Wait, what??? End of the season???? 😱 What do you mean end of the season??? 😳 When it's the next season starting??? Can't take another 2 years please 😭😭😭

I so look forward to Monica's makeovers...I can't believe this season is over already!!! Please bring the next season sooner than later!! 😊❤👏👏👏

I just love seeing you back again, Monica. The Weekender is one of my favorite all-time series, I have watched each season over and over many times. I think my favorite this season was the mid-century modern makeover, it was just balanced so beautifully and wasn't all "satellite" late 1950s-to mid 1960s gone wild style. You really have the perfect touch, a real gift for design and decor.

I think someone has mentioned this before but Monica really is the Mary Poppins of interior design 🤩Brilliant job as usual, love the cosy feel of the bathroom and the tile choice is just awesome, really lovely couple too, they were so appreciative, go the Weekender! Also, special shout out to Matty, we need to see more of him cause we have missed him too! ☺

I cannot, for the life of me, pick which makeover I loved the most this season. I loved them all! Each one was unique in style for their spaces! Jobs well done! I can't wait for the next season!

I love it, however, I would have painted the ceiling the same green as the tiles.

This video is right on time! I have a 1983 townhome with similar bathrooms and issues. I carefully removed the old vanities as I donated them. I'm keeping the existing tile floor too. The checkerboard tile isn't my style but I can appreciate it. I purchased a vanity and the base fit perfectly in the nook. Unfortunately, the included marble top extends on the side, so I've got to get it shaved off on each side. Most importantly, the couple loves their bathroom, great job!

I’ve loved each of the makeovers for different reasons that are specific to my own space and abilities. This channel is what I’ve been missing since I canceled cable and lost access to a certain channel that I used to watch regularly. I will occasionally see a show and realize it has gone so high-end as to be unachievable. And, frankly, with a negative tone. I love this series because Monica is so engaging and encouraging. The homeowners’ reactions are fun to see. I particularly liked this episode when the homeowner absolutely went after the vanity demo. I even appreciate the skeptics because the tone doesn’t read as if they are fighting every choice like it’s their jobs. I like to see the style choices for inspiration. I may not want a green bathroom for myself but I can take all the inspiration to make better style decisions in my own space. And it encourages me to tackle some projects that I might doubt myself. Like tile! I really love this series and hope more seasons are to come.

Nice update, however I wish you guys did the shower doorframe in black to match the fixtures plus that ugly mixer shower knob...not so nice 😞 I love mix-metals but black, gold and the silver/ aluminium in that small space don't likely!

@darlaburnett8666 Жыл бұрын

OK! The bathroom is very beautiful, I do think that the retro 80s look that you took out the bathroom you kind of put back in with the tile but your homeowner is more than extremely happy with it all and that’s really all that counts! But that was there pretty semi-easy but massive transformation! With some of the others on this channel end of season !?!?! Lord I hope it doesn’t take another two years I hope you take Leica a month off and start up again lol

@valerieann2751 Жыл бұрын

Yes! The checkerboard tile is very outdated and 80’s. When I saw the preview , I thought the after pic was the before picture. I really don’t like it at all.

i love this overall espically the tile - but the silver show handle, black faccuet and black hardware then gold lights look a little mixmatched. I think a gold shower handle to bring it together, as well as elimate one of the 3 metal colors, would look so much better.

I usually love your design choices. And this bathroom was no different than usual except for the checkerboard tiles. Not a fan. It makes me think of a diner kitchen even though the colors aren't the same. I did like the colors that you chose for the walls and the ceiling although I would have done the entire room walls and ceiling with the ceiling color. I look forward to Saturdays because I get my dose of Weekender!

Love the show, and they seem so happy with their new space! It's not my style, with the rustic tiles, and the darker ceiling. I would prefer a closed laundry hamper (don't look at my delicates, please!) and I would love to see a plant /small chair in the corner to fill that space,; a pretty runner in front of the sinks; and a change to the bathroom door. The mirrors, vanity and new lighting are great and the shower doors are a nice upgrade, but I wonder why you didn't centre the towel hooks under the shelf?

I like everything (paint, vanity, shelves, art, etc.) except the tiles. The brown edges make them look dirty. For myself, I would go for the not aged green and white tiles. Not bad for a weekend and it's giving me " I can do this" makeover vibes.

This is not updated, not even cohesive. That checkerboard pattern is bold and will become tiring very quickly. The ceiling is too dark, too orange, and the walls are too light. They don't have the strength to carry the ceiling.The vanity was the object of contention. Nice choice. I would have added pull out slides and drawers. Love the shower doors.

Monica is very skilled but all these makeovers for homes has gotten so sad. The owners are usually so aloof and pretentious. Do they realize how blessed they really are ?

But if Monica came to your house and did a free house makeover, you would have no complaints. i don't understand this mentality of "Oh, everyone is rich, but I'm poor, so it's OK if I get free stuff and they don't." wtf.
