Hi MaCenna, I just wanted to let you know after you recommended Aurate on a previous video I went and purchased a few items and unfortunately the quality wasn’t good my 14k gold bracelet broke the first time after just 3 days and when I reached out to the company they took 3 months to get back to me. When I finally heard back from them I decided on a exchange as they stated it was likely just a faulty bracelet so I received my exchange and that one broke in a week. At this point I just wanted a refund so I reached out again and this time they took a month to respond. They finally sent me the return label, I shipped the item back and received an email confirmation that they received my item and my refund would be processed in 20 business days. This was a long time to wait but I trusted I’d get my money back. Well unfortunately I never got my money back and after reaching out to them numerous times they finally got back to me saying it has now passed 6 months so their system won’t allow them to refund me. It has been over 6 months because they failed to submit the refund on time and take months to get back to their customers. So I have essentially been robbed of my money as I’ve returned the item and never received a refund. This is a terrible company and while their prices are lower than some jewelry stores it’s still not cheap where it’s ok to not get your money back after returning the item. I lost a lot of money due to their incompetence and don’t think this is a company you should be recommending.
I would put the crockpot and blender up high where you put the cereal. The pull out drawers are nice for accessibility too. Will be interesting to see what the final reveal is. Thanks for sharing the process. I love figuring and configuring this kind of stuff.
What happen to the other house you were renovating?
It’s good you are doing moving and settling into the house now and not when you have kids, everything is a production and takes forever with little ones!
About the lack of space in the kitchen, since your den next to it is so big, why not have some kind of hutch for coffee bar, freeing some space from the kitchen.
Is this the same house that you were renovating last year? What happened to the gorgeous stove/ oven you purchased last year? Was it returned? How many videos did I miss?! 🤦🏽♀️
Hi, just wanted to suggest maybe buying a long cabinet or like China to put in the nook at the end of the kitchen opposite of fridge maybe that will give you a little extra space to maybe put away some of your appliances 😊 good luck !!
When or if you decide go do a gallery wall, could you pretty please film it and maybe include like the thought process behind it?🙏🏼 yours always look soo stunning and I am struggling at the moment with mine 😔
Pleaseeeee the pants Macenna wears all the time the cream/white ones are perfect! Does anyone know what they are? 🙂
Not sure which I like more, the pull out abnit racks or watching Kinsey exploring boxes and playing with caps.
Finding some extra little kitchen furniture for the time being maybe if there is room until renovation? I don’t remember wall space but I’ve found vintage plate racks and such. I know that you will come up with some clever ideas 😉❤️🙏
That kitchen would be to small for me.
why does romeo sleep upstairs? are they married?
I’m confused is this the kitchen in the cottage. I thought there was an island and the cabinets were different which you were making.
At our last house we kept our little appliances and random stuff we didn’t use as often in a closed sideboard cabinet in the dining room!
i’m really confused. what happened to the kitchen you were building with the huge island?
The cabinets that I have are dark like yours what I did was I painted them white on the inside so it makes everything inside the cabinet stand out and looks prettier not so dark and gloomy.
No way!! The glasses you got are literally the same glasses I JUST bought this week. Wow the coincidence is so funny to me!
Love watching your videos. Can watch them all day. Can’t wait to see what you do with your new house.
But where’s your turtleneck from? Love!
I’ve been so obsessed with this gray sweater during the sponsor. Do you remember where you got it?
MaCenna for the time being have you thought about floating shelves on the wall in the kitchen for your cutting boards on edges along with your dry goods in your pretty containers and jars, mixed in with a few decor items and pictures. Then you could free up a shelf or two in your cupboards for less attractive kitchen items and small appliances. Just a thought.
This vlog cements that I never want to move to a house without a pantry 😂 mine is so nice and big
Why won’t you move the simplehuman basket drawer from above the oven to the cupboard underneath the oven. It’s usually a fairly easy move and I’m sure That would make more sense, it would be much more practical x 😊
WD40 on your cabinet doors, removes the noise and makes it move smoothly
❤️❤️❤️
Question, since you are not planning to live in Texas, why did you buy top of the line appliances for an air bnb?
MaCenna you do amaizing job in new home. I have this suggestion for you, consider buying a hutch on flea market, you can place her in the "dining" (wall you can see from kitchen, if it fit) and you can store your plates, bowls and other nice things in upper behind the glass, and less preety things hide in lower cabinets (sorry for my bad english) 😁
Try Plate racks!! You stand your plates up instead of stack! Game changer for easy access and shallow cupboards 🎉
I had anxiety the whole time watching you open packages with a knife and Kinsley playing around the area … 😢
I thought you had a different stove.
As someone that cooks, it’s a bit easier to have your spices where you can see them. I noticed you didn’t have much in the cabinet to the left of the stove. Maybe invest in a spice riser and put them there so you can see them all. I know you do hello fresh a lot but maybe for those meals you do cook? I LOVE the idea of the cutting boards on the wall for decor and then it becomes pretty and practical to store them! ❤
The blank wall – where you were talking about hanging the nice cutting boards – would be a good place for a China cabinet
Hi! If you have the possibility, renovate the kitchen before a baby! All the things that a baby need will take over that kitchen (new mom experience)
I love that kitchen
Is there space for a banquet type thing for storage in the dining room?
Fun fact, my name is Zoey like your niece and my middle name is McKena 🥰
Is the tap water so bad there you can’t use it to make coffee?
I love kitchen shears! You can just cut up so many things with scissors versus having to get a cutting board and knife out. We cut up our cilantro with our kitchen scissors sausages, etc. also we hand wash our knives because they have a natural handle and they are in perfect condition. Your knives will last so long!
I take issue with supporting “All female” companies. Sounds Bigotted. We are not living in some Third World country where the Mommas need to be financially supported.
Having said that, I love the jewellery and i love your approach to advertising – didn’t feel like an advert.
You can buy “stackable” shelving to put plates on the bottom and small plates on top. You are doing great by yourself.. but I have to stack also.
On the wall going up the short staircase, a art wall would be nice up there!
I watched this when it came out and it was interesting, but now I’m about to move into our new home (!) and this is helpful in a new way!!!! Thanks, MaCenna!
i miss your mama!
Oh macenna you need to need your tool bag out and whip put another cabinet!! Love the new kitchen!!
LOVE THIS NEW HOUSE GREAT CHOICE!!! YOU REALLY HIT THE JACKPOT WITH THIS ONE!! IT HAS SO MUCH POTENTIAL!!!
The cabinet above the microwave/oven thing could hold small appliances like a blender, food processor, toaster, hand mixer, electric can opener, etc., that you don’t have counter space for.
Also please be careful putting dry goods close to the stove top because of moisture! I had this same storage issue in a previous apartment and stored my dry goods like rice, bread, flour, etc., a few cabinets over and had mold problems. My bread would go bad SO quickly. Canned goods could work though
What type of coffee maker do you have?
best drawer liner
Should move the crockpot to qheere the baking sheets are and then put those under the oven
