01x04 - Single Mom First

Post by bunniefuu »

-I'm Jessica. -I'm Lizzy.

[Jessica]

including your house.

Every day, I feel like I'm

failing.

[Lizzy]

We come in and help make your

home work for you.

Oh, my gosh!

[woman]

You need to be celebrated.

-[Koey]

-[Kaleigh]

-How are you? -I'm good.

-How are you? -I'm good.

My name is Koey and I'm from

Woodland Hills, California.

I'm a glam'ma.

Yay, good job!

I probably see Ashleigh

Her mom has no privacy, at all,

whatsoever.

And after outgrowing it, she

gifted it to me

and moved into a bigger and

better house.

The problem is, she left

everything.

I feel defeated, as a working

single mom,

I want to walk into a happy

house.

It's a little depressing.

-[Kaleigh] Mommy. -[Koey] Time

to eat.

Here.

[Jessica] This is Koey,

-single mom. -[Lizzy] Yep.

Now, she inherited this house

-from her older sister.

-Exactly, right?

[Lizzy] I'm just saying, this is

gonna be gold.

Is it crispy, like you like it?

Yeah.

[Koey] Can you use your Santa

cup?

[Kaleigh] I'm not a baby

anymore.

[knocking on door]

[Koey] Let me get the door. Stay

right here.

-Hi! -Oh, my God!

-Nice to meet you. -So nice to

meet you, too.

-Hello. -Oh, my gosh!

It's so good to be here. Look at

you,

looking like a ray of sunshine.

Thank you, that is my favorite

color.

So, we're in the kitchen.

Kaleigh is eating right now.

-Hi. -Hello.

This is Kaleigh.

-Hi, Kaleigh. -I'm Jessica.

Can I give you a hug?

-Nice to meet you. -Kaleigh, we

like hugs.

We like hugs.

-How old are you? -Five.

I thought you were seven for

sure.

-Oh, my. -[shared laughter]

Kaleigh is smart.

Lots of personality.

Self-taught.

Just overall amazing.

I'm almost taller than my mom.

-You look really tall. You do.

-[Lizzy gasps] Are you really?

[Lizzy] Let me see. Jump up.

Let's see.

Oh, yeah.

Oh, yeah, for sure. You're

almost there.

-You're right there. -Almost

there.

You're right there.

So, this is where you guys do

most of your eating

-[Koey]

-[Lizzy]

This is where everyone gathers

around

[Koey]

Breakfast time I'm usually

this is mom.

-Right. -With my coffee.

Do you like sitting down with

your mommy

and having dinner time?

-Yeah. -Yeah.

[LIzzy] I like that time, too.

I think it's the best time of

the day.

-[Jessica] Me too. -Sister's

here.

She's gonna take you to school,

okay?

So cute.

Koey's a single mom.

And when you're working as a

single mom,

you're working as two parents,

And that's what I'm seeing in

Koey.

Koey is running on empty

and you know what she needs?

She needs to hit that reset

button

so she can fill up her cup

and love on herself a little

bit.

She's so cute. We were just

saying,

this is the age our little ones

are at too.

-Oh, is it really? Oh, okay.

-Like our youngest are both

-We both have -Almost five.

-Yeah, almost five. -Yeah.

Tell us about the home though.

-This home is from your sister.

-Yes.

-Tell us the story of that. -So,

my sister and I,

she's the oldest. She's the

firstborn.

So, when I turned 19, I became

her babysitter.

-Aw. -Okay.

And so now, she gifted me this

house.

-Wow. -And so I stayed here

-How long ago was that? -A year

and a half.

Okay, so it's still kind of a

new transition.

But it's exactly the way she

left it.

Wait a minute, is your sister's

stuff

I haven't touched a thing since

I

All this is

-is her stuff. -This is all her

stuff?

So, you still feel like you're

living inside of, like,

her her vision.

That's my biggest

That's my biggest gripe about

the house.

'Cause it's a good house.

-Right. -We could function in

it.

-No, it's a great house. -We do

function.

But it is just not my style.

This is where you guys eat.

I feel like storage is obviously

something that you're battling

with, right?

I mean, yeah.

So the problem with this kitchen

is

It's airy and it's light, but

it's beautiful.

-I agree. -I hear a lot of "us."

I hear a lot of "me and

Kaleigh,"

"me and Kaleigh," "me and

Kaleigh,"

-you know? Yeah. -I'm a single

mom.

