- We are finally putting in window trim and it absolutely transforms the look of my fixer upper house!! I hope you love it as much as I do!
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.

I don’t know where you found the gentleman that has helped lead you through this adventure but he is worth his weight in gold! Looking mighty good!
Hi 🙋🏻♀️ lf l remember correctly ~l thinkAbby. … had …. Said ~her daddy knew him from their church and Jay was asked to go to work at Abby’s project -- making her dream home a reality Cool right 👍
Yuuup !! Jay is his name and I have been following along since the beginning !! Jay has taught Abby, SO MUCH in the refurbishing of her house, I can only say, he is a scholar and a gentleman !! Certainly VERY qualified !!
Abby, I love the casework around your windows - looks so elegant !!
They look stunning
What a lovely, hard-working man, Jay is, and nothing seems to be too much trouble. Your house is looking absolutely lovely, and now that your bay windows are done, all I can see is your Christmas tree sparkling with lights. Well done to both of you. Love from Australia ❤
That trim is gorgeous. I'm such a Mom - after you finished staining and went to the end shot - I was screaming in my head, "Get that sweating plastic cup off the freshly done window sill"!. LOL. Big hugs from Maine.
I agree and I'm saying, "Wipe sanded boards with tack cloth" and "Stir that stain often".
Jay is definitely a gem!
The window trim looks wonderful without over complicating it with mitered corners. I am so excited to see all of the progress. Keep up the good work.
The stain color is perfect. It makes the windows pop without being overwhelming.
Yes!!
It is so pretty Abby. Older houses have more character than the new ones.
You are so lucky to have Jay help you and be so patient teaching you to do things for yourself.
My God, them windows looks like a picture frame.. So beautiful to look at them.... Never seen such good looking window frames.....
I think Jay should have his own channel called "Working houses with Jay"!!
LOL.
All I could concentrate on was the drink on the windowsill!! LOL!! It's beyond beautiful!!!
I know, what the heck Abby, use a coaster! 😂
There is a plastic glove under the cup😜
@@janw9594 I think it's a sm can of varnish???
@@janw9594 ahh, ok, Nevermind Abby. Lol
That extra trim piece on the outside is extra work but it sure sets the window out as if a frame. Good job
Absolutely agree, it’s the little details that will make this home bespoke and high end.
I am imagining the christmas tree in front of those windows!! 🎄
I am so happy for you. It has been a joy to follow you and see your home coming together. It won’t be long and you will be moving in.
I do like the straight across pieces rather than the angle cuts. I think we probably grew fancy later so the straight is typical of the era of the house 😅
I'm tearing up a bit seeing the new windows framed out and the finished walls in the bay. I remember you putting Christmas 'trees' up in that bay the last few years, even as rough as it was that first Christmas when it was trimmed branches stuck in a bucket! It's so wonderful to see your dream getting so much closer to being a reality! Just awesome. So happy for you and thankful for Jay and everyone else who has helped you on your journey. 🎉❤🎉
Abby, the windows are beautiful. If you sand and stain the boards before Jay cuts them, you can do that outside. The mess will be out of your house. Plus sanding and staining long boards would be much easier. 😊
....especially if you make yourself 2 (or 3) simple sawhorses to support the timber whilst you stain. It will avoid you having a back ache.
Those window frames are looking fabulous,
Especially that huge picture window… absolutely gorgeous! 😊
Cannot wait to see the Christmas tree in the bay window later in the year, it has to be the perfect specimen!
It's starting to look like a home that will be loved for years to come.... great job Abby. You should be so proud of yourself ❤
Can't believe how things are coming together inside and out! The trim is lovely and after the trim and flooring is in, you're down to water and electrical!!! I think Jay will miss you and this adventure when you get moved in!! Looking forward to the final touches!!!❤...sending love from Ohio!!!!!😊
WOW the window trim makes a huge beautiful difference love them
Oh my gosh, the windows look amazing! Just imagine looking out and watching each season come in, especially snowfall around Christmas!
Love how the bay windows frame the view. Best art, ever. 🖼️
Boy I wish I had a Jay,he’s wonderful, all his knowledge.
The wood around the windows look beautiful. I have been watching you since day one and I think I’m going to go back now and watch your very first video again. You’ve come a long way and you’ve worked hard for it.
