from the beginning - I don't know why I stressed myself out like I did, lol!!! And I completely agree with the shutters - it was time for them to go. I'm so glad we made that decision!

[@sharonhopkins9982]

Wow, amazing! I love it, I know you all are so proud, good job!

[@jessicapayne]

We are sooo so proud! It took a long time to get here, but it was worth the wait. 😊

[@SheilaMiller-od7qn]

I was so excited about the exterior home make over because I knew it would be beautiful. You have exceeded my expectation - your makeover is totally Awesome!!!!!!

[@jessicapayne]

Awwww I love that! What more could I ask for than that?!! 🥰 And honestly, I would have to agree. I've had pictures in my head of what it could look like - but I didn't image it would look like this! I'm just so happy with every single detail!

[@teresahalliday3680]

It looks STUNNING!!!! The colors are perfect (the almond trim is so much more elegant than white would be). No shutters is definitely the way to go. The styling is just perfection and I love the black furniture on the porch...such a nice place to have a cocktail when it's NOT 97 degrees!. (we are getting that weather this week in central NYS) It is all just gorgeous!!!

[@jessicapayne]

Thank you Teresa!!!!!! I'm so happy that you love it as much as we do! The almond makes all of the difference, right? I was a little worried at first that it came off as yellow - but luckily once it settled, it's the perfect color. And I can't wait to have a cocktail out there once it's not 97 degrees. It's during these times that I truly question why I live in North Carolina!!!

[@francinearaujo3070]

Jessica! I'll say it again, Sunday's are my favorites!! I just can't wait to see what you are sharing! the house looks absolutely beautiful!! and HEY!!! looks like you reached 5k subscribers!! whoop whoop!!! 🥂🍸🍷🥃

Oh my goodness!!!!! Thank you for letting me know - I had no clue! 😆 Guess that shows how busy things have been around here, I haven’t been looking - but how exciting!!! And thank you so much for watching - I LOVE that Sundays are your favorite and I have a little something to do with that! 😉 I appreciate you so!!!

[@nikkiep23]

Happy Sunday Jessica! Everything turned out beautifully. I love the basket planters and the jute accents.

[@jessicapayne]

Thank you!!!!! 😁 I love those touches as well - I feel like they brought a little warmth to the space!

Thank you!!!! And a labor of love is right - so much work, but worth every second and penny! 😆

[@tatteredtammy]

I think your tricking us!! Lol! Looks like a totally different house. Beautiful❣️ love the black door and other black accents. Looks so good.

[@jessicapayne]

Lol!!! Right? It truly doesn't feel like the same house. How paint can completely transform a house is mind-blowing. I was really resistant to the black door, but like I said - once it was painted, I was like "that's it"!!!! So happy that you love the transformation - now it's time to go back inside because it's way too hot to be outside working on projects! See you next week!

[@janikiawoods8486]

Its absolutely gorgeous..❤

[@jessicapayne]

Thank youuuuu!!!! I'm so obsessed with it. I just keep smiling every time I go outside!

[@lorettaknox154]

Yes❤ The house looks amazing. It's classy. That blue took it to a whole new level. It looks majestic like House Beautiful. I love it. I think for that small area you could relocate the bushes to another area and replace them with three topiaries. You could trim the area with red bricks or those grayish rocks. The topiaries could be centered in the middle. They could be round at the top. That might work or standard bushes or a rose bush with white or sterling roses. Just a thought. A Hydrangea bush might look nice too. Everything looks beautiful.

[@markh2200]

Hi Loretta! I had to look up the definition of 'topiary'. I've heard the word plenty of times, but I realized I did not know what you meant. I have since Googled it and it makes sense. I am not sold on the Hydrangea but my reasoning is that the ones that I've had in the past tend to get really large, really quickly. We have a couple of 2-ball or 3-ball topiary bushes in the backyard, one on either side of the shed, and those specific ones might be too tall for the front of the house. But, I get the idea as they visually are interesting! We have a great garden center around here (called Kiefer Nursery) and I bet we could ask them to show us some ideas for one or more topiary plants. Good suggestion, and thank you!

[@jessicapayne]

Hi Loretta!!! Those are great ideas! I would LOVE a hydrangea bush in the front - but the one that we have in the back yard is massive and I fear that it may cover up the view to the porch. Otherwise, I would 100% put hydrangeas in that area as they are my favorite flower. I do like the idea of 3 small bushes that we keep maintained so they do grow too large. We'll see what we come up with but that area has me stumped. I also love your idea of adding bricks or rocks like we put around the mailbox! Thank you so much (as always) for watching and taking the time to comment with your suggestions. You're the best!

[@denisefoggie6997]

Boxwoods are good bushes for the front they are slow growers but are great for a great manicured look

[@markh2200]

Jessica and I don't fully agree on choice of plants yet. We have several boxwoods in the back and I'm voting for something a bit more interesting than a boxwood for the front. I don't know what that would be (what would be more interesting, won't grow too tall, and won't require too much maintenance?). I appreciate any and all suggestions, and so thank you for the suggestion. We'll see. Boxwoods remain a feasible option. I am less sold on it than Jessica at this time.

[@jessicapayne]

I agree that boxwoods are a great option, we would just need to keep them low so they won't hide the beautiful porch. The one great thing about boxwoods is they require very little care - outside of the occasional "hair trim" lol!!! We'll see what we end up with - we may have to call in the professionals for this one! Thanks so much for your suggestions!!

[@marianwylie2523]

Hello 👋🏾🤗 1st. Viewer, Is this Durham NC ?

[@markh2200]

It is! Familiar with the area?

[@marshajones8950]

Hi, your new home color looks amazing. Suggestion…I would like to see more content in the videos and less of the long introductions and verbal conversations prior to the content footage.

[@jessicapayne]

Thank you!!! I so love how everything turned out - night and day difference for sure. In terms of the flow of my videos, the reason why I selected to share my content on KZbin is because I love long-form content. I'm a story teller, I'm obsessed with documentaries, and I'm a sucker for details. I want to know the why, the how, the when, the who - all of it. Because of that passion, that is why my videos are a little longer. I know that Instagram and TikTok has trained our brains into thinking that we can only consume very short bits of content - but for me, that just isn't what I love. I'm the one on TikTok that will listen to the full 10-minute video - because I truly want to know every single detail. I do, however, try my hardest to keep things as brief as I can - but in terms of the long intro and outro of this video - I felt it to be important to keep all of the details in. And if people only wanted to see the before and afters, then they always have the option to fast-forward if they chose to. My hope is that my community will want to have those details, but I completely understand if you just want to scrub through to the end. I hope in the future that time will allow me to also create YT shorts or IG reels. That way if you just want to see the before and afters you can see that content quickly - and then if you want all the details, of course there is KZbin. I do appreciate your suggestion and hope this explanation gives some insight into my thinking on the other side of the screen. Regardless, thank you for being here! ❤

[@bloorainz]

@@jessicapayne Jessica please don’t change a thing! I love long form content here on KZbin especially your long form content.
