All opinions are my own. Thank you xoxox DIY Danie
“...had some learning curves along the way.” Learning curves! LEARNING CURVES!! 🤪😅😂🤣❤️
Can't believe I missed thattttt 😱😱😱 shameeeeee on meeee 😂
😂😂😂 can’t stop laughing 😂😂😂
Yep shameeee on you you missed it 😁
😂 💕
😂😂😂😂
Pride and satisfaction in learning new skills...worth far more than the $500 in savings. Perfect is overrated. We don't follow you for perfect, we follow for inspiration and encouragement to try on our own. The entertainment is a bonus feature.
“I’m leaving” relatable, Jeffrey.
He's always so relatable
Uhhhhhhhhh THIS WORKSHOP. Of course. Of course you built the bookshelf from scratch too. YOU KILLED THIS
Yeah ... She totally did 🎉❤️❤️🔥🔥
You’re like Saturday morning cartoons for the soul. We love you.
EXTREEMELY TRUE!!!
I think this every Saturday! "Time for my Saturday morning cartoons!" *plays DIY Danie*
"On screen words are my job." We see you Editor, and we appreciate you!
That shelf is so pleasing to the eyes... so soft and no hard edges and it reminds me of the curves of a clay ceramic. Not my style but super beautiful
I definitely thought it was made of clay when I saw it in the website
@@brianda5793 so it is actually not?
@@graceshen8446 honestly I’m not even sure
It's "urban outfitters inspired" thermacoal wall design 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
"This version isn't perfect..."
I would respectfully disagree. I think it is.
I honestly think that is way better than the original one!
Your disney princess singing in the bubble made my day! You're such a gem & I look forward to every upload🤗💕 You slaughtered this build!
😂
Seconding this comment. Danie, you're a gem 💎
"What will I put on it?? I will go with some plants...and a bowl..."
YESSS IM SO GLAD YOURE DOING THIS! I SUGGESTED THIS ONE (I’m sure with many other people too)
Edit: OMG IT WAS MY SUGGESTION. IM ACTUALLY SO STOKED
Thank you for this love!!! I am so happy to see you tackle this
Great suggestion! Now I want one.
That jingle made my day, never change x
Oh, Danie, I wish that I had found you during the lockdown. It was such a lost time for me. Your smile and eternal optimism would have made my days brighter. The good news is that I have found you, and love watching your creative process. Thank you!
Love it Danie. Remind me of the Flinstone house decor. Only I would of painted each shelf nook different colors that way looks more fun piece. Plese do more of this theme. Love to see more.😍
As soon as I seen these, the kid in me that wanted a Flintstones house, thought the very same thing!!
Omg I had the exact same thought. Flintstone decor for sure. And I love it
Not sure if Flintstone house decor is a compliment :D
Side note. I'm still OBSESSED with the resin & paint cards diy. It's inspired me to try something similar but with a color wheel theme. I paint & think it would be cool to have in my art room.
And the shelf is fantastic.
You are such a badass. I showed this video to my six-year-old son because I want him to grow up knowing women can do ANYTHING!
Anyone can do anything.
You’re just my favorite DIYer for all things DIY. I love keeping so cool. Love this piece. Yeah Dexter lol I need two of these sigh
Thank you so much for your thoughtful and responsible covid note at the beginning! Thank you for clarifying and taking things seriously and encouraging others to do the same!
The imperfect cuts give it more of a natural look that goes really well with the patterns of openings on the front of the shelf... I really think this was spot on
I looked at the original pix and thought, “No”, but you impressed me with what you came up with. I’ve been married to a custom cabinet maker for over forty years, so I don’t attempt building things myself, but sure enjoy all your ideas. (Now, if you need something out of fiber - sewing, quilting, knitting, etc - then I’m your gal!)
Same here I did not think she could pull this off even though shes a literal magician and pulls everything else off this just looked to complicated and way too hard to make but yet again she hit it out of the park
I just want to say i love you Dani because you show us your mistakes and when you can’t figure something out it’s refreshing to see that even someone who is as established and talented as you run into brick walls as well. I appreciate it 😍
I’m honestly shook this is so amazing
Please don't ever change who you are, I love your personality. Me at 65 ppl say grow up, I say but I am grown just not the way you want me to be. This is a perfect rendering of the picture just love it.
