Living Room Makeover | with Mid-Century Modern Vibes

With the New Year, I'm bringing you a new project reveal! If you followed along, then you remember the first episode about Vymian & RJ's living room and dining area. There was a disheartening 'contractor disaster' while installing their canned lighting that meant the completion of this project was put on hold until that could be resolved. Now we get to see the install of this project and the final-look as I reveal it to the clients. It's mid-century, warm, inviting, and CLASSY!
If you watched to the end, comment below and let me know if you found the tags on your curtains?! 😱

The rooms are so calming. Great job! Nice of the owner to comment on the support they received from the viewers. He is as classy as his home.

[@deboramccallum3987]

Which goes to prove you can't buy class..it's natch

[@kimmyz]

I almost cried when I saw what accidentally happened to their lovely home during the electrical installation. Your clients were such good sports and are now rewarded with another outstanding decorating job by Rebecca Robeson. Such talent! I live in a much more old fashioned home, but I can appreciate good design no matter what the style. Bravo, Rebecca! You're amazing. Thanks for sharing once again.

[@debrahardy8689]

Their home turned out beautifully. They waited a long time for the reveal and you outdid yourself with this one and the wait was well worth it.

[@evelina2363]

This couple is the sweetest. Such a genuinely cheerful wife and such a gentleman of a husband. Wishing them the best time enjoying their renewed, beautiful home

[@user-mi7dv6sn7n]

I LOVE that RR shows the reality of being an interior designer. You don't just show up and 'ta da' - you showed the work! You pack and lift and unbox and shop back rooms and go with out sleep and worry about choices and re-dos. Do things fit? Ah oh, change the rug? Thank you for showing what it's really like to be a FABULOUS designer. So much talent in a tiny body :)

[@jenl.4051]

Such a fantastic reveal, Rebecca. I'm so happy that they finally got their house put back together and so beautifully too! I hope they enjoy it for a long time to come! 💞

[@leanneb6622]

Yes, usually gets worse before it gets better but I think with the setback that allowed them to make changes they wouldn't have done before. It turned out so beautiful

[@Triciau1]

They say every disappointment is a blessing; it returned out to be true in this case. The makeover is absolutely beautiful.

[@malikac8935]

What an incredible professional you are, Rebecca! A true master of the art. And seeing that you haven’t got everything figured out before you start the install and keep yourself flexible until the end is really refreshing!

[@mistygeller3193]

Oh it’s lovely!! Very very classy and still comfortable 😊 Congratulations to your homeowners and to you Rebecca! Another beautiful project!!

[@jansmith3158]

Beautiful home. Very nice scale of funiture. And, I love the kitchen with the wood & the brown tiles. So many of the homes these days are white, white, white. So it's refreshing to see a home with beautiful wood tones with cream. Lovely couple too. ♥

[@dscox8568]

You would never know it’s a smallish space . It turned out beautiful and multifunctional . Let the hardship be behind you both 💕 Join the design sessions you won’t regret it!

[@Disneyfan4life]

Another wonderful reveal. I don’t think I have ever seen a room that Rebecca has done that doesn’t take your breath away. You did an outstanding job. So glad that Vymian and RJ are back in their home and will be able to enjoy this beautiful transformation for years to come.

[@doublescorpions]

Rebecca, it goes without saying that you have great taste but what happens to the homeowners own accessories that have meaning to them and that they may have collected and curated over time? Do you ever incorporate it into the new design? When I have redone rooms I've bought new items, of course, but also repurposed and relocated decor items from room to room. Thank you for this eagerly anticipated follow up of Vymian and RJ's main floor. It's beautiful! S.

[@camis.1347]

@doublescorpions Yes, she does. I have seen it in past projects here on YT.

[@diamondhair11]

I think Rj and Vymian's house looks so amazing, amazing, amazing !!!! It is so weird how someone with Rebeccas eye can come into a space and just "See" what needs to be done and where things need to go....You my dear lady are special and you have such a special gift... Now the space looks so classy and refined. Great job, Ms. Robeson.

[@MsCaterific]

I'm not a mid-century Modern fan, but this! This is classy and warm and inviting and cozy. I'm so down with this!!

[@denisemchaney4080]

"I have a black belt - in shopping." 😂❤

[@taneshiasamuels-walker5351]

Delayed certainly don’t mean denial. So happy they are back in their home and happy things turned out so beautiful. Rebecca and team, you guys did an awesome job.

