Okay hear me out, if you can figure out how to replace the junction box or attach the chandelier to the existing one, find a longer chain that matches the light, and swag the light so it’s centered above the stairs. That light is too gorgeous not to be used.

[@sandieedward993]

Now that sounds like one great plan 👌

[@ladymario]

How did Kelsie get the screws that were coming from under the stairs out? Also my thoughts: stain the railing to match the stair treads, use the chandelier you intended to originally but get a longer chain and hook it to be off-center because even without a chandelier, that light being in the middle of the railing looks so odd. The new entertainment room door is amazing!

[@AnnekeOosterink]

Yeah, sometimes things just fight you. It sucks.

[@danicourtnay]

Maybe doing a very dark charcol for the risers? Bringing up the color from the darker tile colour.

[@vichidaroch6751]

Yes even a dark green would look good to match the house!!!

[@tiedyeeyes1992]

@@vichidaroch6751 I was thinking a dark ox blood or burgundy!

[@md92.]

What about a gradient green? Starting with the darkest color at the bottom of the stairs. 😊

[@anksters]

Yes, this is exactly what I was thinking. Maybe something close to the grout from the penny tiles!

[@canwejustnot]

Agree! It would also be cool to paint same of the hexagon shapes on the rises. Maybe inverted from the floor. So dark background and a couple small white hexagons in the middle of a riser. With alternating amounts of hexagons

[@necroprance5253]

If you ever do glass in your own door again, use glazier points to hold the glass in! I do stained glass as my full time gig, and you should never trust just silicone to hold in big pieces of glass without nailing in trim either. Hopefully it goes well, but you can definitely nail it in with finishing nails after the fact!

[@evewithwonder]

- The conversation with Milo was the best part, ngl 😂 - I'm with Eliott on this one, it's a dock on water - Love the hook rail hack, looks great - A different color for the raisers sounds good! The white looks different from the baseboards white, even though I'm sure it's the same color. The baseboards look warmer.

[@AnnekeOosterink]

Yeah, the same colour can look very differently if the angle is different. Especially white, since that reflects the colour of the light so much. A slightly different angle of light and how the shade falls changes the colour a lot.

Re: stain rag safety - A lot of paint stores sell empty quart paint cans, or give them away for free. If you know you have a large stain project coming up, pick up a quart can from your local paint store. Certain hardware stores can help you safely dispose of stain rags, as well.

The beautiful thing about art is that, it doesn't matter what it IS. What matters, is how it makes you FEEL.

[@Adrienne.Granados]

Okay so, I usually skip ads but you did a great job with it! Your presence is so natural it doesn’t feel like an ad, and I really loved revisiting the details of your kitchen in each shot. Also looove the hidden appliances - does the heat output not cause any issues? I’ve wondered about doing that with my coffee maker but wonder about the base of the cabinet above. Alsooo I’m with Elliot, it’s a dock on water🙃 But could easily pass as both 😉 P.s. mad props for normalizing not spending on everything you want and prioritizing a budget when unforeseen issues come up. Love a responsible queen.

[@brandilewis3498]

The glass door is EVERYTHING!! Beautiful. Love the striped mirror! Another amazing piece of HOME!

[@Nintendalie]

I absolutely love this project. It was like every home reno project I've ever done. 6 steps back, 4 trips to the hardware store, a lot of improvising and frustration before the finished products. 😂😂

[@LarrietDarling]

I think Elliot is right, that it's a floating dock, but I also thought it was an above ground pool at first glance! It's a shame that light didn't work, because it's sooooo gorgeous! I love how it's antique, but it's not overly ornate in the metal work. Could you possibly remove a couple of links of the chain to hang it higher so Elliot doesn't jump under it and bump his head? Other than that, maybe some kind of glass/crystal globe style of light that has a more antiquey feel and maybe goes with the new glass in the media room door? Or, like, an antique 3-bulb ceiling light? I'm sad the light didn't just work right away! But your stairs look AMAZING!! And I like the coat and bag rails.