It's my life, so

My mom was a single mom of

three.

I was raised by a single mom,

three kids, and I know

everything that went into

It is debilitating

how much pressure is on you as a

single parent.

And I think for Koey, I see

that.

I see that in her, I see her

struggle.

But I also see how much joy and

happiness she has

around her family and what she

has created.

And so for me, I just really

want

to give her something super

special.

It's hard to be everywhere

for everyone and also be all

things for everyone.

Yeah. It's exhausting.

-It's exhausting. -I'm sure.

Well, look, can we throw you a

party now?

You're gonna make me cry.

She is, of course, appreciative

for everything that her big

sister has given her,

and this is the time for her to

really sort of like,

come into her own and really

have her own identity.

And it be manifested in the

space that she's in.

[Jessica]

[Koey]

Can you imagine my bright

personality

coming into all of this brown?

-[Lizzy]

-Yeah. -Yeah.

Koey felt like this space was

soul-sucking.

That is such a harsh terminology

to use about your home.

-[Jessica] It's so dark.

-I can only imagine. -[Jessica]

Oh, my gosh,

can you imagine if you're like,

every time I go home,

this is soul-sucking.

Every time I walk in my home,

I feel like my soul is being

sucked out of my body.

-Nobody wants that. -That's a

horror movie.

A horror movie.

This is where all the action

happens.

-Everything. -So, this is work

space,

host space,

family time, chill out time.

And when you're in the kitchen

cooking,

Kaleigh's here, or is she in

there?

Yeah, she's here on the couch.

Now what about your bedroom?

Like, where's your space where

you--

Where no magic happens?

-Follow me down the hall. -Let's

do it. Let's do it.

-[Koey] This is my sanctuary.

-[Lizzy] Wow, okay.

This is a really great-sized

bedroom.

[Koey]

I'm single, she's by herself,

why not sleep together?

-Of course. -You know.

[Jessica]

[Koey]

-It's hard to start. -It's hard

to start.

Which again, I love the house.

I don't love the color.

[Lizzy]

[Koey]

But what's your favorite color?

-Yellow. This color yellow.

-[both exclaim]

And it's called sunshine yellow.

Just bringing happiness into my

world.

But do I want to sleep in a

yellow room?

I really don't know.

What we are trying to do for

Koey is.

to create a space

-[Lizzy]

[Jessica]

This home was set up for her

sister's family

which looks different.

We need to make a change for

Koey

so it's setup for her family.

Is there one thing in this house

that you love

that represents you?

-Oh, yeah, for sure. -You do?

There's one thing, yeah.

It was something that I got for

my birthday.

-Okay, show us. -Can you grab

it?

Okay, let me go and get it. I'll

be right back.

I can't wait to see.

Who do you think gave it to her?

I don't know. It's gotta be

someone she loves.

-[Koey] Are you guys ready?

-[both] Yeah, we're ready.

[Koey] Open your eyes.

-Oh, wow! -Oh, wow!

[both] I did not expect that.

[Koey]

-[Koey] Are you guys ready?

-[both] Yeah, we're ready.

-Okay, no, close your eyes. -All

right, you ready?

Open your eyes.

-Oh, wow! -Oh, wow!

-I did not expect that. -I know,

I know, I know, I know.

These are my favorite flowers.

And they're yellow, obviously.

The orange is bright

'cause I love bright colors.

My sister bought it for me.

-Oh, sister. -Oh, sister.

Put it in my room.

-I'm gonna be honest with you.

-[Koey] I know you guys

This is unexpected.

-I'm really surprised. -I did

not see this one coming.

I did not either.

Seeing the big sunflowers

And [sighs]

I don't know why that's making

me emotional.

Um to have somebody thinking

about me.

Um and so,

the way I felt when I saw that

vase

I don't talk about me so much. I

don't get that much attention

on me, so

And I get to keep it forever, as

along as it, you know

As a mom,

we're always doing everything

for everyone else.

I mean, it's just, sort of

what we do, right?

And it's really hard to take the

time for self-care.

When we are designing this space

for her,

I just want her to feel that

love and that self-care

-from two moms to another mom.

-That's right.

-We can relate. -We can totally

relate.

So let's just talk about

the house for a second and the

space.

So the space, today, right now,

is very

Claustrophobic. It's very dark.

