    You guys have been there every bad day, sick day, run away from school day, feeling alone day I have had. When I couldn't cope and I thought I would never find people like me, I would watch your videos and feel a bit of hope again. Now I am older and have left school for uni, and 7 years later I actually have a couple friends to call my own! I'm so glad that I can now be there as part of your community through this. I have to return the favour somehow. I'm so grateful that you were there because I don't know how I would have managed otherwise. I'll be sticking around to see your growth no matter how difficult it gets! I'll maybe even find the time between a degree and two jobs to catch you on twitch every now and then haha, see you there! - Jess

    Doodle Date, I saw the title and almost panicked. I am so proud to be your Art friend. I wish you both the best in all your art endeavors. Thank you for your videos they have been my source of positivity whenever I am not feeling well, my tremors are bad, or my anxiety is overwhelming. Thank you, I hope you know what a difference you have made just by being yourselves.

    I remember the first time doodle date answered one of my comments. I was asking about the watercolors, and was a tiny bit scared of commenting. Very clearly, i can remember that Doodle Date had posted 3 minutes ago at the time, so i took my chance. I was over the moon when they answered, i literally cried of happiness and went out to buy watercolor paints the following day with my mum. That was in 2016, and i was only 9 at the time. Watching these videos gave me an inexplainable joy. I can explicitly remember several videos. Then one day, they stopped posting. Two weeks of no videos turned into months. That was about 3 years ago. I had to keep re-watching the old videos for a year until i simply grew out of my "art-phase". Thats when the "Why we haven't posted for a year" video was posted, and i was livid. I was so mad that they stopped posting, but understood quite well. Now i'm 16, going on 17 and i can't believe i've missed this much. Doodle Date was such a huge part of my life and my daily night routine back in the day was watercolor paints and a Doodle Date video (more like seven). I still doodle from time to time, but not as dedicated as i once was. Happy to see that they're still going strong! Just brought back so many memories. ❤️

    @rychu6101 Рік тому +2

    Good luck going forward!! If you're allowed to put holes in the walls, you could look into putting up some cabinets or shelves since the ceilings are so high! Looks like youve got a lot of wall space at least. Maybe a standing shelving unit could help too, just to give you more room to organize things!

  • @evercuriousmichelle
    @evercuriousmichelle Рік тому +1

    If you're finding the stuff overwhelming, I recommend putting all of the boxes into one room and then focusing on making the rest of the apartment as cozy and livable as possible. Then you can slowly tackle the room of boxes without them impacting your stress levels since you don't have to see them every day, if that makes sense? Essentially pretend you're in a studio apartment and the second room is your "closet."

    Something that’s really beautiful about this video is how Adam is being so encouraging and caring towards Steph and showering her with compliments. It’s so clear this has taken a toll on you, but I hope you’re finding comfort in the love you have for each other and that in years to come you will look back on this moment in life and be able to remember that even though it was hard, you made it through and kept each other going 💜

  • @spiritsjoy
    @spiritsjoy Рік тому +1

    A good idea is to make a loft out of that high ceiling, in the meantime you can use those nets that people use in tiny houses and homes made in school buses. They are anchored to the walls usually half of the room and pulled taut so it can handle weight and store the stuff you dont need to access up there and out of sight. Use a lot of hooks so if you need to get stuff down you can loosen just a few at a time to get what you need. But better is to get a few 4x4's as a skeleton and put a flat wood panel over the skeleton (i hope this makes sense) to use as a semi permanent loft. Just get a cheap ladder to get up there.

