Getting Started on my Living Room/ Entryway Makeover| Part 1

Hey guys this week I got started on my living room and entryway makeover. This living room makeover has been a long time coming. I've done lots of projects to slowly transform this space over the years. But I also knew I was avoiding committing to doing an actual makeover. This week I rolled up my sleeves and got to work painting and working on the trim. I also installed a seamless air vent cover to take an unsightly vent and make it look more disguised. I absolutely love the progress I made so far and can't wait to share more.

I don’t understand why some channels take off and get a ton of subs and others just chug along slowly. Your content is just as creative as other creators who have hundreds of thousands of subs/views and I don’t understand what they do differently or why KZbin pushes them out in the algorithm more than smaller/upcoming creators. Anyway, just wanted to say I feel you deserve more than KZbin is giving you 🩷

[@MaileyElaine]

Haha if only I knew how to mysterious KZbin algorithm worked! Thank so much for watching and all the support it really means so much to me. 🥰

You never fail to inspire to me! And there are no rules in good design. I absolutely love “modern craftsman”.

[@MaileyElaine]

Oh thank you so much! And yes definitely no rules so glad you like the new trim

[@pamelafox7677]

Wowza Miley! This is gorgeous. Love the balance you achieved with architectural interest and simple detail. Love your subtle color contrast too. Great work!

[@MaileyElaine]

Thank you so glad you like it! I'm so glad you like all the details I thought long and hand about how this trim haha

[@catherinethorington3452]

I really like the corbels. I bought a set and didn't know what to do with them. You have inspired me!

[@MaileyElaine]

Amazing!!! I'm now obsessed with corbels and want everyone to put them in their houses haha. So glad I could inspire you thanks so much for watching!!! 🥰

[@barbaraehrensberger8186]

Wow, it looks so good. I love the addition of the corbels. Great job!

@@MaileyElaine it gets addicting! I have them in my home too. I saw window treatment corbels, never knew existed but now desperately want to put on all my windows!

Hi Mailey you’re looking beautiful as always! 😊 you did a great job on this living room make over! It looks like it took a lot of time and effort and I think you did a great job! You used ladders and paint cans and you readjusted the walls! I feel you did an awesome job! You’re so cute also! ☺️ keep up the goodwork with your videos! You have been putting out consistent DIY content that’s been fun and I respect you for that! 😊

[@MaileyElaine]

Thank you!

[@mrwii5741]

[@robfisher7241]

Corbels give much more definition of space, love the new Sleek modern color and design of the entry way, it really does tie all spaces together.

[@MaileyElaine]

I totally agree! I'm so glad you love all the updates. I can't wait to share more!!

[@shellylemons]

I love the corbels!! My brother is buying a new house and I will be helping him fix it up.

Thank you so much! 🥰

[@sharons8690]

as soon as i saw a new video from you i immediately liked it. and i’m not wrong. love the trim. i had them put in my upstairs doorways when we had to replace all our doors. i live in a “center hall colonial” that doesn’t have a drop of colonial in it. but i love the trim and i’m hoping to change out the rest of my doorways and windows to match. looking forward to seeing what else you’re planning to do

[@MaileyElaine]

Oh than you so much! and OMG a colonial with not a drop of colonial details in it that's a crime haha! I bet the new doors look amazing! Can't wait to share all the projects I have planned thanks so much for watching 🥰

[@cyndij8312]

The doorway trim looks outstanding painted in that color. I hate ladders, too. I'm always afraid that I'll forget I'm on a ladder and just step off.

[@MaileyElaine]

Oh I'm the same way! I don't mind be a few steps up on a ladder but a ladder right next to stair I just get a little light headed. I'm so glad you like the trim!

I don't even like the 2-step step stool! Was on it yesterday cleaning a fan and felt like I was going to fall off. Once, my cat was lying on the first step unbeknownst to me. I felt her fur as I was stepping down and had to step down to the ground. ​@MaileyElaine

Nice choice on the painted trim.

[@MaileyElaine]

Thank you so much!

[@judelopez8564]

I too am afraid of heights. I switched over to step ladders with handrails. Mine is about 20 feet, but they come in many heights. It won’t work for everything, but for most things, it really makes high work bearable for me.

[@MaileyElaine]

Oh I should totally look into some sort of higher step ladder I really think that would help! Thanks so much for watching!

[@hope2859]

Great job Mailey!!! Looks amazing!!

I absolutely love your trim work! I did the craftsman style trim in my bathroom, i did the door casing face and the baseboards and i did the square endings as well. Except i didnt add the extra boards at the top the way you did. I just decided one day i was going to take a stab at it and went and baught a Metabo miter saw and the lumber i needed and went ham. I made a few mistakes, but im very pleased with how it turned out. I now have 3 bedrooms, the whole downstairs to do and i cant wait to get started on it. Im brand new to wood working and have learned so much from your videos and from other KZbinrs as well. Lots of channels out there, but none have your character and your charm to match your skill level. I honestly wish i had someone like you who lived close that i can ask questions. Thank you for your hard work and thank you for being here. Im looking forward to your next episode!

[@MaileyElaine]

Omg that's amazing! I bet all your trim looks wonderful. I love to hear stories like that when people just decided they can do it... because you can! and I'm so glad I could help and I'm really glad you learned something from my videos. That means to the world to me to hear! I'm hoping one day I can hit the road and help my subscribers with their own projects that my dream. Thanks so much for watching and for all the support it truly means so much!!! 🥰

[@gailbradford305]

Hey, those door casing look great but now your front door needs to match so don’t stop yet. Keep up the good work, kiddo!

[@MaileyElaine]

Yeah this is just part one of a very long makeover process. I have so much planned for this room 🥰

[@katiecasey5709]

Yes, when I'm doing a project, I always think of what Miracle Max in Princess Bride said (paraphrase), " Don't rush a miracle. You rush a miracle, you get rotten miracles."

[@MaileyElaine]

Man now you made me want to watch The Princess Bride.. I love that movie and that is so true!! We don't want any rotten miracles around here haha

[@lshimon4]

I do love that movie and quote

[@kassandramarie007]

You should paint the back of your front door that same beige color you did on the two doorways in your living room.

[@MaileyElaine]

That’s the plan! 🥰 you read my mind haha

Hi from Croatia, Europe! I am your new subscriber. I read comments that your channel is not visible enough on the YT platform. I'm sorry. I see that you are smart, precise, resourceful, positive, persistent... It would be nice if you got confirmation on YT with a large number of subscribers, but... maybe that's not important. Just keep going, enjoy your creativity and share it with us. Time will tell what the outcome will be. ❤

What software you used for your design?

[@MnMDesignStyle]

What does the other side of the trim look like? Can you make the back match the front?

[@MaileyElaine]

One the one door that I had to remove everything I made them match. Once I get to my part two of my kitchen revamp I will also make it match. 🥰 I'll be doing this to all the trim around each door in my house... just a slowly!
