This is my favorite project ever that I had almost no hand in. 10/10, would cheerlead from the sidelines again. That said, now that it's up, it is time for these hands to get to WORK 🙌
I did download Royal Match and I love it lol. All the things I like about a quick match game, none of the things I hate.
I already have Royal Match. What is your team? Let's play!
I love Royal Match! I've played quite a few of these match-3 games and this one is the best to date! Really nice graphics, fun music, great mix of levels. Just a few minutes you say? I can play for hours!
I apologise for the negative comment on Royal Match. If I had any way to tell the company that makes the game, or the ads how annoying the ads are I would not be commenting here. I get ads from Royal Match urging me to download it like 4 or 5 times a day, and the scenarios seem quite violent to me. Also, if they they have no ads, then they must be making their money with in game purchases. I live on a fixed income and the budget is extremely tight. I just have a very low tolerance for games where I'm supposed to rescue someone.
@@renaebettenhausen3611 they make their money through micro transactions. You aren't rescuing the king every level, you get stars for completing levels, that you use to decorate the castle. It's fun and it's nice not having to worry about ads. I have Royal match on my phone and it's nice to play while baby is asleep on my lap.
Mr. Donner modeling the stones 10/10 🤣🤣
He is beauty, he is grace, he models stones by the fireplace
@@MorganDonner He's your Mr. Villa and Vanna White, all in one.
And he's very handsome too. (Don't worry, I'm very happy with mine, thanks!) Tell Mr. Morgan Donner that we say "hi!"
Right!! Absolutely majestic
He was absolutely adorable. lol
my dear morgan, maybe the vibe you're looking for is "time traveling core" so you can mix and match all the styles your heart desires
I love it!
you, mind reader, you!

I live in a home with vacation home in the woods vibes, filled with family antiques and collected vintage furniture a lovely eclectic mix, with loads of rich color. I have e been here since 2014 and still get a thrill every morning when I wake up. Have fun, love everything you put in your cottage in the woods. 🤗💙💚💛💜💟👍
Currently accepting bets on who finishes their cottage/barn decor first: Rachel Maksy or Morgan
Rachel's going to win by a mile, she's so fast! I can't wait to see how hers turns out!
My two faves! How can I choose one to bet against?? The only way this could be more anxiety inducing is if Bernadette Banner joined the fray 😂
What is "finished"? Both of them will keep tweaking and improving as they use the space and get inspired by all the things :)
Rachel has a pretty good headstart.
I propose that Rachel and Morgan each make something for the other’s barn space. Would be a fun collaboration!
Classic husband move; “Why buy it when I can make it?” It came out beautifully! I love the stove.
I mean, isn't that why some of us got into crafting in the first place? I know I did!
I haven't found a guy worth a darn, so I have to build them myself. 💪😣
*"I CAN BUILD THAT"* the number of times I have regretted saying that...
We usually think we can get a new tool out of it - but regret it in the long run...
"If Ms. Frizzle had a sister who was into history rather than science" Oh you mean Ruth Goodman? 🧡 She's amazing and I love all the period farm series she did years ago.
I've seen one of her talks in person! Nifty lady!
@@MorganDonner 😍😍😍 oh I would love to see her talk live one day.
10/10 giving "Ruth Goodman but make it Chaotic Good" vibes.
I swear, every video of yours I watch, I think 'could Morgan get any cooler?' and then you do! every time! your editing also gets more creative with every video, i'm so impressed & inspired by your personal style, confidence and general awesomeness
Extra fun with editing is one of my favorite things about making videos!
@@MorganDonner I really liked the creative editing!
the editing and production on this video is phenomenal
No but honestly! Like, I've been watching her for years and years, and she just keeps getting cooler. Like.. how lady?? How?
As a history student, it makes me so happy to see colorful, vibrant, and extremely unique representations of the past. Our history isn't actually beige. It is technicolor! Incredibly thrilled to see the inspiration photos, cannot wait to see how your beautiful cottage turns out!
Reminds me of a book I read where the FL was thinking that nobody ever says that their favorite color is taupe...or beige.
When I was house hunting it was off white, beige, beige, gray, beige, taupe, gold, beige, taupe...wait GOLD? Guess which one I bought.
Love what you said, history isn't actually beige, it's technicolor. Agree
Anything historical could legitimately be placed into a modern house. Having 20th century as your most recent allows a medieval chest to sit comfortably next to a Victorian armchair.