[@kathleengray134]

Absolutely stunning result after all the setbacks. Fabulous work Rebecca and crew. ❤🎉

[@memamuchos2705]

You have a special talent & you’ve taught me so much. Thank you Rebecca PS you’re looking great ❤

[@mariareyesrosado425]

You have a natural gift from God to turn ordinary decor into something beautiful, elegant, unique. Love how their home turned out! Beautiful!!!❤

[@marysmith861]

Oh my... I'm so happy for them that they are back in their place. I felt so sorry for them when the disaster happened. Looks absolutely gorgeous. Love the color palette. And it's true... I have learned tons from the design sessions. So worth it!

[@shhImHiding2]

Gorgeous. I was initially so disappointed you didn't choose the flower rug and then, so elated to see it down. I wish we could buy some of these things, like the candles on the TV console. Such a beautiful couple. One of my favorites.

[@donnapowell8620]

Candle Holders are available --Diana Black & Gold Candle Holder from Amber Marie & Co or Willa Arlo Tabletop Hurricane

[@rosemarychandler2887]

Beautiful! I'm so glad they are back in their home. The color palette is calming and so classy.

[@angellovethatisme]

Rebecca, Vymian & RJ are so blessed to be able to have you come into their home and create such beauty. My heart sank for them when their home disaster happened, but knew God would make something good from this accident. 🙏 I have to tell you I held my breath as you were choosing which rugs you would be using and I LOVE your choices as well as how you switched the wall art! 🥰 I always cut the tags on my drapes/curtains...such a small thing with a big impact. I can hardly wait to see what you create in 2024❣

[@janetr5929]

I actually chocked up last video when their home flooded. I felt so bad for them. I hope the wait ended up being worth it for them and they are enjoying their beautiful home.

[@pricedesign8805]

Love the beautiful wood tones, great design!

[@joyceschneider8377]

So very beautiful. Love how you pulled everything together. Now I know I can do silver, gold and black together. So very beautiful. Thank you. Wonderful way to start 2024. Happy New Year.

[@donnadoble-brown338]

Miss Rebecca I have followed you for YEARS and I never think I can learn something new or that I can be surprised by what you do . . . . But I am each and every time. It’s such a joy to see you do what GOD sent you here for . . . To make the world a more beautiful place, one Becky room at a time! Love you💚

[@franceslovato9842]

Bravo beautiful results! 👏🎉 I love how Rebecca put the candles on the side of the t.v. & it didnt block the view of the t.v at all. I've seen people put things in front of the tv & it would bother me to look at stuff in front of the t.v. instead of viewing the actual t.v. screen. Always excellent & practical design from Rebecca! 👍

[@barbarar8609]

There is no one else I have watched that brings the classy style to every room like you. I give a lot to have half of your talent. I am very happy for you to experience so much success.

[@kimpatience6505]

Night and day difference! So beautiful. The only thing I wish that they would be willing to get different dining room chairs. Wonderful project!

[@carolinemorris9186]

Another great job! You rock Rebecca! 🤘💞 21:40

[@user-sc9lr6kz8t]

Vymian and RJ's house turned out beautiful! Nice work!

[@lynnelovett8999]

Beautiful make over❤. The best to you Mr. R J and Ms Vivian. God's speed.

[@apenz2009]

The home looks amazing! They deserve it. Rebecca did a wonderful job again.

[@lindaheter6350]

You were absolutely right about changing the rug, it’s beautiful and perfect for the space. The home turned out beautifully! I love it all❤

[@KYTrailRider]

I was so happy to see the follow-up after the disaster happened. And I couldn't be any more delighted for them. It's a beautiful home!

[@bananabob2185]

Another outstanding accomplishment, Rebecca! You get every detail right! EVERY detail. I hope you all now have peace. 💖

[@VMCCompany]

It's great to see these lovely folks back in their newly decorated home. Great job, as always, Rebecca !

[@shirleyprescott1528]

ooooooh! I just love the results! It was sure worth the wait! She is amazing and does it RIGHT! All in Gods timing!!!!!

[@vfrantz03]

Calming and elegant space! Would love to see it with a fire in the fireplace and candles all lit 😍 The reflections off the glass table would feel like a luxury spa space. The way the light fixture and kitchen hardware instantly updated that space- what a difference even small details can make to the overall look! Also, I am blown away at such a grace filled couple- I just instantly love them. They seem to radiate joy. Glad their home turned out to be such a show stopper!

[@jolynndietz3435]

I am blown away by this beautiful home! Such a lovely and peaceful feel. Excellent choices for this couple to enjoy. I am inspired!

