Wow !! So nice... love the sage green!! You really did a great job !!! Stove / oven is a dream come true for all of you . Enjoy !!

[@jackistemper1419]

I forgot to mention the tin ceiling.. looks so pretty !

[@mommabear2many]

Thanks so much!

[@mommabear2many]

Thank you!

[@TheQueenVictoria62]

I thought you 'always' had this amazing stove. Life will be alittle easier with all the food prep. BTW, I love the Sage green!

[@mommabear2many]

Nope first canning season with it!

[@user-lh1sw4tu1k]

I had to laugh- we don't find projects to do, they find us! Your kitchen is looking fantastic. Your stove is going to save you so much time

[@mommabear2many]

Yes thank you so much!

[@stephencameron1709]

Kitchen looks wonderful! Nice job tiling. Well done. Val C

[@mommabear2many]

Thank you very much!

[@kelly-annejenner486]

I like that shade of green, I have a similar in my hallway and I think it looks nice you’ve done a good job, well done to the painting girls also! Over here you have to have a blood test to confirm pregnancy then you get booked in for a dating scan usually around 6-10weeks, then you have a growth scan and all the other checks around 20weeks and that’s it unless like me you have gestational diabetes then you have to have regular growth scans. With my first I saw my midwife and gp alternate quite frequently but then with subsequent pregnancies they say because you’ve done it before you don’t need seeing as often. Unfortunately that’s as far as my knowledge goes as I’ve only ever had 2 pregnancies.

[@christineclara6198]

Hey. I am really glad you followed my advice that painting make wonders. It will look like new. Happy for you

[@cheryllindley3990]

Love the new stove!! The cabinets and tile looks so fresh and nice.

[@mommabear2many]

Thanks so much!

[@normamccomas9272]

Absolutely lovely. Dearly love the stove!❤❤xxoo

[@mommabear2many]

Thanks so much!

[@lorriemolina9401]

I have whit doors all trim is white. I scrub them with bathroom cleaner from dollar tree. It works.

[@user-qv4lr8cw7h]

I really love the way your Kitchen turned out. It's Beautiful and your Budget for all your DIY Kitchen was Amazing.! I was way off on the New Stove, guessing the Price. Now to the Bathroom, I really like the Dark Green and the way you want to do 2 Separate Bathrooms in that very large one. You do have a group of younger Children, and you have some in the middle age group, also the Older and Grown Children you have would benefit and Truly Appreciate having an extra Bathroom separated by the wall and the Door. That would make them feel we have our own space now. Good Luck on that Bathroom Project, I can't Wait to see it completed.

[@mommabear2many]

Thank you hoping to buy the tub unit this week yay!

[@lin1038]

Awesome stove! A cooks dream! You are working so hard and so happy the kids are doing lots too! You have tons more patience than I would have…lol! Bravo!! 👏. 👋🇨🇦😊

[@mommabear2many]

Thank you!

[@micajahsmom]

I'm new to your channel and am enjoying watching your videos. The kitchen colors are just perfect. The shade of green just adds so much to the whole place. Looking forward to watching more. All my best to you and your very large family.

[@mommabear2many]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@barbararichmond8624]

Your kitchen look great.It will be nice to work in .

[@mommabear2many]

Yes it is!

[@nancycoy9510]

Your kitchen looks beautiful .

[@mommabear2many]

Thank you 😊

[@kittyrichards9915]

Tiling is a real talent. Great job.

[@mommabear2many]

Aww thank you! It has been years I was a bit worried but we got it done. The some of the kids learned too!

[@BeckyCreger-vs5ce]

I would have loved to have a stove like that when I lived on the acreage. I loved baking and cooking. I still do but now I am retired and live alone. I still like to bake and cook but for the most part, it's only for myself.

[@mommabear2many]

I’m sure you are a blessing to others with your cooking!

[@kimhamburger6097]

It looks great now. I love the stove.

[@mommabear2many]

Thank you!

[@VikingUffDa]

When it gets that cold I drip all the faucets, and also run the water (both hot and cold) off and on and flush the toilet every half hour all night long. I also run the washing machine a few times at night.

