SMALL ENTRYWAY MAKEOVER! DIY BUILT-IN ARCH AND SHELVES *removable + renter-friendly*

For 50% off subscription items in your first Care/of order, visit bit.ly/3IgBINL and use code TINA50
We are working on a makeover that I honestly am SO excited about because it’s literally the first thing you see when you come to our home and that is the entryway. I’ve been really focusing on setting the tone, so whether I’m walking upstairs or in between rooms, you are always passing this area. And it usually gets piled up with stuff when we come home, so it was definitely time. We are going to create a DIY removable arch AND also faux built-in shelves, all while making it renter-friendly! Let's do it!

[@TinaandBrian]

There is no way that this is our home ❤ it came out so legit and I’m always proud of you! Still blown away, babe!

[@tinalemac]

Hehehe, I still can’t believe it either!! Thank you honey 🥹💛

[@donnabacon4681]

​@@Stacy_RomeroI am confused by your comment. Brian is complimenting his wife; how does your comment relate?

[@jgordy4840]

Great job fitting those shelves!

[@ophelia....]

Oh my gosh this is so beautiful. When you move out, the owner may even want to keep some of your changes, it would serve him to do so, in my opinion. Make sure you check with them first before you revert back to what it was!

[@donnabacon4681]

Thinking that as well...could be even better selling points!

[@jasmynerobinson6716]

I will forever love how innovative you are!! The paint and stain combo is perfect! 😍😍

[@tinalemac]

Thank you so much, Jasmyne!! The combo is making me wanna stain everything dark now 😍

[@kendiholloway2378]

This looks so well done, very professional. Some soft downlights inside would also look cute.

[@donnabacon4681]

Great ideas! The down lightss will give this a certain ambiance.

[@Patti-1962]

This is my favorite renter friendly project of yours, hands down!! It literally looks like it has always been there, which is the best compliment I can give. You are definitely adding warmth to a very cool toned place, and this will help so much. I love learning about materials, like the super thin boards that were so inexpensive, but looked amazing painted and stained. And the techniques were genius!! 🤩❤❤❤

[@tinalemac]

Thank you, Patti!! That is always my goal with these makeovers--to make it feel warmer 🙈

[@Idontwantachann]

Wow! You really made a solution and it's pretty awesome. That space was begging for beauty.

[@madelynvazquez9006]

Tina, what can I say? You are so talented and always inspiring to me and encouraging me to try new things. Thanks for sharing your projects with us💪👍👏😍

[@tinalemac]

🥺🥺🥺 Awwwww, you are so super sweet!!! Thank you for the love and support always 💛

[@donnamcknight3175]

Wow, I thought it was a lot of steps but now I see why!!! Another great one!

[@teresawilliams1201]

This might have been the most impressive solution to a renter problem I’ve seen you do! But who I’m I kidding I’m impressed with every video 👏🏼 💪🏼. Edited to add: maybe a large painted canvas, or fiber art by you, would add color and texture 😊

[@tinalemac]

Thank you so much, Teresa!! 💛

[@markellwilliams3594]

Yes darling take care of yourself because we need these ideas.. yall are too sweet. I love all your ideas and DIY’s. Have a blessed week my darlings ❤🙏🏽

[@jeanettevega7560]

😮 WOWWWW..U DID A BEAUTIFUL JOB ON THIS ENTRY WAY...😊 U ALWAYS DO SUCH A BEAUTIFUL JOB ON EVERYTHING THAT U DO..THERES NOTHING THAT U CANT DO..U R SUCH AN INSPIRATION TO OTHERS 😊 KEEP UP THE AMAZING JOB THAT U DO ❤ LOOK FOWARD TO SEEING UR NEXT VIDEO MUCH APPRECIATED N MUCH LOVE ❤

[@mariannerady1137]

Great job! I love that you tried it renter-friendly and also cheap. Looks lovely!

[@kolitiokada9825]

Hey Tina! Love how the wall color matches your apron! Awesome "removable built-in"!

[@PHcute]

Literally the same colour 😂 at least on camera… I would have painted the white outlet cover too but hey

[@celestelauryn]

Tina this is seriously stunning! You are incredibly talented and creative!

[@flaviamovsessian2216]

This is one is your best yet!!! I would put a lamp in the corner 😊

[@tinalemac]

Thank you so much!! And I was thinking of that too! Gotta find the right one 😍

[@purplewombat1923]

Your entryway makeover looks lovely, Tina!

[@suewestbrook1067]

Love this so much, please, do a hall Reno. Those doors need some peel and stick.

[@lovealwaysmom]

You're lucky to be able to paint your walls. All the apartment complexs I've lived in didn't allow any painting. My current place goes so far that all blinds can't come down. You can put up window covering so long as it sandwiches the blinds. - window, blinds, covering. Yes, staging is nice. But real life is true. Please show us how you really use this area.

[@lisanathan8764]

You are really an amazing human! I love watching your videos.