[@woin9361]

4:17 at this stage I just want to hype Kelsey up by saying, girl, your house looks gorgeous and every dirty, time-consuming project has made such a huge impact. These obstacles are so ugh and overwhelming when you discover them, but there’s nothing you can’t do! You are the most tenacious of the TSG crew and I love you for that ❤ you can do it 💪

[@avjohnson]

[@SequoiaSummer]

Paint each step a like moody jewel tone that is a statement in your house, like the cream, red(from today), green (the walls in the media room) etc. Almost like a color pallet for your house. Idk I feel like it could be cool.

[@evhill4716]

Chatting with Milo was everything 🤣

[@sandrakicklighter2735]

I feel your pain. I had almost 10k in fixing the plumbing because of roots invading my underground plumbing. Made me want to cry. Still does. Also, why hide the production equipment? I actually like to see how you make things happen. I get sometimes it makes no sense, but in these make-over in action, I appreciate seeing all of how you make it happen.

[@arlenegibson9158]

A lot of the homes where my mom lived had the same issue with basements getting water. It was the roots from the trees getting into the piping. So that might be your problem too. It cost about $5000 to have it fixed. Her yard was a huge mess. This was in Oregon. It might be because of the piping they used.

[@PatrickBurchill]

I honestly love when you folks show the struggles with renovations. The amount of 'WE GOT IT!... never mind' that is involved with every project is so real and inevitable.

[@vernieplummer5148]

Kelsey, I just did a Google search with ornate lights that don’t hang down much. You should have seen the plethora of cool stuff. If your light can’t hang down, many of these crawl along the ceiling or spread out in other ways. They were so different and interesting.

[@dorrolorro]

Oh I was really looking forward to the ceiling medallion! You might be able to put any pendant lighting above the stairs if you are ok with a cord running from the junction box. You might even be able to use the medallion to hide the cord. Would also love a pop of color, perhaps a cool accent wall? Maybe sage green paint or a wallpaper. The railing and the handrail could be the same wood tone as the staircase, so that it cohesive from both floors

[@littleblessingshomestead5138]

I think you should move the junction box and use the light fixture you had planned. If you want more light for up in the hall, maybe add a sconce

[@paulas_lens]

If Kelsey has attic access it wouldn't be *that* hard to fix the placement of the junction box.

would it be possible to buy veneer for the stair risers and stain them to match the treads? that way you can still have them be wood but…actually nice! also i cant believe i came in when you guys were just moving into the old loft with the ~mezzanine~ and now here we are in kelsey’s actual finished home. what a ride!! now pull a becky and buy another house so we can get even more makeovers hahahaha

Art is subjective, in the eye of the beholder etc, but that piece of art is definitely a dock/pontoon on the water 😅 And the restored door is absolutely beautiful, my favourite!

[@claireflynn6045]

If you used Rachel's Emma Chamberlain chandelier diy in the hallway, you could custom hang it so the shorter pieces were hanging on the second level and the longer pieces hung in the stairwell! Would make for a fun pop of color and would play off the eclectic scandi vibes from the mirror diy!

[@TheSorryGirls]

great suggestion!!

[@marghART]

I was going to suggest something like that, but swag the light so it hangs over the stairs. My old house has odd light boxes so I have swagged all my lights to make the space and lighting work.

[@whatsername9590]

1)paint the top of the stairs, a really dark green color. I think it would be a nice way to tie the house together. You could even use the leftover wall paint from the media room. 2) you could do something similar to Racheal’s DIY acrylic chain light. It could help activate the ceiling space, and you can adjust them so they don’t hit anyone’s head

[@jacquic203]

I think the chain light actually used to live in that exact spot 😂

[@AnnekeOosterink]