[@mommabear2many]

Yes they were dripping but I don’t flush all night, my downstairs with washer doesn’t freeze just that upstairs pipe it’s so annoying. We put space heaters in the bathroom and by the wall. Sigh.

[@jennifermathey416]

Oh my goodness!!! Your kitchen looks great. Love the sage green, and that stove is a dream come true. I'm sooooo happy for you all. What a loving family. God bless you.

[@mommabear2many]

Thanks so much!!

[@bethaspell1827]

Your gather sign looks like a forest green that might work instead of brown. Looks great

[@carolwhisenhunt7504]

The kitchen looks great! I know you are so excited. I'm so glad for you.

[@mommabear2many]

Yes! Thank you! The stove has been such a time saver. I can’t wait to cook all the things at once this weekend!

[@deettarichardson3682]

Your children are doing a wonderful job painting and the back splash looks great. What a stove you all are going to enjoy cooking on that.

[@mommabear2many]

Thanks so much 😊

[@debcross7162]

Ceramic tile very durable! Everything will beautiful

[@mommabear2many]

Thank you!

[@deniseodaniels7356]

love your kitchen! oh my! that stove is a dream come true! wow!! u scored!! i guessed 500$ cause i wanted it to be a super duper deal but it is anyway on your stove. ♥

[@mommabear2many]

Thank you! Our house is fairly small but it had a big kitchen and big downstairs bathroom with land at the right price. I’m so very thankful for my kitchen. Especially now people are bigger.

[@lhernan301]

When we remodeled my husband bought tools needed for the job. He than bartered the tools with the tradesman that we had to hire for their work and supplies. Great job on the kitchen.

[@halfpint5]

Great job , looks so nice ❤

[@mommabear2many]

Thank you! 😊

[@eileenalholinna5310]

I am so happy for you that you got that stove for only 800$!!! ❤

[@mommabear2many]

I love it!

[@TakeMetoTammysHouse]

I actually like the brown on the door frames. Very smart to do that.

[@mommabear2many]

Thank you! So far it’s covered a lot and wiped clean easily.

[@user-qf7qd4ti2h]

Oh how pretty .I love black and white . matches your counter perfectly. You're ready for spring now ! Lots of great improvements.

[@mommabear2many]

We should tell the weather I redid my kitchen so I’m ready for spring lol. Go away snow! 😂

[@kerryberry142]

Oh my gosh it looks amazing!!!! What a great example of a family coming together to get things done!

[@glennabell7563]

Love it so nice do your door in green

[@mommabear2many]

Thank you so much!

[@alinewright1093]

Maybe use acrylic paint on your door frames, very washable.

[@mommabear2many]

We will see how this does then decide in a year or two what to try next lol.

[@elissapoh7782]

I think you should do the doorways black like the cabinets… so you don’t have too many colors on there. I feel like brown would take away from the gorgeous colors you already picked. 3 colors in a room (green, black, off white) is lots. Nice stove! Love it. ❤

[@mommabear2many]

You are right it would be prettier with just off white and green but with 14 people here daily on a farm I had to color the doorways. I just went with it so far it hides stuff well and wipes clean.

[@kimberbeardsley156]

Great job, I'd add a black and white gingham valance over kitchen sink, paint brown cabinets and add white paint to brown counter and add black veining with paint. It looks great!!!

[@mommabear2many]

Maybe eventually currently this project is done and starting the next one. Oh the things to be done. I’ll keep it in the back of my mind though for the future.

[@aliciahorsepool4155]

The kitchen is so nice, love the green. Now that's a stove 😃 well done! Lovely job done by all Blessings to you all.

[@mommabear2many]

Thank you! You too!

[@kellanrevere]

WOW, you got a steal on that stove ! Congratulations 🎉 Kitchen is looking really great

[@mommabear2many]

Thanks so much!

[@Tmp130]

Love the green colour👍 Everyone did a great job on the kitchen.

[@mommabear2many]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@jessicakline-parker9609]

Your kitchen looks beautiful! Well done! I am always impressed by you resourcefulness and your frugality - I guessed $2000, but you snagged that stove for a steal! Great find!

[@mommabear2many]

Thanks so much! 😊. I hope you have a great day! Good guess!

