EXTREME KITCHEN RENOVATION *Before & After* | XO, MaCenna

[@janakirchnerova3544]

This is not a kitchen. This is art. You collected items, made every big and tiny decision and brought everything together so beautiful. You, lady, are an true artist! I‘m obsessed!

[@XOMaCenna]

Wow! Thank you so much! 🥹🥹🥹

[@makorepo11]

Agreed! Made me emotional to watch her vision come to life with exceptional attention to detail

[@elizabethronces1377]

Definitely, so inspiring!!

[@ebonybowman7750]

I honestly think your gonna cry once your completely done your place because you did this with your own 2hands and it’s gonna hit you of how amazing the cottage looks and I’m such a fan and love your video and I can’t wait to start my new place. Thank you so much for everything you do.❤❤❤❤

[@heycambry]

MaCenna, I cannot stress enough how immensely proud of you we all are. You’ve inspired us to dare more, try more, do more. Thank you for sharing this journey with us. This kitchen is absolutely gorgeous.

[@jacquelineanger6940]

[@ihogenhuis960]

Absolutely! You said it..

[@citygirlingraham]

Couldn't have said it any better, yes the kitchen is absolutely stunning!!!!

[@dzizs03]

why do I feel like crying?? this is one of the most stunning and labor intense projects I've ever seen a single person do. I seriously can not believe what you have been able to accomplish with your own two hands. this is literally a dream kitchen and your eye for design and detail is elevating it even further - the dogs were the right choice! not the mention the beautiful work you do with filming and editing. I can't say much more than everyone else already did, you should just be so proud of yourself.

[@carrahgabriel9145]

Sameeeee 😭😭

[@shelbylight7209]

the ending made me so emotional!! you just can tell how much effort she put into it

[@gyaj3448]

Thank u for saying what I wanted to say. This was a long project. I felt soo exhausted and overwhelmed watching the cabinet process but it is indeed beautiful! Great job McKenna! Beautiful!

I can’t believe this content is free. You are truly one of my favorite creators and an absolute inspiration. Today I got to tell my fiancé “my friend MaCenna from KZbin finished her kitchen” and even HE was excited!!! It looks incredible and it is unbelievably impressive that you did it all with your two hands!

[@MagentaLooks]

I made my fiancé watch too!

[@cece7299]

helloo? dont put ideas into her head

[@bynmiller7794]

Yes!!! I tell my husband that stuff all the time and eagerly sits down to watch with me and is thoroughly engulfed, as I am. It helps that she's doing this in Comfort, TX, close to where we were going to retire!

[@heloise5931]

This series is a masterclass. That kitchen reflects so much of the hard work, the passion and the thoughtfulness you brought into this house. I'm truly grateful I somehow found your channel a few years ago because you are a truly inspiring person.

[@leahsilinski9974]

Anyone else remember when MaCenna was just starting to "try out" some small power tools? She got her first set from Walmart and made her own outdoor furniture. And that wasn't even that long ago! You're such an inspiration and in a weird, parasocial-ly relationship type way, I'm so proud of you!

[@veronicasalazar-garcia5299]

Yes I remember watching that. Wow, what growth. Amazing!

[@ApBarr345]

Yes it is really such a transformation and inspiration to anyone wanting to take on a home DIY project.

[@cheekyllamacreations]

Yes, I remember that and thinking how clever she was! Wow, she has come so far in such a short time 🤗

[@judithromero6817]

For real!!! Amazing

[@sarybastias6597]

Yes I remember that she made Diy, i am 50 years old and she it is my inspiration, she strong and sweet at the same time, thanks for give us all this beautiful moments!!!!!!!

[@lyr8364]

Silent viewer here, who has been watching your videos on both channels religiously for nearly 4 years I think... I am in awe of your talent, hard work and eye for detail. Your positivity radiates through the screen. You are truly a remarkable, inspiring and empowering (and also stunning) woman, thank you for sharing all of your numerous talents! Lots of love from Europe ❤

[@jemma50]

Well said, @lyr8364! ♥ I totally agree.

[@Ddontkknow]

This house is so lucky it got you as its owner, Romeo is so lucky to have you as his partner and we are so lucky we get to have you as inspiration. The world is so much better off because you exist, you truly are one of a kind. This kitchen turned out amazing like everything else you do. Can’t wait to see what you do next ❤

[@alexandratracey8252]

Am I the only one who teared up a little during the reveal? It’s soooo BEAUTIFUL! But seriously, we’ve been on this journey with you since the day you first looked at the cottage and to see what is it becoming and has become is just extraordinary. ❤

[@iriamonge1704]

I cried a bit too

[@LaMeredeMaks]

i also got teary eyed 😊

[@kristydavies1665]

Tear Club.

[@AuroraSterre]

Couldn’t agree more! Teared up a bit myself too, especially because Macenna has SUCH an incredible work ethic and wants to provide us with the most beautiful content 🥰 Please enjoy your week of sleep Macenna, you deserve it!