A local artist and set designer, Derek Hill said, "Put together what pleases you. The consistency of your own taste will make it work." Glebe House in Donegal, Ireland, is testament to that.
I’d just finished a talk to children about how our ancestors made cloth for their clothes when one child asked ‘when did history stop being black and white?’
I love the cottage but may I just say that the editing? Chefs kiss, incredible, show-stopping, brilliant, never before-
I love how when people ask me about my architecture studies and I tell them I have to have a decent grasp on *everything* they laugh, but when they do even a small project like this suddenly they really realize how many decisions you need to keep track of.
It's like studying to be a registered dietitian... Everybody knows how to eat, so my 3,5 years studying couldn't really learn me much they didn't know beforehand..
This meta angle is really cute! Love that you've chosen to go with a mismatch of eras for the decor, it'll be like a time-traveller or immortal's cabin!
YES! Exciting, non-beige historybounding décor! I am here for it!!
That is straight up goals. When I go up I wanna be able to make my own cottage. Such a cool and whimsical project. This is what is possible when crafty people get together.
*grow up
Every time I step inside, I fall in love with it again; it makes me so happy!
I adore your embroidered blouse with the red kirtle at the end! Where is this from? Also, "if Miss Frizzle were more into history than science" is such a vibe. Your excitement is so contagious! This makes me want to get back into historical sewing. :)
I was wondering about the blouse as well! It's so beautiful!
Me too!
I wonder if she made it?
You and Mr Donner are goals! I love how practical and handy you are - seems like no project is too big for you to DIY.
This bit got cut from the video, but at one point I talked about how I'm not just excited for the physical space, but even more knowing how much fun it will be for the two of us to work on projects together.
@@MorganDonner dawwww 😍
I love Mr. Dinner showing off the stone floor for the stove. How silly. This looks amazing. Great job, you two!
🤦♂️ autocorrected to Mr. Dinner and I didn't even notice.
@@moonbasket Mr Dinner sounds like my kind of man! 👨🍳 😏🤣
"The vibe is...imagine Miss Frizzle had a sister who was more into History.'
So, the vibe is basically...me? Looking forward to those purples and florals then
Well there's definitely going to be a lot of red and blue.... Just pretend they are mixed together 😜
The vibe is the lair of a Vampire who lived since early Medieval times, traveling all over, gathering pretty things.
I love that liberating moment when you're "historical". Giving yourself the liberty to do whatever gets you excited about the place will make it that more special.
This is so exciting!! I can’t wait to see what you do with it! The description you gave of your inspiration/plan sounds so fun and lovely and cozy :D
Does Mr. Morgan Donner have a channel for his woodworking? He looks like he’d be entertaining to watch :)
Alas, he does not. Not for a lack of me trying to convince him though! He enjoys the making, but not the documenting as he goes 🤷♂
@@MorganDonner or perhaps more accurately, @ Mr Donner, sometimes even putting up a tripod with the wife's camera while you work can be enough. I've often found myself watching people at work, with nary a word, for half an hour to even a full hour here on youtube, perhaps comparable to a visual asmr. Just my thoughts, no pressure ofcourse :)
Oh boy, here I go watching your videos at work again. We will hope nobody walks in for the next 15 minutes. I am SO excited for this project!
I won't tell them if you won't.
This looks great and I’m so excited to see what you do with it 👏👏👏
Edit: AND YES TO MIX AND MATCH HISTORICAL STYLES! In art history I learned about a period around 1900s called Historicism which was a mix of many older styles ❤
Love the decision to be "historical" in your design. You can choose the best of all times! Almost like...a time traveler's cottage!
I loved this style of presentation! it made it feel super homey, and comfy to watch it with you like I was watching a TV Drama with my friends
C.O.L.O.R! Yes! I always wonder why blah seems to be the modern interpretation of the colorways people used when period sources say "au contraire". I have travelled the world (36 countries) with history as my driving inspiration. The ancient Greeks loved color. So did the ancient Egyptians. Those temples that look all sere and beautiful were polychrome, baby! So huzzah for color. Live your dreams.
I have such plans! so much color incoming! :D
I love how you and mr donner seem to just follow your bliss and craft together ❤ I hope I can find that kind of partnership one day
I have complete husband envy
Sitting here editing photos from our long-planned trip to Europe and literally looking at stained and painted glass from the York Minster Cathedral when you said "really cool, colorful, vibrant, beautiful things." Yes! So much color! Maybe a wallpaper or a mural based on an 18th century court dress?!
