Of course it is EXACTLY like your dream picture. Jay and you made it. That man will do whatever it takes to make things just the way you dream of!!! Jay you are an exceptional role model for men!!!
I laughed out loud when Gomer went under Jay while he was down on the floor leveling the last stair step. Jay acted like it was normal for Gomer to go underneath🤓🤓 him.
The first order of business after you move in is to have Jay over for a great dinner! He has been with you through thick, and thin! The house is amazing! Fantastic job guys!😊the stair are gorgeous!
I've followed along since you first entered the old house and started clearing it out. I feel like I've been a part of the process. Thanks for allowing us to follow your journey.
I love the fact that you just didn’ MAKE DO. if something didn’t look right or fit right you found something that was the best. To many times in my life I allowed the opinions of others to have the upper hand then regretting that I didn’t stick to my ideas. So proud of you.
All the wood used, even if it has parts and color imperfections, this makes it special and very unique , what a very lovely home build with hard work and a lot of love and with very special loving people.❤
Looking @ the house now and remembering how it was when you stared is mind blowing! ! What a transformation in less than 3 yrs! It’s your dream n beautiful!
A family I follow that live in Alabama built a new house. They contracted a man to custom build their chair railing. Well they got scammed. Took him to small claims court. They ended up building their own railings. 😊
Right in the middle of watching this..I flashbacked to the upstairs dormer being built and looking over the back yard....then there was that big hole that was dug with the concrete being poured into those 'things' .....my my my ....what a job this has been...IT IS BEAUTIFUL.EVERY SQUARE INCH HAS BEEN TOUCHED . Lov from South Alabama.
The surprise that Jays drill stop working and it was your drill you guys used to finish your last big dream project, it felt like destiny . It really has come full circle
The two male influences in your life (Dad & Jay) any future mates have big shoes to fill! I love Jay's confidence " We can do it!" He Is a rock! Anytime my husband is trying to do things like this we can't be in the same room! Hahaha Loved kitty Clive trying to go through the door! This was a funny one them watching you two!
Retired finish carpenter with 100’s of stair and rail installs. Watching you two build railing makes me appreciate the many things I have learnt on how to install. Good job for the work!
The railing looks fantastic! Can't wait to see what are you going to use for a railing for the upper half of the staircase! Maybe a full length rail on the opposite wall?
You and Jay are such a good working team. The stairs are a dream come true for you! Your baby cats are adorable! You’ll love living there, what a wonderful Christmas gift 🎁
Jay is amazing and you have come so far. When he said he was going to countersink the bolts, you knew exactly what he was talking about. Then there is the wood. The stairs are absolutely gorgeous! You are a lucky girl to have a dad with a sawmill.
The stair railing looks so amazing even though you have a bit more to go it will look fantastic. Abby without Jay I don't know where your house would be. You have learned so much from him Abby. God sent Jay to help you with your home 🏡 🙏 Abby. God bless the both of you, Abby and Jay. Stay safe and be careful out in the streets if you get snow ❄️ 🙏 ❤❤
The rail looks absolutely gorgeous; HOWEVER, the last big, EXITING project, will be the: the interior decoration, the porch, the back deck, the basement, (which could be your game room/tv room/office area), next, the barn, the garage & the landscaping 😂😂😂 We still have a lot more “Drill & Dream”, projects to look forward to…❤🙏🏽❤️✅🎉🥰 I love this channel sooooo much, I’m not done watching you & Jay… keep improving your homestead .
It was fun to just watch you & Jay work on the railing! And, it's SO beautiful!! Just so classy! I love it!! Just can't wait for the next video!! It's so exciting!!! 😍🎉
Jay is an amazing carpenter! Ya'll have done a fabulous job on remodeling your house. I've watched from the beginning and I can't get over the difference that has been made. Can't wait to see the finished product.
Jay is a true blessing ! I really think he’s enjoyed himself doing all of this work ! It’s a blessing to be needed at an older age ( I’m 65 ) and not needed any more and it makes me sad ! Merry Christmas to all of you ❤🙏🏻🎄
God bless Jay! His talents are amazing. Seriously, is there anything he can’t do? I hope you are paying him his worth. I’m going to miss him when this is over.
