I vote for colorful mountains. I feel like you will smile every time you walk in your room if you see those! The wood one just blends in.

@nancyj621

Dawn, I am probably as old or older than your parents. I wanted to say I have absolute confidence in your ability to make the best decisions for your kids and yourself.  I believe you worked very hard to keep your marriage together, and had finally come to the conclusion that you could not live that way, and that situation was not healthy for your kids either. I do not need for you to explain the details. It is none of our business. Please know you have the love and support of a huge fan base. ❤

It is really sad that Christians have the most hurtful comments. I am a believer myself and have had the same experience. But I heard this quote at church on Sunday, and it is SO GOOD!  “The posture of Jesus is not a pointed finger but is open arms.”  Let’s stop pointing fingers and start opening up our arms to others and be the love that Jesus has called us to be.

My mother would say to people who would ask inappropriate questions.."If you forgive me for not saying.. I will forgive you for asking". I always loved that.

@dianabryant841

You do not need to explain your life choices to anyone! No one knows what you’re dealing with. Your willingness to give grace to critics is admirable. Take care of yourself and your loved ones!

"Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible."   If you have lost subscribers, they were not your people. All the rest of us are here for you, Dawn.

@Clutterbug

I am so excited for you!!! I wish I could have a tiny house in my backyard, just so I could have a mini escape on those days I just can't "people".

@tonimcintyre-wx3qn

My grandmother always said to clean up your own back yard, before you talk about someone else,this is so true.

@franceswright8277

Shame on anyone that criticized your decision.   No one understands the loss and guilt from losing a marriage.   I so support and will remember you in prayers.  God is always faithful, and good things will come out of this sadness.   Stay strong in the Lord.

@charlottefletcher

Women are always expected to put up with bad behaviour to keep the peace, it wears on you. You made the right choice. Sorry there are some rude commenters who say otherwise. You can’t spend your whole life miserable and waiting for your partner to change, they won’t. Sure they’ll put on a big show when you leave but rest assured that if they wanted to change they would’ve done it the first time you asked. You deserve better then that. 

I’m excited for your new tiny house! I hope it’s a peaceful getaway for you. And the colourful mountains are definitely the right choice.

@sarahhoffman6569

Dawn you wouldn’t believe how you and your channel has literally saved my life. I have epilepsy and had a seizure while I was driving. I hit a tree and have spent the last 16 months learning to walk again. I can’t drive anymore or work. I’ve lost all my friends and independence. I’ve became very depressed and have thought about committing suicide many times. I joined the minimal moms group and I’m getting my house in order and getting rid of soo much. The first thing I do in the morning is watch your videos and it gets me excited to get up and start working on my house. It maybe from my wheelchair but every 5 minute matters. I really do love you Dawn and feel like we are true friends. Never give up!! ❤️

@lauragilbert8732

I think the colourful mountains for the bedroom, just brings a bit of nature indoors and a nice pop of colour to break up the neutral colours :) 
Sorry to hear about your friends loss, that sort of thing definitely gives you a kick in the guts and makes you really look at life with a fresh perspective of appreciation. Also, keep your head high against the haters. I was so sad to hear about the changes in your life recently too cos I've followed you for a few years, but the people who make judgement don't know what they're talking about because they haven't walked in your shoes. Thanks for being an inspiration to so many of us ❤

@bettyegilliam

Dawn, I don’t think you gave up. The loneliest I have ever been was in a dysfunctional marriage. Sometimes I think that if you stay in a marriage that isn’t working, you are gradually killing yourself little by little. I think you are very brave, and I’m so sorry you have been receiving negative comments. 
I would go with the colorful mountains.

@KarisParadiseVintage

My husband is a pastor and we have been in ministry practically our whole adult lives. We've learned a lot, and one of those things is we don't truly know anyone else's story. We are here to offer the best biblical guidance we can, but at the end of the day decisions and choices are up to individuals. Our job is to love and support them through the process. Divorce absolutely stinks for everyone which you know and is probably why you agonized for so long and didn't make that decision lightly. I appreciate your honesty and I'm sorry for the hurtful things people have said. Trust me - we've been sliced and diced many times over the years. I'll tell you what I have to tell myself all the time - that's not Jesus. He isn't the one who hurts us. So we run to Him, climb on His lap, and ask Him to heal and comfort us. Press on, sister. ❤

@jessicakierstead2244

Dawn, First, colored mountain pictures! 2nd, NO ONE but you knows what you've been through. Even though you share so much of your life with us, those who feel that they can "cast stones" should be ashamed of themselves. Don't filter yourself, we love you for who you are!  Thank you for continuing to show up for all of us!  <3

@scrappedlives

Sometimes people seem to think that you suddenly decided to divorce because it comes as a surprise to them. But most marriages are broken years before you make that decision. The moment I decided to divorce after 6 years of struggling was when the teacher told me my kids didn’t want to come home at noon to eat because we were fighting often and there was to much stress. But never assume that someone suddenly decides to divorce, it’s always a struggle. It was my decision to divorce but I got comments why I was sad about it, because it was me who made the decision. But that doesn’t mean you can’t be sad. You intended the marriage to be for life and it feels you failed. Not only for yourself, also for your children. So people should think twice before commenting.

@bluerubydoo6080

I love the bright and colourful three piece mountain scene. It is so joyous! 😊

@NeurospicySpaces

I am a former single mom (remarried now), and I just want to say that you owe no one anything. Not one person watching you is owed an explanation for your choices. With that said, I am happy for you and your kids. You are doing great and you should be proud of all you have achieved and the person that you are.

@lindsaysmith5318

The end of this video made me cry, Dawn, knowing how hard you've worked on this channel and how long I've been subscribed, that people would criticize you or unsubscribe. Man. Life does get lifey, and I honestly strive to navigate hardship the way you have -- with such grace and professionalism. You are a role model to me as a young mom.