    On another note, those stairs do look like a bit of a pain but I can't help thinking they would be soooo cute as an entrance with tons of fake ivy and leaves and flowers and mushrooms. It would feel like climbing into a treehouse! Especially with pulling back the curtain as well, entering into your own little world

    Thank you home- thank you for protecting this lovely little family, for giving them space to grow and evolve as people, and for housing memories and experiences.
    From a viewers perspective - thank you house, for being a home away from home for so many of us. Thank you for welcoming us through videos when we needed an escape. Thank you for being there while we laughed, cried, raged at gouache and rocks, and let our creativity show. Thank you for not only holding a safe space for Steph, Adam, and the pigs, but also all of us viewers.
    From my personal perspective- i have been watching for a very long time, and I just wanted to share a few things that have happened to me while you lived in that apartment: I listened to your videos while walking to class in college, and now I have my degree. I had my first ever surgery and watched videos while I recovered. I got my dog and some of our early bonding was rewatching videos of yours on our bed. I've had jobs I hate and now I am at a job I love. I have been through MANY an art block and many a depressive episode.
    I really feel like I have grown with you over the years, and I deeply and genuinely thank this home for all it has done for you two. You guys deserve the world, and it is sad to move on but I am thankful you had so much joy and growth in that apartment, and even more thankful that I got to be even a tiny part of it.
    Thank you.

    Aww I know it must’ve been very emotional leaving behind your old home, especially because of how long you’ve lived there. Houses become so important to our lives and who we are, so it must’ve been very hard leaving. I’m glad you got to thank the house and say a proper goodbye. And I’m wishing both of you a beautiful and bright future! We will be here supporting and loving you guys!

    I remember writing about you guys as my artist study for my Bronze Arts Award back in 2019! All of my old research papers are full of pictures of you guys, and the work you made in the old house, so the nostalgia hits hard. I hope you get to alleviate some of your stress soon and things start working themselves out with time :)

    I have to comment on the old bath tub! I visited England back in 1994 because my brother was marrying an English girl. His apartment had the same tub! I will never forget it! In case others couldn't tell, it's shaped like an hourglass... the center of the tub curves inward. No joke I got stuck! 😂 I wasn't "that" big. Like a size 12 or 14. I sat down and somehow all the water ended up behind me and none/ very little in front of me! 😆 🤣 😂 my butt was suction cupped to the tub! It literally made a pop sound when I stood up! It happened to all three of us Americans that night (I was with my mom and my aunt) I had never seen a tub like that before, and not until this video did I see one since! Lol I also remember that the hot and cold water water didn't mix before coming out so the water is running thru just one tap, but half of the flow was ice cold and the other side was boiling hot. Lol..... traveling is so fun! Congrats on the new place and sorry you lost you old place but new beginnings can be fun too! Love yall!🎉

  • @sploompdoomper
    @sploompdoomper Рік тому +2

    The new apartment has good bones! I know it'll be a struggle to figure out storage but you guys are creative and once you get a few mirrors and art put up on the walls and personalized lighting it'll feel like home again. I can't wait to see what new opportunities this will bring to you guys! And would be cool to see videos of some of the stuff you do to the apartment even if it's not drawing it's still art.

    Adam and Steph,
    I've been following Doodle Date since 2018 - and I just wanted to say I'm so glad you're still going at it. Doodle Date has become a big influence on my relationship. My fiancé and I are both artists and we've taken to doing Doodle Date challenges on our outings. It's been a super fun bonding experience, and I'm so thankful for you guys! You make art fun and relaxing - and that's what it should be about. :)
    Please keep up the amazing work, whenever you can.

    Moving is stressful no matter what! Getting all your stuff organized in a new place can be a slow process, too, especially transitioning to less storage space. I would try to get some free-standing shelving units (or bookshelves, etc) and just cover them with curtains or whatever to create nice backdrops.
    Try to be patient with yourself and know that we're all here for you guys 💜💜💜

    Something that I’ve always loved and that my fellow Appalachian people love doing, is taking old flat-sheets ( from thrift stores, hand-me-downs, or just laying around) and hanging them up as curtains or backdrops if you’re filming videos! It makes everything look so nice and feel very homey. 💕💕

    Speaking from my recent experiences seeing the place you made your home for a long time be empty can leave you feeling empty, I hope it wasn't the same case for you guys as it was for me. However if you do feel the same, I hope your new place replaces that feeling with hope and happiness as my new place did me. Don't forget to take time for yourselves. Seeing you guys on this journey has honestly helped me feel oddly not alone. Sending nothing but love support and good vibes

It's not always glamorous or easy, but the fact that you show us that you're pulling yourself out of the bad times so bravely makes me respect you so much. I appreciate your smiles and laughs even when you're stressed, because it makes me feel like I'm not alone and that even the worst situations can be passed through.