[@sura-quayarbon6055]

Great find on the stove...I had guessed $750 so i was pretty close but I used to have a restaurant LOL I would recommend finding the casters for the stove (they lock) if your floor can take it so you can clean and do maintenance - they can be a little finicky and need love but will last forever. Line under the burners since it is all open with tin foil and that will make cleaning a lot easier. This update will be a big help and just nice to have!

[@mommabear2many]

Yes they had some furniture moving casters at the place I’m going to look next time I go in the city. Great idea!

[@shirleymaas5066]

kitchen is looking good painted last year

[@mommabear2many]

Thanks!

[@barbaral1486]

Very nice ! You are something else! Love that you are a very handy person ! Great job !

[@mommabear2many]

Thank you very much! Have a great day! I don’t know if I’m handy or to cheap to pay someone 😂

[@susancarr6224]

There are rubber gap liner type things that go between your stove and counter to keep food from getting between and making a mess of your stove and sides of your counters. That would probably work between the two counters where you have your bread making area.

[@mommabear2many]

That's a great idea! Thanks!

[@16CENTS561]

Love the sage green! It's my favorite color

[@mommabear2many]

I’m glad you like it! I honestly was so torn.

[@sheilacirioni4676]

How about black doorways..like your cupboards are black on bottom doesn't show dirt.😊

[@mommabear2many]

I may change it later. Family voted brown so I bought brown 😂

[@TakeMetoTammysHouse]

Love the sage color! Beautiful!⚘️⚘️

[@mommabear2many]

Thank you! 😊

[@kathyfournier5047]

What a Beautiful stove, you deserve that and you need it. The colors you choose are very nice as well. Great job, God Bless !!! 🙏🤗🙏

[@mommabear2many]

[@veronica1863]

White or off white door frames will look great, I know harder to keep clean. Or try o e door way with the brown and see what it looks like. I love the tile backsplash and everything else. Good job family

[@veronica1863]

I obviously posted this comment before I finished watching lol the brown looks good, I didn’t think it would but seeing it I like it alot

[@veronica1863]

What a steal for the store. Awesome find

[@angelafleming3328]

I think your kitchen looks so much brighter with the green and the cabinets work really well. My bedroom is that green color I love it. That stove is so nice! I would love a big stove like that I don't have a big enough kitchen for it. You did awesome on the backsplash. I think the stove is a $1000. I hope you have a great day!

[@mommabear2many]

Thanks! Great guess!

[@shelly7391]

Wowwwwwwww congrats!!!!! I've always wanted one of these in my kitchen but there's no way it would fit. LOL I'm so happy for you all!!!! So great!!!

[@mommabear2many]

Thanks so much!!

[@16CENTS561]

The outside of my house is sage green with cream trim!

[@mommabear2many]

Pretty!

[@maegardnermills4292]

Love your getting your nest ready again MommaBear2many. Have a baby puts you into that mother hen routine. I think a grey porch paint would be great for your white walls that turn dingy or whatever the word to use. Our first house we built had olive green paint and white and green stripped vinyl. wallpaper.

[@maegardnermills4292]

My kitchen has yellow walls and lower black cabinets.

[@diannegrimes1471]

That stove is awesome ❤

[@mommabear2many]

It really is! Thanks!

[@redgingerbreadpam]

Oh my your new kitchen is beautiful!! I love the color choices & yes it looks very homey like a farmhouse kitchen which I absolutely love. You & your children are amazing with all y'all accomplish. And at rock bottom savings. Projects....ughhh mine is packing up to move 800 miles. It'll end up costing me about the same or more than your whole kitchen redo. Uhaul truck, fuel & me doing all the labor. But Lord willing I'll get it done. And once settled I'll be right next to my daughter & grandkids again so I'm very happy about that.

[@mommabear2many]

Oh that will be so special!

[@kathynester5217]

Ur kitchen ceiling tiles are beautiful

[@mommabear2many]

Thank you so much 😊. One of the reasons we chose the house. I love them too! It’s like a piece of the past!

