- Today we are doing a satisfying sheetrock dust clean up!! Can we start painting yet??! I am using the shopvac to vacuum up all the dust so we can get ready to paint.
Today is an exciting day for the exterior of my fixer upper house!! Jay & I are installing my new DREO porch ceiling fan and it looks amazing! After that, my mom and I are working on cleaning up the pile of stones and building a stone wall!
Hey there! My name is Abby and I recently bought a MAJOR fixer upper house. I am SO excited to work on fixing it up this old house and turning it into my dream home. I can't wait to take you on this journey with me! I am planning to DIY as much as I can and learn so much about home renovations along the way. I am starting out totally clueless so I am sure it will be a grand adventure! Follow along on my channel if you want to see DIY projects, renovating a house on a budget, and I am sure a lot of craziness along the way! I'm just a girl with a drill and a dream.

Hey Abby, the filter gets clogged really easily with sheet rock fine dust which stops the flow. Using a bag in the vacuume really helps but you still need to clean the filter a lot! So proud of all you have done!
LOL. I was kind of yelling, "Did you check the filter?" That dust can clog it up very quickly.
Please save yourself time and energy, use a spryer to paint all that space. You would have to paint some things by hand but using a spryer would make your life so much easier. You have done such a great job! Congratulations 🎉.
A nephew who does sheetrock told me to add a hose to the exhaust port on the shop vac and stick it out the window so any dust that gets past the filter goes out the window and not back into your house. Just a hint from someone who works with that all the time
Wow, that is interesting! Thank you.
Jay has been a big part of your renovation but you, my dear, are the driving force. You have accomplished so much so far. Thanks for sharing Abby....
Oh my 😢 Your comment is so true and I am sure Jay would agree. Well said 🙏💕
Once you are all done, have a hidden area like the closet, signing everyone's names that has worked on the house, dated and shellac. That is what we did to some of our previous homes, we signed and dated, covered up with wall paper or inside of a closet. Memories and it would answer who were the people before us that renovated the home. Great job, Abby and Jay!
Abby, your work ethic is great. It really shows how you were raised! So many people your age today don't have half the ambition that you have!
Cleaning up the drywall dust is a real chore. One of the worst jobs we had to do while building our house. I kept damp mopping ours before we painted. You and Jay have done a wonderful job!
The doors are beautiful! No you didn’t tell us about the doors but now we know. Great choice!
LOL those are Mid Century Modern doors, what a you talking about? . So far the doors she installed are Second Empire and the bay window is as well.
Sheet rock dust is horrible. It will clog up the best of vacuum cleaners! Constant cleaning of the filter!!!
I was thinking that same thing 😊
@@susanbozard7906I was just about to say the same thing. 🤣
Yes CLEAN the filter, you can also put a second filter over the standard filter specifically for fine dust.
You are making excellent progress, Abby!!! 🥰🎶❤️🎶🌻🎶🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🏡
Shop vacs are very handy. Good for both wet and dry uses, just make sure to have separate filters for each wet and dry vacuuming. Also while sucking up drywall dust you should clean the filter often to prevent it from clogging, ask me how I know lol. Your interior doors are going to be stunning! So exciting for you that things are getting to the "pretty stage" soon.
Yes, those drywall dust days seem never ending but be encouraged, they do 😌 Kerry going little sister♥️
Oooh!! Your new shop vac is doing a good job!! So satisfying!! It looks different with the dark floors!! Lol!! It's ok, Abby!! No, I don't remember about the doors...but I might have forgotten, too!! Lol!! So excited for next video!! 💕👏👏👏
Suggestion: the door into the bathroom beside the door outside - make these the same wood, or visually it will bug you if they are not the same. Oh and sheet rock? Vacuum, then vacuum, then vacuum and then vacuum. My parents swear buy mopping between vacuuming using one of the old school thread mops that you squeeze in a bucket like janitors used to use. Apparently it helps get more of the dust up in between each vacuum. And yes you will need to empty the bag/ vac a lot.
I love your choice for interior doors. They will be beautiful. Your little house renovation is coming right along.
