Never disappoint!!!

[@bonniehahn1288]

@@mytube9940 great Job!

[@ceecee2304]

Gorgeous! Christian always has the best reactions! He’s the hype man we all need! I would’ve never thought to use brown black and gray together, I thought it would clash but everything blends so well and looks so cozy.

[@alienflower7651]

Omg yeah, I wish my husband showed this excitement lol

[@daisyy99]

Everything is just perfect. I didn't know about downloading art to get printed. Very reasonable expenses to make such an impact. Also, never heard of cord covers that were paintable either!

[@rumibegum8579]

I love this makeover, it's definitely inspired me to do mine. Would you mind sharing where you got your digital prints from? X

[@tonyhppton5645]

You are so so talented,you have me mesmerised with your videos.l am 85 years old but have never lost my interest in home design , l can’t do it myself now but really enjoy watching you do it .Your enthusiasm is wonderful and l love your accent. Bravo Kristen you are a delight watch. 👏👏👏💕💕💕

[@audrataylor8973]

WOW! I can’t believe how u made the room feel with keeping the gold of the mirror. A out dated look that absolutely transformed into updated and didn’t even touch the mirror. I learned so much from that moment. Also can’t wait to order those prints!!! U r so talented and love your videos thank u for all u do!!!

[@twilde3754]

What a lovely man -- Christian is so very supportive.

[@vickistroud2436]

Love all your work Kristen! And what a supportive husband you have. Thank you for sharing another grand, but practical makeover!

[@ashleygraves6303]

R they married?

[@sharonsomers5513]

Bedroom turned out so pretty. Your husband’s reaction is great. 💕

[@einahpets]

I am SHOCKED by how beautiful and cozy you've made this room look... and without spending a fortune on new furniture! So inspirational ❤️

[@stephaniekaufman1830]

Goals!! 💞

[@lose999]

Isn't the like button and thumbs up the same.?? This makeover is stellar, truly. My favorite is the art placement and wall shelves.

[@Souad-222]

You should be proud!! It’s Sooooo beautiful 🤩 the only change I would make is using a bigger wall art above the bed.

[@Madi-in6kf]

I was thinking the exact same!

[@clalyrics441]

I am in utter awe of how wonderfully this turned out, I wish this was my bedroom!

[@hereticartist574]

Looks fantastic! I would try to find a larger piece of artwork for above the bed to get this room from 90 to 100% perfect!

[@susanws1192]

Absolutely my favourite one from your Lake House so far! Also love how you and Christian were totally matching your outfits for the reveal!

[@Randis-vv5hg]

Stunning! The only thing I might change is to increase the size of the art above the bed, or maybe hang two pieces. Love it all!

[@jjksiwz]

Oh my goodness! What a gorgeous room. I watched the video twice and wanted to click twice to double like it. 👏🏻👏🏻🤩🤩🤗🤗❤️❤️💯💯💯

[@thepeachyhomeco.472]

Wow this came out absolutely gorgeous Kristen, so soft and subtle. Obsessed with the wall sconces by the bed side. So beautiful!

[@gardengirl1191]

Love it all! Well done. Especially like the earthy tones, gold accents, creme flowers and vase.

[@canadaveedu]

I love the way you explained each little detail. Love how your videos are to the point and not a lot of blah blah ❤

[@patriciaschmitt6448]

Absolutely GORGEOUS! You did an amazing makeover Kristen. So highend & expensive looking. Living proof that you don't have to spend $1,000 or an absurd amount of money to look like a 5 star hotel room. Brilliant!

[@sarahfrancescutti9873]

I love this makeover! I have a guest room that could use some actual decorating. Your style is fabulous, I've been binge watching all your videos and am inspired by every single one! Amazing work!!!! Beautifully done!!!

[@lukec.9819]

Wow!!! Kristen, you really knocked this one out of the park!!! My first instinct was to get rid of the gold mirrored closet doors, but you managed to bring them into the design by adding the wall sconces to balance them out and really make it all so cohesive!!! Love the wall color more than when I first saw you reveal it....great job on the headboard too!! Your guests won't want to leave!!!Love, love, love it!!! 👏👏❤🌹🌹

[@caitline9427]

You did amazing! And have inspired me with so many great ideas. The only thing I would change is the art above the bed- I think it would look great if it was bigger!!

[@susanmurphy7869]

Agree

[@stacybroussard3097]

Not going to Lie Kristen, I was Not Feeling this room at first... But once again you have knocked it out of the park!! It looks Amazing, WELL DONE KRISTEN 🤩

[@pattymartin1496]

Very nice with the exception of the too-small picture over the bed.

[@ladylove2038]

Loved Christian reaction. As always Kristen you knocked it out of the ball park. Love the wall color, I may use it in my living room as accent color.

[@KS-wl6eu]

I love that she is so excited to show him and he is so blown away! Cute.

[@SuperDuperBrit]

I always love his reaction. I also love the heck out of every single piece of art you used. I need the duck print immediately! Loveeeee!!!!!!

