HOW TO MAKE YOUR HOME FUNCTION BETTER

[@janealexandrakessler9693]

I’m in awe of your ability to visualize a solution and then build it.

[@elisabethsingletary2998]

I can’t believe how great you are at building things! The bathroom drawers was my favorite diy.

[@mangopuppybaby]

You did a wonderful job. My friend lives in a home that was built in the 70’s and her house already came with most of these built ins. It’s amazing the nice cabinets homes used to have before builders got cheap on us and cut corners.

[@claudinekey4940]

This is the first time I see your Chanel and the im blown away by your home improvements and how well you present them. You gave me so many great ideas. Thanks for showing us your projects. And keep going, you’re a natural!

[@lindaroyal8161]

All your storages solutions are great. The LR built-ins for sure a winner. I like how all the storage you added, not only add tons of storage, but look like they've always been there. You've done a great job to add so much storage. Nicely done!

[@Es24688]

We just took our children’s closet doors off completely. Makes their smaller rooms feel more open and prevents them from just throwing things in the closet and shutting the door on the mess.

[@katherinecarmona7848]

Might sound weird but I love your voice!!! So soothing and soft spoken !!! English is my second language and I can actually understand you. I’m so tired of people talking with the grasp voice, they all sound the same and some do it so deep that I can’t barely understand what they are saying.

Her family is very fortunate! I'm living in a small rental, so I am not the demographic for this video at all. However, i couldn't look away because of all the value this video provides. The inner closet in the daught's room at 11:46 *chef's kiss*

[@vjsimpson5237]

I'll never be as handy as you, but sooo many great ideas here. So often we accept things the way they are and it doesn't even occur to us to think creatively to make things function better for us. I'm going to go walk around my house now to look for places to improve lol. ❤

[@heatherwhite2788]

I did a gut renovation of my bathroom, and had two hidden cabinets with shallow shelves built into the paneling. I also had a shelf made of the scrap marble and installed on brackets between the medicine cabinet and sink. It looks gorgeous, but more importantly I can store my hairspray, makeup brushes, lipgloss, etc there… things I reach for all the time.

[@c.h.9193]

So tickled to hear you bought the Mongolian Cashmere Blanket. That is the very best. Have you ever checked out the Story regarding that. How the Sheepherders were not doing well. And 4 guys from America came in and helped them out. Got rid of the middleman and put the profits in the pockets of the families. Great story!

[@BelovedSarai]

I am so impressed with your skills that if you lived near me, I would become your apprentice! Man I wish I could do all this building and woodworking stuff. *sigh*

[@barbstormo7030]

It was so fun seeing all the changes you have made to your home! You have done such an amazing job! I can't wait to see more!

[@jenw5854]

I would love it if you added links to the videos for the projects you mentioned. I’m newer to your channel and would love to see how you switched the sliding doors to French doors.

[@singerjo5791]

She put hinges on the sides and pull door knobs to the outside.

[@maliaferron7025]

Yes please!!

[@green5sing]

Seriously... My favorite channel. Empowering, creative, calm, encouraging, and educational! Thank you for all you do! You have helped me so much to do DIYs in my home!!!❤❤❤

[@KelseyRomitoDIY]

Wow, thank you! I wish we could post pics in the comments because I would love to see everyone’s projects!

[@charlsiepecoraro]

You are so inspiring! I ordered a similar spice jar set however I put them in a drawer in alphabetical order. Saves loads of time! Thanks for sharing all of your projects!

[@tinaoakland3224]

You are a warrior when it comes to carpentry!

[@heldforeverbygod]

Your familiarity and adeptness with power tools is amazing. Good for you!

[@KelseyRomitoDIY]

Thanks so much!

[@lorihughes8873]

Lots of ideas! We are going to redo our pantry and utility/laundry room. Going to go back and watch the videos again for ideas 😊

[@christinafoushee509]

Great ideas! You are so clever. I love all these ideas to make our homes function efficiently. I’ve always wanted power tools but just haven’t taken the time or energy to learn how to build things myself. You inspire me to keep that dream alive. Thank you!

