Absolutely Stunning! You guys did a fantastic job! Everything came together so beautifully I'm in awe of you and your interior design talents!! Joanna and Chip WHO!
A tip I learnd when I got my glass shower: first,clean the glass really well and dry it with a squeegie so that it's spotless. Then take a microfiber cloth and drizzle a good amount of the rinsing aid of the dishwasher on it. then apply the rinsing aid on the glass from top to bottom in like a wavey movement. First it looks blurry but it dries and it looks amazing spotless as the water just rinses off easily and I dont have to clean the glass shower every day, only like every three weeks or so :-) lots of love from Germany
I like the idea of the curtain over the door. I love a shower door bc then water doesn't get everywhere but a curtain looks so much nicer and covers the clear glass incase someone just walks in while another kiddo is showering.
I refer to you as "my friend Natalie" around my house. Pretty sure my kids and husband think I'm losing it (or have an imaginary friend), but that's okay. 😎😂 Great job, Bennetts! Loving this House to Home series so much! 🥰
For the faucet, think of one with handles instead of round knobs. They both turn towards the tap, that is why your knobs turn inwards even though they are a different style. Hope that helps and makes sense. The bathroom turned out beautifully!
if you also put up a fabric liner, the fabric liner can stay wet and keep the outside curtain dry. Fabric liners can be thrown in the wash! Just place the fabric liner on the same hooks as the curtain. I have them in my home and they work great!! Beautiful bathroom makeover. You both accomplished a great deal together!!
Hey Natalie, I'm Arrenga and I'm a student and a new subscriber. Love all the videos that i've seen so far. Can you do a meal prep at some point and more garden videos. Love how you create your videos and always tell your views, the pros and cons and just not make it seem like everything is so easy. Thank you for explaining to us that there are flops in the new things that we do and flops in things that we have also done a million times. Your kiddos are so sweet and I always like your videos before it even starts. Thank you for bringing a smile to my face. You are so sweet and blessed.
Love the board and battan. Great job on the bathroom. We removed our glass doors completely for the very same reason. Hung the tension rod and curtain and it works perfectly and looks so much better too
That’s funny Kim!!! Chip and Joanna who? Lol Hey are you gunna change the hardware on your shower door and inside your shower Natalie? That would really finish off your bathroom beautifully!!! We did that in our bathroom and it looks sooooooo good!!! It really puts the jewelry on the fixtures in a room. You guys did an awesome job on the bathroom…it looks awesome….I love the look of board and Batton on any wall… we put that up on all 4 walls in our bedroom and a separate bathroom and it’s beautifull…We love it a lot!!
Totally love the shower curtain idea! We have a glass door insert in our main bathroom in the tub. I do not like it at all and although it's in great shape...I'm constantly dealing with the water spots etc. We do not want to remove and redo anymore areas in our home because this is not our forever home and hopefully we'll locate and purchase property with acreage in the next year. I'm so going to hang a curtain there to give the bathroom a little "pick me up" as well as cover the doors! Thanks Natalie...that bathroom turned out spectacular! Your thrift finds were perfect!!
I absolutely love it! The shower curtain actually softens the room and makes it more cozy and warm feeling. Showers and tubs can often make a room feel sterile and cold. Great job and congrats
You both did such a wonderful job, so pretty ! I have glass shower doors and I'm an empty nester and us a shower curtain. I will never be in that season of life to clean water spots ❤️❤️
That's what I did in my bath shower. Shower curtain please. Although if you wax your doors it repelled the water minus the water stains but I like the feeling of privacy with the curtain with the glass doors.
I have one of those showers and I just put a plastic shower curtain on the tension rod and hung it on the INSIDE of the shower. The glass stays dry, the person taking the shower can open or close the curtains from the inside and have some privacy in case someone else needs to come on and wash their hands or whatever. I got a couple cute plastic curtains to change out from time to time and no need to put decorative ones on the outside.
