Also if you want to guide your hole cutting saw you can make a jig by drilling a hole with it into a piece of scrap then clamp that where you want the hole and then the hole in the scrap will guide your hole saw.
34:40 the wierd little flat screws in the middle of the hinge are actually for adjusting the angle of the door as you mentioned. If you try to screw all the way in one of them and all the way out the other it will be very visible what it does so you can see how to fit the angle of the door not to be slanted
Most of us don't want anything from you except for you to be happy. Maybe a couple of ASMR vids in the winter of you making soup, reading and walking through the snow to fetch something. An easy video. You work so hard and have gotten so much done.
I'm so sorry that you feel so much pressure from us, your online friends. That can't feel very nice for you. I am 53 & live in the UK & have been alone for 8 years & there's only me to do all the DIY. I'd like you to know that you're an inspiration to me because you show the reality of creating & building things, including your mistakes & struggles. It's helped me so much to try & get out of my own head & not be so hard on myself & think & say awful things to myself. You've made me realise its ok to have to do things a few times to get things right, it's ok to feel overwhelmed & its ok to rest & take a few days off if needed. You are a beautiful person inside & outside. In that green dress with your gorgeous hair down, you looked like a renaissance painting Rosie. So thank you for continuing to make these videos when you really would rather not make them. I appreciate you very, very much.
You have made a beautiful storage area, please don't worry about your viewers we will wait, your health is much more important, as someone dieing of cancer please look after yourself. ❤
This is Bob from the USA. I have watched you from the very beginning of your cottage adventure, and being a wood worker, I can tell you that you are doing just fine! You have come a long way in just 2 years! You should be very proud of yourself. Your house looks awesome.
Your a brilliant young person. What you have accomplished by yourself is truly admirable. No wonder you felt stressed. Not having a vehicle, to get supplies, is a huge inconvenience and just ONE of numerous obstacles you've dealt with. Your projects and videos are brilliant and thankful we all can watch this channel.
Rosie, whenever i can't sleep, or I need to decompress, I watch your videos. I hope you know how much peace and tranquility ( and giggles) they bring. I giggled at your conversation you had with your sewing machine. Cute little sewing machine will have a home now... priceless. Remember, there is joy in the journey, not just the destination .This is the kind of life and home you imagined, and now you're making it come true, but in your own timing, and also, with peace of mind. Your skills are amazing . Be proud. You guide us through, not the other way around. We are here to support you. ❤
Okay, so I had to pause the video so I could laugh at ' I've spent the morning looking at hinges and basically, I've lost the will to live 😐' and not miss anything 😂 ps. pro tip: In a tight space, hammer in and then pull out a small nail, in place of predrilling. Then screw by hand with short handled screwdriver. (Not that you are not doing an amazing job). Also, that elongated slot in the centre of the hinge is where the adjustment comes in. You can loosen the screw, shift the hinge back and forth and thereby alter the position of the hinge in relation to the cupboard then retighten the screw, theoretically. ☺
Yes, Rosie, don't think we missed that comment. I had to hit replay to be sure I'd heard correctly. 😅 I am sorry you went through all that anxiety. You're human!! Happy to know your hair grew back, though I admit to not noticing. ❤ All the best to you❣️
Hello, I am from the United States and I wanted to say that you have made the most spectacular embodied bookcase. The dowels was ingenious to me. You are doing such a great job! And you’re such and incredible artist too, so inspirational! Thank you for sharing 😊.
I too and from the USA. I’m stunned by all of your natural abilities, your drive and determination. I’m complaining because my ceilings need to be painted. After watching you I truly am rethinking my complaints and will be working on all that I can do myself. Please take time to enjoy this beautiful paradise you are creating and living within.
I'm so sorry you were sick from stressing so much. Stress affects people differently, and in odd ways. I'm glad you figured it out and are working on ways to not stress so much. I love your videos and even if you have to slow down to manage your mental health, I would still watch and be glad for the time I get to spend in your world.
The only thing I want from you is for you to take good care of yourself and to make decisions that make you happy. Whatever form that takes, whatever you need to do to get those things going, that all I want in the end. I imagine the vast majority of your viewers feel very similarly to me on this one. I appreciate that you take us along for the ride, but if there's a moment where you really just do not feel like uploading anything for literally any reason, please don't feel like you HAVE to do so. We'll still be here.
