My name is Clare and I’m excited to be starting up my new blondybuilder UA-cam channel! I normally work in the emergency department but on my days off I enjoy doing house renovations as blondybuilder 👷♀️
I love being able to share creative ideas, turning trash to treasure by upcycling anything I can and turning it into stylish home decor. It’s so satisfying trying things yourself and even more so knowing that you’ve saved money. In the last year I’ve been knocking down walls, building kitchens and up cycling doors - to making my own curtain tie backs, chandeliers and concrete bowls... I have so many more ideas to come and I can’t wait to share them with you over the coming weeks and months. I hope I can inspire you to try things out yourself and be creative.

#bathroommakeoveruk #savingmoneychallenge #shinyfloor My brother asked me to help him out with a property he rents out - it was in pretty bad condition after the previous tenants moved left. My challenge was to give it a makeover as quickly as possible - for as little cost as possible! In the end I spent £82.26 to be precise and it only took a few hours of my time in total- I just had to wait f...

If this is ethonal(or blue fire) then no one will know it’s fire cause when there ligth it is invisible but when is in the dark it will be visible
You’re a phenomenal woman!!! Loved this ❤
Good job! I like your miter saw. What brand and size is it? I can see its a sliding right,?
The comments are wild, do people know it's just Methanol that burns almost invisible? I've lit gas, vodka, and many other things with plenty of Ethanol and I can assure you you'd notice if it leaked
What is the end length of this rope thanks please reply
Hi thank you so much! Beautiful and different from all others I have made. Are you from Scotland? Beautiful accent!
Thank you! Yes 🏴 x
Do they make condensation?
Well done , what a lovely job
Thank you 😊
Does the bottom of this fire get hot? I have carpet and wondered if I needed a hearth
Hi, no the bottom doesn’t get hot on mine, the top does x Just be careful if you drop/ splash any fuel around carpet it’s highly flammable until it evaporates so would still be safer to have a hearth 😊
Hello, great video! Where can I get the scented oil? Thanks.
Thanks! I buy it off Amazon. They are selling it in lots of different scents x
Love it, thank you👏👏💖
It looks perfect to me. Admire at your determination and hard work. Please be careful and wear gloves and other gears to protect yourselves in your next project. Inspirational to use recycling materials .👍👍
Knock out some fence beams and replace with metal hardware cloth, give them a viewwwwww! ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Fabulous ❤
Great job! Did you say how long it took to complete the catio?
Not for me😢... the spray black😢
Ugly
Thank you for using scraps that can be found around the house. Too many of these videos use expensive stuff most of us cant afford so we just give up. Thank you for giving us back confidence knowing we can too ❤
You are so welcome! Thank you for your lovely comment xx
Thank you. Finally someone made a catio out of a space like what i have for my cats. I felt bad that mine is not outside. But to be honest, i feel safer with mine safe inside a room that leads to outside, but is not actually outside. This video gave me some ideas. The space is about 5 x 12
Great job.
That doesn’t look like outside… just another room.
Turned out really nice 😊
So beautiful 😍.
Thank you! 😊
Your cat catio give me a lot of ideas for to buildt in Our large backyard behind our house
How can you open your fridge/freezer if your radiator cover is in the way. It is very nice though
Yes thanks, it still opens plenty!
How much moisture does it add to the room?
Can’t say I’ve noticed any change either way.
Thank you for sharing! Great teaching skills. I have tried to learn this from others and could not master it. Thank you for taking time to explain steps ,not just hurry through without explaining. 😊
Thank you so much for the lovely feedback 😊
What type of carpet did you use here? It’s not all one king strip is it? My stairs are shaped like this but always wanted stairs done this style. Any tips on what material to use? Looks awesome ❤
It’s a runner from Dunelm Mill, all one piece but I cut and angled on the corner steps, you can hide the joins in the crease of the next step x
Wooooow that looks amazing!!
What happens when no color at all gets old and tired?
Paint it again 🙃
Excellent share thanks
Thank you 🙏

Nice job … it’s looks great
Nice! Have you noticed any fumes or smell from the paint when you turn the stove on?
Thanks, no none at all
Nice work, from a fellow Scot, diyer, & cat lover, who is just now starting to plan a catio for the spring and summer.
Good luck with your Catio! 😻
What paint do you use on the sink and does it stay could you do it in a toilet
I used rustoleum all surface spray paint. It does last if left alone however does scratch if you take something sharp to it. I don’t think it would last on the inside of basin or toilet but does on the outside. Other things you could try are using a primer like BIN first then spraying on a textured paint (I used a concrete effect one on a fireplace in another video and I think that would be harder wearing and more forgiving than a smooth paint) you could try a glittered paint!! X
Its absolutely amazing! Your so creative, Beautiful work! . You have given me ideas for my catio,. Thanks for a wonderful vid.❤ just subscribed 🙂
Thank you 🥰you’re very welcome, and good luck with your Catio 😻
So you're invincible if you paint a wall? Wow
Is it really necessary to go out of your way to try and belittle someone and leave a negative comment? I’m not claiming to be invincible, the song is called ‘unstoppable’. Perhaps if you knew my background and exactly what I have achieved you might take that back. The aim of my videos here are to inspire others, especially females, to give DIY a try, and share ideas of how to make home improvements for minimal cost. If you don’t like them, jog on. And always, be kind 🤘🏻
Amazing.. you have done a great job.. no wonder your fur babies love it..
Hi, that looks amazing. Would youbrecoment wrapping or paining a kitchen?
Thanks 🥰if I was doing it myself I would probably find it easier and cheaper painting then wrapping kitchen units x
Did it have a primer in the paint?
Yes 👍🏻
This is a neat video and the catio looks great! One quibble ... the whimsical background music bed is great, however, it made it difficult to hear your soft-spoken voice and just what it was you were saying. Voice up, background music low (coming from someone who used to work in commercial/advert production. :)
Thanks for the feedback 😊
Wow!!
Killed it!
So resourceful!!
Painting the countertop is the only doubting have in this one, how hasn’t stood up against daily use?
Really well actually, few small chips in 2 years but easy to repair again
Great job but why the black??
Black is the new grey?! I’m just going through a black phase 🤣🖤
The gloss finish would be even easier to keep clean 👍
The before-and-after are truly impressive!