Hey, just a tip! You can use the caulking in the nail holes. Just put a little dab where the holes are and use your finger or spatula to wipe off the excess. I use a damp paper towel. AND YOU DONT HAVE TO SAND IT!!! Just paint it. 😃
Yes! This is a great tip for a much faster process and I've done this before in our old house. I prefer the wood filler as it gives a much smoother seamless end result, though!
Awe 🥹 the moment you said the green I love so much… it’s the same color as Weston’s eyes. I love you two! So cute. I wish you and your family alll the happiness.
I love that sewing part, "Your dad didn't marry me cuz I can sew a straight seam. It's good enough." Tosses the sheet at son. That made me laugh so hard! I love it! 😂🤣
What I did for the glass in my house, clean really really well, then rub with turtle wax or a wax of sort if you cannot get turtle wax. Yes the glass will be slippery, which is what you want, but it is not being walked on, the slipping helps the water glide off more easily.
Hi Natalie and Weston you are an amazing team, what a transformation it looks stunning, glad you realised that the towel rail was missing I realised when Weston put the toilet roll holder up. You done a great job of the shower curtain, what a great idea till the children get older. Hayley just so cute while you were sewing, how lovely it was a bridal shower gift from your grandmother. Hope your head is not sore anymore xxxxx
Oh it’s just beautiful! That shade of green is my favorite color too! One idea for a towel holder is to use a small vintage picture frame with no glass or backing. Paint the frame your desired color (maybe the same green as the vase?) and the glue a ribbon or string to each of the top corners of the frame and tie the two strings together and then hang on the wall. So cute!
It's so beautiful! The shower curtain was definitely the right idea. It totally changes the whole feel. I had to smile when I saw you sewing the shower curtain pieces together. Normally you would put both pieces together with the sides you will see touching each other and then sew along the edge then open it up. That way you don't see the raw edge or the stitching. That would make an actual seam rather than just overlapping the fabric and sewing. I just thought I would share in case it comes in handy making curtains for Hailey's room. 🙂
Yes! I did it this way on purpose because the material is thick and the type of seam you’re describing would be too chunky with those extra layers. I essentially “sealed” off the edge by doing a zig zag stitch over the raw edge. Not perfect but it works for me!
Amazing transformation! So beautiful and I love the classic touches. Natalie and Weston are giving major Chip and Joanna vibes and I’m here for it! #premierefam 🌻
Awww that's so sweet! We were so late to the fixer upper game and only started watching their show last year! Within the first episode we were like "hmmm their personalities remind us of someone!"
The bathroom make over turned out fabulous. I love the shower curtain and the vintage pictures. All the details is what makes the space so nice. Definitely you need towel hooks that the kids can reach….. perhaps on the wainscoting behind the door.
So beautiful! You all did great. I would have to move that beautiful vase to the sink because I'd get my hair caught in those flowers every time. 🤦♀️🤣
I love the way this turned out! You have a way of making your spaces feel so welcoming and cozy while still being beautiful and stylish. Good teamwork also goes along way. I loved watching your sweet girl watch you sewing. That was such a precious little memory in the making.
What a wonderful transformation! Your bathroom turned out really pretty ! Good job! It's always so cool to watch you and Weston work together. Love you guys and your channel.
I grew up as a revolutionary war re-enactor and I had that exact little basket for part of my display! :) I think I still have it around here somewhere. Made my heart happy to see another one and it flooded me with sweet memories!
This is how I want my whole house someday. It is so dreamy. I’m not sure that I’ve ever loved anyones style as completely as I love yours. Major inspiration for me! I’m sure I’ll be checking back when we have our own home someday!!
It’s beautiful!!! I’d hang the other painting on the little wall next to the door. And I’d finish it off by painting the door trim and door the same color as the board and batten. 💓
It looks so good 🥰 You and Weston work together so well when it comes to decorating your home! I love your home! You have come so far since you first bought it!!