As someone who spent weeks and weeks working on stairs, I feel you when you sighed at the stairs 😅 Our stairs were carpeted at some point, with lots of glue and nothing we did got rid of it, so we ended up having to put on those little half moon steps of carpet. I don't love them, but because our stairs makes a weird bend, a runner would have to be custom. That was going to cost thousands and just not an option (not in our budget, perhaps in a few years when the rest of the house is done), but the glue still needed to be covered. We did do a fun colour, because I love colour. The stairs were kind of beige-ish yellowish cream before (and dark blue and dusty pink and brick red from the previous owner) so we decided to take the yellow and run with it. Our stairs are bright yellow right now. As in, the yellow of turmeric, on the golden yellow end of the spectrum, and honestly? I love it. All the art in the stairwell is in black and white, the heating cover is white, the giant mirror is black, the design vase my mother gifted me is black glass, so a giant pop of colour works in the space. It's also a fairly dark space, and the light that does reach it is fairly cold, so a bright warm colour felt warranted. 😊 The job did become so much bigger than it was at first though, because the stairs were going to be painted we had to also paint all the other wood in the area, as it's all connected, and was all the cream before. The underside of the attic stairs needed to be painted as well, and the door frame at the top of the stairs too. We had to remove all the art from the walls, which led us to some cracks and dents in the wall that I filled in, but that meant the wall needed to be painted... So you know, endlessly expanding task... I'm glad it's all done now, but for us it wasn't the last job on the list sadly. We've got a kitchen, a bathroom, an attic, and a garden that aren't unusable but need to be updated or even completely renovated in case of the bathroom. So I'm looking forward to be able to say that I'm working on the last space in my home. 😁

[@hannahlasseter5444]

i think a warm but slightly muted lime green would be so enchanting on the risers. it would give a fresh and lively feeling coming into the home and draw your eye up into the space more; and i know green is your favorite!

[@claudiaxo6165]

Loved the transformation, “minimal” but you can see the difference. For the stairs I think playing with the tiles you have in the landing would be a fun choice.

[@ruanvantonder8969]

I feel like you could just paint on the existing light fixture to match the mirror. Also, that beige colour would look good on the stairs. Perhaps better and warmer than the straight up white.

[@vernieplummer5148]

[@aimsly86]

Love! The risers turned out SO good - what a lucky score on them being in such good condition underneath! In terms of colours - a "medium dark colour"...like green??? No shade, honest -- it's where my mind went instantly and could look so good! ♥

[@nikolagostojic1000]

I remember when you were in renovation stages this series literally raised me, it will be missed 😢❤

[@dajanagrbic9299]

For the risers, I think it would look really good *and* cohesive if you painted a mock-pattern identical to the tile you put in the hallway. (The small black hexagons with the white background) This way, you wouldn't have to get rid of the white, it would tie the gorgeous floor with the upstairs area and, last but not least, it would be an interesting but inobtrusive pattern.

[@MalakaiWade]

You could do a cute flush mount a la AG for the light! And a dark reddish pink could look really nice on the stairs and tie into the warmth of the wood door and the red/cream of the mirror.

[@hikingwithmel336]

As you mentioned , there are approved metal cans for rag storage, you may want one for your shop, but you can also use a small metal garbage can with a tight fitting lid to store your rags. This would be for rags only, no other refuse. That way if it did combust it is in a fully enclosed metal can. Amazing work on the house! You ladies are awesome!

[@Shooshoobella7]

Been watching this since you bought the house and I have to say that it's been my favorite series on your channel. I love your house and the way you've renovated it to your style. I also don't think that a house is ever totally "finished", so I have a feeling that this is not the end of this series. I think a darker color on the stair risers would look good, and I personally would do a gallery wall on the stair wall (like Becky did in her old house), but that's me, as I don't like big expanses of open wall space.

[@Ddrhl]

It's a swim platform in a lake. The palest version of the green you love would look great on the risers. Well done!

[@roxiepoe9586]

This has been a lesson is being a strong woman who does not give up and just gets the job done with an amazing result that is so worth the effort but might not have been done if you had known just how difficult the whole thing was going to be but thank goodness you didn't know and just did the job because it is lovely! :)

[@nikkislovesyou]

Staining the railing and new outlet covers would also really tie everything together/further elevate the staircase area. :) I LOVE the media room door, fantastic solve for that issue Kelsey. Also, I agree with what others have said about either moving the junction box or getting a longer matching chain for the chandelier light you bought; its too fabulous not to be used!! ❤

[@carolyndietrich8214]

All your hard work paid off! What a transformation! Stripping the door and adding glass panels was genius. I love the long mirror having a striped frame and the Ikea hack for hanging coats and other items up. You made a dull space pop. I think a darker color instead of white for the stair risers would be good. The white draws your eye away from the wood steps. Maybe a darker color would prevent that. ❤

[@meganwilliams9139]

First it looks absolutely stunnnning as per usual, Rochelle you are an incredible incredible talent!!