[@camillecipri593]

Same. It's GORGEOUS. 😍

[@lealou1092]

I grew up adoring HGTV but have never seen anything like the journey with your cottage! The detail, TIME, research, energy and belief in yourself is mind blowing, empowering and contagious. This is beyond amazing! Never get rid of this house because it, along with these videos, will be treasures for your future family to cherish! You should be proud of what you’ve accomplished and for the wonderful example you are setting for others!

[@dmforsuh9314]

You're absolutely right. MaCenna has great self belief!

[@caitlynderkson8989]

Contagious is the perfect word! It’s so empowering and excited to realize you can do anything yourself!

[@MicheleWalkerWebb]

Since I have stopped recording HGTV as I see the beginning and finished rooms, but learned nothing.

[@madelineo]

Rewatching this series again. It's so comforting. Someday I'll be in a rocking chair watching these, like my grandpa did with Lawrence Welk

[@crustygranola5130]

A 46 MINUTE EPISODE?! haven't even started watching but i wanted to let u know how proud the community is for all your hard work!! the kitchen is ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL

[@ajh0198]

What did we do to deserve a 45 min video?! 😍

[@alexandratracey8252]

Amen!❤

[@MsEgwene]

When she said on insta the other day that she was trying to edit it all down to 20 mins I was like: "please don't! Show us more!!" I'm so glad she ended up making a long video. I enjoyed every second of it! I can't imagine what she should've edited out to make it 20 mins 😅

[@XOMaCenna]

Thank youuuuuuuu 🥰🥹

[@lupitaoseguera7071]

❤❤

[@lilpinksock31]

On top of the gorgeous renovation and your incredible work ethic, something must be said about the cinematography of your videos - from the angles to the music choice and timing, it really is another art form, and you are so good at it! The transition from before footage to the after when the woman's voice comes in on the song. Seriously, heart strings pulled. Chef's kiss. All the things. ❤️❤️❤️

[@XOMaCenna]

thank you sooo much! i genuinely love the videography aspect of my projects its like giving the renovation a different kind of life ... if that makes sense!

[@Dana-fn5zt]

YES!!!! Her videos are such a treat, I wait every week for them.

[@SierraDavis456]

This kitchen alone has made me a forever fan. I cannot believe how amazing this looks. Seeing your vision come to life and the fact that you did majority of this with your own two hands and brain. Somebody call Architectural Digest!

[@heidil.4651]

I literally got so emotional seeing the “after”. It’s crazy how much you’ve accomplished!!!! To say I’m proud of you is an understatement!!! You’re a very special person and I know we’re ALL beaming with pride over you!! ❤

I just can't believe how this woman could build all of this AND SO PERFECTLY. This is soooooo incredible omg

[@itsjess94]

Its so crazy. I remember when you first showed us your ideas and drawings for the kitchen. I was thinking 'wow that is going to be absolutely stunning." now here we are. and it is just that STUNNING. and YOU did that. you should be so beyond proud of yourself MaCenna. Sending so much love. and thank you for inspiring me to learn so much and DIY everything ❤

[@sakshi_ch]

I gonna take a moment to appreciate how brilliantly she positions her camera. The framing is always refreshing and the montages where she work is my favourite things. Not only is she is an amazing interior designer/decorator but she is a wonderful artist when it comes to camera work. I’m obsessed with that and I always keep an eye how she is filming, it just inspiring 🤌🤌🤌

[@kaleigh4081]

Yes!! I completely agree! It must add so much time to an already incredibly time consuming project. But it is so worth it. The videos are so creative, not just great content.

[@beckybox2596]

MaCenna, you are a marvel, one talented girl. I am in awe of your dedication and talents. Rest my sweet girl. You deserve it and I look forward to the next video ❤

I'm not ashamed to admit that i teared up when you showed the before and after. You and Romeo have worked so hard on your home and it looks so...just everything. Immensely happy for you and proud to watch all you've been able to accomplish.

[@elviraeiduka2955]

MaCenna, you have completely outdone yourself with this kitchen. It is absolutely gorgeous! Your talent, attention to detail, passion for DIY is visible in every corner of this beautiful space. I’m so proud of you. Watching you create this room into what it is was such an incredible experience for me as a viewer. You are so inspiring with your attitude and discipline to get things done. Just amazing.

[@morganmccann951]

as a fan from before you ever bought this place, i found myself tearing up at this reveal. it feels like such a turning point for this house and we are all so proud of you. what a great culmination of the elbow grease and passion you have poured into this place. bravo, she’s beautiful 🥹😍

I love the way MaCenna says "we built ...." when she was the only one building all of the cabinets with us just watching in awe.

The before and after reveal is the mic drop of the century. You have done a tremendous job and should be so so proud of yourself. It looks phenomenal. I can't believe the amount you are able to accomplish in just a few days, holy cow so impressive!

[@canflymyfriends]

Literally started crying when the before footage rolled in.. MACENNA THIS IS INCREDIBLE!! You are such an inspiration, watching you single-handedly putting up these cabinet doors especially knowing how tired you felt as you explained I’m just.. my jaw is on the floor. Cannot wait to see the finishing touches but it’s already so beautiful!!