Girl, you have a real talent!! I wish I could binge watch DIY Danie every single day! I have been blown away by every single thing you have created, redecorated and made for less!! You are the best out there! You need an HGTV show!!
The original design was/is organic soooooooooo, you are true to the spirit of said shelf! Love your sense of humor! Thanks for sharing ♥️♥️
This was so great! I related to the "call an engineer" so much 😂 having a partner as an engineer always comes in handy - they seem to always figure things out LOL
Stay creative, stay positive and keep on DIYing. And when you lose your mind, keep on singing.
😂😂😂😂
Lol "(321)" is a real area code in the USA. It threw me off.. because it's mine!
Also, your editor needs a raise. 🤣
Oh Danie Girl, the saws, the saws, are caa-all-ing, What a hoot it was to watch you figure this out. Congratulations on the excellent result!
Damnnn Danie!!! Can I pls start all my weekends with you? 🙋🏽♀️
Lol i read it as Damnnn Daniel (the vans guy)
@@etsamanlapen7414 it was inspired by that 🤭
O wow, you NAILED this!!!!! Gorgeous!! I think the paint fumes were getting to you...hysterical!!
Note to self: Get friends with cool tools.....and a truck.
literally my brother haha, I’m so lucky
Check if your city has a tool library! They're hardly ever advertised, making them wonderful little secrets! They're usually run by volunteers, too, who can help you learn how to use them.
@@TheAshesvondust what?!!!! That sounds awesome!!
And.... an engineer! 🤣
LOL, I am that WOMAN!
I own cool tools and a Landrover Defender. Unfortunately I now live in Bulgaria, so NO thrift shops and very few craft shops! Yeah, yeah I know, Use the internet... but postage to here is a KILLER !
Never mind I make my own beeswax polish, add food colouring or kids powder paints to colour stuff, make my own limebased paint (whitewash) which you can also use as as fller for wall holes!.
laugh, just have to have a can do think outside the box attitude....
Love to you all. have a good Christmas and be Happy and safe for the next year!
I would never have guessed that you could make plywood bend like that. Very cool. Love it.
😂😂😂😂😂 "Dexter Vibes" to Mary Poppins!! Awesome, Awesome, work!!!!
I love that this isn't a typical DIY... I love to see women doing trade work!! 😍🔥🔥
I have at least 10 things I should be doing and yet here I am. 🤗
I have to say you put such a fun spin on your channel that keeps me wanting to watch...I'm tempted to binge watch but if I do I will regret it when there is nothing else to watch. Good content ..... keep them coming !!!
That’s amazing! It looks perfect and you are so talented!!!
1st: Thank you for the unedited clip (giggle)
2nd: You did SOO GOOD! I'm VERY impressed... and envious.
3rd: Your personality and fun-ness, is good therapy for the rest of us stuck at home because of the pandemic. THANK YOU
The editing on "the struggle is real" got me so good 🤣🤣🤣
I was super stoked to see this DIY since I’ve been drooling over that shelf for a while.
Then you showed a screenshot from “The Honest Carpenter” and I was like “Holy ***^! I know that guy!” - He worked with my husband at a bookstore for several years, and then decided to go into carpentry.
I remember being excited for him, because it just seemed so natural to him and he seemed so passionate about it. Glad to see he’s still out there going strong!
BTW - your shelf replica looks great to me! Might even try my hand at it when I have a little more time to work on a project!
Purple hair, sings, quirky personality that you can't not love. Danny is a future Disney Princess. I'm callin it now fam.
This is an awesome video concept. As someone who likes making furniture, it's nice to see you showing people that it is possible and fun.
I especially like your crazy, honest way being diy'er 😍❤️
You NAILED IT. When you are ready to change the look add cool 🦵🏽’s. Excellent work👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
"If you have time to lean, you have time to clean" - someone who has 100% worked at Tim Horton's haha!
Wonderful and real, including the “oops” gives us permission to make mistakes and still carry on! Blessed and safe days!
I love it!
Thank you so much for the reference because I've seen this bookshelf on Instagram and I couldn't find it on the web.