When I was still teaching kindergarten or firstgrade, the work was endless, so by the time I went to bed, I needed something so I could sleep. I ended up saying over and over, "That's all I can do for today." it worked.😊
I am a carpenter / joiner wih many years experiance. The work you have done is amazing, using limited tool selection and your overall experiance. I loved your idea of using the dowls to help prevent bowing of the shelf. Another would be to sub-divide each shelf using timber supports; you could stager these to make a unique layout. Also love the raw edge plank with bark that really breaks up the look of your unit, and don't wory about what your going to put in the cupboard thrust me you will fill them over time :D. As for your well-being, don't stress about big intricate videos out thats just added pressure. Just take a walk do a short video no talking just listing to nature and rest you mind and enjoy the tranquility of your suroundings. Enjoy the process of the projects you do, it's not just about the end goal; it also after the projects are complete and you reflect upon it and think to your self; I did that and I remember doing.... you get the the point. Well done kep up the great work.
Your health absolutely comes first. I'm glad to hear you are taking some time off. Those of us who live in climates where winter seems to be always coming, or here, know the pressures of trying to get certain things done while we have the weather for it. The people who follow you on this channel, want nothing but the best for you. Take that pressure of yourself. You are an amazing young woman and should be incredibly proud of what you have accomplished. Life will still be there when you get back to it. 💖🏡
I sort of feel like I could get a lot more of my own work done if I would only stop watching everyone else do the work that I should be doing. Oh me, my guilty pleasures. 😊
I really enjoyed just sitting with you outside while you cut your hair. For me, your video's don't have to be diy's or trips away all the time. It can be anything you feel comfortable to share. You gotta look after yourself first because we're not physically there to relieve your stress. We understand if you need more time to recover or get away. Don't feel obligated to us, we're here whenever you're ready. Do you first🙏
Rosie you dont have to feel any pressure from your viewers. I am sure we all just enjoy your art of achievements and perfection. I can sit for hours and watch you go about your life with such dedication. I recon that many people can learn the art of commitment and dedication to projects from you. Thank you again!
I will repeat what has already been said. You inspire me and , from what I see in the comments. many other people to tackle their diy projects. Like you, I'm in the middle of a seemingly never ending project-our home burned down last year and I am doing as much of the rebuild as possible to save money. I'm female, 62 and have only limited carpentry skills, but I'm smart, can watch you-tube video's all day to figure out how I need to do the next thing. Please, give yourself grace, the space to take your time and find a way to bring regular enjoyment, even fun into the process. You'll appreciate the huge sucess your project already is so much more.
Deep breaths Rosie. You’re loved more than you know 🥰….. The book shelves are amazing…like everything else you’ve put your mind to building….. we watch because you amaze us in so many ways 😊 Always do what feels right for you and your light will shine. 🌟
You’re doing such beautiful work, Rosie and you are truly an inspiration. You have to take care of yourself though and allow some time off so you don’t get stressed out, if you miss making some videos, so what? We’ll still be here when you’re ready to film and edit again. Be kind to yourself.
So much talent in everything. And you are quite the filmmaker & editor. Speeding up the video & sound while shoving in the shelving unit was hysterical. Love your humor. The shelving unit is superb. Always look forward to your next video. Have a great week.
Rosie, please, relax! We all LOVE your videos precisely for their calming impact. Your carpentry, planned and (sometimes slightly) unplanned🙂, is extraordinary, and your house is adorable. Take care, go for a walk, sleep, enjoy your life, and please, stop pressuring yourselves bc of us. We love watching you, but your life belongs to you, and (I guess) we all understand it. Take your time; we are adults. We understand you are not a Harry Potter with a miracle wand, and pushing yourself faster than is comfortable is not a point. So, relax, indeed. And when you have something to share and want to do it, you will. Building your house is a lovely process to watch, not a race🙂. Good luck!
OMW Rosie, be very proud, I love how you find solutions to everything. Your unit looks fab. Slowly but steadily you’re winning. Your house is becoming your home with each stage of completion. The fact that you’re doing this alone is a credit to you. Enjoy every step.. I know we all are too 😊
I liked your long hair, but I like this new length too; I think it is probably good to have the ends of your hair cut once in awhile too. I always enjoy seeing what you are working on, and your library shelving unit is so beautiful! I am a quilter, so I really enjoyed it that you now have a space for your sewing machine. What fun. It is often the little things that bring us the most joy. It will be nice for you to take a few days off from working, enjoy yourself. I always look forward to your videos no matter what you are doing………………take care.
