That post-it note trick for catching the drilling dust - GENIUS. ABSOLUTELY GENIUS.
A new kitchen and a new milestone for me - making a whole piece of furniture! 🥹 I'm really happy to be able to share the journey with you guys in this new place.
For all those asking, often when you rent in Germany, the kitchen doesn't come with the apartment. You have the option to buy one built by the older tenants, or like us, build one on your own. And no, the landlord does not reimburse you. When you move out, you either sell it to the next tenant, or bring the kitchen with you to the next apartment. (We sold our previous kitchen, which is why we started from scratch!)
When I first moved to 🇩🇪 this was a strange culture for me, but I actually really like it now because we get to design the kitchen totally to our needs and wants ☺️
congratz on the new kitchen! Enjoy!
I’m so proud of you! I can refinish antiques and repair them but I’ve never built a piece. You have become quite an accomplished young lady. 💚
Unbelievably gorgeous and all by and you Pats hard work!!! It’s truly beautiful 💕❤️
hi! your kitchen is lovely! 🥺 can i ask what are roughly the measurements of your kitchen? my boyfriend and i will have to furnish our new home and we also have a L kitchen and it looks similar to yours ^^
Very interesting...I know what Im reading but still trying to process it ☺️
You’re truly an Asian’s delight. I know coming from Asia where all our furniture and other builds are “made” for us, it’s empowering to do it on our own. I love that you took your time and did it just the way you like it. The result is so pretty! ☺️☺️☺️
The same happens here in America, full of different ethnicities. We have furniture made for us too and make it by hand or put it together if we buy it from IKEA. Most of the furniture made for IKEA is already made for us and our choice to hire someone to put it together for us or we can put it together ourselves. It’s not pieces you can design it the we want it to fit our home, we choose a style to fit our home. My husband and I who live in California, have taken the time to put furniture together too. It looks great! All countries have furniture made for everyone. Some people buy’s furniture from other countries they like to have in their home.
@@HappyGirl92593 That’s not what I meant. In a lot of countries in Asia, most regular home owners would never use a drill or any kind of kit. Even to install lights or put nails on the walls, we call the respective professionals. Until very recently ikea was not commonplace. Of course we choose furniture to our liking and arrange it likewise, but never went beyond that. Labour is cheap and people prefer to get it done. I just meant knowing how to use tools is empowering, whether you actually want to use it or not. Hope this explanation helps. :)
@@GarfieldinGarden I happen to have seen several videos of people in Asian countries such as Japan and South Korea, buy things from IKEA or a home building supply store, a hardware store, in their area and they have used drills, nails, hammers, hand saws, electric saws, to build shelves, counter tops, tables, bookshelves, put chairs together for their table or desk, following how to build a desk or an extra closet space, Asian people do buy kits. Even young single Asian girls who live on their own, know how to build things on their own with tools, some of them even own their own tool cases. Since most Asian countries have an IKEA and home building supply stores, they learned and teach others how to use tools. You think she is the only person out of all Asian countries, that has picked up a electric saw or drill? No, she’s not. I suggest you watch other videos from Asian countries, type in building a table or desk or using tools, you’ll be shocked! Don’t assume how people are in other countries. You could be wrong… you actually are since you made assumptions about all Asian people.
@@HappyGirl92593 I have seen other videos. But what you see on UA-cam are the ones are not majority. Moreover, there are several videos where the people you see might be building their own things from ages, for the lack of assistance. In cities it is quite common to call somebody. And of course I am not talking about all Asians either. That is why I said most, not all.
And you’re missing the point, for someone who never used anything build wise before, it is empowering is my whole point. Peace. :)
@@GarfieldinGarden I guess you’re an expert on Asians. 🤷🏻♀️
This made me cry. My late father built most of the furniture in the family home. Watching you made me realise how much thought and love he must have put in the construction and design and overall styling of the home. Guests love our family home. Thank you. You made my day.
I love how this is basically your old apartment but improved and obviously better. It's like we were seeing your creativity in bits and pieces because of the obvious limitations of the other place and now we can see it in its full potential, if that makes any sense!
I feel like you have found the perfect in between of minimalism and maximalism. It looks perfect! Your style is so beautiful and you have truly shown it in this kitchen. Can’t wait for more!♥️
That coffee nook is truly inspiring, I can't imagine what it's like to build an entire piece of furniture from scratch but you've shown me it's possible. The whole kitchen is stunning and you can tell each piece has been thought out carefully!
Loved the island! The open concept kitchen is definitely ideal for an island!
We can see that you’re really putting your time and heart and soul in it! End product is just WOW! So beautifully done!