Will I try to make it? Yes, but probably using cardboard instead of wood.
thats what i was thinking lol i think i will get an existing bookshelf and put a cardboard cover over it so i can just use scissors and then plaster over it all
You did an amazing job on this project Danie. I can even see it in a bathroom, with towels, decorative baskets to hold stuff you don't want to see and a plant or two. Even a platform base or legs to make it taller....possibilities are endless just like your talent!
Please move to the Netherlands! I want you in my neighborhood 🥰
Omg! Yay! My husband and I actually plan on making this bookshelf whenever he gets home! Now we'll have a good idea of where to start!
Yours came out so well!
So awesome yayyyyy ❤️
Danie: Was my version of this DIY perfect?
Me: Hell yeah?!!!
and even it if it wasn't, it would have been a colossally better job than most people would have done. She's so amazing.
Your Jeff is a lot like my Mike who told me yesterday that nothing surprised him when it came to what I get into. He is also understanding and never tries to limit me. Your bookshelf is Better than the inspo piece because it is handmade and costs less. Great video!
Absolutely gorgeous one of my favourite pieces you have made, love it, you are super talented xx
Do not want to miss out..you are sooo much fun..the few times we have been both to Eastern and Western Canada..the people are so nice and the countryside gorgeous
This shelf is not my style, I don't think I'd go through all that to make it myself but have to say you freaking killed it!
It would perhaps look great in a toddler's bedroom or a daycare center.
What an awesome project, you could also make it easily out of cardboard plus it could be supper light.
This is amazing!
Does anyone else think it looks almost reminiscent of something carved out of stone? I wonder how it would look with a stone texture and color. 🤔
It's funny you said that - I keep thinking it has a "Town of Bedrock" vibe to it.
Love your channel, the last few days I’ve been binge watching .
I’ve lost count on how many of your videos I’ve watched 😳🤩😍😆
Omg you are so talented & incredibly entertaining.
We are currently in lockdown here in Melbourne Australia & so far I’ve flipped 3 furniture pieces.. it’s so satisfying to see trash turn into treasure.
I’m hooked on your content ❤️
With love from Australia 🇦🇺 ❤️
You are the most entertaining DIYer out there and your bookshelf looks amazing, all your projects are fantastic.
You, my dear...are AMAZING!!! I really love this look. I lived through the 70's when ideas like this first came on the scene. I have to admit this is a new and exciting concept, and you killed it. I enjoy your personality and your creativity and I am a big fan.
I got help...
Jeffrey: I’m leaving.
😂
You NAILED THIS!!! This is the first video I've ever seen of yours and definitely not the last!
Stupid question: why didn’t you cut the wholes before attaching the board to the frame?
I thought this, just put the front piece flat, lay the bookcase on it to draw where the holes match up, jigsaw them out then attach??? Lol looks good tho,I like it 😀
Might have been more room for the saw blade being on the book case?
@@xylindria9077 I'm thinking this too. It would be alot of maneuvering to cut the holes on a table. I wondered why she didnt cut it in sections then fill in the cracks. Would be a good use for smaller scraps of wood if you have it. This is my fav Danie dupe so far!!
@@TheRaquel84 I thought about this, too. Place the piece on sawhorses and use 1/4" or 3/8" plywood instead of MBF. She wouldn't have to use such a downward force to ease her wrists. Maybe a Dremel on the 1/4" plywood?
Possibly support too. I thought the same thing but once I saw the MDF and all those holes, yeah, probably best to attach and then cut.
Honestly so much cute with imperfections. I'm in love with it
Does anyone know where to get a print of the 'flower woman' picture right at the beginning? Please.
She’s linked it in a previous video. It’s the gallery wall styling video. Use the link in the description there.
@@jeseekahpen Thank you so much, Jessica! You're amazing!
This is one of my favorite series because you try so hard and get SO CLOSE to the original!!
Why does this shelf give me “The Flintstones” vibes?😅
I actually love that you flipped the design because now it’s unique!
Great job!!!
Hey Danie, ever think of going on the stage, you're a born comedien, no joking.
Fantastic job and in a few days. Love the paint spraying shower set up. Truly, Danie, none of us were surprised. Jeff wasn't the only one who has come to expect the unexpected. Impressed, but not surprised. Wasn't expecting a musical, but you're hired! Great voice! Love how you decorated the shelves. THAT you did BETTER than Urban Outfitters for sure.
Dani: and now I have help! 🥰
Dani’s Partner: I’m leaving....