[@lindap9079]

I thought the art was an above the ground pool too. Although I've never seen a square one. But now that you mentioned that it's a swim platform on the water, I think I need to change my mind. The makeover process may have had its hiccups, but , if everything went smoothly you wouldn't have such good stories to tell. I agree, staining and adding glass to the door is the best part of the makeover. I'm so sorry the light fixture won't work in that space. The brass is so beautiful.

What does it matter what the 'above pool' picture is. If you love it, and it brings happy memories, that's all that matters.

[@rocioiribe5841]

it's an above ground pool. the risers, maybe a green that matches your living room. and a flush mount would work but maybe something circular but bigger so it encompasses part of the hallway and over the stairs (like straddling both). PS- also the railing is screaming to be in a black finish to match your floor tiles and now your coat rail.

[@avivat3010]

I love the way you've brought the house together. The media room door is my fave too. The stain colour is perfect and it looks great on the stairs too. Although electricity is a difficult thing to deal with, I think the effort to move the electrical box is a smart idea. Swagging it until you can is a good temporary fix, but will you end up fixing it in the end? The same with the closet doors - could you sand a long edge of the doors to get them to fit right? Although I hate doing these things too, it's always an extra feeling of satisfaction to do it right. It's up to you, no judgement.

[@sarahsmadamssss]

I have watched your house turn into a home and it’s been such fun. I think that mirror was inspired and it’s beautiful. The door is amazing! Unfortunately, I think this means you’ll probably move soon because that’s what everybody does but I love that little house. It’s cute.

[@robynw6307]

I think I agree that the picture is a dock on water. Mainly because I think a square above ground pool would collapse under the pressure of the water.. That mirror is to die for, and the coat rail is genius. The door, love the door, and you need to swag the light across to over the stairs.

[@Mesmerise.]

The mirror makeover is awesome! For the stairs - I'd keep them white. Making them darker would compete with other dark woody colours in the space, and dark would make the space feel smaller.

[@BeverlyDuke-z5f]

Since you asked: 1. Above ground pool has my vote. That was my first though 2. Lamp: a. paint stripes on the shade similar to those on the mirror. b. remove a few links from the vintage hanging lamp to allow clearance between the lamp and your and your friends noggins😂. c. Buy a new lamp, donate the original, and find a new location for the vintage lamp. It is gorgeous. 3. loved the glass in the door. perfect ❤

[@123HeyitsBri]

Oh my goodness EVERYTHING THAT COULD GO WRONG DID 😭 Honestly good on you for pushing through. I think a light fixture that you can like drape and hang more centered over the stairs would be ideal. Picturing a giant globe light kinda more Becky’s style though 🙈

[@IGrowGiants]

Thank you for posting the cursed makeover! Because I know I've had at least 1 a year and I'm sure I'm not alone. I feel your frustration but I've always found the makeover AFTER the cursed makeover, goes faster and better than you planned for. Oh! I think you should paint the risers the same 2 colours as your mirror frame.

23:47 Thank you so much for talking about safety. Not enough KZbinrs do this. I had nooo idea about the stain rags either until the last year or so. Thankfully I never throw my rags out so they always end up drying fully between uses, but if I did throw any out, I definitely would have just tossed them straight in the trash 😬

[@heathergrilley7921]

A. That’s for sure an above ground pool. B. Huge round shallow flush mount drum pendant for stairway light. C. 100% accent color on the risers. Suggesting a reconsideration of some kind of pattern as I think, the black-and-white subtlety of the entryway can handle it.

So we are currently in our 3rd home. Had the same problem in our second home of the junction box being off center in the ceiling. The first one was way off center from the island I built. The second one was off center from the kitchen table. I purchased the same kind of dome light, with a long chain. I put a cup hook into the ceiling stud to center the light. Wired, attached top piece to ceiling, let several links hang bit before putting a link through the cup hook and the lamp came down to the correct height over the island and the table centered! It looks great centered. The swoop of links is fine. I have to see things centered!

Yes on the darker riser! And I feel like I’ve seen some great lighting options from AGater that would work in your hallway :) Amazing job on the door btw 👌🏻