[@Nancybartlettofficial]

Rebecca, you are a genius when it comes to interior design. This turned out amazing! 🙌🏼

[@mrs.carter4775]

I’m so glad you made things right with these folks. What happened to them was so unfortunate but it looks great now!!!

[@snorlund1]

Well done, Rebecca! So glad to see a happy conclusion to this couple’s home! 😊

[@rhondagreen135]

What a beautiful transformation! You hit it out of the park! You just instantly know when something works or not. Thank you for sharing, I enjoyed watching the process!

[@user-oz7nw9sq7y]

This turned out so beautiful! Light and bright… it looks so glamorous and chic!

[@shade3403]

i love rebecca style each home, so classy with few beautiful pieces that are not too heavy and making sure its spacious to move around. her clients love it and so are we, her viewers! thanks for sharing!

[@mamaknows1062]

Absolutely lovely couple and beautiful results in their home. Rebeccas design skills are inate God given gifts.

[@hsal8083]

Wow. What a classy place. It fits the homeowner’s perfectly. Love it!!! Beautiful! Your clients are very classy individuals and it is so refreshing.

[@QueenAnnesLace13]

This was so moving, Vymian and RJ are such a lovely couple. So happy their home turned out to be a special space for them after that dreadful disaster. Kudos Rebecca!

[@sgallant2107]

The finished home is beautiful and serene. I love that it doesn't scream MCM, but the influence is apparent. Quality work from Rebecca and her team!

[@glendashine9468]

They are such special people who obviously love each other and really care and trust you too! Everything turned out so classy and beautiful. I love how you showed us, what you may originally choose to place here, may in the end be a better fit other there instead. I also loved how you pulled out different colors and shades without it being obvious. Instead it’s almost subliminal. Just gorgeous.

[@MHand623]

Their home turned out beautifully. You've really did a fabulous job as usual. You are truly gifted when it comes to decorating/designing. Great job!

[@vivian9803]

A beautiful home for a beautiful couple. So glad this turned out so well for them after the disaster!

[@dianejohnson7235]

Wow Rebecca!!! What a transformation!!!! That home is just beautiful!!!!

[@pamelasprings6723]

What a sweet couple. I love how the redo turned out. You just have the remarkable interior design self-taught talent, Rebecca. I learn so much from you. Thank you for all you share with us.

[@msjlfu]

You are such an inspirational designer Rebecca - the best of the best! You never cease to inspire me with your beautiful creations.❤❤

[@k9hannibal]

What a kind sweet couple! ❤

[@darkhorse7460]

Oh goodness I remember them and the flood! It turned out gorgeous!

[@cindyellis765]

Once again, a classy, beautiful home redo. I also just watched you update your son’s bedroom, which is so wonderful and just the right touches of masculine. I absolutely can not believe you are 65! You don’t even come close to looking your number age. Love you and your videos.

[@maryanndriscoll6993]

I love how she used their existing furniture and cabinets. We can replace everything lol

[@Sup3rcalifragilistic]

The makeover is absolutely fabulous. This couple is so sweet and deserving .

[@jeansunderland6115]

Absolutely beautiful! Rebecca you are amazing. What I love is the choices you make. Everything has a purpose. Everything looks classy. And everything flows. Thank you for sharing! Happy that the owners are finally back in their home!

[@sylviasharp8419]

Absolutely beautiful. You have turned their home into a lovely and comfortable showplace. You are awesome and never cease to amaze me.

[@flowerydaveflowerydave1533]

Becky's waist! Wow, you so need to wear outfits that are form fitting!!! And the room is super gorgeous too!!

[@patpar6208]

House is stunning gorgeous, it has my favorite color palette to live in, the gold, greens, grays, modern and cozy. Lucky homeowners to have Rebecca as a friend and personal interior designer. God bless all.

[@silestepalmeri8340]

Lovely home. What a wonderful and peaceful environment. Truly turning a lemony situation with the disaster into the lucious lemonade. I hope this family will enjoy this home for many years to come!!!!

[@shelleymalone4427]

Awe, they are truly lovely and resilient. The home now reflects their warmth and beauty.

[@GrannyZanna]

So beautiful, I am near tears. Outstanding save for this sweet couple! Congrats, Rebecca!

[@bumblebee_mrs]

Lovely, lovely words from a lovely man, you two (RJ & Vymian) deserve the gorgeous house Rebecca gave you.