It's very cave-like.

-She feels the same way. -Lots

of wood.

We need to bring in life, and

vitality.

And color.

So, just so we can reconfigure

ourselves

You walk in the house,

-you have this space, -Yeah.

I think we have to open this up.

[Lizzy] I agree.

[Jessica]

And then she has a pretty nice

sized closet,

a pretty big bathroom.

What she does have in this

bedroom though,

So, we're definitely gonna

touch this, but it's more an

aesthetic update.

It just feels very

claustrophobic.

Is that how they walk around?

That's how I walk around, like,

ugh

[Lizzy] Hello!

-Hi! -How are you?

Good!

Normally, when we move out a

family,

they go away for a few weeks,

we do what we do, we come in, we

change up the space,

and the family comes back.

For Koey, we're making a little

bit of an exception.

We're having Koey come back

because we noticed that Koey

just has an emotional attachment

to this space that she needs to

break.

This needs to become her space

and not her sister's.

Well, we have a surprise for you

actually.

We need you to help us

knock down this wall.

-Are you ready? -For real?

Yeah, we're gonna knock down

this wall.

-Oh, my God. Oh, my God. -Are

you ready to help us?

Yes, I'm ready.

Let's get you come gloves, some

glasses.

If one has never sledged a

hammer

Wait, is that a thing, sledged a

hammer?

Sledgehammered?

Sledged. Sledged the

sledgehammer.

It's a verb, why not? Yeah.

-Hammered? -Hammer a wall.

How would one go about holding

it?

Yeah, how does this work?

Okay. So, first,

this is a load-bearing wall

so they're gonna reframe this.

We're gonna shore it.

So for now, we're just taking

the drywall off

and we're gonna clear it out.

So try not to hit a stud.

The stud is every 16 inches

apart.

So you're gonna want to hit in

between them

All right, you should do the

inaugural

-hit. -Hit.

I feel all kinds of emotions.

I'm excited. Nervous.

-Go big or go home. -Ah,

goodness gracious.

Oh, my gosh. Here we go. I was

scared.

-Are you ready? -My wall.

Bye-bye.

-[cheers] -You feel good?

Yeah, that feels real good. I

can do it again?

A little frustration coming out.

Whoa! Wow!

-Yes, wow! -You are so strong!

-I could do this all day.

-Amazing!

Girl, you are getting your

workout! Yes!

You could see her with every

swing

claiming the space.

-Hundred percent. -It was so

cool to see.

It was really cool to see.

Maybe you can say

you can channel.

Here we go!

This is my house. This is my

space.

This is my house!

[Lizzy] Yes!

This is my space!

-Yes. -Nice!

-My house! -Yes!

-Yes. -Oh, wow!

-Yes. -[Tinku] There you go!

-Nice! -That was a good one.

It's brighter already.

-She is strong. -I'm telling

you.

-She was like -Boom!

-Boom! -Okay.

All right, now go ahead, Lizzy.

No, let's do it together.

You go. No, it's not gonna

have

a bunch of hammers going.

We got in there, except for um,

my first hit.

[Lizzy] Ooh, that's okay.

-I hit the stud. First hit. -Oh,

my gosh.

I was so nervous that it was

gonna bounce back in your face.

And my ears were ringing.

-I was like, "girl." -I was

trying to be cool.

-Hey! Yay! -Yes!

Someone's making up for it.

Tinku, help!

This is a lot cheaper than

therapy.

-[Lizzy] Whoa. Whoa -[Tinku]

Looks nice, doesn't it?

You've been to work.

-Clearly. Wow! -So? What do you

think?

[Lizzy] This is wild. This is

wild.

-It's a load-bearing wall.

-Okay.

So this is just to keep

everything upright.

We're just supporting it until

we put in the new beams.

-Okay. So, these are temporary.

-Yep.

Got it. Okay.

So I love that for her and I

think

-she's gonna really enjoy that.

-These look nice.

Why did we put this up? What's

this for?

We were thinking that,

if you want to put cabinets all

the way around,

we can make this wall straight.

The only issue becomes,

that door is now gone to get to

the backyard.

-Ah! -So

All right. So then that means

that we do need doors

to go outside.

It would be great for her to

have some sort of access here.

What can we do with this window?

[Tinku]

And it's standard. It's

basically a standard size.

Yeah, standard size will be

fine.

