A video by Chad Reynolds
But can we take a moment to appreciate how well he edited the music beats with dropping the soil bags onto the flower beds. 😂😂😂💯💯💯💯
Thanks for noticing, Jennifer :)
Yeahhhh😁
Lol notice that with the couch movement at the begining👍😂
dude, I so picked up on that like, whoa!
Yes, and...."the land that "thyme" forgot! ;)
I'm impressed but not by the transformation. I'm impressed that #1 u listened to ur wife's wish for a party #2 u cared enough to make it happen. Fellows... Pay attention. This is what a girl wants! Beautiful job all around 👍
men like to be listened to and cared about too :) Should be a lesson to all of us,,,,men, and us women too :) But your point is well taken :)
missing the painted deck.
So pleasing and inspiring.
I wasn’t expecting this video to be as entertaining as it was! This man has a very charming personality and he did a great job with this project!
This is the best backyard makeover video I have ever watch!!! Editing! Cuts the different shots the story telling!! Hands down! Love!!
I love your humor, stamina, determination, & love of wife to do all this.
Great job and thank you for making it time lapse & easy/enjoyable to watch.!!
PS...lucky wife.!!!
Does he have a twin?
I never ever (to my shame, I guess) comment anymore but today I have to! Chad - WOW!!! Seriously. What an incredible transformation you made!! I cannot wait for more in this series!! :) Jack, U.K.
Love Chad narrating this series, awesome job keep it up! I'd like to see you do the basement next, mine also is in need of some love.
Thanks for watching!!
🎉Bravo🎉 Yes, Chad, more Honey-Do videos, please!!!
Thanks for watching Rebecca!
5:02 when he slams the bags down it goes with the beat
You did a beautiful job and I love the way you said getting together with the ones you love because that's what it's all about!!!💙💜💙💜💙
THIS WAS SO GOOD!!! So satisfying to watch, it looks FANTASTIC and the Sarah M comment made me ACTUALLY lol! So so so great guys!!
Elle Lindquist yasssss 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Me too. I literally burst out laughing.
Elle Lindquist me too! Was at work & had to cover my mouth! 😂😂😂 Awesome job sir!!! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
you are an excellent story teller .. it kept my attention ..
The land that thyme forgot 😂😂😂
Lmao, I was dying of laughter at the voice over while Chad was toppled over a fallen chair with no energy!!!😂😂😂😅😅 I've been binge watching DIY home improvement videos and stumbled across this one and was pleasantly surprised by how funny he is! Also, it looks great and inviting!!!🌱🌾🌻
Omg I loved this! It was such a good blend between funny and informational
Great sense of humor! Looking forward to more!
LOVE this!!!! You are hilarious and your voice is nice to listen to. Love the orange chairs!!!
Yup, agree with Chad's calming voice. He could narrate for a living.
I agree too!!
This is like a meditation, you sound so soothing and then every ocd cleaner's dream seeing something dirty/overgrown to beautiful and clean.
I honestly wish more channels were this honest and well put together. This is realistic...a lost Art! The back yard and all its trimmings look fantastic! Thank you!
This is the first video yours I saw...and I absolutely love your channel.
It's a perfect blend of useful information, motivation and fun. Thank you.
I love that you rehabbed your existing furniture! We have become too much of a throw away society. Great job!!
The drama!!! I love it
Hi
Oh Chad my lovely man. You did good. Mellisa I bet was well pleased with all your great results. Love love love your Channel have watched you both grow over the years. You will make a fabulous Dad and Melissa and utterly wonderful Mum. Congratulations to you both. It's a magical time ahead for you both. Remember not to miss a moment xxxxxx love Jackie from the UK
So they are having a baby. I was not for sure. The last video I was seen she looked like she had a little bump, Happy for you two. I to have been watching for some time now. Mellisa, you are one bless women. :)
Good choice painting the chairs a bold orange. Made such a difference.
I loved that you have such a nice calm voice and you were working most of video instead of just talking about working!
Fun!
OMG legit had a palpitation when Chad opened the back gate...I thought he was at my house LMFAO. Kudos to him for a video (and garden work) well done! (Happy Belated Birthday!) Some of those plants are in fact weeds (the yellow and the purple that smells like garlic chives), but they can be very tricky to tell. The choice of music, humour, video angles, voice tonality...I know Chad is professionally trained in this but I really appreciate the details.
Thee best motivational spring clean up video.🌱
Awwww....Chad is nesting. How cute. lol
Seriously though, an amazing transformation.. Would love to see more video's like this one for sure. Happy Birthday Melissa..
I really appreciate your in NPR-esk narration. This whole video was so captivating and motivating.
You're a wise and loving man. I really appreciate your kind heart and your good work
Most excellent job!! That pop of orange was totally wild and went perfectly!!!
Quick makeover which looks really good.