[@LRobinson5]

What about instead of brown do a darker green

[@user-qv4lr8cw7h]

I really like the Sage Green on the walls and the Off White on the Cabinets, keeping the lower Cabinets Black was a Great Idea. I like the idea of doing the Door Frames in a Darker Brown. I believe in the Color Scheme of Sage Green, Off, or Creamy White, and the Darker Brown would be Really Beautiful, and that would keep you from having to maintain a lighter color on the Door Frames. That would really get to be too much on top of everything else that you have going on, running a Household this large is in no means an Easy Task. I think you are doing a Great Job and your Family's help with the DIY Kitchen Project is Amazing and the Ladies helping with the Cooking. It takes a Village to raise a Family, and that is Exactly what you all are doing. I'm guessing you paid 15-18 Hundred Dollars for your new stove, and by the way. God might not be there when you want, but He's Always On Time ! . Maybe getting Stencils , to draw Kitchen Designs, and using the paint colors that you have in your New DIY Kitchen, That will make it Pop ! Don't get the Paper Decals, look into something more Durable for your younger Children, from Damaging them. Oh I almost forgot about the Back Splash, I Love It ! On the camera your cabinets on the other side of the kitchen look to be a Creamy White, which looks Good. Maybe a Creamy White on the Cabinet's, with the Darker Brown Door Frame, but not to Dark Brown. I just threw some suggestions out there, I hope they help. May God Always Bless You and Your Family !

[@aprilwright8056]

I was way over on my estimate!! You did a great job, the tile looks amazing I like the green!!

[@mommabear2many]

Thanks so much!

[@carolegranger6334]

2000$ love the kitchen awesome stove that is really perfect for your size family Congrats🎉🎉

[@mommabear2many]

Thanks so much!! Good guess although I’m glad I paid less!

[@Myfavorites877]

Maybe do your facings and stuff in a white, but in a scrubbable paint. A flat paint will always show fingerprints/marks. Never mind. The Brien looks good. The tile job turned out awesome!!! I think you could use a larger double cabinet above where you put the shelves where you make your sourdough bread. Who knows you might run across a free one!

[@mommabear2many]

Yes always keeping my eye out. That area was all gifted to us by my friend Sara.

[@VikingUffDa]

I’m so excited for you!

[@mommabear2many]

Thank you!

[@susanwilliams1881]

Looks lovely

Thank you so much!!

[@DenisdJones-nk9qm]

We have that. Its great

[@joanngreen9714]

I found some round lights at Walmart 2 in a pack under 10 dollars they come with 3 AAA batteries. Adhesive on the back you push them to turn them off and on, you don't have to take them down to change the batteries. I use them in my pantry and closet's. Just a idea, you did a good job on the kitchen that stove is what you need for canning and cooking for a large family. The tin ceiling is my favorite, I found those lights near the paint department they have different kinds it might work under your cabinets.

[@mommabear2many]

Thanks!

[@Jverburgh]

I love the colours in your kitchen. You did well with changing up your kitchen. What's next for changing up your home? I am excited.

[@mommabear2many]

Sneak peek is at the end of this video but we may do something with homesteading first

[@raisingpillars4427]

How about painting the walls white and trim,etc green or another color?

[@janhardginski990]

I like the kitchen!

[@mommabear2many]

Thank you! 😊

[@nicollealphonso9189]

Do black door frames

[@sherikubishta7326]

Beautiful stove! I say not over $750...just because you are very thrifty and it wasn't a necessity...lol...but it is a beautiful blessing for you! I was only pricing for the stove itself! Glad you will not ever have to buy another stove! Nice you got a great freshen up in the kitchen!!!

[@mommabear2many]

Fairly close! 😊

[@eileenalholinna5310]

We had a snowstorm in lower Michigan on March 22!

[@mommabear2many]

Ugg snow snow go away… come again next year! 😂😊

[@tinafisher-mf6db]

Love the stove..

[@mommabear2many]

Thank you!