The hole saw drill bit you are using should have a regular twist bit which goes in the middle. It should be set to contact the wood before the circular part and will keep it from skipping around. For this application you would want to be mindful not to drill to far and blow out the front of your cabinet door. Great work using the tools you have!
True, there's a part missing. But the cheap ones are not very stable TBH, even with the center drill. And as @logiclovaert suggest, drill from one side until the center drill goed through and then drill from the other side (which is where the missing center drill comes in handy)
Without the centering drill, you can also drill a hole in a board first and use that as a template that you clamp in the places where you want to drill a hole.
WoW! Rosie, I think you're just amazing you're a real frontier woman you should be very proud of yourself. I can't wait to see the finished results of all your projects and how far comes and then once you start really living in it and just living in it to make all you desire for your dream home.I am so happy for you. You are very brave to go out there by yourself in the freezing weather.
Have you gotten your thyroid checked? Specifically your TSH? It can cause all of the symptoms that you mentioned in your video. Not saying that your situation is not stressful- but thyroid issues are very common & can usually be regulated. I’m telling you this from personal experience so it comes with complete sincerity. Your work on the cabin is amazing! You have so many skills! I love watching you work as well as hearing your narratives. Your hair looks great! Add hair designer to your resume!
I’m also building a small library in our small cabin - looking forward to sitting and reading while gazing out the window this winter at the falling snow ❄️ Best of everything to your library build
Rosie you are so smart !! I love your videos. I love how you get excited about small things like oat milk! I get so excited when the stores get pumpkin spice creamer!! I like how you are frugal like cutting your hair making your clothes riding a bike and you do it all with such grace!
THESE VIDEOS ARE LIKE A FAVORITE MAGAZINE THAT ARRIVES MONTHLY, BUT ROSIE TRIES TO DO WEEKLY!!! I NEVER THREW AWAY ONE OLD "VICTORIA" MAGAZINE FOR YRS, REREAD, FULL OF MODELS THAT LOOKED LIKE ROSIE!! YOU ARE A BLESSING JUST DOING EVERYDAY ACTIVITIES!! THANK YOU FOR BEING BRAVE TO SHARE YOUR TRUE FEELINGS, YOUR LIFE HAS ENCOURAGED MANY WOMEN IN SO MANY WAYS!! ❤ 82 yr old former DIY, taking it easy watching YOU Tube, Son installed wifi, pays mo bill, was my 80th BD gift, said welcome to the 21st Century!! ❤great grma nan
You have to run the drill bit backwards for a little bit. It will turn at a slower rate. Then you can change the direction to forward to cut normally. It should prevent the sliding of the bit.
Iron deficiency can cause symptoms like hair loss & anxiety (just FYI). Has your diet improved since you got the electric bike? Your home is beautiful (& you don’t owe us anything x).
Oh how beautifully the shelving unit has come together. Your craftsmanship is amazing. It's been a pleasure watching your homestead grow and change. And watching you grow and change too. Being able to recognize the stress you put yourself under is big, as is taking the action to curb it. Deep breath and remember...out of chaos comes order.
I've only recently started watching your videos Rosie and I watch them to relax and feel better about myself and my life. To learn to laugh at my own mistakes and to know it's ok no matter what. I like you so much and please know that it's much more important for you to feel good than it is for you to make videos for us. I care about your welfare very much and I'm sure that's true for most or all of us who tune in. ❤❤❤
So good to see you! Take care Of yourself. I’ve been through stress hair loss. It’s scary, but once things settle down, it grows back. Recognizing what you need is key and you’re doing that ❤ Peace to you.
Be happy. Life is a journey, not a destination. A new season, indeed! I love watching your stories, whether that's renovation or taking a break or making yogurt bread. Thank you for sharing and inspiring!
I fully understand how suddenly having a larger audience can feel overwhelming while in the middle of that stressful time. Seeing the cinematic quality of the content you put out makes me realize how much the editing part must cost, time wise. For what it’s worth you really are amazing at capturing the magic of this swedish forest and I feel like some of that magic is entering my life too through watching
If you're going to continue to use that drill bit (hole saw) for the hinges, you can drill a through hole in a scrap piece of wood, clamp it to the door and use it as a guide so the bit doesn't jump around as much.
Omg you are hilarious 😂 from the loss of will to live to the baby talk to your sewing machine having a lil cupboard space! Too sweet. Thank you for sharing!