We want to build something like this in our backyard and this is such great inspiration!
Of course, I was thinking with all that space she could have a loom & just "whip up" some tapestries, lol ! 😆 Not only beautiful, but they insulate as well !
@@m.maclellan7147 A LOOM! That would be so cool! And a space for pewter casting, too.
I Love the Style you ended up editing this video in!! its nice "watching a video" with you 😂
I'm very excited to see how the vaguely historical barn series goes
I was just binging old videos of yours! This upload couldn't have come at a better time. I love the "watching tv" storyline. You're so creative!
I like the idea of vaguely historical as a 14th centurary house might get 15 th centuray doors, 16 th centuray wall paintings, 17 the centuary decorations and 18th centuary furniture or something like that mixed up with some fantasy.
I love how creative your videos are! I haven’t seen anyone do a sort of inception video and I thought it was a super cool idea. Morgan, you’re always killing it with the content. Love it and wishing you a happy and healthy new year! Thanks for sharing with us 🤠
Loving the cozy cottage and stove! There’s nothing like a wood burning stove and the modern ones are so much more efficient. If you’ll be using it by yourself, I highly recommend a kindling cracker, because they make chopping kindling so much easier and safer (not that I don’t love swinging an axe towards my feet but 😬). We use ours all the time (even the “manly men” agree it’s a very effective way to make small kindling).
Can we appreciate the variety of outfits we got to see in this video?? And like, her fashion evolution!?
The style is "time traveler" and I'm here for it!
I think mixing things from different time periods makes sence. For example 200 years ago they would of course also have older stuff in their homes not just from that era. Mixing styles from different classes could be more tricky. Like having a very exclusive big gold mirror next to a rough pull out sofa. Good luck! Looking forward seeing the journey!
I like the idea of having one or two older fancier pieces and then some newer/simpler rustic items. It works in a sort of treasured heirlooms, either from before your family fell on hardtimes or in particular for Morgan's cabin thing, that you brought with you from Europe when traveling to the new world. The moving to the Americas works particularly well for having light wood (say from clearing the land) furniture that is made with care but not too much in the way of fancy details.
I think this bed still works for that pourpose because if you have the rods(which would be light and therefore transportable) it's not unreasonable to use it. Especially in areas with limited long large straight wood(where I am it's not super common)
This is such a good video I'm actually floored. I have watched this channel casually for years and every time I come back I'm always like 'damn, I forgot what a banger of a youtube she is'. Congrats on another absolute slapper
Ms. Frizzle’s History sister is you Morgan! I Love your channel and your shenanigans. I look forward to seeing what you do this year!
I adore this (and YES to introducing all those rich colours from different eras, they are glorious!)
Ooooh that looks such a wonderful cottage! I can't wait to see it fully come to life!
When Morgan goes Meta, she goes hard. It's so fun when you do stuff like this and your Choose your own Adventure video. Very excited to see a colorful, historical look into Morgan's headspace.
The editing of your videos just keeps getting better and better and I am so impressed with every new one! This one is so creative that while the project presented in the video is super cool to begin with… but the editing makes a real piece of art out of documenting a different piece of art. Mindblown 🤯
Morgan!!! Your channel has grown so much over the last few years and I love seeing all the different ways your creativity comes to the surface.
This video format is so cute! This is so lovely!
Yay, thank you!
I would like you to know that your channel is one of the sole reasons I want to wear dresses and skirts more DESPITE THE FACT that Im a trans guy and they would normally make me feel super dysphoric. But you make them seem so fun and lovely to wear- I WANNA WEAR SKIRTS GODDAMNIT. YOU ALWAYS LOOK SO AWESOME IN THEM. 😤
It's coming along beautifully! Also, the vibe of hanging out with a friend watching UA-cam videos is💙💙💙💙💙💙
I think you’ve gone and built you time traveling machine, innocuously shaped like a tiny cottage. Nobody will ever suspect it’s actually a Tardis!😮😊❤
I love how you and Mr. Donner support each other’s dreams and passion projects to such an extent! #relationshipgoals
You are living the harvest moon/stardew valley fantasy 😢😍😍
A modern bimetallic stove fan will help you heat the whole space. History bounding sounds fun.