Sharon here.... I love how tje window frames turned out! A lovely shade of stain? Great job Jay and Abby! 👍🙂❤
This looked amazing, then you added the trim and it looked even more amazing 🤩, then you stained it and knocked it out of the park. It looks so great and you guys are doing amazing work! You’re gonna love the finished product 🩷
I absolutely love the windows with the trim on… they are absolutely gorgeous!
Beautiful frames around the windows! The art changes with the seasons. Gorgeous!
I remember your first christmas and your sister helped you put a tree in the bay window; what a difference! Just think how grand this years tree will look in this beautiful bay window!🎄
This wood/ white contrast is exactly what I see in my mind, if I build my home. I love it. And the trim piece does set it off.
Oh Wow , this is so nice love this window treatment . Abby and Jay your the best . Love every episode so far . Great Job ! 💕💕
just think how pretty it's going to look with your Christmas Tree in the window this year! so exciting!
beautiful !!!!! this house is irreplaceable...you do know that, right ???? hugs
Jay is the Champion that making all those wishes of Abby come true. It's looking so nice. Loving the straight cut window trim boards; they really fit the 'vibe' of the house well.
Abby and Jay those window casings are perfect for this renovated farmhouse. They are really very pretty. Love them. Have a beautiful blessed night. 🙏
The windows are beautiful.
👍👍 window trim looks fantastic! The stain is very nice. It say " country living" . I can imagine lovely potted green plants to compliment the decor.
Love the way you’ve framed out the windows. I’m a fan of carpenter details that take it to that next level👍🏻 Excellent choice of stain too❤️
I love the windows. Windows are the eyes to the outside. Important to me.
The "extra bit" around the windows adds character and looks fabulous. you are doing such a great job and I'm glad you have so many awesome people around you to help you achieve your vision
I recall when you first took on the project,I said to myself those windows would look so nice if preserved.
Excellent!!
You ,Jay,electrician,plumber,
Parents,sister have contributed to bringing the project to fruition. 😊
Something I just thought of.
When you cut grass keep blower away from beautiful windows. Don't want any broken windows. 😊
Yay, Jay! What a carpenter! And awesome stain choice! Love it!❤️
Simple way to do it without mitered corners but looks terrific. Yep, the little edging finishes it off. I really like it.
I'm so happy for you. It looks fantastic!
Jay is a genius
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
Abby and Jay!! It’s gorgeous that wood the stain! And my favorite thing about how this house was designed is the deep set windows or deep sills!! So beautiful!! ❤❤❤
Beautiful window's
Love the windows and the trim piece takes them over the top. Very elegant 😊
The trim and the stain color look great Remember that all of the wood may not look exactly the same You sure have learned a lot from Jay what a blessing to have him to help and guide you 😎
Those windows are beyond beautiful! Awesome job Abby and Jay!
That trim design is beautiful. I absolutely love it!
Abby you are so blessed to have Jay with your 150 year old home as WOW the window frames look so wonderful. Can hardly wait to see the rest of the windows done. Stay safe and take care you two ❤️ ❤
Abbey! I can’t wait for this year’s CHRISTMAS TREE!!! can you even imagine how amazing it’s going to look in the bay window, lit? I can even see little electric candles on the window sills and the whole living room lit with the golden glow…..and even better, your holiday guests will be met with the view through the picture window facing the balcony by the front door. I’m so excited for you and it’s still 6 months away!!! You will be living here by Christmas!
I really love those windows. What a beautiful view outside they frame! It's just superb! Great job you both did!
I love your windows frames. The wood trim adds so much richness to the look of the lovely windows. You have excellent taste in your decorating schemes.
The window trim design is gorgeous and the stain color is perfect!
The natural wood colors are fabulous!! No dark stain please!!
That little extra trim frame around the edges REALLY takes it up a notch. Love the stain color too. Looking great!
I think stain color is beautiful. It definitely goes with your style. I also like the different window wood trim. That extra detail looks just so nice.
I like the detailed trim work on the windows
Jay is the unsung HERO !!! 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 Hats Off to your results in this Herculian endeavor.