    Smellin' good Monty! Aw this is so nostalgic, when I first found your channel (I think the original colorblind glasses was the first I saw) I binged all of your videos! Just recently I've been binging all the videos from the past couple years. I love your guys' content, I don't care where you film it, you always get me inspired to doodle!
    I've always loved how accessible and relatable your content is - just hanging out on the bed doodling together, finding joy in the small things, its cozy and I feel like I can always 'play along' and draw with you guys. Your "surviving in" aesthetic is also very relatable, we all go thru stuff like this sometimes. Maybe you could posca up some of those brown moving boxes?

Good luck with finding storage solutions that work for you and your new place (I'm being genuine but can't think of a way to better phrase this).

    It's been so long since I've watched any of your videos. I was there from the begining, and for few years I felt so guilty for not watching your new videos. I don't really draw anymore, and now that I think about it's acually really sad, losing the love for something that used to make me so happy. But every once in a while I watch one of your videos and I get the same exited and happy feeling I got as a young teen seeing you update and rushing to get my art stuff so that I can draw with you. You guys bring back happy memories from a not so happy childhood and teenage years. Thank you

    Aww, this made me a little emotional as well because my partner and I actually went through similar recently--we were forced to move after living in our old place for nearly 6 years, and it was so stressful. Now we're all moved but we're also surrounded by boxes because we're slowly unpacking due to work and just being tired. I hope that you can make even more happy memories in your new home!

    I was so worried seeing the title!! Y’all’s videos have been a huge part of my life, and a huge part of my childhood. I’ve watched some of the videos so many time that I can recite them! You two bring me so much joy and comfort. I hope that everything gets sorted soon!

    Ohh the memories, even in the hard time your positive attitudes gives me so much joy and hope. I can't wait to see the new art and new memories being made in this new place (so sorry about the stairs Steph)
    Maybe you can put the items you want to get rid of for sale for the viewers of the channel to support you!

    Thanking the house made me smile and feel sad all at the same time. Been with you guys for a long time. My favorite thing you guys did was doodles and tea, because I always wanted a friend to go do that with. I could watch your videos while I went to draw someplace and have company :) Most of my friends are in different states so it was really like having two friends along for a casual artist party. I hope this time next year I'm watching you get either a house or a place you really enjoy.

    I just abruptly had to move for the 3rd time in 2 years, it’s never easy. I had an apartment for 4 years prior to that and it pained me to leave. Your home is where you exist it’s a part of you. I’m glad y’all showed gratitude to the house itself, most try to act as if it’s soulless but when you put that much love and care and energy into something it does gain a form of life❤

    I can’t believe the journey it has been. I remember following you guys from the drawing in the library video and binge watching each video that came out over and over again . From the introduction of the Guinea pigs, to drawing with coffee, the marker challenges to the mystery of the pencil case. I remembered I commented years ago possibly with a different UA-cam account because I forget passwords lol! But i remember I said that y’all deserve more subscribers than what y’all had at the time and you guys replied saying thank you. I remember I was so excited I got a reply . Fast forwarded now I’m in college still sticking around to watch while I can!

    Praying all gets better for the both of you. You all have been a huge part of my childhood. I watched you for the first time in 2015. That was when I began to take my art seriously. I have enjoyed every video you all have made. My favorite would be your first 3 marker challenge in the cafe and Steph got stuck with her enemy sap green! I have loved every minute of yalls journey on youtube, we all love you art friends!