If you want to reduce time maintaining the garden in the future, I suggest you carry out the following preventative measures: scrape back the gravel and lay down a weed suppressing membrane. Good quality membranes should last at least ten years, let the water drain away, but suppress weed growth. There is a common garden saying one year of seeds leads to seven years of weeds, blocking out the light with a membrane should stop any weed seeds sprouting under the gravel, without the use of chemicals. Even vinegar could cause problems if it leaches into the groundwater and affects your neighbours gardens. Replace the gravel over the membrane and top it up with extra gravel, around 2 to 3 inches in depth should stop any weeds growing in it. If you use the same membrane on the flower beds you can cut holes in it to plant your plants, cover the membrane with a decorative mulch, slate chippings look good, or bark chips.
You need to paint the deck soon to make sure it does not start to deteriorate.
Word of warning, you chose the top two plants: hostas and delphiniums, which slugs and snails like to eat. Hostas like shade and to be kept damp at all times, so they may need watering in the summer. Delphiniums need to be staked to stop them falling over. I suggest you might want to use herbs such as rosemary, thyme, sage and related flowers such as salvias in future as they can thrive in dry soil with little maintenance. Lots of scent and flowers, plus you can use them in the kitchen. Keep as much of the bare soil in the flowerbeds covered at all times, either using ground cover plants or a mulch. Keeping it covered reduces weed growth and limits moisture loss so you won't need to water as much.
I used to commute several hours a day so I made sure to learn how to maintain my garden with minimal effort, hope this information can help you
Helen P
Absolutely! 👍
Try "Gazanias", they are very easy to grow. They tolerate drought, heat and grow in most soils. They like full sun and bloom un white, yellow, pink, orange and red.
Good luck!
Love from Spain 💃
those orange chairs are inspired! I didn't think orange would be a good idea, but weirdly enough, they bring the whole thing together. Wow!
This video unfolded like a fictional story. I was so engaged by watching & listening to each moment with interest. Loved the editing, humor, music, outcome... All of it!
So Much Fun! More Please!
OMG! Chad this is all the things I never knew I needed in my life. Funny, informative...you did such a great job transforming the backyard.PLEASE PLEASE make this a regular thing on the channel
Really liked this video! I enjoyed the editing, it was more like a short film than a UA-cam video. It was super satisfying to see all those weeds gone!
Very good job. Any person that takes 5 hours of their time to solely rip weeds up is the man. 👍
YO!!! Where is the BEST part..... When your Lady Fare sees what you did for her! (I feel cheated)! lol. : )
A stitch in time saves nine, that's the story of my Life! So I really felt you at the beginning.
Now, I am trying to repeat this phrase to myself over and over again every time I am trying to put off doing things. Even the dishes!
It's not easy when you have to battle depression.
I am so ready to lounge back there, listening to the nice water fountain. Wish I had a private back yard. You did a great job, thanks for sharing!
Very nice! Don't forget to mulch the garden beds. More honey doos please!
That's a good heads-up - thanks for watching!!!
If you mulch the flower beds, it will significantly reduce the amount of weeds.
I absolutely loved watching this video. The commentary and editing was straight fire 🔥🔥
Love the makeover 💯💖💯💖💯💖💯💖💯💖 Great Happy colors you chose with the spray paint 💯💖💯💖💯💖💯💖💯💖
Oh man, this is so pleasing. It's a small space so weeding it makes a huge IMMEDIATE change. 5 hours in one day is a lot but if you weeded half an hour every couple of days over the months of neglect you had, it's really nothing. It's a really doable makeover and I loved it. One piece of advice, being that your yard is small but that shouldn't stop you from enjoying all of it, except it's current layout is very divided. That deck separates so much. I'd open the deck to the back (another stair perhaps?) something to connect the two distinct spaces. I know, I know that costs money.
"my backyard is a land that time forgot" *proceeds to throwing a metal stick with "thyme" on the label
PS this video is EVERYTHING.
Well I am still watching as I type but so funny he sat in that laid down chair lol
Any plant you don't want in your yard is a weed, according to my grandfather anyway. Unfortunately for me, if it weren't for the weeds, I wouldn't even HAVE a green lawn.
We have the same problem with our front lawn - that's why we removed all the grass in the backyard a few years back!
DEFINITELY want to see more Honey-Do videos! They're just great. The gentle tones and explanations, and the good video quality, is nice. Thanks for sharing this with us.
What makes this video so good is because of the truth behind the whole story.😊
pretty freaking amazing. Very well done, engaging, comedic and Useful too! I found some of the inspiration I need to work on some original ideas fo my outdoor area. Keep up the great work!
LOL! Love your style. If you saw the size of my yard and the weeds I had you could not believe it.
This guy made gardening so relatable ! 😂
Very beautiful. Your use of colour has made the garden pop. The orange and blue really look great
Absolutely beautiful transformation. The orange really paid off!!
2) Home Office --Loved the Back Yard Video (very funny) what a great Birthday Surprise for you!
That was really brave of you chad to use the orange color, I would definitely be too scared to try out something like that. but I REALLY love it. Good job
my thoughts exactly,,,,,,I made a face when he painted it, but it LOOKS fantastic!