Awesome. I'm with that. I like

that.

[Jessica] I'm so excited!

[Lizzy] Are you so happy to see

this house?

[Jessica] I know.

[Lizzy] Wow! Beams on beams on

beams.

-This looks great, guys!

-[Jessica] Yeah.

Oh, it's freezing.

Oh, yeah, I mean, this is

perfect

construction site attire.

Well, you know,

I just wanted to make sure I was

nice and cozy and warm.

There you go. Well, you achieved

that.

You're wearing a blanket. So,

that's nice.

It looked like you came from

church.

You came from church

-straight to demo-day, okay. -I

was wearing

I was wearing a onesie

underneath.

-With your church coat on. -But

I was cold.

-This beam looks so good, guys!

-[Jessica] It looks amazing.

-Thank you so much. -Wow!

-It opens up the whole space.

-This is wild.

I want to take these thingies

down

'cause these were the support

wall.

These are our temporary walls.

'Cause this won't be here.

Well, now that the beam is up,

we can take these down.

Oh, don't hit his kneecaps.

Could you imagine if she hit

Sammy's kneecaps?

[Tinku] I know.

She's weirdly uncoordinated.

I'm so

Literally, this is the one who's

like this.

Oh, my gosh. What are you doing?

I did all the work.

-I took all the beams down. -Are

you kidding me?

Are you kidding me? You took all

the supports down?

Mhm.

Oh, oh, oh, oh.

-I was really good at it. -Get

outta here.

Okay.

I don't know what to say.

You've got skills, homie.

Okay, I have a question.

So, everyone has to deal with

these doors

that are in their house that

have like, water heaters.

Or have like, you need an access

panel.

And that's essentially what this

is.

Um, how can we freak this and

make it cute?

This water heater is gonna give

me a

literally, a panic attack.

I don't think we expected

it to be such a visual eyesore.

I'm wondering. Do we need to

have,

-this like, aggressive hinge?

-Nope. We do hidden hinges.

[Jessica] We can do a hidden

hinge.

I can play with it and see what

it looks like.

I haven't done it before, so

If I use thick enough plywood,

with the hinges

-It might be able to work.

-Isn't this our relationship?

You haven't done it before and

we are pushing you

to do something new. There you

go.

I do need help with the tile

actually.

We still have some left and I

think you can do that.

That shouldn't be too bad.

-Okay. -What do you think?

All right, I'm down.

-Yeah? Okay. -Let's do it.

No power tools are needed.

-Okay, good. -Great.

[Lizzy] Even though I love a

power tool.

I already did all the supports

on the walls

so Jessica can get in there and

do the tiling,

in her church coat.

It's just cozy.

Lizzy is just giving me a hard

time.

This, right, Sammy?

Yeah. Put more.

[Jessica] Yeah, that's not

nearly enough, Lizzy.

Put bunch of-- look, put bunch

of it.

A bunch, Lizzy.

Lizzy, you have a supervisor

right above you.

-Just so you're aware. -I know.

Thank you.

Like this?

Yeah. More, more, more.

Sammy, did she really whip it

together?

-Yeah. -Yes, I did.

-You have to put more on it.

-This is great.

[Jessica] Just more.

[Lizzy] How far?

Like from here to here. All

this.

[Jessica] Like a lot, sister.

-All this square. -[Jessica]

Like a lot.

-Do you wanna do this? -No, I

wanna watch you.

-I can actually drop it. -He's

so frustrated with you.

[Tinku] Yeah, he's like, let me

just do it for you.

He's just gonna dump the bucket

'cause you're

Oh, my God. Sammy, are you

serious?

-It's that much? -[Jessica] Yes.

-Wow. Whoa! -He's so irritated

with you.

-Whoa! Okay. -Look, it's like a

big horse.

Go to this line. And go to the

other line.

It's just it's a little

sloppy.

-Yeah, right. I do a great job.

-A little sloppy. Sure.

You better be quiet before I

nail g*n you.

Like, just smooth it like a cake

batter?

Yeah, just like smooth-- Oh, no.

No.

-That's not good. -Nope. That

wasn't the move.

Sammy came up to me and said,

-"You did amazing work." -Lies.

He didn't do that.

"You are awesome.

You did amazing work.

Good job."

Maybe in your dreams that night.

Let me try.

[Sammy] Take this tile and put

it in the center of this one.

