Wawaw Izzy, what a great job you did 🤩- you and Tom are really amazing guys, always looking forward to your videos 👍👍 By the way, last week we have been visiting Cornwall with our Campervan (St. Michael's Mount, Porthleven, Tintagel coast path, Boscastle, Saint-Yves,...) -> it is really an amazing beautiful piece of England you guys are living 😍🤩🤩
Ah... Me personally I've watched your videos. From somewhere near the beginning. A charming couple, who are interesting apart, but better together. I doubt I would have tuned in if this was your first video.
I enjoyed this video so much! All your hard work really paid off and I'm very impressed with your mega bargains. I think I will have to find a car boot sale now. Look forward to seeing any more projects you might do. I'd like to see you guys test run tents and camping equipment out there. X
Izzy I loved this video because it brought back so many happy memories of when me and my wife moved into our first tiny home that had a backyard (!).
The terraced house had been renovated inside, but the builders had left all the old bathroom suite and a load of other junk in the backyard.
So we "borrowed" a load of pots, plants, and soil (!) from mum and dad's garden, and also tools, and paints.
We scrubbed the concrete and bricks with just water & washing up liquid.
We then painted the old bath, toilet, and sink, and then we planted the plants in them!!!
We were SO SO proud of our achievement, just like you are!!! 👏👏👏
You just discovered your tru vocation, outdoor designer 😂
Well done, great work 👏
Oh my gosh the garden turned out so boho and cuteeeee holy smokes 🥹🥹🌷🌷 absolutely love your vlogs! I’ve been binge watching them all and I’m finally almost caught up so I might go back and rewatch hehe ❤❤❤ we love going out in our van too! So we are gathering loads of inspo from your older series but I also love these homey style videos ❤❤❤🥹 heheh honestly at this point I just love your guys personality and would watch anything! 🥹🩵 you da best! Xxx
Do give us parkrun videos as well, the concept looks so fun from abroad.
I love it and the suggestions to paint the back wall. And someone said some contrasting squares. Well done
Thank you! Cheers!
Great job. Looks lovely and tranquil 🙂
Well done you! Its so daunting to start a project like that. Love it!
The back wall would look lush painted. I fancy a bright colour with one square/rectangle painted with a contrast colour! Or two! To match the chair colours.... 👀💫❤️
Brilliant. Well done 💚
Great idea!
Fantastic job, for someone that hasn't had much experience in that kind of thing you have a great eye on what works. A mural would look great on that back wall. Excellent job 👍
Love it! We have a similarly tiny concrete back yard in a very inner city area but last year filled it with soil with some flat stones as a walkway and planted loads of wildflowers that did well in the shade. It's really come to bloom this year and I love seeing the butterflies and bees (no frogs!) visiting. We hung bird feeders that didn't attract much attention at first but we now have some regular visitors who are eating us out of house and home at the rate they go through seed/fat balls!
Well done Izzy. You have transformed the space and made it very inviting. Lovely colours. Would love to see it at night with your fairy lights on. Enjoy!
You have both done more than I have ever done and I am 53. I watch your channel with awe. Keep going, I love the travelling but realise you need a base. Big hugs guys
Well done Izzy. You did so well transforming that space. Loved this video.
It looks so good, you've inspired me to sort my own little patio out. Well done for facing your fear too :)
That was mint Izzy. An excellent job! One last thing you could try to finish it off is paint that wall at the far end behind the table. Even better if any of your friends are good at painting murals 😊
Love seeing a good budget DIY! Some people make it look so easy, it’s nice to see someone (more like me 😅) go a bit out of their comfort zone and achieve such a great result 🌸
Love it when a project turns out so well! Well done! I hope you get lots of sun and get to enjoy your outdoor space.
You guys are the owner of the line : “ Enjoy what you have !! “ 🥰
Love from nepal 🇳🇵
Enjoy fully 🎉
Yes! Thank you!
I am so impressed! I love it Izzy. You cheer me up every time with your sweet happy spirit and fun. Thank you for letting us see what you have created .
Aww, thanks so much :)
Very nice! You did a great job of transforming the area into a very cozy place to hang out.
Brilliant - well done looks amazing!!!
You're brave wearing white trousers to do the garden.