[@dordeel764]

Lovely, quite lovely indeed..I just think the art above the bed should have been much bigger, maybe double that the one you hanged. ❤

[@mariannerady1137]

Brown, black and gold - what a strange sounding combo yet it totally works! And stunningly well

[@mnm3755]

Your transformation is stunning! I love hubby’s supportive reaction.

[@MsBubblewrap]

I’m moving into our guest room to recuperate from knee replacement surgery and I wish you could come and design mine!!! This is so beautiful and chic!

[@nikierohrer2001]

Watching your videos is like going to the spa for me. God bless you.😌

[@huiqinjinxi4514]

This is great. With small budget, you have transformed the room into a place with luxurious feel. Well done.

[@juliettirina6829]

Yep! It looks exactly like a hotel room. Stunning!

[@monicayoung1468]

I totally agree!

[@pennysantana7809]

Wow I love it 😍 Christian is so cute, you can tell he appreciates everything you did to your guest room 💞. It is very inviting and cozy for your guests. Love it !! 💐 Be safe and God bless 💞🙏

[@gabrielleg.1347]

This might be my favorite makeover of yours too! Love seeing you use color and moody accents. So beautiful! Great tip with the Etsy prints too. I will definitely be doing that.

[@riverview9320]

Love the way art can be done now.

[@Toni_Snark]

Turned out beautifully! I would just add another same-sized artwork over the bed. It’s a bit small for the space. Love that wall color!!

[@artsyladie7]

This room looks amazing! Yes! Like a luxurious hotel! I love most the wall color, the coordinating gold wall lamps, and the vintage framed prints. But its all good. Fantastic job!

[@jackandlill]

I Love the room Kristen!! It is so warm & inviting. I have that Loloi rug as well - so many great colors! The only thing that jumps out at me is the beautiful print above the bed - I think the print itself is perfect - coloring & design....I just find it seems a bit small. It it was just a bit wider I think it would fit better. Just one persons opine. Great job ♥

[@Daisy-vv2je]

I agree with you. The rest of the room is so impressive, but the picture above the bed is too small. I love everything else!

[@rachaelbroadhurst1074]

I’m blown away at this transformation. Absolutely stunning 😍

[@mytrueserenity5666]

Loved it! Perfect relaxing colors and textures. Totally my palette. Just wondering about the best size for an art piece above the bed. I've seen much larger and now this smaller one you've used. I'm not so great at proportions, so a video on this would be great. How to choose the best size, what works and doesn't and why, etc.

[@cmitchell7347]

Everything in the room seems appropriately scaled except the artwork over the bed. It's dwarfed by the pillows, headboard, etc.Seems like it should be at least half again as large if not twice that size for better balance.

[@Tayamiz]

In fact that's the one thing that's annoying about the room.. It should have been way bigger to look better

[@taylorrice8612]

@@cmitchell7347 first thing I noticed about the print over the bed. A tad too small. The room is exquisite.

[@robinq5511]

You make it look so easy, but it is clear that a lot of thought and planning went into this room. Getting the right color paint especially can take some time to coordinate - I spent almost 4 months getting my colors 'just right'. It looks to me like you started with the rug...love it.

[@calliebolstad1345]

Looks great! I love it! The only thing I would change is make the picture above the bed bigger. We’ll done!! Very calm and cozy and inviting. 😊

[@jos-1994]

Beautiful. It looks warm and cozy, your Guests won't want to leave 😊 That accent wall color is gorgeous and pulls the room together to give you the vibe you want in a bedroom. Great job! 👏🏼

[@janiceyoder621]

Absolutely love this. I didn't know you could hide cords like that. I will definitely be using that trick!

[@pinkheels145]

Looks gorgeous 👏

[@madonnahagedorn5649]

I have to admit, I'm totally impressed. Anyone will feel pampered to stay in that room. Beautiful.

[@marissahosmundson7269]

This turned out so good! I didn’t even realize how plain Jane the room was before until the reveal, it’s so chic! Christian’s reaction was so great, I love that he loves it as much as you do.

[@nancydann1332]

Beautiful job! I would actually paint that little bit of the cord/plug that you can see under the table. It will disappear on the wall. I've done that around my house to match the wall color. Also, if you don't want to paint the actual cord, you can wrap it in masking tape and then paint the masking tape... Tricks the eye.

[@rockjockchick]

Good tip

[@garykimmey5660]

Kristen you are Great at decorating rooms. I hope we can see more of them.

[@Gabby_Aulogiari]

My favorite part is Christian’s reaction🤩 Greeeeeeeaaaaat job as always! Can’t wait for master bedroom transformation✨

[@moeaves]

It’s so cool to see how excited he was when you revealed the room to him. You are so adorable together.