-In the center? -Center. Center.

Okay. Now, get this.

[Jessica] How do you feel about

my skills, Sammy?

Very nice. It looks good.

You've got another one to put.

Sammy, I think she got this.

You wanna give her that tile and

I think we can go.

Just leave my tea.

Your tea is here.

Here we go.

You know what that should be

called?

The Alba.

It's a technique.

One, two, three.

-Guess we're good. -Feeling good

about myself.

Ten more to go,

but you're gonna have to cut

them.

-I don't want to cut. -Those

pieces need to be cut.

I feel a little overwhelmed.

I think you should do the rest.

I will do the rest.

-Will you? -Yeah.

Yay!

I thought I was good at the

tiling.

Hmm.

Remember, I got you for dinner.

I will come.

-I did a great job. -Hmm.

Whatever.

Joe, take it out, clean it up.

-[Jessica] Look at the wall.

-[Lizzy] This is awesome.

I was just so happy that we got

rid of that

giant, weird furniture.

I was just like, "Why?"

You have nowhere to go. And it

was just like,

these big, bulky, brown pieces.

[Lizzy] The space before, in

this room,

it was not her vibe, at all.

And so we want to create more of

a Queendom for Koey.

We want this to be her space

that she can retreat to.

It is her vibes only.

We have to really nail down

exactly the wallpaper.

-Right? -Yellow.

-Neutral. -Yeah.

-Boring. -That's boring.

She loves yellow. This is life.

-Yeah. Yeah. -It's colorful.

-I just don't like all this. -It

feels too tropical.

-It does. -It feels too Hawaii.

It feels like she's in a jungle.

But this

Feels like, sophisticated.

Do these not look like crowns?

Yeah, it's regal.

Let's put this up on the wall.

Here. Let me Let me cut a

piece.

[Lizzy] Okay. I'm trying to hold

it.

My body was holding it.

Should we cut it Maybe,

should we go to the top

and cut it so that at least it's

usable?

Oh, I don't think we should cut

it.

Yeah, let's Let's cut it.

-Hmm. -[Jessica] Yeah.

-Like, that long? -[Lizzy

groans]

Just bear with me.

It's my soul ripping into two,

because you didn't measure

before you cut wallpaper.

It's gonna be nearly there.

I think it's gonna feel really

elegant

-and really sexy -Yes.

and really just, like,

heaven.

-Just heaven. -Just heaven.

Just right there, heaven.

Oh, this is so pretty.

It's gonna be queen vibes all

day.

-Yeah. -A Queendom.

You know, remember this

fireplace

was kind of like, just, blah?

Blah.

[Jessica] I mean, the whole room

was brown and brown.

She had incredible energy

and we want this space to feel

like her.

-Let's do this. -So,

you want to do a Venetian

plaster, right?

-That's what you want to do?

-That's what it's called.

You'll just take a little bit

out.

Do I need gloves for this?

-No, I think you're fine. -Okay,

great.

-So, you'll spread on. -Okay.

And you'll put it on nice and

even.

As much as you can.

Do I get my own spackle?

So, after she hits it once,

you can smooth it out with this

one.

Show me how to do that.

[Jessica] Okay.

I like that you still haven't

put the coffee down.

I'm just gonna like, get my

energy,

like, really even and balanced.

Your energy is what helps to

spackle?

-[Tinku] Yeah. -My chakras are

balanced.

-Lizzy's not here bothering me.

-As long as your chakra

As long as your chakras help,

that's all that matters.

Can you Can you enlist all of

your chakras to actually help?

[Tinku] At least one person that

actually

is still working, I think we're

good.

[Jessica] I need more.

[Lizzy] You understand I just

did all this down here

and you can't let it dry.

-I know, but I need more here.

-You're ruining it.

I need more in the corner.

If you really get into it, use

your legs, Jess.

It's just when I get tight.

Maybe it's because you have your

winter coat on.

You really come ready to work,

you know?

Do you know that my

It's really great.

Ow, ow, ow, ow, ow!

You shouldn't be that hurt yet.

You know what, I've been doing

stunts

since I was 17.

[Lizzy] Excuses, excuses.

And my knees.

I doubt that's the reason that

your knees are bad.

[chuckling]

And they're here!

-Yay! -Hi!

-We're here to save the day.

-Papo!

