🎄 2022 CHRISTMAS DECORATE WITH ME 🎄 PT. 4 | *BIG FAIL* Mini Office Makeover w/ Christmas Decorations

[@KatieVining]

Happy Saturday! Thank you for decorating with me today! I hope you enjoy todays video, we are keeping it really real today and showing you all the ups and downs of our Home Decorating Process! I hope you all had a wonderful thanksgiving with you loved ones ❤❤ I couldnt be more thankful for all of you! xoxoxo Katie ❤❤

[@kristenhill3609]

I LOVE that you included the “fail”…it’s easy to think when watching decorating videos that The outcome is always perfect..so I wholly appreciate knowing that even you aren’t always pleased with the results!

[@KatieVining]

Of course!!! Keeping it real always!! Decorating is so so hard and EXPENSIVE and sometimes cutting corners bites me in the butt😭

[@TJ-yv3kp]

Everything isn't a Disney or hallmark movie. Thanks for keeping it real😘

[@KatieVining]

AMEN TO THAT!!

[@michellebarnett4994]

Katie, I had a spirit dog named'Princess'. We went EVERYWHERE together. I lived in a small city and we used to walk to the river on a weekly basis. We had a park too and I used to take her there all time. There would be nobody there in the winter and I would bring a ball and throw it for her for hours. I took her to a brook often and she would go nuts at the shore and dig at the sand and I threw a stick in the water, she was such a good swimmer!! She was beautiful, part german shepherd, part miniature greyhound. We were so close, besties!!❤️

[@caracampbell1715]

The office looks beautiful, Katie! Maybe add an area rug, too, for more warmth.😊

[@annagia153]

The Brian/Katie team does it again 🤩 you pulled the office together and it looks GREAT!! There is always trail and error in decorating and appreciate that you don’t gloss over that and always keep it real.

[@KatieVining]

Thank you so much Anna 😭😭

[@sarahkassa7749]

It came out great! It’s always nice to see rooms on a smaller budget as well because it’s real life. Great job both of you. 😁

[@amyburkart476]

You guys did a great job. That tree is so pretty. Enjoy your new space Brian.

[@KatieVining]

Thank you so much for watching!!

[@brendahamilton7630]

That tree is beautiful, even undecorated. Your husband is so special. Love your coordinating clothes. Lol. The colors are gorgeous

[@foreveryoung174]

Love the office makeover. The black cabinet looks so much better. Glad you decided to post the video. You authenticity makes you unique which I love. You both did a fantastic job 👏👏👏

[@alexhunter9091]

The furniture looks so much better black-great job-

[@KatieVining]

Thank you Alex!!!❤️❤️

[@pamgrieger9833]

Brian’s office looks great! Sometimes decorating doesn’t always work out the way you planned- but that’s ok! In our 41 years of marriage, we have changed things around, remodeled, repainted-whew it can be never ending, styles change but finally you find the decor and style you love! Have fun with it-and it looks like you have a great time together! I love your videos and your enthusiasm Katie!❤️

[@lindacarter126]

Beautiful job Katie and Brian! The “fail” wasn’t a fail, a change of heart in the color of the cabinets!! 🥰

[@ellieandronansvlogs7081]

I love how you included the fail, on KZbin we watch videos and always think everything turns out perfect and then we start to compare ourselves but seeing this video and knowing things don’t always work out is encouraging!

[@bevzurkammer4042]

I think it turned out great! The tree and the little village look beautiful!! 🎄🏠

[@mariaalexander427]

Glad you didn't toss this video Katie. When things go wrong (and it def has for my home decor aspirations this season) I get reinspired knowing it happens to the best of us!😘🥰

[@KatieVining]

Thank you so much for being here maria ❤️❤️ I always want to keep it real but the perfectionist inside gets the best of me sometimes!!