The stair balustrade looks really good. A lot more complicated than you would think placing them properly etc. but as usual Jay came through amazingly.. love it!❤
I am speechless and my grandchildren will testify that it doesn’t happen very often 😂 OMG I am overwhelmed with love and joy!!! Everything is GORGEOUS! 💞
Love those stairs this is my favorite video project ever . Love every minute, please keep them coming Abby , we all feel like family now and your dream has our Hearts. Love to you, Jay ,and family. and all the people who had a hand in this fantastic dream . Yeah ! it is so close now . 💥💜💫💙❤💚
Jay is not a carpenter he is a CRAFTSMAN. He should start a school teaching the skills he has developed over his lifetime. As a woodworker all my lifetime and the son of a craftsman and with a son who is developing in to a craftsman I certainly appreciate Jays workmanship and his ability to instruct you.
Wow! It looks just like you envisioned it! Beautiful! What a puzzle to put together! Great workmanship! Jay is a miracle worker! I’m sure the kitties quality inspections were up to code!😂😂
Fun video Abby. My railing is 42" from the tread to the top of the rail but any fall from the higher part of mine would be significantly more than yours might be. Your banister and balusters are wonderful! From one carpenter to another named Jay I applaud your calmness and efforts in teaching Abby so much about process over rushing to the finish on every project. I rarely have customers who appreciate my speed which similar to yours. Abby, your kittens are stealing many scenes. It is so fun to watch their curiosity!
Hello!! Its amazing to me how excited I am about a house I don’t get to live in! 😂 Since that first video of the walkthrough till now, it’s absolutely mind boggling how far your sweet little house has come! Love love love it all! Oh…and Gomer was cracking me up…just wanting to help! 😅
Your house is just stunning and love the stair railing. The hard work is almost over and now you can enjoy decorating. It’s been a great journey that has flown by.
Look at the pictures from the last 2 Christmas' at the house and notice the transformation especially in just the last year. Mind blowing! 😅 Good job! Woo-hoo!
Been watching since the first three videos were up. It is just me, but this banister job seemed like the most difficult job y'all had to do out of all that has been done in the whole renovation! I was feeling overwhelmed for you both. Great job, it looks so fantastic!
First of all; my little dog would’ve gone running at the sound of Jay’s drill. Gomer was like,” do you need my help?” 😂 The baluster is truly a work of art. Do you know when your counter tops will be in? I love hearing the excitement in your voice with every last detail being completed!
I know the railing will be amazing, but I'm obsessed with Clyde and Gomer chonky monkeys! So adorable! Gomer looks just like my bestie's meezer Angel and Clyde is such a distinguished Tuxedo like her baby George who crossed the Rainbow Bridge a few years ago. They will bring you much joy!
Jay is the calmest - most laid back person! I know he has been a joy to work with. His demeanor is a sermon without words.
Jay is absolutely wonderful 😊
So happy for you. Looking so nice! Jay is such a blessing! Your family as well.
I think we all here Love Jay. What a guy!
Of course it is EXACTLY like your dream picture. Jay and you made it. That man will do whatever it takes to make things just the way you dream of!!! Jay you are an exceptional role model for men!!!
And women😊
I laughed out loud when Gomer went under Jay while he was down on the floor leveling the last stair step. Jay acted like it was normal for Gomer to go underneath🤓🤓 him.
I laughed too! I would not like those cats all over the place--especially on the counters. Glad they live with her.
Cats and some dogs are natural construction site inspectors. I am a cat person who always enjoys cat inspectors on my projects.
Everyone needs a "Jay" in their lives, a gift from God.
Jay is the best teacher to teach you Jay does beautiful work
Is Jay a relative ?
Jay’s skill is amazing! There is nothing he can’t do. 😊❤🐾🐾❤️❤️🎄
I love when Jay said it’s not going to be easy, but we can do it. I had to chuckle because I put in exact same ones and it was NOT fun😊
The first order of business after you move in is to have Jay over for a great dinner! He has been with you through thick, and thin! The house is amazing! Fantastic job guys!😊the stair are gorgeous!
And make a plaque of appreciation to Jay.
If you're putting king or queen mattresses up stairs. It will be a task to get them around the corner and headed up the stairs.
I've followed along since you first entered the old house and started clearing it out. I feel like I've been a part of the process. Thanks for allowing us to follow your journey.
Jay is your miracle maker 😆
Jay has a little helper today...love it.
That looks so much better than the before look! What a change! Jay is a jewel! Such adorable kittens and they are funny and have no fear of Jay.