Your skills have improved so much. If you’re going to do similar hinges. Grab your left over wood bits. Make a U that fits around the the big drill bit. Use nails and glue. Then position the U where you want to drill. Then clamp the U into place and drill. The U will prevent the drill from roaming about, like a Wild Rosie 😊
Its a great jig idea but couldnt she start in reverse or would it still kick up, that said forstner bits are not expensive at least here in Canada on Amazon they start at $9 cdn which is about 7usd, not sure where you are from
Hello, it truly seems that you do not have a clue of how gifted and skilled you are for building on your own, from the idea to the design, the choice of materials and finally the final construction. I am flabbergasted to see you on every video making with your bare hands, all these structures, pieces of furniture, additions …. Way to go! Thank you.
I'm SOOO thankful for you being so genuine and honest with us out 'here.' With you doing what you do, being imperfect on occasion, showing us how to redo and 'reset,' always moving forward. You are an inspiration to THIS 70+ year old woman! It is SO important that we offer ourselves grace in our lives. Dont ever feel like you must do or show everything perfectly. Personally, I sincerely appreciate the little imperfections or do-overs, as it takes pressure off of me trying to emulate your 'perfect' projects. Everything you do seems to come out so perfectly, it helps me know that the process getting there WASNT necessarily so perfect. You are such a wonderful young lady!! Thank you for being you, and sharing your beautiful journey!! 🥰
Your imagination , creativity, and skill are amazing! Sorry it causes you anxiety but you are accomplishing so much and have so much you want to do, it’s understandable. Your videos are so calming for us watching in amazement and you have already done so much to your charming home, you need to pat yourself on the back! Bravo ❤
Hi Rosie, as you were talking about stress, chimney, and the chimney man, i thought about you getting a wood burning stove, its kind of popular here in homesteads. All you have to do is build a concrete base, either an insulated metal backing, brick or tile mini wall to protect the floor and the wall behind the stove. You dont have to cook on it, unless you want to but the outcome is the same and you dont have to deal with a chimney or pay anyone to install it, just 2 or 3 men to lift up the woodburning stove to place it on the base and you will be set for winter. You will also have to make a hole on the wall to let the smoke out, just like a chimney but less complicated.
Your videos are wonderful and so relaxing. I look forward to each and every one of them. Try to enjoy your renovation projects. No worries No stress. Maybe you should get a little dog to keep you company. Low maintenance. Someone to talk with. You would be amazed .😊
When you slid that bottom shelving unit into place and it actually went in and fit, that was a eurekable moment for you! It was fun for us, too. I have lived with professional builders all my life (my father built our house from the ground up; he was a perfectionist) I will tell you that they fudge things all the time, especially when dealing with very old houses where the floors aren’t level and the walls aren’t plumb. As long as the finished product functions properly and is aesthetically pleasing, that is the important thing. Cabinets always have to be shimmed, even in new construction, because floors are never perfectly level. Your library is looking GOOD. 😊👍
“I’ve spent the morning looking at hinges.” [Long pause with intense expressionless gaze] “And basically I’ve lost the will to live.” OMG Rosie is the best! Rosie maybe if you could post your ideas of how the stress manifested in your life and the different stages as it developed. This could help others realize the warning signs and take remedial action before it got to the point of hair loss. Who knows, it might help you too to look at your life objectively.
Hi Rosie, it's fantastic to see you building something the rest of us would barely attempt and doing it so well. With the hinges, the 'extra screws' you identified are the adjusting screws to adjust the position of the door relative to the hinge in three dimensions. Some, when loosed allow the door to slide up or down or left to right relative to the hinge within their elongated slot(s) and then fixed at any position when screwed tight at the desired position. The other two on top, allow for the door to move in and out of the plane of the door, as screwing in or out increases the door's distance from the hinge bracket. Hope that helps. 🙂
You never cease to amaze. Your commitment to yourself sometimes puts a shadow over celebrating each little accomplishment. For the most part we are all out here cheering you on. I know for myself your efforts encourage me in greeting the day.
I enjoy watching your different projects. You deserve to be happy for bringing much content happiness to the TH-cam viewers. Wishing you continuous success in all that you do.😊
For me, life has got in the way of watching your videos. Hence I am 2 months late in commenting. I don't want to embarrass you but you are such a kind and open person that watching your videos is such a joy. Seeing your design and carpentry as a man in my late 70's makes me full of admiration and envy! My maternal grandfather was a carpenter and joiner and I'm sure he would have said the same! Joy to you in your endeavours and thanks for the pleasure you bring to us as viewers. Very best regards and best wishes from the Isle of Man.
