    Oh wow …this one feels real good to finally have off my plate and to enjoy. Thank you so much to Raycon for sponsoring today’s episode! I’m excited to continue to tackle the exterior structures to make it the perfect Summer Oasis and bring the party pad even more to life. I think July may be my favorite month yet…xx.

      What sort of snake was that? I'm from Australia where most snakes will kill you, so I literally gasped when I saw it on the video!

    • @OZ01209
      @OZ01209 3 роки тому

      I was thinking the same thing. Maybe that snake is her spirit guide during this whole makeover. 😇🐍 It will be interesting if he hangs around her next build or a different critter pops up.

    I’m sorry that the floor was such a frustrating process for you but I admire your resilience. You kicked that floor’s butt and it came out lookin great! The life of a hardcore DIY-er is tough! We don’t mind if you aren’t always consistent with video uploads 🖤 the wait is always worth it 🥰

    • @CarmenCosta6570

    Honestly appreciate the real life version of a house diy. It overwhelms me when I watch the channels that have the flawless process with the beautiful reveal and pretend like it took them a day. I am like you and first purchased a house as a single female, realistically it can take me months to finish a project.

    • @LivingtoDIYwithRachelMetz

    Yay, I’m glad you took a breather a great thing to do. I’ve been thinking it’s about time for another great video. Love love love. I love Mike he makes any project is way better. Yep up with the chickens before the heat starts. I learned that living in that desert for more than twenty years. You guys rocked it despite all the hassles.

  • @raphaelasousa
    @raphaelasousa 3 роки тому +1

    Once I saw a professional floor video explaining how to level the floor by the easiest way. He explained that all the tools that companies recommended to use in order to make the job easy just double the work. His technique is exactly throwing the cement or whatever to the floor and let the gravity makes all the work. I was struggling seeing you suffering and then you figured it out. Less is more! You did a really great job!

    The mirror wall is truly amazing! I knew you were doing mirrors but had a completely different and lesser idea of what that meant. What you did was so much more interesting and more beautiful.
    Congratulations on the floor. Your perseverance is admirable and it finally paid off.

  • @InternerVodkaAunt
    @InternerVodkaAunt 3 роки тому +1

    Someone once told me we don’t realise what we give to other - knowing you take a step back , regroup and keep going is why we watch your channel. It’s especially important for women to see other women doing something new, finding out it doesn’t work, then going back at it.
    You’ve inspired me to take baby steps to do my own upgrades, but also to step back and let it happen, and be ok with that.

  • @Kimmygrace__

    So happy to see you back! The room is amazing! You are so inspiring to me. I have CIDP & I’m physically unable to be able to do these types of projects-however watching you has given me the confidence to buy a couple of power tools & do a few small DIYS on my own. They aren’t ANYTHING on the scale of your projects, but just know that you’re an inspiration & push to someone who on some days can hardly walk. Thanks for being such a #bossbae

    Oh my! My grandfather owned a cement company for decades. So it ran in our family but you usually have those strings of chalk going down the ends and then smoothing it out with a 2 x 4 to level it and you do have to wet the cement so it doesn’t dry so quickly even for the first 24 hours so you don’t get big cracks.

MOST people would have given up. You persevered. You are so right when you say projects are a process. They truly are but they teach us so much. You are doing a beautiful job on your property. You should know that. Sending love and strength from Massachusetts ❤️❤️