[@cindynoscarramirez5481]

Wow you are the confirmation I needed… I thought I was out of line when I think of custom furniture and projects… I try to find already made but the right dimensions and looking good and price wise is custom… I need to get better at woodworking though. Thank you!

[@inspired9239]

👏BRAVO👏👏 First time to your channel and I find your visionary qualities and ability to follow-through on those ideas with your talent to build is absolutely AMAZING. I see in your future, Kelsey, as you continue building your channel, tutorials to further monetize your time and efforts. That would certainly help women like me to learn what tools are necessary and all the how-to's to make it happen for our personal dead spaces. Right now, every single room in my small 1500/sf home decries "make me functional too." Your idea to convert a vanity without drawers into a vanity with drawers far more functional. That was the best idea for me in this video because I have always wished I had drawers not realizing that was even possible. I thought I would have to replace the vanity in its entirety just to have a drawer or two. Thank you for sharing!💝💖 Much love to you from Texas.

[@jenjenhope]

Great job Mama!!!❤

[@alicepalka9547]

First time watching you create things! I am so impressed by your ability….. keep up the great work !!

[@maureenshaw737]

You’re so clever at making things ❤

[@tabithaelliott6855]

DIY excellence. Wow. Looks amazing.

[@jusmith6099]

You are great, so inspirational,well done! Wish I had the confidence to use power tools and have a go at making some of the things you have

[@debbieedwards635]

You are a really talented mum, your family are soʻ lucky. Well done 😂

[@sallykbc]

You are so amazingly creative. Love the work u done to your living room. Appreciate if you can tell me what’s the brand of the electric fire place u installed. Hope to hear from u soon.

[@kathyhoward9182]

Hi Kelsey, I think I have watched each and every one of these videos and watched you transform each of these rooms into one beautiful home! Keep up the good work and keep the videos coming! TFS

[@KelseyRomitoDIY]

Thanks so much for sticking with me!

[@littlemisswowzers7188]

I wish I was like this...I can't even measure correctly and I don't own a saw if I over measured. I feel useless...:(. Gonna try tho ❤

[@gailbradford305]

Can I share a storage place that almost no one uses but many do have in their homes? The space inside closets above the door. I added 6” long peg rack that extend past the door frame. We use it for everything like gift wrap rolls, caps, walking sticks, rifles, tied lace sneakers, cowboy hat,etc, etc, etc.

[@KelseyRomitoDIY]

Great idea!

[@jazpoop7976]

Great ideas! Swapping out our little kids wardrobes is so time consuming so when I do it I go all in for a whole day. I'll prep boxes labeled for each new upcoming size. Even if a box is practically empty, I still have it and label it so it's ready to be filled. When they grow out of the current size, the next is washed and ready to be hung up. It becomes a chore only every six months instead of every other month!

[@carmenjuarez1219]

I need to adapt the closet door changes! Also, the retractable hose

[@juliaharries9046]

Hi Kelsey. I’ve only just found your videos. I love the way your home looks, and I’m in awe of your ability to make and build things! I like to do some crafts and design in my own home, but as I live in London my home is much smaller, however the ideas you have are really inspiring. I will be moving soon, so will have a blank canvas to put some of your ideas to work. Thank you. Jooles in London 🇬🇧

[@Pausereflectandbreathe]

Wow! That’s impressive! I wish I can do the same thing like you did. Our house lack storage and I mean a lot of storage. Thank you for sharing your projects! This is very inspirational! ❤❤❤

[@ACrase9]

Wow, your work is so impressive! Totally motivates me. Thank you 😊

[@MultiLadybug72]

Just found your channel and I am SO impressed with your carpentry skills! I have subscribed so I can check out your previous videos for inspiration for our home.

[@cathypenn1073]

Great video, how did you learn to do the diy’s?