[@nicolehubbard3536]

Remarkable that this is installed with command strips! They should sponsor you for all the unique ways you use their strips.

[@TheSandy436]

Wow! Tina really popped off with this one! The “build-in” looks so seamless!

[@tinalemac]

Thank you so much, Sandy!! 💛

[@froggybryce]

we love the eternal sunshine playing in the background!!!

[@tinalemac]

I’m obsessed with it at the moment!! 😍😍

[@cordeliastrizak6628]

Once again you have blown me away. Great job ❤❤

[@donnafuller3029]

Looks great! Your a real talent girl 😊

[@wandarivera4016]

Tina it came out beautiful you always do amazing work thankyou for sharing 😊

[@IEverWantMusic]

The outcome is stunning!! 🤩🤩

[@murcolmhogres6641]

thisss is super duper cutee !! 🥺♥️ thanks for the ideas. i wanna make one for myself !! 😫♥️

[@brigidhuey5985]

You are so clever! I love watching you work. Such a fun nook ❤

[@hollyhasegawa6095]

Oh my gosh Tina, this is so gorgeous I am really loving this entryway makeover, the colors are beautiful and it is so great to use for wonderful things, love that arch and those shelves are so much better than the empty space to begin with. Thanks once again for this wonderful video that I had so so much fun watching, Brian is so wonderful in loving all the creative things you do. And I have to tell you that the beautiful flower picture that I won from you makes me so happy to see it everyday and that's because of where I have it hanging on my wall. I am wishing you a beautiful and blessed rest of your day, sending love and hugs, bye! 😄😂😍🤗💜💖💞👋👍👏

[@tinalemac]

Thank you so so so much, Holly! Glad you are enjoying a piece of my art in your home 🥰 Appreciate the love!! 💛

[@elinakatarii]

Omg Tinaaaaa! What a stunning little nook I can’t! 😍😍 I’m obsessed with arches and I still have none of them in my home 😩 I’m now wondering if I could do something like this instead of messing around with drywall and mudding tape etc 😆👀 I’m desperate for one! Yours looks AWESOME! ❤❤

[@tinalemac]

Yesssss, this is such a great way to create an arch if you want a more simple approach!! So happy you love it as much as I do 🥰💛

[@avigailsumaylo6253]

That looks so amazing!! I agree it looks like it was built-in. Great color choice & it matches your outfit you had on in the end. 😍❤😍👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼😎

[@carolschlosser2716]

Wow Tina!!!🥰 I am inspired. 🏆🎖

[@innatelyindigo]

It looks fantastic! I would add a light inside it.

[@kimcarter7567]

Love, love, love!

[@djsabin9346]

I think Mom's "Lucky Cat" should be in the Corner by the outlet. You are blessed, greeted & receive the Luck every time you enter your work space. Everything you do since Your beginning is Positively Inspiring, Functional & Beautifully Cultured by the places you come from, experience & modify into your lifestyle. Thank You for sharing such delights.

[@TheClutterLady]

It's so pretty! I wanted to see a clip of it with your shoes on the shelves, though!

[@nadinemclaren2057]

It turned out so so beautiful...❤

[@cynthiavan-dunem3169]

This is so damn Gorgeous Tina!!! You never cease to dazzle us with your talent ❤

[@vmreel]

Such an inspriation!

[@kelseyb8426]

You should put a light under the arch! I love plants so personally I would probably put a plant light there then add some plants to the space. Or you could skip the cords and put some cheap battery powered lights.

[@tonyascott602]

Wow! So creative and cute!!

[@mariajosemanganaro]

You are incredible! You are my inspiration. Thank you Tina 🥰

[@tinalemac]

Wow, thank you, Maria!!! You are so kind 😭💛

[@melissap9221]

Looks so good!

[@BoudicasQuest]

a nice gold color at the entrance is excellent feng shui-not that this was your aim, I'm just thinking of how well your design will help your family ~

[@reneejones2183]

This is so ceative and it looks high-end.

[@inaskatze8076]

It Looks so so Good, love it 👍🍀🥰

[@mssaylav1]

AMAZING 😮

[@donnabacon4681]

Tina! So pretty!! I agree with one commenter anout using soft downward lights; it'll add a bit more ambience.

[@suzzannelemarier3350]

Another great job,Tina

[@lyndsaymonique2505]

Amazingly done Tina!! You're DIY skills and attitude towards creating are inspiring!! Maybe a new rug runner and a cute DIY light like your flower light for your new entry

[@rhaps2008]

Amazing job!😍

[@JulyMoon82]

This looks amazing. This looks like it should have always been this way. Incredible work, Mrs. Tina!

[@vitjituandjiharine1823]

Love this! And lovely to see you embrace color and darker wood tones.

[@novellawilson5138]

I love it Tina. Great use of space ❤

[@tinalemac]

Thank you so much!!! 💛💛

[@Sooz1234]

Great project! Didn't think you could make that renter friendly, but you did. I'd say you have earned the right through your hard work to treat yourself to a paint fan deck! Saves so much time!