I loved the finished garden,well done for completing it on your own ,you are great
That sped up footage over the audio of you explaining what you're about to do is inspired editing. 😊
You've done a great job, definitely giving bohemian vibes. Everything has come together nicely, and I love the rug and cushions. Your niece will have hours of fun with her new toy. All you need now is a long hot summer to enjoy your new outdoor space. 🙂
Haha! Thank you so much :)
Two words. Well done. Considering it seemed you were flying by the seat of your pants at the start that was a hell of an achievement! It looks brilliant!
Wow. You've transformed the space. Well done!!
Thank you! 😊
Next job - turn some pallets* in to a wendy house for your niece & you'll have somewhere to store your tat - I mean hippy-chic arte-trouveau.
If you hang that astro turf up somewhere it may stay clean enough to put down when it's dry
*featherboards are dirt cheap too.
Your videos give me comfort and kind of warmth
keep making new contents ❤
Nice one Izzy. If you paint that back wall and fence in a light colour that will make it seem so much bigger, and brighter. 👍
Looks great, well done x
Wow, what a transformation. Well done 👏. It looks like it was always like that - so natural. I love the bird bath.
Lovely. Well done.
It is an amazing and cozy place to spend time in the sun and play in the rain. You did an amazing job and kinda motivating that no matter how tough a task looks before starting the result will be worth it.
Aww thanks so much :)
What a great project, and the result looks really great. I just need to replay this video every Saturday morning before I take on the housecleaning and yard work. Very impressive initiative and dedication to improving your home. Sometimes you just have to crack a whip on yourself and get it done. But you feel so accomplished after it's over, right?
What a transformation. You did really well Izzie. Now you and Tom can enjoy time in your garden.
Well done 👏 ✔ Issey, you are so creative, love your space. 😊
Wow Izzie, that look so amazing. I really love the secluded, cozy quality it exudes. Give yourself a big pat on the back 👍
This was a fun video...love what you get up to at home...just as much fun as travel...well done on your new outdoor space..
Hi Izzy, I had the same dilemma with storing stuff outside. I bought a Keter storage box for outside. It just pops together. You get them in Argos and Home arginine depending on the size you require. Great back yard now 👍 👌
Great idea!! Thanks :)
That is beautiful, it looks amazing, well done you your hard work really paid off, wishing you many happy hours in that garden 🤩
Thanks very much :)
What a great job you have done with the few resources you had.
And a lot of hard work, keep up the vids.xx
1 suggestion, you could put an awning up over the seating area so as you can enjoy sitting out there in the rain! enjoy the space you have created.
Or like a gazebo that would defo be a vibe.
Good tip!
A fantastic job! We need to see the night-time look with the lights!
The possibilities are endless. What a great outdoor space, I hope your landlord will appreciate the improvement you have made to the area overall. Maybe an outdoor storage box would be helpful to place all your cushions etc if you don't have much space indoors. If you get a chance I would give the patio a good go with a power wash just to get rid of any extra black bits than can be slippy if wet. And as for frogs, frogs are good 🐸. This area will enhance your lives so much, enjoy! 🌼🦩🐸🧹☀🪴
Looks amazing! Well done. And now you get to enjoy it. Hope you get many sunny days to spend there!
This was a very nice transformation. Great job! It looks amazing. ❤
Awesome result brilliant Izzy looks fabulous well done
Fantastic transformation well done 👏 X
Big thanks
Wow I have to admit I really didn't think you were going to achieve this transformation, but I was wrong. It looks so great! Well done Iz!
Thank you so much!! :)
Loved this one, get some white paint on that end wall, it will lift it up even more. A brilliant job.
Great job! If you have a bit of extra money I would buy concrete floor (non-slip) paint you will certainly brighten up a shaded patio garden!
Great job on low budget Tom. Should be proud
Great video to watch good luck you guys
well done for getting over the fear! It looks lovely.
Great job! You're a gardener now.
Top job Izzy, compared to what you started with ! 10/10 for effort 👍
Thanks! 😄
Izzy! Such a fantastic job - thank you for sharing the transformation. I know that you have mentioned that you get anxiety at times and also there's the Frog phobia. Given all of that, I am very impressed with how positive you are about tasks - even the so-called 'mundane' ones, such as scrubbing away algae and clearing the vegetation. It's a lesson for us all, with the hard prep work that is required for any job. Instead of complaining, you appreciated the smells and textures around you. That is what I call working mindfully. Any time I get impatient or frustrated from now on, I'll try and think 'how would Izzy approach this?' :)
Much love to you and Tom - thank you both for the content you share with us.
Beautiful transformation of the garden, love it enjoy it 😘😍
My wife has the exact same fear of frogs as you do! Well done for persevering! Garden looks amazing!!
