I disagree. White will not always be in style. In fact, it hasn’t been in style for the past 20 years. It was in style in the last century during the 80’s and 90’s, but hasn’t since then. Some people kept them because appliances are expensive of course or they just don’t care about updating.

Hi Kristen! Yes, it's really easy to rip up carpet. Super fun too! You'll definitely want a crowbar, or something to help rip up the tacks, and maybe a sharp utility knife. When I was about 18 or 19 our family cat had a urination problem and my family kept complaining about it and for months would talk about removing the carpet altogether. One day I got so tired of them talking about it, I ripped up the entire living room carpet all myself while everyone else was as work. Looking back on it now, I really should've gotten in more trouble than I did, but I did save them a bunch of work.

We recently had a professional remove our popcorn ceiling and it was not easy or fast. It was a huge mess and I’m glad we did this before moving our furniture in. This is an extreme undertaking when doing an entire home and it’s especially hard if your home is really old, or the ceilings have previously been painted. However, it’s an interior update “game-changer” and I definitely recommend it.

Please, have your popcorn ceiling tested before removing it yourself! My mom had her ceiling tested and it came back positive for asbestos. Thank God we didn’t try to remove it ourselves! She had specialists come in to remove it.

Great video! We completely remodeled our main floor and looked into doing hidden hinges. It was going to be around $1500 just to do hidden hinges because we have custom cabinets. We decided to go with updated hinges and they look great along with new hardware on the doors.

WARNING: *NEVER* paint your tile!!! It will become a nightmare. There are companies that you can hire to come in a coat your tile with a longer lasting paint - BUT it *WILL* also become a nightmare!!! Just save your money and get it done correctly by replacing with a quartz type product. I manage apartment buildings and have seen this mistake over and over and over again.

@azulaikhaazani6893 3 года назад

Hi. Just a genuine question because I am planning to redo my mom's outdated kitchen (it was designed nearly 30 years ago haha) and I am planning to paint the tiled counter top because getting a quartz stone top is too out of my budget. May I know why it is a nightmare? Thank you in advance!

@@azulaikhaazani6893 I've painted tiles all over my home for years, including backsplash tiles in the kitchen. No probs, lasted years. Don't bother with tile paint, I actually used radiator paint for the kitchen tiles and it's super hard wearing. Also consider contact paper on your tiles (fill in grout gaps first for a smooth finish). Also try the amazing magic tile cover by TouPret that covers tiles, goes on with a brush and sands smooth. I used that on a tiled windowsill then painted it, amazing results.

@Lorinidaho 2 года назад

@@azulaikhaazani6893 I would assume the paint on a tile counter would get scratched up pretty quick. I painted over a 4" ceramic bathrm backsplash with Zinsser Bulls Eye 123 Primer. It worked well but the only thing that sits on the tile is dust or an occasional toothpaste splash.

You're showing your inexperience- do you realized what's involved in changing cabinet hinges to hidden hinges? Popcorn ceilings- how many have you actually removed? Just bringing up 2, there were quite a few. I watch all your videos but I think you're starting to bite off more than your ready to chew. The best of luck. I'll be cheering you on!

@trudysigler1645 3 года назад

Most importantly, check for asbestos before removing a popcorn ceiling!

@leschurchill804 3 года назад

I agree. Removing a popcorn ceiling can be a health hazard. Appliances are very expensive and so is flooring. The blinds are a good idea, but refitting cabinets with recessed hinges, yikes, we're talking money. Also painting mosaic countertops, I don't know about that. Ms. L. Churchill
