In this video I make over the family room/living room in a home that has not been updated since the 1980’s. In the process of making over this dated space, I share some of my best ideas tips for creating a bright and cozy space (even in a basement). These tips include painting the walls and ceiling with paint containing undertone (blue and green work well), painting doors and trim; installing a budget friendly flooring such as floating carpet tiles, adding plenty of lighting and mirrors, disguising problem areas, freshening up what you already own, adding thrifted furniture, wall art and accessories, and providing plenty of storage (because we love to use our basements for storage).

Wow Sherry! You never cease to amaze me! Great transformation, love the pass through idea and the bookcase. I have one of those”80’s” bookcases, needed, but so dated. I’m going to use your ideas! Love the updated version. Thanks for sharing ❤️
You are amazing, thanks for sharing your hard work
This is an amazing makeover. Beautiful. Your sons are very lucky to have you to makeover their living areas.
Amazing! I just love it! The blue walls make such a difference, as do the black edging. I’m definitely going to use some of these ideas on my son’s new (and pretty dingy) flat. You are a treasure.
Just spectacular Sherry!!!!👏🏻😁