We’ll always be here to support your makeovers and other videos and will wait faithfully for your videos to come 🫶🏽
Appartments in Germany dont come with a kitchen. Wowww that stayied with me. And when you go ypu take the kitchen with you? Germans wake up and install kitchens before hand. You girl you just create magic. I love your style sooooo much. Now its time to build more furniture. Keep going. Your my fagorite Asian girl. 👏👏👏👏👏👏💪💪💪❤❤❤
I love your kitchen bc it’s so basic, simple with a warm color. When you did not decorate your kitchen by all expensive stuff making me feel connected to my life. 👍🏽
Absolutely stunning! I’m so happy for you two, you deserve this beautiful home and your videos are always such a treat and real inspiration, but thank you as well for reminding us that making a home takes time 🌱✨
I loved your old kitchen, but this one is gorgeous. As a Scandinavian, I consider IKEA the mother ship, so I particularly love that. Every aspect is carefully considered, this home is truly loved and it shows.
I was about to eat my cereal, and found that cloudyhills posted! what a great time to eat while watching
I just love how you and your husband make your home, your home. The dedication, patience and your gift to create your space is so commendable. 👌👌👌
You are so incredibly creative with all of your DIY designs... That coffee bar with the soft close! It's perfect
What a fantastic job you've done with the kitchen. It looks absolutely stunning! 😍
It is welcoming and humbling at the same time, its so cozy and I would love to live there.
that post it hack blew me away. im in love with the way it came together...it feels so homey and warm
すごい！全てが既製品のように美しい！家づくりってこうやってするんですね！✨
I can't wait to start improving our new apartment with your videos as inspiration
Amazing work (as usual), Hill 👏🏼😍 I really think the smallest details make the biggest difference here 💕 and you might think it took you more time than expected to finish this project, but most of us can probably never do something like this on our own in this lifetime 😅 so hats off to you! 🫡
Always looking forward to your videos. Hope you’re enjoying your new home ✨
I love the simplicity and functionality of your new kitchen space; it's practically perfect!
The kitchen turned out so lovely! And I'm super impressed with the coffee station/table you built!
As fellow Asian living in Germany this is such an inspiration. I'm in the middle of looking for new rental and dream of my own cozy space. Your DIY give me a lot of inspirations and coziness as well. Great videos!
The filming of this is just so magical. Thank you for sharing!!!
it's so refreshing to watch a diy kitchen that is not the usual black and white one
I adore your kitchen. It hits the right mix between the coziness I’d want in most of my house, while still being minimal enough to feel like an empty workspace
It's a cozy and warm kitchen🤎 Your senses are amazing!🤩
Love your films, they’re so relaxing and inspiring! This one is a cracker, especially impressed with your table - so good! 😊
What to say now!Every time you fix something I say wow is getting better and better and l like them all so much!I loved your previous home but now I understood that I love your creativity and how flexible you become in all spaces!When I read that 1.5 year ago you didn't know even to use a screwdriver I couldn't believed it!Bravooo excellent job both of you!!!
you’re such an inspiration! really love how you manage to assemble everything on your own
This was so helpful to watch! My husband and I just bought our first home and are renovating the kitchen with IKEA cabinets. Will probably watch this again as a point of reference.
This is so cool! I love how you can look around the kitchen and see things you made / did all by yourself - all the love and efforts you've put in making it! Truly inspiring ❤
I’m so excited for the cooking vids with this kitchen. So stunning!
Thank you for sharing a piece of your beautiful home with us! I’ve been watching your videos for a year and it’s part of my morning routine 🥰.
Absolutely fantastic. What an amazing job you did making the console table. You should both be very proud! 👍🥰
I almost cried watching this. It was so nice and warm to watch. Like it’s so nice to build something from scratch like that truly is so emotionally satisfying.
Dá uma satisfação enorme quando olhamos o resultado do nosso trabalho! A cozinha ficou belíssima!!!!!!
This is the most beautiful kitchen I have ever seen! 💗💗 You really inspire me to use more "scary tools" and diy things that don't need to be purchased!
Your kitchen is so relaxing and calm. Love it!
That coffee nook is sooo cute, I love that table and that you hanged some cups there, it really looks lovely ❤
The kitchen looks stunning! And the table... oh my! ❤
Once again, I'm astonished at how you were able to put together such a beautiful space, with so much warmth, life & personality - in such a short amount if time! ☺
The new kitchen looks absolutely beautiful! And you’re such an inspiration to me to start building/DIYing things!
this was a such a treat to see this video!! appreciate how you took and respected the time you needed to do this project :)
you inspire me to learn more about DIY and hope to hear how you started through the youtube DIY rabbit hole! the idea of starting is overwhelming ngl
This is perfect timing since I'm about to upgrade my new kitchen! Getting so many great ideas from this as always ❤
Your videos are always so peaceful. I loved your previous kitchen, and this one is beautiful too. I love that you built a table with a drawer! That's impressive. ❤
I love how cozy and comfortable it looks. I think you did a fantastic job and I look forward to all your videos
Absolutely beautiful!!!! Loving the island so much, congrats! Can't wait for the next project!
I love your style! The minimalist vibe but with beautiful and interesting pieces and textures, it’s so beautiful!
fellow singaporean living in california. just want to say i enjoyed your videos and the outcomes of your projects are stupendous. 🙂
Great video and work! Thanks for showing how mixing different colored metals in a kitchen DOES work. I'm inspired.