Back in the 1970s my then-husband and I built a couple of cabins. First in Wyoming, the second on the edge of the forest in rural Montana. Like many others then, we were part of the counter culture back to the land movement. Also raising goats and chickens along with our young son. Organic garden, making bread in wood fired stove, etc. I love watching your process, and doing it in a hands-on, comfortable, manageable way. Only concern I have is this: You have well-fireproofed underneath the stove, but nothing on the adjacent walls, but wood. Yikes! Looks very scary to me. Remember that heat radiates and rises. Never leave that fire alone.
It's so funny to see you describe those door latches as historic, I went "those aren't historic my parents' house has those!" .... and then I remembered my parents' house is like 600 years old lol
That older than my country has been a country!
I absolutely adored the "watch with me" vibe of this video. I actually said "aww, thank you Morgan!" out loud when you brought me a soda water. I'm traveling for work this week, which is always a pretty lonely experience, and this was just what I needed.
I'm all in favor of mix-matching your time periods. Time traveler's cottage, indeed! It's going to be so cozy when it's finished. First your sewing room, now your cottage--you're living the dream!
I like that sentiment - I’m not just 40; I’m 30; I’m 20; I’m 10; etc. I think that might be what some of us are feeling. It’s not just 2023; it’s 1923; it’s 1823; is 1523; it’s 1223…. We want to see all that we are celebrated in our spaces. That’s what I thought of when you talked about not being able to nail down a time frame.
I have trouble expressing how much I love your content! It's so thoughtful and creative and joyful and it makes me feel more of all of those things for myself. Thank you so much! ❤❤❤❤❤
You're so imaginative with your film-making and storytelling skills ! I'm amazed by the format 😍
It’s okay to mix styles. Living in the UK we have cottages from lots of different historic periods, but none of them have stayed exactly as they were built. New owners always ‘modernised’ them. Medieval cottages didn’t have glass in the windows or a chimney, or an iron stove. Tallow candles and smoke helped to create the authentic yellow-brown walls, and the floors were often just earth or stone covered in rushes or straw. You’re not making a museum piece - just have some fun.
Your actual hairstyle is fun. I guess not much women have tryied that much hairstyles. When your hair are long enough, please do a Joséphine(Bonaparte) like video : how to style it. Sure it will be a very nice look for you ;)
I love the way you use your creativity with the videos too! Loved watching this new episode, production value is over the roof! Loved loved loved it.
Hey where did you get the white shirt in the the wrap up and thank you section of your video? Or did you make it? It’s super pretty and the cabin looks amazing!!!!
You know you are doing the right thing when it makes you this HAPPY!
Morgan, what I was picturing you describing for the interior sounds like Swedish country houses with intricately-painted walls and mashed-up “history.” Would definitely suit the environment! Looking forward to seeing it unfold.
I liked the you watching the video as part of the video. I always enjoy the way you put together your videos, and am excited to see what you put out here in 2023.
The time travelers cottage.
what pattern did you use (if any) for that black dress? i just love it so much❤
So amazing. I have followed you for a couple of years, you are always full of great information. Looking forward to the series.
Does anyone know where that beautiful blouse is from that Morgan wears with the red dress? The one with the embroidered red and blue flowers?
Okay but the acting, editing and production for this video is just too good. I love the 4th wall breaks. Can't wait to see your next videos!
You could also go for a ”has been here forever” Kinda vibe and you have collected money things over the years
I have the same type of latch on a door in my house, it's on a brown barnboard door and it does mark the door but since the door is wood from a torn down barn, it's rustic and who cares about a little more wear.
Instead of a “Vaguely historical cabin” it could be a time traveler’s cabin! The time traveler has taken her favorite parts of history and brought them into her home
This looks so amazing and can’t wait until you fill it with treasures from your time travels! That stove with the glass front is so nice!!!
Mr. Donner should start his own woodworking channel. That looks like a lovely cottage and something to be very proud of.
I 100% agree! If only I could convince him 😂. He'd rather just enjoy making stuff and showing off the finished result rather than filming the process though 🤷♀️
@@MorganDonner well maybe it can start off just showing the finished product. And talk about what he did to make it. Then as he grows his audience he will be showing more of the process then just like that he has a woodworking show whit an ol timey feel and some stunning historical outfits his wife made him.
My wife watches your channel (and therefore, so do I). I would sub to his channel if he did it!
my goodness, morgan, your videos continue to amaze me! the editing in this video is just *chefs kiss*! i love your videos so so much, i love the vein you've gone down recently :) much love!
I love this ❤️❤️❤️ you guys did such a great job!