[@jodyknapp5374]

The office looks nice. Don’t beat yourself about the paint job, sometimes we need to pivot but it looks great on video. It’s fun watching you two as this reminds me of my husband and I 22 years ago when were also expecting our little one. We decorated and had fun with our first place. All these years later oh tastes have changed but its fun to compromise. I am driving him a bit crazy with Christmas this year. I lost my Mom to Covid last year December and I am trying to find the joy of the holiday again after a tough year. I love reading books and watching videos. I have been enjoying your videos very much. Best wishes for your little one and your happy family

[@janetschultz2655]

I really like your videos with both your decor choices. I think it’s great to show things don’t always go smoothly. I also like the before and after pics. Great ideas with using what you have in other areas of your home. It’s a great way to change the look of your spaces up.

[@KatieVining]

Thank you so much Janet!!! So grateful to have you here!! ❤️

[@dawndavis8324]

Great job Team Katie and Brian, I'm glad you didn't toss the video. Shows how real life does have some obstacles but you conquered and looks beautiful and love the burgundy and good for Brian's office. Another great decor project accomplished!

[@KatieVining]

Thank you so so much dawn ❤️❤️

[@julianemorey1372]

I didn’t think that the paint job was that bad 😊and the Christmas 🎄 decorations were cute 🥰

[@Donna91556]

Katie, I am so impressed. I would LOVE to have Brian come to my house and get me decorated. That tree is stunning. I love it. Donna xoxo

[@angiehh516]

I like that you shared a “fail”. We’ve all had those projects where we instantly regretted painting something or changing something. My husband and I are major DIYers…and we’ve done so many projects …I can’t even remember them all. When I run out of money, I live vicariously through people like you …redoing your new house. 😂. Don’t feel bad. It’s part of life. I’ve also been young and on a budget …and I’ve made do with leftover furniture or stuff that I pieced together from prior rooms or whatnot until I could really do what I wanted to do! It’s such a process and takes time. Your true followers will enjoy seeing you grow along the way and get to experience you redoing all these rooms over time….the little and big makeovers. It’s fun for us! My husband started a new job and he’s exhausted everyday so my pantry makeover has been stalled out (my pantry is literally disorganized and falling off the shelves) and the kids double vanity he was about to build has been halted. The quartz countertop has been sitting in the garage for months. 🤣 So I’m enjoying your vids…while I wait on him to get his mojo back. He builds and I do all the designs, painting, and decor. We enjoy your genuine attitude about it, Katie!!

[@annemariec7659]

I agree..the tree is real shaped even with glitter flocking...I love what you guys did. All looks very put together. 🎄

[@edie9059]

Ok I love how realistic you are with the painting part. How many people act like it’s the best idea to paint IKEA furniture? Maybe it depends on the piece? But this should be shared more often!! Love all the details in his office with the tree decorations and that runner over the new furniture to make the room warm and cozy.

[@samanthaleigh805]

Thanks for showing us the whole process, fail and all. That tree is stunning! I would love to have that in my house. The ornaments look beautiful on it as well!

[@KatieVining]

Thank you so much Samantha!!

[@mariaf.]

Katie the room came out wonderfully, Brian does have a Talent for decorating. I admire that you added the failure. We always learn from our Mistakes. Thank you for inspiring me in my Home Makeover

[@KatieVining]

Thank you so much Maria ❤️❤️

[@lorit.calloway1646]

Hi Katie-Everybody’s home office should look like such a “fail.” The basket wall looks so high-end, and the tree is rich and glamorous. I’m happy and relieved to see Aurora doing well! My Banjo is getting a red Wondershop dog sweater from Target this afternoon. Enjoy the rest of the holiday weekend. PS: Zinsser primer :)

[@cristinagallegos3873]

It came out beautiful. I love the tree and the colors you all picked. The village came out cute. I'm glad you didn't scrap this video, I really enjoyed it.

[@michaela2019]

Looks great! I appreciate that you also share things that don't work/slash you don't recommend.

[@KatieVining]

Thank you ❤️❤️happy to share all the ups and downs ❤️

[@tracyenriquez2952]

After all you went through it still looks good. I'm glad you didn't throw it out. You are human and I love that you showed the bloopers.

[@KatieVining]

Thank you so much ❤️❤️

[@pagedillard254]

I love this space. The tree is beautiful. Nothing wrong doing things this way until your true plans work out. I think y'all did a fantastic job! Merry Christmas you 2!!❤🎅❄⛄🌲❤

[@twoweirdoswithkiddos7970]

I'm a huge reader. I like to watch youtube in the mornings, I listen to podcasts when cleaning or doing things like that, and I read more in the evenings.