I have to say you have a lot of courage Rosie, cutting your beautiful hair like that. We knew that of course. You show courage in whatever you do ! 👍🌻👍
You have made a series of great decisions in buying such a lovely cabin and done a fantastic job on renovating basically teaching yourself as you go. Kudos to you. ❤😊
"I've lost the will to live" 😆 Ok... now your cracking me up. You've always been real, and then cute, and now funny. Thanks for that bit. It made me lol. I'm a 64 year old grandma so I'm not hittling on you 😉 I love your channel!! We just bought a fixer upper in North Carolina. Watching you is inspiring. I'd like to learn how to build, planter boxes first, then a chicken coop, then a lean to coming off the garage for storage. It is so fun to dream, plan, and then bring it to life 😄
The live edge is a beautiful look for you library in your cabin. It’s not cliche! You on the edge nature reserve, so it makes complete sense. If you love it, then have what you love.
I think it's a great look and accomplishment that you have done in your house and the guest house. It surely beats anything most other women wound even try. Hannah Dugan in Minnesota is the only other woman that has done what you've done. You've done a super good job. Take pride in all you've accomplished Rosie. Dance around the room please.
I just recently discovered your channel and am fascinated by your videos. . Your skills and workmanship are very impressive. You are creating such a beautiful home. As a fellow introvert I can relate to everything you say and do. Hugs from Alabama, in the United States!

hi, Impressing work! ;) who is filming you from above and from long distance? do you have a partner with you?
@@GullvivasI think that Rosie is a Genius with her Drone😊
Most of us don't want anything from you except for you to be happy. Maybe a couple of ASMR vids in the winter of you making soup, reading and walking through the snow to fetch something. An easy video. You work so hard and have gotten so much done.
I agree! You're awesome!!
Ditto that!
Yes I agree
I love to watch your progress but I hate to think that my ‘invisible eye’ makes you stressed Rosie.
Oh, please no ASMR.
I'm so sorry that you feel so much pressure from us, your online friends. That can't feel very nice for you.

So thank you for continuing to make these videos when you really would rather not make them. I appreciate you very, very much.

Totally agree. I thought she looked like a forest fairy in that dress, it's so beautiful! Is that one of the ones that she made?
Hi Rosie, I fully agree. You are such an inspiration. Thank you for all the ideas. You are my Pintrest lady😅

Jeeze that was like professional carpentry. You can't even see how good you are getting at this but we can!!! I am seriously impressed.
Now, go ahead and learn some masonry - we believe in you. the worst case, the chimneyman comes along later and fixes it - again.
@@r.b.l.5841 Or give us the name of the mason and all 69K of us will have a chat with him.
You are too hard on yourself @ expect perfection. You are really amazing,as has been said before, and we, your audience admire you.
Press fit is hard to do, even impossible, and when Rosie’s using the tools she has… no words.
Your a brilliant young person. What you have accomplished by yourself is truly admirable. No wonder you felt stressed. Not having a vehicle, to get supplies, is a huge inconvenience and just ONE of numerous obstacles you've dealt with. Your projects and videos are brilliant and thankful we all can watch this channel.

Laughing at your joy over unplanned cupboard for the sewing machine. YES! A place for everything and everything in its place -- brings much joy!
When Rosie is happy I get the biggest smile on my face. Her delight is infectious. 😊
"And basically, I lost the will to live." had me laughing out loud. Love your content.
Okay, so I had to pause the video so I could laugh at ' I've spent the morning looking at hinges and basically, I've lost the will to live 😐' and not miss anything 😂

I have no idea how you have the patience to build the bookshelves. They looked so intricate.
I will repeat what has already been said. You inspire me and , from what I see in the comments. many other people to tackle their diy projects. Like you, I'm in the middle of a seemingly never ending project-our home burned down last year and I am doing as much of the rebuild as possible to save money. I'm female, 62 and have only limited carpentry skills, but I'm smart, can watch you-tube video's all day to figure out how I need to do the next thing. Please, give yourself grace, the space to take your time and find a way to bring regular enjoyment, even fun into the process. You'll appreciate the huge sucess your project already is so much more.