    I know you are probably getting soo many comments trying to tell you how to film and what to do and I really understand if you don't want any more suggestions.
    So, if that's the case: I wish you all the best for this year and I hope Steph gets to feel a little less stressed and that both of you find a way to just get some rest and have good time this spring! Your videos are always so much fun to watch (oh, all the memories from watching this...). You deserve joy and safety and comfort!!
    If you are up for one more (more or less helpful) recommendation in regards to "cramped" living spaces: 1. get some of those big (kind of ugly) heavy-duty racks (you can get them at hardware stores and ikea but other places as well - I think amazon even has them and delivers them right to your door) and put them along one entire wall of the room. These give you a lot of depth for storage (up to 60cm I think). 2. get some fabric with a pattern you really like that is big enough to cover the wall like a curtain (can also be two or three pieces of fabric) 3. either hang these fabrics directly in front of the racks all across the room like a giant curtain (lots of options for hanging systems on amazon), or cut the fabric to the size of the shelves/racks and just tie (or glue) them to the top of each one individually. (I've got some where the fabric is attached to the shelves with velcro tape, if I need access to the whole shelf, I can take the curtain down and re-attach it afterwards).
    The plus of using heavy-duty racks is their size (they usually have more depth than normal shelves) and the plus for the curtains is that you are so free to choose something you like (and you can change it whenever); it might be easier to get cheap-ish bed sheets with cute patterns instead of buying new fabric. The result is one entire wall of semi-built-in closet space. I do hope that this description makes sense. I tried my best to, words can be hard...
    Again, all the best to both of you and good luck with the new flat!

    It always hits me, with such strange feeling, the thought of being able to care for and feel connected to someone who have never met you, talked to you or know much about you. But you still feel like you know them like some of your best friends... This video made me tear up from the first clip to the last. I really always hope the best for both of you, that your best days will always overshadow your hardest. Thank you for sharing moments of everything, how ever small or big, but always very real, honest, kind and humble. "20 seconds and that's it" sometimes that's everything you need

DoodleDate means so much to me, and it’s truly been a joy to see the art-ventures you guys have embarked on over the years. You continue to be an inspiration to me, and sharing your thoughts, jokes, drawings, and stories has brought me (and many others) great joy. Thanks for all that you do. ❤

    Recently, in a short period, I had to move from a house to an appartment (which had horrible stairs too) and then went from the appartment to a new house again. I was heartbroken for leaving my home at first and didn't really like the appartment. But now I miss the appartment from time to time, even though my new house is an upgrade. It is quite confusing. I can really understand that you don't like to unpack at the moment, Steph. Take some time to feel all the feelings and be kind to yourself. Change can be a lot to process.

    I’m so happy you both have a roof over your heads. And I can relate to Steph, moving is hard, and not being able to control your environment is even HARDER, especially for us neurodivergent folks. My place lacks storage and has a lot of stairs which as you know, is not something that’s easily to deal with when you collect treasures and have wobbly-joints like we do.
    I’m wishing you both peace and joy in the new place. I hope you’ll be able to settle in soon. ❤

    Don't even worry about it being messy or "not aesthetic", I'm just glad you guys are safe and housed. Thank you guys for all you do. You're both handling it like champs.
    Steph, as a fellow autistic person, the visual clutter combined with the huge change and suddenness of it all would make me SO anxious and overwhelmed. I hope you are able to find peace soon and feel more at home so you can properly rest.
    Adam, you seem like such an amazing pillar of support and I know it's all stressful for you as well.
    Wishing you and the pigs all the best!!

    I don't usually comment on videos, but as someone who is also renting a place (with 2 friends and 1 sister, ha) and is not lucky enough to have option to buy something for myself in near or far future - damn, I'm getting emotional for this all.
    When we first moved in current flat it was so so empty and even if I bought some bookshelves now, a desk, chair, all I can think about is how hard it will be to move those things when the owner wants us out of here.
    So from some girl in Poland who is also struggling with making place a home - You got this, We'll try to help you in any way that we can! ❤