[@hannahlampkins2343]

I really love the gold and burgundy! I feel like the colors compliment each other very well

[@reneelittle7464]

I love it! You and Brian make a great team and I appreciate you keeping it real. It's so easy to post and/or show only the perfect moments. I appreciate it when people I follow show the real life moments.

[@noemijones5925]

I’m so glad you decided to keep this video to share! I love the burgundy color. Love everything, especially the tree! Christmas 🎄 *oh and im glad to know your fur baby is doing better now. 🐶🙏🏼

[@tanyatvrdik334]

Beautiful as usual. Love how you keep it real and show even those items that you feel didn't turn out well.

[@debrasmothers]

I love how Brian helps you your office looks beautiful Brian

[@rachelkivarkis1801]

Wow, what a beautiful room. Great team work and great taste too. U both , r so organized, God bless U both. Thanks for sharing. 🥰👍🙏❤️👏🎄🎁

[@carriekowal5123]

[@jene7391]

Everything looks great! 🙌🏽. Good vibes in the space.

[@KatieVining]

Thank you Jen!!!

[@ruthprovost1781]

Hi Katie the office is beautiful I love that burgundy color and that cabinets they look ok you need finish inside but they ok and the tree is gorgeous everything is beautiful

[@JamieMarieKY]

It looks great Katie! I love that you kept the painting thing in there. The cabinet still look great!

[@nikiwilliamson9629]

Katie and Brian…I think the office space looks great! I love that you used what you already had and added a few new things. I love that tree, the burgundy is BEAUTIFUL!! Love watching your videos and Katie you are absolutely glowing!!!! Can’t wait for your next decorating video! 🌲

[@sarahmcalister281]

I love the tree he did a great job and yes y’all are a awesome couple ❤

[@mariawilliams1314]

Just real life Katie! I still love it and think it turned out great! Love the basket wall and the framed artwork and the tree and decor is beautiful! 😊❤😊🎄📋📚

[@tanyawicomb9123]

Love the office space especially the tree 🎄❤️

[@autumnowen7170]

I’m so glad you shared the video with us. It turned out beautiful!

[@ym2638]

I think a nice thick garland would look great under that wall piece! And maybe little dainty decor on the side like a bowl filler vase or some candle holders

[@lovenhzwill831]

I want to keep a little Christmas around and now j have ideas to do my office

[@KatieVining]

Yay!!! thanks for watching

[@dianewillis772]

You both did a great job decorating Brian's office. He made a good choice adding the burgundy color. Also I wanted to tell you that Costco currently has the heated Ember mug discounted by $20.00.

[@maryweil1846]

Office looks good! Love the basket wall. Brian did good with his tree and I like the village. Have a good weekend.

[@KatieVining]

Thank you so much Mary! I hope you have a wonderful weekend as well ❤️

[@kimberleyp5333]

I love the host's authenticity! Beautiful decor!🌞Fl.

[@KatieVining]

Thank you ❤️❤️

[@Schelly-il2wf]

looks great and using what you have is important and I love the christmas colors Brian went with it

[@suzannegage4878]

Everything looks great! I love the decorations on top of the new cabinets. I like putting contact paper inside cabinets….it would cover the oops paint & is removable too! Love watching y’all!

[@annbodge3769]

Lol, thank you so much for including the big fail. I now know that I am not alone! Great job as always, thank you! 😊

[@joslyngoddard4374]

Love reading in the mornings..i get in abou about 2hrs before i get out of bed..I light a candle..and we back on to a river that is pretty loud this time of the yr..:)

[@KatieVining]

I love that, sounds so cozy!!!

[@chrissysvideos]

Love it! great job!!!! And the Christmas decor is just right! 🎄😇

[@KatieVining]

Thank you ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@nancybarta8167]

My daughter for her office got some beautiful glass doored bookcases at IKEA and they were easy to assemble.Not a big fan of white furniture but black is worse and black and brown paint vry hard to work with.I have a basket wall in my livingroom.......love it so much.Most of mine are from Target Amazon and Santa fe trading Co.The room turned out gorgeous !