-Look at this surprise! -[Koa]

Hello!

I think it's such a great idea

to bring in original art pieces

rather than buying something

that's, you know,

-you can buy at any store.

-[Lizzy] Right.

Hello! We are so excited you're

here.

There's so many incredible

artists out there

-There are. -and I just

happen to be

related to two of 'em.

-Somehow. -Go figure.

Oh, these are beautiful!

My father-in-law, he does all of

this really amazing

photography and makes these

prints.

-[Michael] You said sunflower.

-[Jessica] Yeah.

So I went looking for things

that I've done

as sunflower motif.

Being able to tie in her love

for sunflowers

will be such a special touch

because we saw firsthand the

true joy they bring her.

I can't think of anyone better

than my father-in-law, Michael

Warren,

to make a custom piece of art.

It's just gonna make her feel so

seen.

-[Lizzy] I instantly love these.

-[Michael] Those two?

I love, like the fact that we're

not looking at the full flower,

so it's the essence of the

flower.

There's something about

-[Lizzy] Say it. Uh huh.

-this,

that's giving me something.

'Cause I also like a little bit

of this like, blue and stuff.

Right. I think what we're

envisioning

is that Papo, his art is gonna

be pretty big.

It's gonna be what, like a

40x60?

Yeah, it's gonna be like a big

piece in the entryway.

Like, right when you walk in.

So it'll be a pretty big focal

of the space.

If his has the yellow

does-- could yours have more of

the blue in it?

Blues. Yeah.

That rich blue color.

And then, Koa, my sister-in law,

she's been doing all kinds of

art.

And she's gonna do a special

piece for the family room, too.

Hanging art in your home is a

good way

to bring your personality into

your space.

Koa, can e create a little box

or something

that goes over this so that

focal of this wall

is the artwork?

That definitely feels doable,

-like, we put -[Lizzy] Thank

you.

It's like a thing here you screw

into it

-and it sits, and yeah -Oh,

my God.

Can we just have Koa on the show

from now on?

Because, thank you!

I understand her ideas.

She speaks my language.

Finally. Finally, someone who

gets me.

This is great.

Before, when we saw the space,

it was dark

-and brown, and dreary. -Yeah,

and dreary.

And now we're gonna walk into

this space

and see these beautiful pieces

of art.

Beautifully designed.

Nice and open and airy.

And it's gonna feel more like

her personality.

I think it's gonna be

incredible.

-Are we done? -I think so.

-Time to go to work. -[Jessica]

Love you so much.

-[Lizzy] Love you so much.

-[Michael] Love you, too.

Excuse me. Excuse me.

Can somebody get the door for

me, please?

[Jessica] I'll get the door for

you.

[Lizzy] Get your daddy. Love

you!

All right.

-See you guys! -Bye, guys!

-Bye. -Bye.

Watch your step! Watch your

step!

-I can't. -All right.

Scene!

[Lizzy] I'm so excited to be

back.

[Dabito] Yes, I know. They

have

[Lizzy] You think they'll have

some newer things?

[Dabito] Oh, they always have

good stuff.

I'm meeting my friend, Dabito,

today

at Sunbeam Vintage

to pick out new furniture for

Koey's bedroom.

Koey's space and her furniture

before

in her bedroom was bulky, it was

brown,

it just wasn't her style.

So, we're on the hunt for pieces

that are unique

and one-of-a-kind pieces that

fit into her bedroom.

Koey is our single mom

and she's amazing, she really

is.

She's so strong. Vibrant.

We really want to lean into her

queen vibes.

This is kind of a very similar

color

of her bedroom.

-Rich, royal colors. -Yeah,

rich.

She loves like, um, golds and

yellows.

-We're gonna create a Queendom.

-Yes.

Here's the thing about vintage

furniture.

You'll never see a piece like it

in your friend's home

so you'll get one-of-a-kind

pieces.

They already come already made,

which is a bonus.

They're great for the

environment

because you're just helping

support pieces

that have already been made.

And it's just really quality

pieces that you're getting

at an affordable price.

And you can't beat that.

[Dabito] How do we feel about

this dresser?

This is a little too small.

[Lizzy] It feels more desky than

like

[Dabito] Yeah, this is like

for

-It's like flat files. Artwork.

-Yeah, exactly.

So, that's not gonna work.

[Lizzy] This one is interesting.