[@pinschrunner]

I got attacked by a neighborhood pitbull last year and I still have hand, elbow, shoulder, and neck issues. I like the idea of the retractable hose and think it would help me daily as I atruggle to re-hand the hose and drag it with one arm. And yes, I am a fan of build-ins but they need to be planned as u say

[@KelseyRomitoDIY]

Sorry that happened to you!

[@joancastaneda8137]

Always love everything you do

[@CathyColegrove-u5e]

Oh my goodness Kelsey! What can you not do?! I watch all Your videos and am Always impressed but gosh seeing what you’ve done to improve your home all At once is AMAZING!

[@KelseyRomitoDIY]

Thank you so much!!

[@vickigreen2981]

Have watched all these projects with you before but loved seeing them in this category of thinking of our homes

[@DebLL357]

My first time watching one of your videos, and wow! You are amazing at building things! Every project you shared is so beautiful! Great job! New subscriber 😊🙌

[@Mpw9876]

This is so impressive. Just wow.

[@cyndij8312]

All great things. I want to go back and watch some of the older videos since I think I started following you when you redid the upstairs hallway. A couple of additional suggestions are pull-out trays in the lower kitchen cabinets. And a between the wall studs pantry as a way to find space. My dad did the pantry for me and it seriously is the best thing ever. I actually prefer it over a walk-in pantry for food storage.

[@KelseyRomitoDIY]

Awesome tips!!!

[@naomirichard1570]

Wow, I'm super amazed by your talents and by your vision. Those cabinets in the living room look so good as well as everything else!!

[@snorlund1]

You’re very talented! Storage cabinets are so important!

[@SUN7SHINE25]

Lov all your functional updates..wish i could build things Thank you for inspiration 😊 everything well designed

[@naturelove2991]

You're amazing Kelsey, would you share where I can purchase the parts to build the bathroom drawers you made from just a cabinet with removal of the center piece to two drawers? starting at 6:ll on your video.

[@tracybarnes3086]

I thought I was pretty handy until I just found your channel, you are very talented, thanks for sharing.xx

[@cherylfavret1717]

Hi Kelsey, I just found you channel, I’m so happy about that. You’re amazing and I’m looking forward to more.

[@violetarada3368]

Wow you are very talented on building and details! Love your work

[@busyboy7635]

You make great videos. I like the true to life reality if them.

[@jessica4245]

Wow you are awesome at building things. The charging station in your entryway table is my favorite!

[@AnneMolina-c8c]

You are so incredibly talented! I LOVED this video. Thank you

[@KelseyRomitoDIY]

Thank you so much!

[@michelletennyson8535]

21:04 You asked what the marble thing was called you put one of the wooden shelves. It’s called a mortar and pestle. They’re used to mash/grind herbs, fruit peels, etc to bring out the essential oils, and flavor essences of herbs, fruit peelings (sometimes used in certain bar drinks too) and spices, in a natural way.

[@hcmangs3634]

Beautiful colors and wow, the cabinets look so professional!! What are the pain colors? Don’t have a video on making the cabinets and shelves? You make it look so easy, wow!! So impressive!

[@mistygeller3193]

What great ideas! And what a big impact too! Your living room looks amazing, very pretty and comfortable 😊 And your garage is a huge wow!! You can find everything, I have garage envy 😜 The laundry room is absolutely beautiful, that cabinet color is so nice!! And what a sweet mom 🥰 You have definitely made everything look so good and work better for your family. I am making mental notes already 😁

[@kmedlock5050]

Girrrl, you are amazing! 👏👏👏

[@denisegrise5848]

You are a rock star. I need to get brave and get a saw.😅

[@kathryngomez1344]

i absolutely love all of your projects! i think you are incredibly talented and id love to attempt woodworking, but i have zero clue where to start. birdhouses? a simple shelf? how did you start?

[@KelseyRomitoDIY]

Thank you so much! That’s exactly where I started- smaller craft type projects. If I messed up, it wasn’t a big deal and I could try again.

[@observer4497]

Kelsey, Your videos are always Phenomenal.. You pay such attention to detail and everything comes out fabulous!