[@ginalamey2170]

Beautiful job!!! ❤ To this sweet couple, thank you for allowing viewers into your home. It looks amazing

[@shellydsouza8902]

The rooms look serene! And the couple was gracious. Rebecca, it’s always a treat watching your videos.

[@kristinapreedy7069]

The home turned out lovely! I can relate to all the feels; we returned home from vacation on 1/1/23 to a home that flooded due to a perfect storm of an ice storm, power outage, and unusual sub-freezing temps causing our fire sprinkler pipes to burst and our domestic water (on a well) to pump 300 gal/hr into the house for a week before we returned. Our 3200 sq ft rambler was fully flooded and most of our furniture and walls had already started to mold. Fast forward to over 12 months later and we are still not back in our house - hopefully another 6 weeks… I’ve been bingeing a lot of design and renovation videos since I’ve had to choose all new floors, paint colors, cabinets, and other finishes for the entire house on my own - it’s a lot and it’s overwhelming at times. Thank goodness I had just retired a month before this all happened LOL! And thank goodness for KZbin and content like Rebecca’s that give me great inspiration and ideas!

[@camis.1347]

@kristinapreedy7069 Heartbreaking!! Idk where where you live but next time if u can, winterize your pipes and outside spigots! You can turn off the water coming into the house before you leave. That way it does not happen again. Did u lose photo albums? I hope not.

[@kristinapreedy7069]

@camis.1347 thank you for your kind words. Unfortunately it was our fire sprinkler system that froze so there is really no way to “winterize” it or leave it dripping, etc. It failed in an area where an addition had been put on the house over 10 years prior and because of where the new roof areas met, it was hard to get adequate insulation where the splice of the sprinkler system met. If we had been home, we would have put a fire in the wood stove when the power went out which is why it hadn’t happened before when we lost power and it isn’t typically 14 degrees in our area (30 miles southeast of Seattle) for multiple days - literally a perfect storm! We didn’t lose any photo albums, luckily, but did lose a few (but amazingly not too many) photos that I thought were so well organized in (cardboard) photo boxes in a closet on the floor… all of our non-digital photos (that could be salvaged) are now digitized as part of the insurance cleanup! Highly recommend!

[@camis.1347]

@@kristinapreedy7069 Terrible situation. Glad the photos were mostly safe. I have most on digital and the older ones before digital cameras & phones are in plastic tote! I need another tote tho as I inherited grandparents albums, and the should go in plastic totes too. Thanks for the reminder!

[@bettypisiakowski2148]

I was so excited when I saw this today.. everything came out beautifully.. I hope they are able to enjoy their new space everyday.. it’s magnificent..job well done❤

[@marcelobaptista7418]

Hoping this was the long waited reveal of the project gone wrong. Glad it’s finally finished and the homeowners can enjoy their new awesome space you created.

The house is beautiful, glam and simpley modern all in one. Looks perfect, great job!

[@sarahwood3888]

What a beautiful space you’ve created for these lovely people. Wish I’d had you a couple of years ago when I had a slab leak here in Texas. Tunnels under the house through my family room floor, every floor had to be replaced. So many problems occurred, in a hotel for 3 months, putting it all back together was daunting, and I’m still not pleased with most of it. Bless you!

[@wilhat]

It looks stunning you did a fantastic job.

[@ghostwriter8247]

A classy space for a classy couple! So happy for them! Great job Rebecca!!!

[@0309kwan]

More beautiful than the original plans. Job well done indeed.

[@juliekalivoda484]

You are so so amazing. Your “eye for detail” is one of my favorite things about you, plus I loved when you mentioned your rule before installing the ceiling fan, that being “wash your hands first”! The window treatments look so very very good plus I love the wall art and accessories, AMAZING! Lov u woman, Julie

[@IMOO1896]

Wonderful result that the couple seems very happy with. Someone else mentioned the placement of their mementos used as decor, I hope those have been worked in to their delight. Rebecca, you’ve a gift!

[@andrew4809]

[@baomin60]

It's so beautiful! I love those clear and gold candle holders! And those black metal stands/holders...what a perfect touch!!! Oh, the subtle colors & touches! It really is the decor that truely connected the beautiful layout you and your team put together!

As always your taste is impeccable. Thank you for showing an approachable design for most incomes. I am also a self-taught designer and work with clients who have a wide range of budgets and really enjoy it.

[@patriciafischer8828]

Great space, purposefully appointed… Another winning project for your portfolio! And yes, I routinely cut tags off the draperies - before they are hung…
