ABOUT THIS EPISODE
This week we’re giving business coach Kylie Hodges and comedian Omar Nava a simple renter-friendly dining room makeover-with a zoom-worthy DIY accent wall that's straight from the dollar store. It’s bold. It’s colorful. It’s cheap. (But you'd never guess.) Watch the whole transformation, then try it yourself.

KATY YOU NAILED IT!!! I am so impressed and so grateful you gave us this beautiful space. Sometimes I just stand in the kitchen and stare at it and wonder how many grueling hours it took to measure out that grid. I’m so glad I didn’t have to do that lol. You did the lords work!!!

[@LaughCryDIY]

Thank you so much for letting me get wild. I can’t wait to Zoom with Mocha against that wall 😂❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@jonathancerda-rowell1697]

Mocha is my favorite character in this show.

[@LaughCryDIY]

She gets a second season

[@TheKylieHodges]

Should she become your permanent assistant??

[@QueerlyBeloved386]

That foil tray tip and how to apply contact paper around a round edge just changed the game for me.

[@angelusdragon6580]

You are hilariously amazing. How do you not have more subscribers?? This turned out GREAT...

[@LaughCryDIY]

Wow. You’re so nice. I just started a few months ago. Thanks so much for watching.

[@celestemarie8745]

That fan trick with the white contact paper? Genius.

[@LaughCryDIY]

Right?!

[@hnek]

05:48 this deadpan throwaway line got me!!😂

[@LaughCryDIY]

I love to bro out sometimes 😂

[@DoerteChantal]

I never DIY but I love watching other people doing it 😁 I love your videos 🥰 you are awesome!

[@LaughCryDIY]

Haha. Watching IS doing. ❤️

[@kimeejae]

L Boogie for the wall! Nice 😊 Love the wall and the accents. The place settings on the table are epic! Color blocking the dog bowl holder was genius. You definitely understood the assignment, Katy. Bravo, Queen👸🏼

[@LaughCryDIY]

Yesssss. We are Doo Wopping this dining room. 😂 ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@kimeejae]

@@LaughCryDIYohhhhh🤭 Respect!!!!

[@jessicajasper5527]

This is my favorite makeover so far!! Came out amazing. Also Mocha is a queen.

[@LaughCryDIY]

She sure is. Thank you so much 🙏

[@TheKylieHodges]

I told Mocha someone on the Internet called her a queen and she snotted on my foot, which means she’s flattered! TY!

[@joshuaboulden6288]

You love your contact paper lol

[@LaughCryDIY]

Contact paper and I are running away and getting married. I don’t care what anyone says.

[@bessburkhardt2093]

That is WAY awesome, cheery, functional and glorious. I have 3 cats 🐈 🐈‍⬛ 🐈 … our babies! I’ve heard people say that when you have children, you won’t care about your pets as much anymore. That is BS! I had a baby when I was 40, she is 13 now and we have never lost one ounce of love for our precious babies.

[@LaughCryDIY]

Aw, I love to hear this! I’ve always wondered what would happen when I start a family. I guess Baguette will always be my firstborn.

[@joanholly5002]

The internet is my best friend too! Great makeover!

[@LaughCryDIY]

I laugh my butt off watching you. I love your designs. You are so funny. You make my day. I'd love for you to help me with my studio.

[@LaughCryDIY]

Awww, Vickie! This is so nice. Thank you for watching my ridiculous ideas. More fun makeovers are coming!

[@shannonsullivan3553]

Jewel or Alanis!

[@LaughCryDIY]

We both totally assumed we’d go with Jewel, but Lauryn stole our hearts.

[@rasberryfields2132]

Another original & pretty room! I got excited when you went for the fan! 😱 I was so hoping you had a way to cover those ugly lights(I have the same kind)! Well, I am sure you will do that someday! However, just changing the blades made a huge difference! Keep up the good work! Take a vacation to Pickwick Lake, TN and you can help me with my tiny place! 😀🙏❤️✌️

[@LaughCryDIY]

Would love! I do wanna do an episode on changing ugly lighting. Someday!

@@rasberryfields2132 wow. You have the sweetest name! Glad you’re here ❤️

[@saraferreira-holz6375]

We took our fan apart, removed the metal bits and blades and spray painted everything. Came out great.

[@kmccoy1601]

That looks really nice! Blessings and Peace ❤️✝️

[@LaughCryDIY]

It was def one of my fave cheap hacks. 🙏

[@sibongilethwala7080]

Contact paper on the fan- I should have guessed.

[@LaughCryDIY]

I don’t contact paper everything, but when I do…(OK, I contact paper ALMOST everything).

[@michellepereira2328]

That small area made such a big impact. You would have had an easier time if you painted the frames with chalk paint.

[@LaughCryDIY]

Good to know for next time!

[@saharshams2497]

WOW girl you awesome 💟💟💟💟💟💟💟💟 Mocha 😆

[@LaughCryDIY]

❤️ send Mocha healing vibes 😂😭

[@shawnjackson6242]

You have to seal metallic spray paint with a clear

[@LaughCryDIY]

I thought that, but the spray paint I use specifically says says not to seal. (Paint people have told me the sealer has an element that will eat away at the metallic paint.) It’s all mysterious 🤷‍♀️

[@realrich7509]

Next time ya'll leave like that im sleeping on your couch😎 i like mocha

[@LaughCryDIY]

😂

[@olbird7647]

You broke their dog?!?😳 Other than that...GREAT job! 😊

[@LaughCryDIY]

🤦‍♀️ I’m still in therapy over it

[@widowswatch6610]

It looks better but rethink the wine cart in the background if her clients can see it.

[@LaughCryDIY]

Great catch! Fortunately, it doesn’t show. 🙂

[@rosamundg.3789]

Is dog sitting included in the design reno package? I noticed pups in another living room episode where the resident went out of town. Great value-added service! Have to say that the dogs look pretty underwhelmed with the disruption 😄--

[@LaughCryDIY]

Haha. Sometimes it’s just the added bonus. But it is fun how many pets make it into the makeovers.

[@cynthiabrown4327]

Kilz primer would have probably made the frame experience much less time consuming. I use it before I paint ANYTHING

[@LaughCryDIY]

You’re so right. Next time!

Good job by the way naming the lesbian Musical 4 Horsemen of the Apocalypse

Throwing away paint covered foil doesn't exactly "save the planet" seeing how foil takes 9+ yrs to BEGIN breaking down in landfill. Pay the 4$ & buy the planet friendly compostable paint tray inserts.

[@LaughCryDIY]

I actually didn’t know that compostable inserts existed. Thanks for the tip.