[@mariatreloar9482]

I admire your abilities, bravo

[@joanreid2804]

You are so very talented! I would like to know how you learned your craft of wood working

[@marybollinger8668]

Very impressed with all you've done to your home. WIsh I could build like you do!

[@the1theresa]

GREAT! projects and ideas! Do you have more in depth tutorials of these and supplies you used? I want to duplicate so many of them! Thank you for sharing!!

[@TS-kl8zg]

You're clearly not just a pretty face! Thanks for being so inspiring for a fellow mom like myself.

[@rvassallo1671]

You are so talented to be able to make all those things from scratch. Everything looked great.

[@PROUDBEAUTIFUL]

The fridge storage was my favorite

[@shaunamunson6262]

Ok you’re a carpenter.. this isn’t my reality lol. You have done a beautiful job of it all in your space. ❤

[@lorinda_WI]

Amazing job! I’d put your talent right up there with the HGTV experts. 👏🏻

[@tsigereda-rose5534]

This video is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you!

[@tsigereda-rose5534]

Are you in Atlanta? I could use some help...

[@hollybingeman2290]

These shelves are exactly what I need in my office closet

[@mariawilliams1314]

So many great projects and ideas! 😊❤😊

[@KisnCozns51]

I'm curious, how long have you had the retractable hose and is it holding up well? Anything you would change about it? Thanks so much for your video! I gleaned a few ideas I hope to put in place soon, such as the shelves in the closet! Thanks again! Blessings!

[@ca6177]

Lots of good ideas! Thanks!

[@stephaniegunesch]

Hi Kelsey! I’m new to your channel with this video and it’s perfect! So relatable to see a beautiful and normal home and how you’ve maximized it for your family. We have 5 kids in 1900 sq feet and function is always top priority!

[@KelseyRomitoDIY]

Thank you so much!!

[@blancapantoja1824]

You truly have great ideas I’m new to your channel but I’m so happy I found you and all your creative and useful ideas God bless you❤

[@metalkingtohorses]

[@maryd253]

Wow! You’re amazing!

[@brendaallen7683]

I just happened upon your video and I really enjoyed it! Did you have construction/reno experience bc it seems that you can build almost ANYTHING!

[@eraber6738]

First-time viewer here! Just wanted to tell you how very pleasant and soothing your voice is!

[@KelseyRomitoDIY]

Thank you! ❤️

[@dboyd1651]

would love to see the sink counter transformation in the bathroom

[@phyllisoleary2742]

You are amazing, how did you learn how to do all that, did you go to carpenter’s school?

[@cynthiameinhardt3315]

Kelsey, I am brand new to your channel. Do you make all the cabinets by yourself?

[@dorinatudisco1308]

Really great tips. Thanks!

[@4everyoung24]

I somehow completely missed your video with the shelves in your daughter’s closet. That’s a great use of that dead space and simple to do! I will almost certainly do the same in one of my closets (once I get done with my whole entire bookshelves in my front room I have been working on for months 😂).

[@KelseyRomitoDIY]

You didn’t miss anything! I just added them!

[@Littlefrogintheocean]

Where did you keep your winner clothes and winter blankets?

[@KelseyRomitoDIY]

I don’t have tons of winter clothes because it’s pretty warm here in Texas. All of the blankets are in the hall closet.

[@MaritHaugland-y2p]

Hi. What size is your bed, and what size is your duvet? In USA you have different messurement than we do in Norway😅

[@kathygann7632]

I built that same type of shelving in my garage about 25 years ago. They have worki Ed great!

[@dianamay3609]

Just found your channel. Love it!

[@KelseyRomitoDIY]

Welcome!!

[@genniejefferson6588]

I’m so glad I found you again

[@annettefox769]

How do you knowhow to do all of that?

[@HellCatt0770]

I need a nail gun, and one of those round saw things! You make this look so easy! I’m sure I could make comedy versions on how not to do diy!

[@KelseyRomitoDIY]

🤣🤣 give it a try!