I love the fact that you just didn’ MAKE DO. if something didn’t look right or fit right you found something that was the best. To many times in my life I allowed the opinions of others to have the upper hand then regretting that I didn’t stick to my ideas. So proud of you.

Looking @ the house now and remembering how it was when you stared is mind blowing! ! What a transformation in less than 3 yrs! It’s your dream n beautiful!
Exactly.
Never could I imagine this property has become quite a real-estate "gem".
Abby,you and Jay should be flipping property 😊
A family I follow that live in Alabama built a new house.
They contracted a man to custom build their chair railing.
Well they got scammed.
Took him to small claims court.
They ended up building their own railings. 😊
Right in the middle of watching this..I flashbacked to the upstairs dormer being built and looking over the back yard....then there was that big hole that was dug with the concrete being poured into those 'things' .....my my my ....what a job this has been...IT IS BEAUTIFUL.EVERY SQUARE INCH HAS BEEN TOUCHED . Lov from South Alabama.
I think Gomer loves Jay!
The surprise that Jays drill stop working and it was your drill you guys used to finish your last big dream project, it felt like destiny . It really has come full circle
What can't Jay do ? What a craftsman.
The two male influences in your life (Dad & Jay) any future mates have big shoes to fill! I love Jay's confidence " We can do it!" He Is a rock! Anytime my husband is trying to do things like this we can't be in the same room! Hahaha
Loved kitty Clive trying to go through the door! This was a funny one them watching you two!
Who's the mystery guy exiting the basement twice, and leaving by the back door?
❤ your videos!
Blessings to all...❤
Stair railing looks fantastic! With Jay there, nothing is impossible!
Sharon here... Fantastic! You and Jay worked your magic. Looking forward to seeing it stained and varnished and the added touches to the post! 👍❤😊

Jay is not a carpenter he is a CRAFTSMAN. He should start a school teaching the skills he has developed over his lifetime. As a woodworker all my lifetime and the son of a craftsman and with a son who is developing in to a craftsman I certainly appreciate Jays workmanship and his ability to instruct you.
Wow! It looks just like you envisioned it! Beautiful! What a puzzle to put together! Great workmanship! Jay is a miracle worker! I’m sure the kitties quality inspections were up to code!😂😂
Jay is a master craftman. You are so lucky to work with a man with such talent. You Abbie have great taste to compliment his work.
Fun video Abby. My railing is 42" from the tread to the top of the rail but any fall from the higher part of mine would be significantly more than yours might be. Your banister and balusters are wonderful!
From one carpenter to another named Jay I applaud your calmness and efforts in teaching Abby so much about process over rushing to the finish on every project. I rarely have customers who appreciate my speed which similar to yours.
Abby, your kittens are stealing many scenes. It is so fun to watch their curiosity!
Hello!! Its amazing to me how excited I am about a house I don’t get to live in! 😂 Since that first video of the walkthrough till now, it’s absolutely mind boggling how far your sweet little house has come! Love love love it all! Oh…and Gomer was cracking me up…just wanting to help! 😅
Jay, you have some serious skills. Stairs look perfect!
Very cool, you will appreciate having incorporated that natural wood railing from your Dad for many years to come.
Beautiful work!! I agree Abby It is gorgeous!!! I’m so happy for you! 😇🩷🎅🏽🎄☃️🐾
Beautiful! I’ve been watching since the beginning. So exciting to see it so close to finished!
Your house is just stunning and love the stair railing. The hard work is almost over and now you can enjoy decorating. It’s been a great journey that has flown by.
❤Awesome!!!
That’s a great staircase you did it and I thought that will be very hard. You guys nailed it and it looks great.❤
As usual your cats are right there "helping" lol! Merry Christmas!
You and Jay are an awsome team! Those stair rails are just perfect .
Look at the pictures from the last 2 Christmas' at the house and notice the transformation especially in just the last year. Mind blowing! 😅 Good job! Woo-hoo!
Love the railing 💚❤️🤗
Stair case looks amazing I like that it's wood and the metal rods looks really good good job today and Abby
Abby, I love your excitement ❤
Again Jay reminds me of my grandfather. I never got to work on a project this big but we might have worked on at least 30 week long projects together.
Stair railing looks great. Jay does very nice work. Great video!👍🏻
Beautiful stairs and rails good job Jay and Abby with the assistance of Gomer.
You are quite the visionary for this house ! What a gift you have 😊
I love the stair rails, suits the house so well!!