Omg I love the new hair! 😮❤ This length suits you so well 👍🏻
34:30 Asks the question and than proceeds to unknowingly answer it. Lovley! :D
Your videos are very lovely to watch ❤
Rosie, you actually made that! It looks great! Be proud! 😍❤️🥰
Deep breaths Rosie. You’re loved more than you know 🥰….. The book shelves are amazing…like everything else you’ve put your mind to building….. we watch because you amaze us in so many ways 😊 Always do what feels right for you and your light will shine. 🌟
You’re doing such beautiful work, Rosie and you are truly an inspiration. You have to take care of yourself though and allow some time off so you don’t get stressed out, if you miss making some videos, so what? We’ll still be here when you’re ready to film and edit again. Be kind to yourself.
Rosie, I love the way the side panel wraps around the shelf...how brilliant!❤
❤❤
Agreed!! She's got skills!!!
So much talent in everything. And you are quite the filmmaker & editor. Speeding up the video & sound while shoving in the shelving unit was hysterical. Love your humor. The shelving unit is superb. Always look forward to your next video. Have a great week.
It was hysterical to us as well! We were laughing out loud! 😂
I just finished watching XOMaCenna and now it’s Rosie time!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Me too!
Rosie,
please, relax! We all LOVE your videos precisely for their calming impact. Your carpentry, planned and (sometimes slightly) unplanned🙂, is extraordinary, and your house is adorable.
Take care, go for a walk, sleep, enjoy your life, and please, stop pressuring yourselves bc of us. We love watching you, but your life belongs to you, and (I guess) we all understand it.
Take your time; we are adults. We understand you are not a Harry Potter with a miracle wand, and pushing yourself faster than is comfortable is not a point.
So, relax, indeed. And when you have something to share and want to do it, you will. Building your house is a lovely process to watch, not a race🙂.
Good luck!
Fantastic job, Rosie!!!
OMW Rosie, be very proud, I love how you find solutions to everything. Your unit looks fab. Slowly but steadily you’re winning. Your house is becoming your home with each stage of completion. The fact that you’re doing this alone is a credit to you. Enjoy every step.. I know we all are too 😊
I resonated with the "mirror talk". Taking on a renovation, largely solo, is huge. You are doing a stunning job, Rosie! 👍😎🇨🇦🌲🔨⚙⚘
It looks beautiful! You hard work paid off! ❤
I liked your long hair, but I like this new length too; I think it is probably good to have the ends of your hair cut once in awhile too. I always enjoy seeing what you are working on, and your library shelving unit is so beautiful! I am a quilter, so I really enjoyed it that you now have a space for your sewing machine. What fun. It is often the little things that bring us the most joy. It will be nice for you to take a few days off from working, enjoy yourself. I always look forward to your videos no matter what you are doing………………take care.
The hole saw drill bit you are using should have a regular twist bit which goes in the middle. It should be set to contact the wood before the circular part and will keep it from skipping around. For this application you would want to be mindful not to drill to far and blow out the front of your cabinet door. Great work using the tools you have!
True, there's a part missing. But the cheap ones are not very stable TBH, even with the center drill. And as @logiclovaert suggest, drill from one side until the center drill goed through and then drill from the other side (which is where the missing center drill comes in handy)
Without the centering drill, you can also drill a hole in a board first and use that as a template that you clamp in the places where you want to drill a hole.
WoW! Rosie, I think you're just amazing you're a real frontier woman you should be very proud of yourself. I can't wait to see the finished results of all your projects and how far comes and then once you start really living in it and just living in it to make all you desire for your dream home.I am so happy for you. You are very brave to go out there by yourself in the freezing weather.
Have you gotten your thyroid checked? Specifically your TSH? It can cause all of the symptoms that you mentioned in your video. Not saying that your situation is not stressful- but thyroid issues are very common & can usually be regulated. I’m telling you this from personal experience so it comes with complete sincerity.
Your work on the cabin is amazing! You have so many skills! I love watching you work as well as hearing your narratives.
Your hair looks great! Add hair designer to your resume!
There are no other videos quite like yours Rosie. Always a treat
I’m also building a small library in our small cabin - looking forward to sitting and reading while gazing out the window this winter at the falling snow ❄️
Best of everything to your library build
Same here! Libraries are so cosy, aren't they?
Rosie you are so smart !! I love your videos. I love how you get excited about small things like oat milk! I get so excited when the stores get pumpkin spice creamer!! I like how you are frugal like cutting your hair making your clothes riding a bike and you do it all with such grace!