Gosh putting up the canopy by yourself is a huge accomplishment in itself honestly. The kitchen is so beautiful. We’re proud of you. Edit - I AM LAUGHING SO HARD AT THE “we don’t need no man. Just put it on a towel!!” Part 😂😂😁 I cannot relate more.

MaCenna! I cannot stress this enough to you! PLEASE TAKE YOUR TIME AND DON’T KILL YOURSELF TRYING TO PUT OUT CONTENT. We don’t mind multiple episodes in projects or waiting until you’re ready to share. We just want to keep watching these videos and for them to never end ❤️❤️ much love to you, please be kind to yourself. You are not superhuman, even though it does sometimes seem like you are, but we don’t want you to burn out because that means you might stop creating this kind of content and that was be devastating!

[@jaimiepaquin4262]

I feel as if I’ve been on such an emotional journey with you during this process. As soon as you started showing the before video I started crying. By time you got to the now video I was bawling so hard that I ended up having to go back and watch again because I couldn’t see through all of the tears and snot lol. You’ve not only built a kitchen on your own, you took us all on a journey as your created art. I’m so grateful and I’m privileged to be able to witness your creation come to light. Thank you for showing us all that was just a little bit of time and patience, we are all capable of bringing our visions to light.

[@ceirragault4056]

MaCenna. I am speechless. I like many others here am so proud and happy for you. I know you won’t be fully satisfied until it’s completely finished but this is HUGE. I’m genuinely amazed at how well you have tackled this project and to be doing it almost entirely by yourself is just incredible. This project is your best work yet. You inspire me everyday to tackle projects around my own home. My husband is active duty army and tackling projects on my own helps me feel more in control of an already overwhelming and changing lifestyle. Thank you truly for inspiring me everyday to just do projects myself and not let any project seem too big. ❤

Many people try to renovate an old house and keep the vintage charm and I've thought I'd seen that. But this truly looks like you kept the vintage aspects while also adding contemporary functionality without it overtaking the kitchen. Its impressive how you were able to have both and I love it!!

Tip: Since raw/untreated wood is hard to clean and absorbs everything, it might be a good idea to put a clear coat or paint the inside of the trash can's cabinet, so in case there are any spills you can wipe it down easily. Congratulations on the amazing kitchen, it is absolutely beautiful ❤️

I think in general it's advisable to treat the inside of the cabinets with *something*.

[@MicheleWalkerWebb]

All the cabinets I believe. I'm sure she used wood filler for the holes from the cup hooks, but I didn't see that. Also, I'm confused, did MaCenna say she did not paint the inside of the cabinet doors? Just primer. They looked okay. I'm going to rewatch.

[@jlammetje]

@@MicheleWalkerWebb I think she did 1 layer of paint on the inside of the doors, while the outside got a second layer.

[@MicheleWalkerWebb]

@@jlammetje Thank you. 😀

[@jessicatrevino679]

Glad to see I’m not the only one that teared up during this. It’s so gorgeous & all your KZbin friends are so proud, MaCenna!

[@heavingbehemoth789]

I can’t believe how stunning this kitchen turned out. And being able to reuse all of those materials?!? It makes it all the more special. Would love it if you could do a video on self-care during the renovation stage. When do you decide to stop for the day? My ADHD wants to hyper focus on a project for 12 hours straight without eating, staying hydrated, etc!

[@dedope58]

your vision, detail, planning, your execution, your style... its all a testament to your talent and hard work!

[@stephanieblakey1338]

You should be so proud of this achievement. The colour, the style, decor and use of the 2nd hand knobs are just so beautifully cohesive! It's inspiring that you literally built this, with your own two hands!!! 😍😊 Also, can't wait for an organisation video, I need inspiration for my own kitchen!!!

[@gilka306]

To say it with your words: I'm obsessed with this kitchen! This is so stunning! You can be proud of yourself having such a great kitchen made by yourself!

[@laneyellis1602]

My mom and I started my kitchen remodel/restoration almost 5 months ago. Did 99% of the work ourselves and are almost done! Your kitchen is stunning.

[@NeidaTeresa]

I’ve been watching this renovation from the start and this video seriously made me feel so emotional to watch! So much hard work and dedication to this STUNNING unique perfect home. I hope you’re able to keep this place forever it is perfect for you.

I can’t even imagine how rewarding this all must been- I’m literally on the verge of tears with the progress and I just witnessed it! I can’t imagine how you must be feeling being the one who spearheaded this whole thing. Go sleep for a week, MaCenna! You deserve it!

Wow MaCenna, just wow! This kitchen is simply a masterpiece. When I remember back to when you did the very first walkthrough of this home, and to see the hard work and labor of love progress, it’s just stunning. By far and away the best home remodel on KZbin. Hands down. I’m so excited for you, Romeo, and Kinsley to have such a beautiful space to call your Texas home.