Don’t forget to wipe walls down before painting and filter probably just needs cleaned on Jim’s vacuum. Dry wall dust gets everywhere
Just my 2 cents... it will look nicer if your doors match , especially next to the exterior door. Or... maybe painted white...
Hey Abby! You did not already tell us about the interior doors, so yay, can’t wait to see them, I love the design! Drywall dust is horrid, but it’s so exciting to be at this stage of the journey!
Good job cleaning up, can't wait to see the painting getting done. Enjoy the video's, thanks.
clean the filter it will clag up very quick with drywall dust
Amazing young woman wonderful family and supportive friends all very amazing people. Love❤
I use to clean professionally and the places that had a central vac system were the best. Since you are building would be the best time!
Looking great Abbey 😊
The doors are beautiful! I'm sure they will be wonderful quality. I hope when you pick out the new floors they will match the original ones you are keeping. Especially since they will connect between spaces.
So exciting to watch the progress on your lovely home
Abby it's ok... don't worry things will come together sooner than you think. So proud of all you have accomplished ❤
Good job Abby
I love the design of the new doors and the color choice!! You go young lady 🙏💞
The doors look like they will be beautiful
Abby i don't remember you telling us the color of the doors. Thank you for showing them as that looks beautifully. Having Jay help you so much is so wonderful. I know you learned alot from him. God bless you and keep you all safe who helps you on your house. Can't wait for Tuesday to see what is next.
change the filter in the shop vac! Looking Good!
I thought you had the former doors to use and restore but the maple sounds gorgeous. I have maple cabinets and they are lovely and warm
You should probably replace the filter in your father's shop account, I'm sure it's plugged solid, and that's why it doesn't work well. You could burn out the motor otherwise.
Love the style of your interior doors!! Price sounds very good for custom doors!
Abbey, did you clean the filter on your Dad's shop vac?? You need a shopvac anyway, but clean the filter often! So proud of you and your progress!
Good job, Miss Abby!
I would sand the floors before you paint. I think if you have the sander there, I'd try to sand the kitchen, dining area first, before ruling out and going with new.
I agree, floors before paint. Keep up the good work, Abby
Abby it is looking beautiful. Great job.
I had maple floors in my first house and absolutely loved them!
As the farmers would say. You are down to the short rows. 😊
Looking good, girl ❤❤
Those doors will be beautiful!! But not red oak, I agree!!
❤😊looking good 😊
I don't think you've mentioned the details on the inside doors. I don't miss an episode. 😂 I love seeing the progress. But,,, I'm glad you're almost ready for primer.
It’s getting exciting!❤️
love this
If you have cracks in between the boards in your floors, I'd highly recommend filling them with wood filler. Just did my bedroom floor. It's a huge difference. Just fyi
Wow! That's a crazy amount of sheetrock dust!
Love the doors and sounds like a Great price, you really must get them from him(if at all possiable) or you will regret it.
Yeah, cleaning up sheetrock dust is a nightmare!!! Good job, Abby God Bless A Drill & A Dream
Hey Abby, i can't believe how much work you and Jay got done over the winter!! It looks so good! Wondering what your plans are for the siding on the house. ...is that planned for this summer? Have you chosen a color yet?
It will be so rewarding to get all the sheetrock dust cleaned up.
Abby how are you getting the dust out of the radiators?
I would want my floors to match continuous in the whole house 🤔 of couse not in kitchen, bathrooms and utility, tile in those rooms.
Hey, no texting while vacuuming lol. House is really taking shape, can’t wait for some paint action.
The maple sounds wonderful! Can't wait to see those too. A ways off. The Amish are great carpenters for sure. I am so excited to see the finished product. I have been here from day one and look forward to each notification each day. What did you decide for all the floors upstairs? I'm sure you mentioned it but forgot I guess. You and Jay are a great team, Abby!
Stair and wall hand rails please!!
What about the flooring in the house what are they going to be or are you replacing it
Good Morning ABBY
Eerste groetjes Jan 👍🇧🇪
❤❤❤
Use a spatula to scrape the chunks of mud off.