I feel like it’s worth mentioning that they make colored wood filler sticks. It’s like a crayon. For tiny holes like brad nails it’s great. You don’t have to sand it or paint again. My family flips houses and growing up I had two jobs staple puller (from carpet) and wood filler. It was like coloring.
We had a glass shower door situation in our kids bathroom/guest bathroom before we remodled it and I totally covered it up with a shower curtain too. 😉
Soo beautiful!!! Two questions: where would the kids hang their bath towels? And, how does a fabric curtain help with the water spots? They'd still shower with the glass door in there? Maybe I'm missing something 😅
I love that bathroom, I'd would totally want that for when I buy my own place!! Also i love watching your videos, they make me feel at peace and i really just enjoy the content too. You can tell you and your family are trying to life a calm and holy life. Thank you for your joy🥰
Love how this turned out! It compliments your kitchen really well. I like how practical you are too, when it comes to your shower door. You appreciate pretty things, but if it doesn't function well there's no point. The curtain was a good fix for now! I also have a glass shower door that is hard to keep clean, but unfortunately my bathroom has no windows and we need the glass to let in light. I just accept that it's not going to be perfect. Lol
I love your solutions for the shower - because of the season you’re in I believe it’s a pretty and functional solution. Also I love the larger print. Plus you don’t want the humidity to ruin that hand painted picture. The bathroom is lovely. I’m so enjoying your house to home series. We moved around the same time y’all and Kimberly Whisk and it’s been fun to set up home with y’all.
I love how everything turned out! So classic. I thought the shower curtain was a good fix to hide the messy glass, but I was worried about losing light. You picked the perfect type of material to keep the space bright! Ingenious to use 2 curtains and make a longer one. The only thing I can see being a possible problem is that the old bathroom had a towel bar and it looks like the kids won't have anywhere to hang their towels. Are you planning to add a bar or hooks?
The shower door has a towel bar for the kids to hang theirs on when they step in to take a shower. We don’t leave body towels hanging when we’re not using them so an extra one isn’t necessary!
We actually had glass doors we took out of the frame & put a curtain over just for easier access (it was a shower tub), so I totally get it. It looks great!
I was going to ask about a hand towel ring, but you addressed it. The transformation you did is absolutely beautiful! I love blending modern with vintage
Girl! My husband did trim in our whole downstairs (baseboards and doors) and it was on me to calk and paint. Such a task!!! It’s so much harder than it looks. I don’t think he will be “hiring” me to help again anytime soon lol. Much respect to you for tackling that!
Awesome video, what a transformation! Love the baking soda with the paint trick. I am going to have to try that one. I noticed Weston’s hat, we used to live in Arlington when my hubby was station in Everett. Washington is such a beautiful place. I have some very fond memories of our time there.
Natalie! That is so gorgeous! I know you love to save by thrifting but I think one of Anthropologie's Everlee collection towel options would be the cherry on top for this. It's the antique gold with the same little birds AND they have 3 different options...a ring, a stand, or hooks!
Absolutely beautiful and classic!! Color choices are spot on, shower curtain DIY amazing! My favorite part tho is how well you and Weston work together in these projects!!
We have a water softer installed and no longer get water marks on our glass. An expensive solution but comes with several other benefits and saves so much time in weekly cleaning. Now it’s just once every other month
Everything looks so pretty! Just a tip, return that tension rod and get a better one! I bought those at target too, and it’s not worth it, they drop one curtain panel all the time when I put them in the hallway closets of my home. Everything looks so pretty though! You can probably even take those doors down too in the bathroom, we did that in our apartment and it was so worth it! One less thing to clean! Love y’all!
A beautiful before and after!! My husband and I love to do home projects together too!! I wouldn’t have it any other way…it creates so many memories in the process!! 👍👍
Your hair and makeup is so beautiful! I would love to see how you do it all and what you use. I also found 2 of those baskets at a thrift store and it was the best day ever! Love your new bathroom!!