[@KatieVining]

Thank you Nancy ❤️

[@michellewissler3013]

Katie I loved your video! Thank you for keeping it real and please don't be embarrassed! I've learned the most from my fails! The office turned out great! You and Brian did a great job! The tree is gorgeous! Love the colors, beautiful combination. The houses/trees look so pretty. I absolutely love the basket wall, great design! All your touches made the room turn out beautiful. Thanks for all your ideas, inspiration and being you! You are the best💖 love and hugs to you💕🤗🎄

[@nikkicenteno4056]

Beyond paint is pretty great on ikea type furniture

[@kellieroth1710]

I think it's beautiful! Brian does have a great eye for color! It's really a stunning tree! I also love the IKEA set. I would never have known the struggle but thanks for sharing it! I think with all the decor it's really nice! Good job you guys! Teamwork makes the dream work!

[@cokerichert]

You guys are so cute. You did a beautiful job, it looks perfect.

[@aileenbell6750]

Woohoo! Brian’s Christmas style is very much mine. Burgundy and gold were primary colors in my wedding. I love how this room came out. Also…thank you for showing a fail…that I have done myself. Almost this exact one. It looks really lovely and it will be great for the short term. Sending blessings to all of you!❤

[@KatieVining]

I love it!! So so classic!! Ugh soooo frustrating but you live and learn ❤️❤️

[@krigers1024]

When painting pressboard you need to lightly sand the surface and get the B.I.N primer! It’s VERY sticky and you have to work fast! But it works perfectly on pressboard!!!

[@Dm777-7]

Love the colors on Brian’s tree. You two work well together! ❤️

[@pmlsue]

Pam from Lakeland. I just adore the basket wall decor. The office looks great.

[@guerra_1355]

I totally love the burgundy n gold colors on a 🌲 tree ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@joannelobello3033]

Katie the office space came out beautiful. Tbh this is my most favorite video of yours to date. Showing the "fail" (which still looks amazing) made me feel there is hope for me lol

[@ceidyperez91]

Love all your videos everything looks great fail or no fail you and Brian are so good together team work and achieving everything together taking each other's differences and making it work is what makes a relationship grow so happy to see you guys work as a team. Love everything I would just add a rug if you happen to have a spare one maybe. Happy to be part of your community 😇😇😇

[@natvtxn1213]

You did such a great job on the office guys. Great teamwork!

[@poisonlady1965]

I think it turned out fantastic! The innards of cabinets are for storage only so don't worry about that. You can do something to it later if you wish.

[@katiemagdziarz]

The whole room looks fabulous, as always! Your tree is beautiful! I The painting project all you needed before was to use an adhering primer. ❤️❤️. It did turn out beautiful! Love the color! You’ve got magic! Everything you touch turns out stunning!

[@carolfinn4027]

It's actually all quite lovely. No need to apologize. Loving the burgundy and in fact got the burgundy pillow myself from Home Goods. Love that tree skirt also. I like KZbin during the day and reading at bed time.

[@kellyejones9495]

[@MamaCarola1]

Years ago I had bought elite bookcases & doors from Consumer Distributing (ok decades ago lol). They were such good quality & survived countless moves. My last landlord stole & destroyed them so now I'm looking for new ones but more to store vinyl records. Love how the room came out & Brian is a phenomenal decorator!

[@KatieVining]

Oh no I’m so so sorry!!!!

[@juliekalivoda484]

Hi Katie, I learned (the hard way) that some surfaces can’t be painted/that paint won’t adhere to it. But the good news is, if you spray paint them first, paint will then adhere and not peel off! But you have eye right idea using the kless expensive units from IKEA because one can then add wood molding or trim pieces on top/on the sides, etc, to camouflage the seams, and no one would ever know that it was inexpensive IKEA pieces. My husband and I did a big, 3 bookcase thing, pushed um together, added trim boards, then ran a long piece of crown molding across the top, and in the end it looked like a huge built in book case/display shelf wall unit, for way-less than the real deal. With Bryan’s skill set, the 2 of you could could easily accomplish it. Know you will be having other-things-to-do here soon, but just saying…😘

[@lisacalderone4783]

I love your taste!! You have such a beautiful home.