This video was so fun, it looks really good but Chad has a great sense of humor and made it super fun to watch
I love that you mention Sarah McLaughlin. I am an instant fan of your channel.
I appreciate the added sounds thank you VERY much. Very nice. (Spraying, water, etc.)
Although you may be a great decorator, your real talent lies in transforming the mundane into something someone would sit and listen to for a spell. RC
My grandma classifies weeds as native plants growing where you don't want them to. So if you didn't like roses they could be weeds. If you like the plants keep them.
This doesn't apply for bind weed that murderous bastard.
Who cares what your grandma thinks
@@cooliipie i care about their grandma thinks
Love the documentary style of this video!
I LOVE the orange chairs so much.
Nice job. And when you paint the deck, it will look great.👍
What space should we tackle next?
1) Basement
2) Home Office
3) Nursery
3!
Nursery, Basement and then Home Office.
- Home Office
I loved this video! I loved it when he said the backyard was a cesspool of neglect. I can relate! lol
Clean My Space basement next plz
I think you should wait to know what your having first and then tackle the nursery
i love that you didnt need to buy brand new patio furniture but instead just painted/ added new things to them
Chad:"There is something sooo satisfying about planting something and seeing it grow over the years"
Me:"....hahaha like a baby?!" 5:07
Well done sir, that video was edited to perfection. Truly appreciate all the hard work you did and that went into this video.
Your sense of humour had me in splits, and the comic timing just wow...folks around you must me such a happy lot
Hey Melissa! I looked through you videos but I couldn't find anything. Is there ANYTHING that will get rust stain out of granite? Also I've noticed that the area around the sink looks stained as well. HALP!
This video was fun!
Stephanie Bogart try magic eraser
nmdeman I have. No luck
Stephanie Bogart try some naval jelly. You can pick it up at Lowe’s. It’ll eat the rust!
Bar keepers friend
It will more great if you repaint the deck floor.
Good job👍👍👍
Haha I loved the Sarah reference.
who knew watching this stuff would be soooo much fun - great video editing & humor
This brought tears to my eyes!!! What a transformation! You did an amazing job! Wow! Thank you for posting this. Many others would have been overwhelmed by the weeds and just gave up. Great video! Love the orange chairs
That joke about Sarah Mclachlan made me laugh so hard!! Great video!
Wow!! Can you come do my patio next?? Haha way to go Chad!!!
As a man with a backyard mess , I’m proud of you brother. Good job.
So cute he is doing this for his wife! It turned out so pretty!
This is what you call a "million dollors " hubby.loved your input and output.keep up the good work.love and best wishes from india.i hope that my hubby could learn atleast half of your kinda hardwork.hahaahaaa....nice to watch.
The only difference in a weed and a flower , Is the person looking at it .
No weeds are wild.
@@kiranpawar424 and....flowers aren't? its almost like they both come from the same place...
Or...a flower in the wrong place...
Billy H That’s poetic. I LOVE it. Thank You. 💖💖💖
Exactly! I'm the weird one who finds some weeds pretty.
NOONE GONNA APPRECIATE THE WAY HE THREW THE FLOWER BED ON BEAT
I love your style of storytelling. This video was so interesting, l had to watch it all without just going to the end for the reveal. I have absolutely no idea why there are any thumbs down. Great looking yard. Love the orange pops of color with the blue.
This was so great! The voice was great! The humor was great! The result was great!
I loved this video you should totally do more!!!👌💖
Thank you Lily!
How can developers cram houses together like that and expect a nice quality of life? You walk outside and 10 homes are BAM! in your face.
Who wants to sit out back with the whole neighborhood staring at ya. So much for privacy.
Literally teared up laughing 😂 you're hilarious. And it looks amazing
I love the fact that this is a manageable makeover that anyone can make.. Most makeovers I see include buying a shit load of stuff and getting rid of the old to get the new.
My favorite change: the orange chairs. Bam!
It looks amazing. I think the orange chairs add a pop of color to all the blues. Chad you did a great job
Your commentary is hilarious... 😂subscribed!
I'm gonna try to listen to weed pulling music you guys😂😂🤷🏽♀️😁
WOW your back yard came out AWESOME, and that pop of color was just right. Thanks for sharing :) :) :)
Excellent, excellent. Beautiful transformation, nice touches of humor, inspirational to boot! Well done sir, thank you.
Doobie Brothers = Weed pulling music. I see you Chad, I see you.
I liked the video but it made me feel sad that I’ll never experience any of that.
FIRST!
It looks great. Well done Chad. And yes you have some coltsfoot growing there. I guess you can call that a weed 😊🌿
Elle Lindquist and
Thank you. Congratulations.
Love the whole transformation and the fact that I smiled and laughed all through the video made me want to tackle my backyard. Thanks Chad - excellent!
First!
Cheater!!!
Well Chad, I love your title of the video. You did an awesome job in the backyard.
More chad pls.. 💗
You sound like a podcast from NPR. Love it!!
Seriously loved this chad! You did such a thoughtful job shooting and editing this into something beautiful and interesting.