What a dream! Congratulations on your new cottage! I’ve also dreamed of making my own little back house. I also understand your struggle of picking a time period for decor, there are so many periods I love and just making it “historical” sounds perfect! ❤
We had a similar wood stove, back in the 70's, when I was younger. This brought back memories. I am awed by Mr. And Mrs. And their diy ethic. You would be great neighbors
I love how your daily style has evolved, it's so fun but so effortlessly you! Also, I am so excited about this project! Can't wait to see what you do with the place
I thought with wood burning stoves you're supposed to burn it the first time outside to prime it because chemicals and fumes from the factory...
I haven't heard of the outside advice, but we did know to do the first few burns without us around, I just got it started and then checked on it every hour for a moment till it burned to ash completely. Did that three times, slightly bigger fire each time. That seemed to be the general consensus of how to handle a new stove that I can find online.
Having the worst day at work. Goes on lunch to see new Morgan video. Day made 100% better. Thank you 💜. 10/5 amazing content!
The moment where you broke the fourth wall during the sponsorship and then talked to us like we were actually there with you watching and getting us a soda water was genius, I've seen fourth wall breaks in UA-cam videos before but never one that felt so warm and welcoming
Maybe you could go for 19th century Romani gypsy caravan/Vardo. Talk about color and whimsy and historical/olde timey! I think that look and vibe would suit you. I've seen some really beautiful examples!
"Additional fire proofing never hurts anyone"... asbestos
Lol, fair point
i cant be the only one who cant help thinks about how stinkin rich you have to be to randommly build a shed on your land with trees specially milled... or are we just not going to mention that
I was wondering about that. I wonder how much this costs. Does Morgan have a job outside UA-cam? I'm guessing her husband does some kind of construction or woodworking. I'm not trying to be nosy about their private lives, it just seems so expensive.
I love this! We did this in 2021 with a shed on our house. It became the #olivertinyhouse and is an extra living room/guest house on our acreage.
No one:
Morgan: **builds a cottage cuz why tf not**
Us: COTTAGE COTTAGE COTTAGE COTTAGE COTTAGE COTT-
edit; I LOVE how this video is filmed/designed so you're essentially watching your own video WITH US it's actually hilarious and i love it
Brilliant build but I mostly want to comment on how wild, yet authentically you, your style has developed into over the years. I love the blending of modern aesthetic (like the spiked collar, love!) with historical dress. Always a pleasure watching your videos, not just for the makes but also for the wicked good fashion styling.
The decor aesthetic is just “time” and I love that for you XD I’m in awe of this like y’all seriously built a whole heckin building! WOWOW!
So rude. I wanted a Diet Coke, and wound up with soda water! 😁
This is a lovely cabin. What a beautiful space to have.
Thanks for the fizzy water 🥤
Love the way this video was filmed, it's so fun
Your little cabin is so beautiful. I am a little partial to small spaces because I live in a "tiny house"house so I think your cabin is wonderful!
Yesss new video, immediate click :D This is so incredibly cool! Seeing the build process come together was super interesting! I'm also obsessing over that first flowy black cat dress paired with the boots - WHERE does one obtain such a garment!? (edit, I obsessed, it's BlackMilk, it's out of stock :'D ) Love how it was styled here.
It has good bones and a heart, looking forward to see it further evolve. Probably have already checked your zoning laws and real estate tax assessment rules, but be careful not to over-modernize the structure or the taxperson will pay a visit.😉
It's all official and everything, we are good 👍
@@MorganDonner ❤️
Really curious how that's all gonna turn out, but also that black dress at 0:35 is so pretty and I want one like it SO BAD 🤩🤩🤩
Oooohhh the fun noises you're going to hear as that wood drys in place. Pops and pips and snaps as the wood change shape while drying. It's one of the fun things about timber frame buildings.
Is there a donner house hold Chanel for ALL your farm crafts? Because this is everything that the world wants right now 🎉
Exciting project! Love your youthful energy and exuberance -- anything is possible! 😀💖🌟 Have fun!
Morgan Donner in 2017: "Let's sew a nice bodice~"
Morgan Donner in 2023: "Let's make a bullet proof outfit! Let's build a barn! from our own logs!!!!"
Awesome! Very cool!
The amount of work you put into your videos always astounds me! You made an entire video so you could talk over it! lol!
😂 it was a lot of fun to puzzle out and film
You and Rachel are living my dream!!!