I really love the idea of hanging your favorite cups and printing the view from your kitchen ♡♡
I loved your previous kitchen, it had so much cozyness, though it was so little. With this one you are showing the world the growth you're making, and that is so nice! I personally got a feeling of you settling down, with all the mindfullness to your current needs, like a caring parent to your inner child. That's awesome!
And I love the coffee table and the knob you chose, it's just perfect match! ❤
Looking forward to see more 🌸
this video is so full of warmth
Such a cozy and relaxing kitchen. Great job!!
It’s beautiful! If only you knew how lovely your new kitchen would be when you were dealing with the stress of packing and moving!
Came across your channel a few days ago and now I have been watching your videos ever since.
Such an inspiring journey and it truly makes me wanna build something from the scratch now.
Love from Malaysia. ❤
Amazing job, Hillary! What a beautiful, cozy, warm kitchen you've made. Love u! ❤︎
I love love your videos! They are so cozy and inspiring all in one!
Right now I'm patiently waiting to have my kitchen installed and I also want to wait a couple of weeks after it to start making changes and decorating, so we can get the feel of it and see what we need or don't. We also have a nice pantry so we can skip upper cabinets. If you're 1.53cm you don't really appreciate them 😂
Can't wait to see more of your videos and your journey!
Your kitchen is amazing, it's so beautiful! I love all the creativity and thought you put into each decision. My favourite has to be the plates in the drawers, and no upper cabinets. I'm short too and this would be a dream in my kitchen. I'm so inspired! You've both done an incredible job!
So gorgeous! I love every minute of your build. You inspire me so much. Take good care of yourself and Pat.
Absolutely magnificent! I love everything. Totally appeals to my soul.
Looks lovely and cozy!
soooooo lovely and calm space!! love it!
I love watching your videos! So relaxing and so inspiring! Thank you for sharing your journey with us 🥹
J'adore "la vibe" que dégage ces vidéos. Chaque fois c'est un réel plaisir 😍. Thanks a lot for the inspiration
I applaud you for making your first piece of furniture! That’s so cool! I think you really pulled this makeover off again 💖🥹
The shelves are my fave part!
Wow!!! I love your new kitchen!!! Congratulations for finally putting it off!! ❤️
Beautiful! Many blessings in your new home! 🎉🥰🥂🍻🍮🧁🍭🍝🫕🧆🌭🥮🍱🥧
This kitchen is just so pretty! You did an amazing job! 🧡
Your kitchen is beautiful! It's been so fun to watch the transfromation and enjoy your new kitchen😊
Warmth and light make its coziness ❤
I love your videos ! Always a pleasure to watch it !
So cool, love the vibes, you are such an inspiration!
Hi Hill!!! I was looking forward to seeing your kitchen. It looks beautiful and functional, upper cabinets really don't seem to be necessary. Thanks for the tips during the process of assembling the pieces, they make all the difference!!!😍💖✨
That is absolutely amazing! I love it!
the kitchen looks fantastic, and as always I found your video super calming to watch.
What a great job! Beautiful kitchen! Can't wait to see the next rooms in the house! ☺️🥰
can we just simply appreciate the editing and all shoots! so nicely done!
Love it especially the island
The coffee bar table is stunning!
La cocina os quedó preciosa, el mueble del café es mi favorito, saludos desde España 😘
Very impressed with the table for your coffee bar you two did a great job.
I just love love love the way you create your home and your passion to learn to build things by yourself. Its so inspiring!✨ I Love watching your Videos. So calming and empowering starting own projects at the same time!🌿🔨
Congrats on making such a great table / coffee corner! And what a dream kitchen!! So pretty and functional, you are giving me so many ideas to dream of
I'm really impressed by the variety of tools you guys have, despite being renters. I'm also happy to see how you keep all the tools nice and clean, and well organized too.
You are truly a talented designer and creator. Thank you for sharing!! The spaces you create are inspiring 😊
We moved to our new house last year and this video remind me about that time 😉 Your kitchen is so cozy and full of light! Love it ❤
Every episode always an eye opener!
I really love this !! Cozy 😌
Beautiful space, I love your styling. Hope you create wonderful memories there ❤️
Simple, beautiful and cozy as always 🥰
Nicely done!
It looks really good and functional. Really like the island and coffee station.
Power sia your DIY skills. In SG, you can hardly have this kind of opportunity especially if you stay in HDB. Good job!
rentals in germany are crazy. You have to pay rent AND buy all of the necessary furniture for the flat. What you pay for are basically just the bare walls, the floor and the ceiling.
Ja und? Besser als mit Sachen wohnen die man Scheiße findet. Wenn man möbliert mietet hat jemand das vielleicht mit den günstigsten Dingen eingerichtet und der Mieter zahlt es ab...
Beautiful in it's simplicity!
Gorgeous makeover!
Love pieces of art in a kitchen
you continue to astonish me with your creative ideas. i love your motivation and determination to make your space so beautiful, you are awesome!!!