Me: 🤣🤣
Danie - you outdid yourself on this one! The shelf is FABULOUS. That workshop is a dream.
its beautiful great work that i love to watch, but this channel feels too advanced to call it diy (at least for me). its not common for people to have these tools, the space or knowledge to do it themselves. i wish i did! it would be amazing to be able to create your own custom pieces.
yea lol like let me make this out of paper mache and joint compound. this is why the bookshelf IS almost $800- because a worker had to spend the time to build it too! always worthwhile to make your own pieces when you have the tools and resources but yea this isnt really a diy lolololol
Oh my god. The end result is incredible. It IS perfect.
Even before you're done with this piece you can see why the original was so expensive there is so much labor involved. Your workmanship on the DYII is beautiful. Thanks for the inspiration you're awesome!
Definitely had some Dexter vibes going!
It is fantastic! Only you know the bumps and bruises, we can’t tell at all.
It really is beautiful.
You’re amazing Danie! You’re my DIY hero!
Do not downplay this DIY!! This is freaking stunning and you styled it beautifully
I make mistakes all the time. I love that you have figured out how to problem solve.
Honestly I like the plywood look as well. Looking good.
I think you can do anything for cheaper. Girl you are the BOMB. Did you finish renovating your home? I would love to see your kitchen and diys there. 👍❤
Wow, this is no kidding, to my eye, the exact replica of Isobel!!!! You’re amazing! So fun to watch you!
YOU ARE MR queen!!! i have been waiting for someone to MAKE THIS! I have DMd this to every DIY TH-camr an no one has done it until now!!! omg
I feel the back of the bookshelf needs a decorative paper!! Awesome work, and yes I subscribe too see you go loopy every so often, much love. My Sunday ritual is get coffee and toast and watch Danie inspire the rest of my week.
I have the feeling I follow every Diy TH-camr from Canada 🎉
I saw all the steps and I still can't understand how you got this perfect final version. Magic!
Danie, I am so proud of you! When I saw this idea, I wondered if you had met your match. But, even more than that, I love seeing how you put these problem pieces together with such pitch perfect positivity. You CAN rock! 🇨🇦🤩
Its absolutely beautiful. If anyone can do it it's you.Enjoy it 💕
I made the same sort of tent around the edges of our attic stair manhole, including on the floor, just the other day, so I could avoid rat dust coming down while I went up there to screw some timber where I wanted to hang a chandeleir in our dining area. And I was in painters disposable overalls with hood, gloves, mask and (touch of genius!) dog poop bags taped up over my socks! Got the job done!!
This is beautiful, I once saw a shelf made of big plaster bricks, rounded here and there and everywhere and I loved it on the spot. This looks a bit like that, very organic and clean and I'd love to have one of my own, although I'll never be able to build one due to health issues. I love watching you building things and you just made my day LOL
Really great job! I liked that you did not give up, solved all the problems on your way and I liked the musical part too! That you mirrored the original makes your version even more unique. Big thumbs up!!! 😉😀👍👍
Gorgeous 😍, I would love to have a piece that awesome. I don't see you having a learning curve issue. And there were no bumps n bruises to see. You are extremely talented and skilled. Your piece is much more precious, as you built it with love and creativity. More "Can I Diy it for Cheaper"
That is so beautiful. I love it!!!!! AND we are all herr because you are a bit crazy and that is why we love you. The singing was wonderful!!
This is such a cool idea. And could be customized to any shape and size you need. I would love to make one for our record player.
That is so good! The colors inside, the orange is beautiful. Yes you did! ⭐👍👏
I love you DIYs bc they are real quality and look legit and not just cheap/easy! bc diy does mean cheap or easy it means do it yourself! And that you did!!!
Are all Canadians just lovely?🇨🇦🍁 You just seem like you'd be such a fun friend to have ahaha. Amazing project finish again Danie!!! Excited to see more home reno at your place
Danie you nailed it, you knocked it out of the universe. Great job. So talented.👍👍👍👍👌👌👌
Amazing! The fact that it was not “perfect “ whatever that means was why I loved it!
I’d paint it like a burnt orange/terra-cotta color so it looks like a clay artsy type shelf. Even sage green or cream would look gooood!
It is so wonderful to know I'm not the only one that makes up songs on the spot!