[Dabito] But it feels like it's

hard to open,

so that's not practical.

And we need more intricate

details.

Yeah, something that tells a

little bit more of a story.

-This one is really cool. -Yes.

You know what the hardware is?

It's very Wonder Woman.

Oh, we're talking about strong.

Well, there's another great

piece behind you.

-[gasps] This one is -This is

kind of cool.

[Dabito] I love the ripple

effect on the front.

[Lizzy] Kind of gives you that

-mixed, almost wood-marble feel.

-Right.

This gives that talk.

You just can't find this kind of

stuff out there.

I mean, that's why I shop

vintage.

It's like one-of-a-kind and you

don't have to assemble.

[Lizzy] Or buy.

-That's why. -We did that.

[Lizzy] This is for Koey. She's

a single mom.

[Jessica] Yes, single mom.

I feel like, for her,

I think we should lean really

heavy into

-Spa moment. Beauty. -Yes. Yes.

-Self care. -Yes.

-Let's do it. Okay. -All that.

We have some soaking salts.

[Lizzy] I love the salts.

We have some A candle. Why

not?

[Lizzy] I love the candle.

-All right. -Cute.

And a little bubble bath.

-Why not? -Nice!

Maybe some

cleaning products that she can

refill.

Grab some of those

-with the refills. Okay.

-Awesome.

[Lizzy] I think I need another

basket.

[Jessica] I know. All right.

[Lizzy] This is so different

from the last time she saw it.

[Jessica] Let's put Papo's

painting up.

-I love that we landed here. -Me

too.

Each sunflower represents a

family member.

I know, which I think is so

great

-including her grandson, -Yep.

which is sweet.

[Lizzy] Let's put up Koa's

painting, too, then.

Wow, this is so legit.

It's like watery and cloudy. I

don't know. It's like

It's like she took exactly what

we wanted

[Jessica] It's like, it's

wonderful.

[Lizzy] And made it work.

[Jessica] I think a nice hack

for people is

we're using two main colors in

here.

We're doing like, that yellowy

marigold.

And then, we're also using like,

blues and they're in the same

tone.

And then we have black and white

to kind of

that becomes a neutral.

That you can mix with those two

really bold colors.

So, I'm inspired to clean this

space.

Oh, you're gonna energy purify

up in here.

I'm bringing in some white sage.

You're bringing in the big boys

up in here. Okay.

I feel like we need to have like

some chakra healing music.

[Lizzy] Oh, really? 'Cause I was

totally thinking like Jazz.

And R&B. I don't know.

We went two totally different

ways there.

Old, stale, negative energy, we

welcome you to leave.

You do not need to be here.

-[Lizzy] You ready? -[Jessica]

Okay.

I gotta hold her hand, right? I

gotta hold her hand, too.

That's right.

We're just like a sisterhood.

Oh, is that-- Mommy's so

excited.

I am. I am. It's so crazy.

I am so ready to see my house.

-Kaleigh, are you so excited?

-Yes.

We cannot wait for you to see

this.

On a scale of one to ten, I'm at

like in the hundred.

One hundred.

[Jessica] Are you ready?

Welcome home!

Oh, my God!

[Jessica] Are you ready?

Welcome home!

Oh, my God!

[Koey] Oh, my God!

-Wow! -Oh, my God!

Oh, my God!

-[Ashleigh] Wow! -[Koey] Oh, my

God!

I have died and gone to heaven.

Walking in, it was just an

overwhelming joy

that I could've never created

myself.

Is yellow mom's favorite color?

Yeah.

[both] What do you guys think?

This is amazing. Amazing.

Amazing.

[Koey]

[Lizzy]

[Koey]

That picture on the wall over

there,

oh, my God. Oh, my God!

[Koey] And I swear to you

as a kid, I always wanted like,

a breakfast nook like this.

And I didn't even tell you guys

that I wanted it.

So this was perfect.

Like, hit the nail on the head

with this one.

Like, is that perfect?

[Lizzy] Wow!

I don't know where I am. This is

not Kansas anymore.

[Koey] This is nothing I

could've ever imagined.

Like, I was like,

"What are they gonna do with

this small kitchen?"

It doesn't even look like the

same house.

-I know. -Like, I don't even--

No.

This makes us really, really

happy.

Insane.

[Lizzy] Is anything here missing

that you remember there?

I was looking, but I

[Lizzy] Now there's a full door.