THESE VIDEOS ARE LIKE A FAVORITE MAGAZINE THAT ARRIVES MONTHLY, BUT ROSIE TRIES TO DO WEEKLY!!! I NEVER THREW AWAY ONE OLD "VICTORIA" MAGAZINE FOR YRS, REREAD, FULL OF MODELS THAT LOOKED LIKE ROSIE!! YOU ARE A BLESSING JUST DOING EVERYDAY ACTIVITIES!! THANK YOU FOR BEING BRAVE TO SHARE YOUR TRUE FEELINGS, YOUR LIFE HAS ENCOURAGED MANY WOMEN IN SO MANY WAYS!! ❤ 82 yr old former DIY, taking it easy watching YOU Tube, Son installed wifi, pays mo bill, was my 80th BD gift, said welcome to the 21st Century!! ❤great grma nan
So clever! I love everything. Thanks for sharing. I really admire you.
You have to run the drill bit backwards for a little bit. It will turn at a slower rate. Then you can change the direction to forward to cut normally. It should prevent the sliding of the bit.
Iron deficiency can cause symptoms like hair loss & anxiety (just FYI). Has your diet improved since you got the electric bike?
Your home is beautiful (& you don’t owe us anything x).
Oh how beautifully the shelving unit has come together. Your craftsmanship is amazing. It's been a pleasure watching your homestead grow and change. And watching you grow and change too. Being able to recognize the stress you put yourself under is big, as is taking the action to curb it. Deep breath and remember...out of chaos
comes order.
I've only recently started watching your videos Rosie and I watch them to relax and feel better about myself and my life. To learn to laugh at my own mistakes and to know it's ok no matter what. I like you so much and please know that it's much more important for you to feel good than it is for you to make videos for us. I care about your welfare very much and I'm sure that's true for most or all of us who tune in. ❤❤❤
So good to see you! Take care Of yourself. I’ve been through stress hair loss. It’s scary, but once things settle down, it grows back. Recognizing what you need is key and you’re doing that ❤ Peace to you.
Oh boy , you are. Such a fashion girl , yay !
Be happy. Life is a journey, not a destination. A new season, indeed! I love watching your stories, whether that's renovation or taking a break or making yogurt bread. Thank you for sharing and inspiring!
I fully understand how suddenly having a larger audience can feel overwhelming while in the middle of that stressful time. Seeing the cinematic quality of the content you put out makes me realize how much the editing part must cost, time wise.
For what it’s worth you really are amazing at capturing the magic of this swedish forest and I feel like some of that magic is entering my life too through watching
If you're going to continue to use that drill bit (hole saw) for the hinges, you can drill a through hole in a scrap piece of wood, clamp it to the door and use it as a guide so the bit doesn't jump around as much.
Omg you are hilarious 😂 from the loss of will to live to the baby talk to your sewing machine having a lil cupboard space! Too sweet. Thank you for sharing!
Your skills have improved so much. If you’re going to do similar hinges. Grab your left over wood bits. Make a U that fits around the the big drill bit. Use nails and glue. Then position the U where you want to drill. Then clamp the U into place and drill. The U will prevent the drill from roaming about, like a Wild Rosie 😊
Its a great jig idea but couldnt she start in reverse or would it still kick up, that said forstner bits are not expensive at least here in Canada on Amazon they start at $9 cdn which is about 7usd, not sure where you are from
I'm impressed she did that with a hole saw and screw driver lol Necessity is the mother of invention !!
The new haircut is lovely
Hello, it truly seems that you do not have a clue of how gifted and skilled you are for building on your own, from the idea to the design, the choice of materials and finally the final construction. I am flabbergasted to see you on every video making with your bare hands, all these structures, pieces of furniture, additions …. Way to go! Thank you.
I'm SOOO thankful for you being so genuine and honest with us out 'here.' With you doing what you do, being imperfect on occasion, showing us how to redo and 'reset,' always moving forward. You are an inspiration to THIS 70+ year old woman! It is SO important that we offer ourselves grace in our lives. Dont ever feel like you must do or show everything perfectly. Personally, I sincerely appreciate the little imperfections or do-overs, as it takes pressure off of me trying to emulate your 'perfect' projects. Everything you do seems to come out so perfectly, it helps me know that the process getting there WASNT necessarily so perfect. You are such a wonderful young lady!! Thank you for being you, and sharing your beautiful journey!! 🥰
Your imagination , creativity, and skill are amazing! Sorry it causes you anxiety but you are accomplishing so much and have so much you want to do, it’s understandable. Your videos are so calming for us watching in amazement and you have already done so much to your charming home, you need to pat yourself on the back! Bravo ❤
You do such beautiful work!! Love your library wall!