[@christinepage3318]

This space is amazing - you both did a wonderful job!

[@TarraLHudson7]

The Christmas tree is beautiful 😍 I love that burgundy, good job Brian lol

[@trishpage8750]

I think it turned out beautifully! Thanks for sharing everything no matter! Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄 ❤️

[@marjiemadlena5871]

I think it turned out great. What a beautiful space for your husband to work.

[@sariflynn9292]

Looks awesome! You should get one more cubby table so that it can take up all the wall.

[@42692Krista]

I had the same trouble painting a furniture piece black and ended up buying a matte vinyl car wrap roll on Amazon for relatively cheap (like $15) and did my best to attach without having visible seams or seams on corners where baskets will rub, and it’s held up so well! I’ve also heard there’s spray paint that may work! But I think it came out great!

[@heatherpink75]

I like the cabinet way better in black and it’s ok that it’s not perfect!!! Love it! ❤

[@KatieVining]

Thank you heather!!

[@StuGo1013]

Beautiful! Add a Christmas bow or two to the basket wall🎁🎄

[@KatieVining]

LOVE THIS IDEA!!

[@mammaneedsabreak17]

Thanks for posting the “fail”. Love it all!!

[@angelicatorres8606]

Love the deep red! The shelving came out to be really good. Next time try using the bullseye 123 primer. There is one in that line that doesn’t require any sanding either.

[@kimberlylamitie2869]

I love love to decorate. You did great but if you want a change move the chaise lounge under the basket wall, the side board cupboards next to the Christmas tree and Brian’s desk where the lounger is. Then his desk won’t be the first thing people see when they walk in or when they are eating in the dining room. Next time get a product called liquid sand. Wipe it on and no messy sanding😊

[@annapriest619]

You and Brian did a beautiful job and I love the way you work together😊

[@KatieVining]

Thank you so much Anna ❤️

[@mamaat5682]

Just watched Elf for the first time since you talked about . We loved it and will be a new tradition movie❤Thanks love the way the decor came out.

[@KatieVining]

Oh my gosh!!! Yay! It’s the best!!

[@stephaniealaia769]

Love this, Katie! It came so pretty 😍 and love the team work you and Brian have and Brian has great taste too! And so happy y’all’s pup is doing better now! We put a Angel on our tree 🌲

[@uncletashy]

I’m so glad you put out this video!! Things don’t always work out how we think they will, but you made the best of the situation and the room turned out beautiful!

[@KatieVining]

Thank you for watching Natasha ❤️❤️

[@beingtoreyjohnson8874]

Hey twins lol lol I got the matching bottoms to the red and white stripe top you are wearing I’m the beginning! Merry Christmas

[@scohen1021]

LOVE the tree!!!!!!!!!

[@tpemby74]

I always watch your videos but never comment. Girl, I’m so glad you put this video up but you say things a lot that I wish I had realized when I was your age. Yes everything doesn’t always come out like you planned but that’s how life is. It was a beautiful makeover still got however long it is until you upgrade it. I will use every color but red for Christmas but I did use a touch of burgundy this Christmas and it’s beautiful. Love your makeover videos especially. Happy Holidays and congrats on y’all’s baby.

[@KatieVining]

Thank you so much for being here Trina!! I really appreciate you ❤️

[@candywilkins386]

Wow!!! What an amazing job yall did! I love it! Sometimes you are so hard on yourself! I think the office is very functional and stylish! The team work is awesome Brian puts his all into helping you! So sweet to see him so involved! You are glowing and I can see how close it is to Sister coming! I pray that it will be a easy delivery for you!!! I would live to know the name of sister!!!💜💜💜 Any hints???? NAME reveal next video coming soon?

[@beatlemum]

Looks great & very cozy! And giirrrl, every project I have trial & error. No such thing as fail. 😄 Wish I was a reader! I'm a KZbin watcher/listener. And music is my real love. Music is going all the time. Can't wait for the next vid! Happy Holidays, mama!

[@ninavester3374]

Happy belated Thanksgiving Katie & Brian.. Youre showing life.. mistankes and successes.. and I love it! The interior looks great and the Office is perfect!