Yeah.

So now, you can actually

enter and exit when you have

people over.

When I tell you I don't

recognize this space,

you guys, like, transformed it

completely.

[Lizzy] And we still wanted to

give you an island,

so this is also moveable.

So, if you do have people over

and you want this to be clear

-It is? -[Jessica] Yeah.

Well, it's not stuck to the

ground.

[Koey] It's not like, super

heavy like the last one?

It's like a dance floor in my

kitchen.

That's right, yeah. Get down,

girl, yeah.

I love it.

There was a water heater, right?

[Lizzy] It's in there.

-[Jessica] So, we hid it.

-[Lizzy] We hid it.

[Lizzy] It was a big thing for

us.

[Jessica] And you still need to

get access to it

just in case you need to get to

it.

So, these are removable

shelves

-And these are doors. -And these

are doors.

And we just put a paneling over

it.

-No way. -So, you can still open

them

and get access to the water

heater.

This is on wheels. So it just

Moves right out of the way.

I mean, to be honest with you, I

think it's a genius hack

in any eyesore of a moment of a

space in a kitchen,

a bedroom, anything in your

house.

[Jessica] You put a floating

shelf in front

and it just looks like a wall.

No one knows there's a door

behind there.

Right. We love a hidden moment.

Can I tell you my favorite thing

about this gallery wall?

Everything for me.

I was like, there's this huge

thing there,

how are we gonna have a

beautiful gallery wall?

And so, we came up with an idea

to cover it. And it's still

really easy.

This represents-- Hello?

One, two, three.

[Koey] As soon as I walked in, I

saw that.

[Lizzy] This is you guys.

[Jessica] Okay, we have one more

surprise.

Are you ready?

I am so nervous.

I don't know if I can handle

anymore.

-[Lizzy] You got this. -This is

your sanctuary.

[Lizzy] Now this is your space.

Oh, my God! Oh, my God!

-[Ashleigh] Wow! -[Koey] Oh, my

goodness!

[Jessica] So, we really wanted

you to feel

like a queen.

We wanted to celebrate you.

We feel like you have been

through so much in life.

You always sacrifice so much for

other people.

And we wanted you to have your

space,

your sanctuary, your place to

This is gorgeous.

I could wake up to this

everyday.

I'm not getting out of bed. What

job?

What?

[Jessica] And the furniture's

beautiful and unique

but it's right for this room.

It's not bulky, it's not

overpowering.

It's space.

-You can breathe. Yeah. -I can

breathe.

This piece right here is a

one-of-a-kind.

-Uh, this is a vintage piece.

-It's a vintage piece, yeah.

You guys knew.

Well, the house was lacking your

touch,

your vibe, and your energy.

-Jinx. You know. -100 percent.

100 percent, so

Should we, um

Let's go back into the other

room.

In this crazy, busy world of

mine,

having this space and wanting to

be home more,

means more family time.

I love it.

And I know my daughters love it.

And I know that just having a

space that we're comfortable in,

we're gonna try to create more

memories in this house.

We have another surprise.

-[Koey] Another surprise? -Yes.

Hi, guys!

Hi!

This is my father-in-law,

Michael Warren.

And my sister-in-law, Koa

Warren.

-My Papo, Michael -Nice to

meet you.

he did the sunflower for you.

-[Koey] Stop it. -[Jessica] And

Koa

painted this one for you.

I absolutely love it. Thank you

so much.

Don't you start crying, 'cause

I'll start crying.

I know, right?

[Jessica] Here is your parting

gifts from us.

Here's cleaning things and

obviously

-bath and body. -Some self-care

moments for you.

[Koey] You keep saying that I

need that.

I love it.

That's what it's about.

[Jessica] And then, we put

together this little

like, crystal, sage, and palo

santo.

I love Koey so much.

I love her energy.

I love the vibe.

She's had so much life

and I feel like this is the time

for her where she can be

her own self

separate from her sister.

And really have her own

identity.

Yeah. She wants to fly, baby.

Fly.

It feels good to my soul.

-Aw. -We love it.

This is what I needed.

Like, I need-- everybody needs

to walk into their home

and feel like, relaxed.

Like, you want to come home, so.

That is very true.

That's how I'm gonna feel

walking into this door,

every day.

That makes us feel so special.

You made it happen. So, thank

you so much.