🌟You are one AWESOME PERSON! >✨ABBY✨
You will need to sand down the wave in the floors because it will distort any flooring you put over it.
Does your Hoover end have a brush on it, as if it had it may have been easier
That was a good work-out, Abby. You will not need to go to the Gym for a few weeks 😁
Will your inside doors match your side and front doors?
What was the color you settled on for your walls ? Was it chantilly lace who makes it?
❤❤❤👍👍👍
Oh my word…that is so inexpensive for a door!!! Handmade at that!!
You don't think the doors should be the same through the house for continuity? Dark oak near a light maple? And so much maple, floors doors cabinets? I think you need to bring in more of the oak color you started with.
Have dark stained front door next to white interior door. Looks fine
@@jburch1544 Now you are talking painted. That takes away the "wood" aspect.
Interior doors stand apart from exterior main doors.
@@jburch1544 yes they do if painted
Ms. Abby, I know where you got your great work ethic from. It got to be your mother.
How do you paint without texture or a skim coat on the walls? Looking amazing, btw...
Not going to be a level 5 finish it no skim coat, ceilings especially difficult, sand paint texture on ceilings help to get good finish/look better
those look like wide steps in the stairs
Are you going to texture the walls?
Channel will soon need a name change...A Drill and a Dream Come True
Just clean out the shop vac filter or just replace it.
You got great wood flooring....just need some sanding....and stain/coat of polyurethane.. Why spend alot of money you dont need to for a "new" flooring which
is going to be alot more expensive than you think. Sanding will smooth down some of the waviness....but the house is old, that is how old floors are....dont
try and hide it....accept the uniqueness that comes with it and what people had to deal with when building in the past. Dont waste money needlessly.
If YOU are going to sand the floors I would do that before painting.
A guess people in America paint straight over sheetrock/plasterboard and dont plaster it first like we do in the UK
Not plaster, but a skim coat of mud is applied over the final finished drywall. This is known as a level 5 (highest and smoothest) finish, not sure this is being done here.
Amen i pray Psalms 91 Isaiah 54 17 over you and your family and friends and home. I also been praying asking my abba God to send in His reenforcement angels to help those road workers repairs so your road is
The metal that you’re paying them to take away . You could take to the metal recyclers and get money for your pocket.
My back hurts after all that vacuuming! Sheesh 🙄
Filters don't last long. They get clogged up with cat hair.
Hello from the rocky mid-coast of Maine, US. Saturday, April 27th, 2024.
Scrap metal = cash $$
Plastic drop cloth off the room that's not finished or you'll have to start over.
Drives me crazy that you always say Sheetrock it does not appear by the end tapes that you used copy righted U.S. Gypsum Sheetrock..your using drywall.
Girl, you need to wear goggles! That photo of you your eyelashes were covered in dust. Not good for your eyes!!
Abby your just one person, your hard work will pay off one of these day. You'll be sitting on your porch one of these in awe of how much you accomplished and still thanking God for Jay's invaluable help.
❤❤❤
Sheet rock dust is fine like flour. Gets everywhere. You are very blessed to be doing sheetrock in a house no one is living in. When you live in a renno, the sheet rock dust really finds places to hide. Great progress.
You have come a
Long way Abby.
Been Watching
Since day one.
Painting an priming will be
A wonderful thing.😊
Why maple? I love the oak and would likely be easier to tie in with the existing doors and future floors.
Abby Suggestion .Rent an industrial floor sander and do your upstairs floors first . Apply 3 coats of urethane .Jay will know how to operate that machine . 😊😊😊
Abby sounds like you need to replace the filter and run something down the hose .
The interior doors sound beautiful, great choice.
Reverse blow out your 'shop vac' filter every so often. (That way more dust is removed with each cleaning)!
Very satisfying to watch the floors get vacuumed 😊
Missed a spot! Just kidding. You're such a hard worker. Will the floor grills have to stay? I think I'd replace all flooring downstairs just of cohesive look.
Leave floor dry, tap big clumps with hammer. They will bust up small enough to vacuum.
Have you checked the filter on the vac that won't suck? Guess what happens when it gets clogged? I have two of those orange vacs and they work well.