[@pamdeloach6921]

Love the accent wall; the cord covers, wall sconces, oversize duvet, and everything. I wasn't even aware that prints could be ordered online.😍

[@marthestapleton5624]

So many things I love in this video: The paint color, paintable wall cover plates, how you did the scones, the Etsy duckies are such a great idea to download. Had to watch this twice to take notes!💜

[@sherryidibo2304]

Kristen you're absolutely amazingly talented and have a good eye when it comes to decor and design. The way you put together this room on a budget is phenomenal.

[@carolyngrotaers4454]

The room looks fabulous. I love how the beautiful rug inspired the colours for the room. The picture above the bed however could have been a fraction larger. I like the colours in that picture though. And in your sail boat's print too. The free hand ducks drawing is adorable I'm looking forward to your next room reveal.😀

[@sharleneharper993]

What a gorgeous room Kristen, any guest would be happy to stay there.❤

[@annaxbarie]

The way you took the super outdated looking gold mirror closet doors, and designed in a manner that pulled them in and makes them look SO high class and beautiful. Girl, Bravo.

[@cathydavis1877]

Very nice. One little change, larger picture over the bed!

[@mommalums1172]

I would just use the picture but put it in a larger frame. I love it all!!

[@jennyabaunza3552]

You're extremely talented and creative! Unbelievable. You outdid yourself again.

[@cristineramos6051]

I’d like to book the room please for my next vacation. So pretty. I do agree with another comment about the pic over the bed. Not necessarily bigger but maybe three side by side. Need to fill that space a little more. Otherwise perfection.

[@kano2130]

Paintable wall outlet covers?! 🤯 Thank you!!!! This is what I needed.

[@choochibi]

This came out so beautiful! Really great job! The only thing throwing me off a tiny bit is the artwork above the bed. I think you could have gone a bit bigger with it? Not sure... But you're an expert, so you know best 🙂

[@carrieleslie903]

Wonderful to have a makeover! The prints are fantastic. The whole room came together so nicely--lovely!

[@Marlon-lu9bf]

You killed it, you’ve given me so much inspiration for my bedroom redesign.

[@jenisabunny]

I think this is my favorite makeover so far! Your lake house is so beautiful 💗 My little boy and I love watching your duck stories and cats on Instagram!!!

[@jenelle152]

I love how this turned out! Using this as inspiration for a small house I’m decorating

[@gameplays_ts]

This is your best makeover till now. Love you so much! Proud of you.

[@hira.26]

Woww really love how you put different elements together really liked the transformation 👏 😍 Firstly wasn't so sure of the brown paint for the wall but at the end it all came together

[@alisonsmith7162]

Christian is a sweetie. Love that he was so appreciative. The lights and picture light are perfect.

[@cindyvanleir310]

Love it!!! I would have used a larger painting behind the bed, but, other than that, well done!

[@sandieedward993]

I Wanted to Say the Same Thing !! As the Size of the Arts Frame and Matting inside Frame Would've Looked Better Larger thus Balancing Width & Height of Actual Bed Frame 🪟...so Much Better as Now it's too Small but Picture itself is Stunning just could've been Matted & Framed Out Larger 😘 Everything Else is Absolutely Beautiful 😍 & Is Perfection 😘💕✔️ Well Done 💕💕💕

[@sandieedward993]

Also wanted to add in Fact Color choice of Paint is Perfection and Right on Trend...Super Job✔️✔️ Again Re-Mating With Bigger Matt into A Larger Frame would Change immediately the imbalance✔️✔️✔️😍

[@vickisacks8084]

Beautiful Kristen. Simply beautiful. I never would have thought to mix brass lights with black tables. Goes well together.

[@sallylovett1997]

Great job! Apray that headboard with some Scotch guard to protect the fabric :)

[@kristinecornell8649]

Just a suggestion, if you don't want to "hide" your cord or hard wire you can put a hole in the wall behind the sconce, feed the cord through, have another small hole above the outlet & being it through. Makes them look hard wired, especially if you end up getting night stands that are more substantial and can cover the hole at the bottom. I L❤️VE the aesthetic in your home! It's exactly what I want in my home!! Just stunning!!! 😍😍😍

[@elizaanastasiou7722]

OMG Kristen, you are so talented. I love everything about this room. I am currently working on my guest room and this was so inspiring. Thank you so much. This video is all I needed. You just made me so happy 😁

[@31xrg]

I’ve never understood designer’s preference for gold colours, especially in kitchens, though it seems to work here. I do like the curtains. Brilliant idea for prints and cord concealers! 7 pillows!? To me, the finished room looks better but cluttered.

[@suryasharma9193]

I'm obsessed with your work

[@charlottecates7116]

Just beautiful iI agree the picture is to small over bed!!!

[@Xela24]

Words can not even describe how amazing this makeover was. I'm in the middle of renovating my condo and you have given me so many amazing ideas and I've been trying to implement them as well as I go I still have a little bit more to go but it's starting to look more like home and thanks to your tips and tricks I'm really doing a great job, so thank you so much Kristen for all your videos. I can't wait to see more from you.