Haha, oh dear !
If you are allowed to get that fence & back wall painted it will make such a difference 👍
Love it! Your enthusiasm is downright infectious and so nice to see 😁
You and Tom are amazing people. Love your channel ❤
Great episode, it’s incredibly rewarding to transform a space and enjoy it afterwards. Your place looks nice! Now time for some bbqs 😁
Definitely! Thanks so much
Use old pots and pans with holes drilled in bottom for plant pots. Old buckets with holes in bottom for containers. Colanders as hanging baskets. Garden centres sell the chains or you can use old rope or paracord. £120? Tom is never letting you go shopping alone ever again lol. ps There is no frog or toads until you see it in the bushes, so just remember it will eat slugs and things! And people never try anything until they get it into their mind to just do something and get on with it like you did. You have already seen how light and airy the plot is now.
now that you have created this haven of peace it would be interesting to install an aviary with some tropical birds such as conures for their beauty and their colors with the melodious song of these wonderful pets❤
Well done the garden looks amazing xx
Well done. It looks brilliant!
Well done Iz! The mark of a true professional gardener is to wear the whitest pants while doing it!
What a lovely transformation once the trees are cut back you will have so much light flooding in to cover the old fencing buy some bamboo screening it comes on a roll and is easy to fix with some horse shoe tacks 😊
So true! Great idea, thanks :)
Wonderful Isobel. That was so inspiring, I have been in my garden all day, and it looks much better as a result. So thank you very much. Best wishes to you both.
You are so welcome! Thanks :) :)
Thanks so much Izzy
I cant stop smileing
What a fantastic job
And a brilliant video
Xxxxx
Thank you, thank you! Glad you liked it
Good work........looked much better in the end. Be proud of that.
Haha! Thank you :)
You've inspired me to only wear white when doing my yard work in future 😅😅
Hay well done , I will definitely vote for you as best garden designer 🙂 , I thought you are just a natural beauty woman ,, but hay you proved that you are a full of life ,, and I really like your hippy Bahamian happy side ,,,, and and I would like to ask you to do some bargain shopping for me 🙂
Fab Izzy well bloody done 🐸
Thank you!
Great job Izzy! The garden looks great! Thanks for sharing.
A lovely transformation, enjoy your outside space 🌷🌺🏵️☀️
An excellent job miss and all without Monty Don,s help a great video miss Tom is a lucky lad 👍🏻🇮🇪☘️
Looks amazing 😍
Thanks so much!
Fantstic job, you've inspired me to do something with my backyard.
If I was Tom I would keep you on a lead so nobody could steal you! Thanks for all the enjoyment watching your adventures over the last few years.
Amazing job and amazing video! Maybe you could buy some sort of chest to put outside for putting the non-water resistent stuff in so you don't have to take everyting inside every time.
Looks good Izzy
This was AMAZING what a transformation🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 loved the car boot too!
Great job Izzy 👍well done Tom will love it.John Falmouth 😁

I love this episode!!! I love travel content but I also love my gardening too, how about incorporating some planters where u can grow some veg????
Izzy I love it thank you for sharing 😊
Brilliant, well done Izzie.😊
Iz, you did amazing. I can relate to your fear of frogs, but mine is with wasps and spiders. That garden should have been sorted for you, but you cleansed the space and energy with your positive intention and it's a lovely outdoor space now. 🥰💚🤗
It's absolutely beautiful Izzy, fair play to you.
Izzy your garden looks amazing , really great result from your hard work. What a lovely , enthusiastic person you are . If you were my daughter , I would be beaming with pride 🙏🏻😊.
Thanks so much :)
That transformation is totally a.azing and I think you should be so happy with yourself ❤👏👏👏 love everything about your little garden ENJOY GUYS 🩷💙
Great transformation! Well done!
Thank you so much!
Great work Izzy, and I loved seeing how happy it made you. New career?
Frogs? I'm ok with them. I have a garden ornament frog that is quite cute. Had him for years. However, snakes are what really freak me out!
Patio looks lovely. I especially like the bird bath. And the nice little pink car! Great work Izzie.
Well done, you did brilliant job 👏👏👏👏👏
Complete transformation!
Well done Izzy you should paint that back wall and the concrete you can get concrete paint It will make a big difference. I enjoy your videos did your solar lights work? Would like to see how it looks lit up.
Absolutely brilliant !! Paint the far wall one of your bright colours?
great transformation 💯