[@VikingUffDa]

Great idea! It would be great if you could have both a bathtub and a shower - one in each room - or maybe keep that shower and put a tub in the other one - or put a shower upstairs. Yes! I’ve lived in remodeling and new building projects all my adult life. And the house I’m living in the lower level just got finished after almost 6 years. The stairway got moved, a full kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a laundry room got installed. In the meantime the upstairs is still in the process. A couple weeks ago my kitchen floor was installed in the middle of a house full of company that had come for my sister’s funeral. My pantry floor still isn’t finished so the contents of the lower part is in my kitchen table area. Every closet is being done so everything is in the middle of the bedrooms. So, I can totally relate. We built a dream house in our other town and lived in the basement for 4 years - 1 of those years I used a foil roasting pan to wash dishes. We have also flipped several houses. My kids grew up crawling into crawl spaces sending wires and pipes up to their dad. So it would be nice to see the floor plan to see what can be configured. I like your plan. Think outside of the box. My husband was military but is also an architect and my daughter has a degree in architecture. When she was a little girl in AWANA she had to memorize John 14. She told the person who listened to her, “In my Father’s house are many mansions. I go to repair them for you.” Ha! That is all my kids have ever known. She did a wonderful job in painting techniques in our dream house. Life has taken a turn and we now live in a different state - in a different situation. I know in Heaven we will have a mansion that won’t need to be repaired.

[@mommabear2many]

lol oh what a sweet little girl! Out of the mouth of babes. We used to have a stall shower upstairs and took it out because of the pipe freeze issue. It’s a really weird set up we may end up doing 2. But our funds are limited. My husband really struggles when projects are mid project. I think if I do the smaller bathroom with the tub completely then decide more on the other bathroom. Showers don’t tend to be an issue here but toilets do. Another option is if I take out that long closet I could make a small bath off the older girls room. Oh the decisions!

[@debcross7162]

Semigloss paint to trim!

[@debcross7162]

Love that green

[@debcross7162]

Doing ceramic tile to bathroom floor then repaint bathroom

[@jenniferbanks2241]

I love the new look. I think you should keep the door frames white but I do know the struggle of keeping it clean and I only have two little ones. I’ve been watching a channel called Partin’s Heritage Homestead and her husband is T2, I know sweet pea is T1, but she l looked into milking her own grains from wheat berries because she learned that the commercial floor is stripped off so much stuff in order to be able to keep it “fresh” longer. She makes breads and tortillas, she even made a sour dough starter for her and her husband and it doesn’t affect his blood sugars. She made pasta with fresh milled kamut wheat and it didn’t affect him either. I’m not sure if you have a mill but it would certainly be worth looking into seeing if it will help sweet pea live a more “normal” life. I’m not quite sure how T1 differs from T2 as far as foods you can eat. I’m T2 but I can’t afford a mill 😂. It’s on my list though.

[@mommabear2many]

Yes a few years ago I ground all my own grains did sourdough ect. There’s a good movie called what’s with the wheat? After some issues we went gluten free and WOW what a change with autoimmune diseases and skin problems. So I’m making gluten free sorghum sourdough bread. But mainly just not eating too many bread products.

[@beverlybrezina1312]

I like the white doorways, but maybe u should use satin or semigloss paint. It will be easier to clean.

[@mommabear2many]

I ended with brown I did a semigloss high quality paint from serwin Williams so I hope it will work well.

[@rhondaboggs5539]

I'm shocked at the price that you got the stove for, cause I was thinking about $1,500. But when you said $800,I about fell out of my chair lol Bargain shopping at it's best. Your kitchen looks really good. I especially love the green ❤ Can't wait to see what you come up with for the bathroom.😊

[@mommabear2many]

Aww thanks so much! Yes I feel like it was a great deal!

[@Missycookingonabudget]

Praise the Lord ❤what a blessing ❤️

[@mommabear2many]

Yes thank you!

[@sherylh4780]

$1500 for the stove. I have LED strip lights that comes on a roll lighting under my cupboards and above and it really lights up my kitchen. Amazon sells it. And $800 for the stove is really a good price. Your tile job is very good.

[@mommabear2many]

Thanks! I’ll look into that!

[@tammybaker8089]

White trim

[@tinapennington1587]

I think when you own a house the projects never end 😂

[@mommabear2many]

So true!

[@sheilacirioni4676]

American standard is a great company..That is my new air conditioner.😊

[@chrisripperger3250]

What a beautiful stove! Such a blessing! I bet you had to pay at least 3,000.

[@mommabear2many]

Yay I Love that I was under your estimate!😊. Good guess though!