[@tinalemac]

I really should look into getting one 🙈

[@silverfox70]

Tina beautiful you truly need your own furniture and wood shop business love this project!

[@tinalemac]

You are too kind!! Thank you 💛

[@chantalmartin32]

Loved this

[@Sadie_Kelly]

AMazing and inspiring! I love it! I want one now.

[@_JanetLouise]

Amazing ambition and skills ... good for you! ... Beautiful.

[@alee9961]

You are "The Great Renter Friendly Project Guru!" Just Amazing! 👏👏🤗

[@lenac6999]

It's absolutely incredible, especially being renter friendly!

[@liebesonne_]

This really is a remarkable diy makeover. I've wondered about creating your own "studs", so seeing it executed so well is awesome. And you styled it in a simple but interesting way.

[@vickytimmerman1365]

About 2 months ago I started using Care of because you mentioned it and I'm very happy thanks!

[@elizabethrosado4602]

So proud of You!! Love your videos 😊!!

[@AutumnLucas75]

Love it! I'd add a hanging plant 😄

[@lovingmayberry307]

"Antique Penny"? Not hardly, more like Pumpkin, but I still love the reveal! 🧡

[@gwendleburks8904]

It beautiful ❤

[@Devika387]

Osm project! and ur hair is sooo prettyyyy❤

[@tinalemac]

Thank you so much!! 💛

[@yari139]

Girl, there was plenty of room for you in that trunk. 😂😂😂

[@tinalemac]

Hahah!! That’s what I told Brian too, but he didn’t want me to 😂🙈

[@amandakesterson224]

I needed inspiration to start working for the day on my Den. You inspired me a few months ago and while it has been slow going over these months as a new mom as well, I am so happy with how its going. I'm learning so much and having great "me" time.

[@tinalemac]

Congrats on being a new mom, girly!! That is amazing that you are finding “me time” in DIY 💛💛

[@lindaroyal8161]

That's a great use of that space, it looks really good and perfect drop zone. Nicely done!

[@nicolerenee7105]

I guessed wrong I said patio lol but I’m still happy to see whatever you makeover, it’s always so beautiful!

[@tinalemac]

Thank you so much, Nicole 💛💛

[@amberfrazier575]

If you find a perfect color to light or too dark have them dilute with white by a percentage like add 20% white.or add a touch of black.

[@wibblywobblyida]

Looks great!

[@DIY_Diaries_]

I know this is such a weird thing to say, but I am so curious what it looks like when you are angry or in a bad mood because I literally cannot imagine it! I hope you are truly as happy as you always seem! ❤ This looks amazing btw! You have inspired so many of my projects!!!

[@tinalemac]

Hahha, you are so sweet!! And generally, I am a pretty happy person 😂 But of course, I have my bad days too! Thank you for the love 💛💛

[@juliebey8240]

Look what “we” made…girl you did this all on your own! And continue to inspire us as well😊👏👍🥰

[@tinalemac]

Hehehe, y'all are there supporting me the whole time, so I always feel like we are making it together 🥺💛💛💛💛

[@imdebmccann]

I love the way the entry turned out! So very creative. I love your content and jump on right when I see it posted. The only addition the entry needs is one of those motion activated lights like you put in the closet of your last place. It would be great to walk in, set your purse or keys on the table---and wooohooo a light comes on. it would also enhance your beautiful arch. Cant wait to see what's next.

[@tinalemac]

Thanks so much for all the love and support!! Appreciate your feedback and glad you enjoyed this makeover 💛

[@alexispennings380]

Looks really lovely. I personally think I would have liked to arch to sit higher as it closed down the space some, but I know you weren’t really using the parts you couldn’t reach so that may be why you put it that height.

[@thibault1875]

omg yes I heard it listening to eternal sunshine while cutting the wood so real for that

[@tinalemac]

I have it on repeat right now!! So good 😍

[@thibault1875]

[@prettylittlepleasures]

This looks BEAUTIFUL Tina!!! This is one of my favorite DIYs you’ve done!!! Well done!!!! ❤

[@hunterjenkins1711]

So pretty!!

[@cyndij8312]

So pretty and functional. The landlord should keep this when you move. The next tenant would love the storage at the bottom. You did another entry in this apartment. I'll have to go back to that video to see where that was is.

[@mommygarcia9137]

Wow Tina ! I cannot get over how talented & creative you are ! It looks sooooo beautiful ! I’m loving the brown ! All I can say is Oh Wow Girl !

[@tinalemac]

You are so sweet!! Thank you 🥺💛

[@Just-YOLANDA-T.C]

Absolutely mind-blowing project. You are my inspiration to continue learning about projects and wood things.

[@EbChrishawn0393]

[@nicoleflo]

Brilliant ✨✨

[@raquelmarquez4159]

You are amazing 🥳

[@yahmich]

I love what you did. It inspires me on what to do with a similar space in my home. Q:have you thought of hanging a pendant light behind the arch?

[@monachinn1576]

It came out amazing