Wow, That looks fantastic
This trim was such a great design idea. I agree with everyone else that says Jay is a gem! He reminds me of my older brother who is a retired painter with the patience and eye for detail. Your home is looking beautiful.
The perfect Traditional Farm House appeal. Detail, Details, Details.
I love watching you every time you come on you're just so happy😊. Love the windows. I remember building my house I was about your age. I'm a huge fan of your channel it's never boring.❤ Thanks for letting us watch. Add Jays a doll.
The smallest details are making all the difference! There will always be others who will disagree to the “way things are done”….but you’ve had this vision since day 1…keep going Abby, it’s really all coming together and beautiful.
Jay is such a wonderful man. He is definitely a gem. 💖
The window framing looks great, along with the stain. 😊 You've come so far.
I love your bay window . It reminds me of a picture or a book cover. Especially as I watched the clouds roll by through the windows. I have followed you and Jay since the beginning. 👍👍👍👍
Window trim looks so beautiful.
Can’t wait for your tour when it’s finished
You’re right,what a beautiful difference the trim makes. Love the style. You won’t see that everywhere! Great job both of you ! ❤🤍💙
The windows look so good! Jay is wonderful as usual! Now it's really looking like a home! ❤❤❤
Very pretty! I think you need to hang a piece of another window with leaded glass in the middle window.
Absolutely beautiful windows!! And "hello" to Jay. I'm so happy for you and all the things you're learning and accomplishing on this journey!
I hereby declare your bay windows “The Christmas Corner” 🎄Your tree is going to look amazing 🤩
You know I have always prayed about EVERYTHING,,,,EVERYTHING,,,,and I may have to wait for an answer ,but; I always find things are not so difficult to make a decision about when I PRAY, that means I don't have to wring my hands about decisions. However, I guess that would not make a very good video for people to keep coming back to. The windows look amazing Jay.
That is a very nice stain color. Good job. Jay is a gem! I think he's lost weight - you may need to get him some suspenders soon!
Yes! The window frames look very Craftsman-esque! Beautiful!
Whoop Whoop! Looks amazing! I would love to see a window seat here with pretty cushions
Abby you do the best you can trying to blend the woods together. I was told by a professional in the furniture business and she said with it will all woods blend together because of the wood grain. Everything looks great. Thank you.
Bay window looks stunning Abby. Like the little touch of trim around the window casing. Never seen that done before but I love it. Good chose of stain for the wood, looks good with the white walls. Also prefer stain over painted trim, it feels more of a country style home. Great work Abby & Jay !! 😊😊
I wouldn’t be surprised if people send you drink coasters to protect those pretty sills! 😂❤
Gosh Abby the window trim is beautiful. Well done Jay & Abby.
Add rosettes in the corner or some little wooden bits that would resemble vintage window trim. Maybe worth a look!
You’re right, window casings are stunning!
The windows casings look great! Good call on the extra piece of trim. It makes all the difference.
And soon your new home will be complete. Once that kitchen goes in you will be so excited. Looking good. Love those windows. If you stain after tape is going to be your friend so you don’t get stain on those new walls.
Those windows are gorgeous, and I look so forward to seeing your progress with every video you post.....keep up the good work❤❤
The wood trim is going to look so good you won't want to use any window treatments (curtains)!❤
I have watched you from the very beginning. I am truly amazed at the progress you have made on your home thus far. Everything is just stunning!! I’m anxiously awaiting move in day.
Windows look amazing. Thanks for the idea of that extra trim. Now I have to have it too. 😂❤
Everything looks fabulous!! Your woods ( stains/color) are going to blend perfectly, think of the beauty in the forest - ❤️😁
Love your wide window ledges you can always put plants or Nick backs on them.
I love how the trim looks! Excellent work as always Abby, you’re doing an amazing job. I’ve been watching your videos from day one. What a fantastic transformation.
Perfect, Abby!! Window frames are Perfect & the outer framing on the edges gives it the "POP" they needed!!! God Bless A Drill & & Dream
I have wa tched your Fathers vlog for years and y ours since the begining. I must say the building phase was very interesting, but the window trim you chose is outstanding, just lo0ve the way it looks.
I love the windows! Jay did a fantastic work on those frames! You did a good job, choosing the right stain color!
The window trim is extraordinary and absolutely beautiful!!!