Hi Rosie, as you were talking about stress, chimney, and the chimney man, i thought about you getting a wood burning stove, its kind of popular here in homesteads. All you have to do is build a concrete base, either an insulated metal backing, brick or tile mini wall to protect the floor and the wall behind the stove. You dont have to cook on it, unless you want to but the outcome is the same and you dont have to deal with a chimney or pay anyone to install it, just 2 or 3 men to lift up the woodburning stove to place it on the base and you will be set for winter. You will also have to make a hole on the wall to let the smoke out, just like a chimney but less complicated.
Exactly!!
This is how my wood 🪵 stove is set up
Your little chimney man won’t let you down, he knows your situation 🙏🏻🥰🇬🇧xxxx p.s your home is coming together your way & it looks fantastic Rosie xxx
Your videos are wonderful and so relaxing. I look forward to each and every one of them. Try to enjoy your renovation projects. No worries No stress. Maybe you should get a little dog to keep you company. Low maintenance. Someone to talk with. You would be amazed .😊
That is absolutely wonderful! Do you feel your home coming together, now? I do.
Simply beautiful! Just keep moving forward...no matter how small the step...you'll get there! ✌️
When you slid that bottom shelving unit into place and it actually went in and fit, that was a eurekable moment for you! It was fun for us, too. I have lived with professional builders all my life (my father built our house from the ground up; he was a perfectionist) I will tell you that they fudge things all the time, especially when dealing with very old houses where the floors aren’t level and the walls aren’t plumb. As long as the finished product functions properly and is aesthetically pleasing, that is the important thing. Cabinets always have to be shimmed, even in new construction, because floors are never perfectly level. Your library is looking GOOD. 😊👍
Always looking forward to your videos on Sunday night💕
BUT OK IF YOU DECIDE TO JUST DO A SIMPLE CUP OF TEA TYPE, INSIDE OR OUT, DISCUSS THE WEATHER, BAKE A HEALTHY BANANA LOAF?? ❤
“I’ve spent the morning looking at hinges.” [Long pause with intense expressionless gaze] “And basically I’ve lost the will to live.” OMG Rosie is the best!
Rosie maybe if you could post your ideas of how the stress manifested in your life and the different stages as it developed. This could help others realize the warning signs and take remedial action before it got to the point of hair loss. Who knows, it might help you too to look at your life objectively.
Hi Rosie, it's fantastic to see you building something the rest of us would barely attempt and doing it so well. With the hinges, the 'extra screws' you identified are the adjusting screws to adjust the position of the door relative to the hinge in three dimensions. Some, when loosed allow the door to slide up or down or left to right relative to the hinge within their elongated slot(s) and then fixed at any position when screwed tight at the desired position. The other two on top, allow for the door to move in and out of the plane of the door, as screwing in or out increases the door's distance from the hinge bracket. Hope that helps. 🙂
Did you see all those beautiful flowers in the yard. 😊 And that beautiful kitchen.❤
You never cease to amaze. Your commitment to yourself sometimes puts a shadow over celebrating each little accomplishment. For the most part we are all out here cheering you on. I know for myself your efforts encourage me in greeting the day.
I build things in my mind all the time. the mistakes are easier to correct there. 😊
There are no mistakes that I can see young lady everything looks so good to my eyes any way ❤
"This is where I can put my things..... I don't have any things." 😂
And a cliffhanger ending.... brilliant. ❤
I enjoy watching your different projects.
You deserve to be happy for bringing much content happiness to the TH-cam viewers.
Wishing you continuous success in all that you do.😊
This was the first time in my life I heard someone baby talk to her sewing machine 😂😂
I think all of it looks amazing!! Every video I am truly impressed with what you are willing to take on and how you execute it!
That’s how I cut my hair too. 😂 I like it that length Rosie. 💇♀️
Nothing minimalist about your dedication to your projects. 🏆💐❤️
I love that blond wood Rosie ! It will be so beautiful in a quiet rustic way. 🇳🇱💕🌷
For me, life has got in the way of watching your videos. Hence I am 2 months late in commenting. I don't want to embarrass you but you are such a kind and open person that watching your videos is such a joy. Seeing your design and carpentry as a man in my late 70's makes me full of admiration and envy! My maternal grandfather was a carpenter and joiner and I'm sure he would have said the same! Joy to you in your endeavours and thanks for the pleasure you bring to us as viewers. Very best regards and best wishes from the Isle of Man.
Just a few words YOU.ARE AMAZING !
I see all your wildflower gardens! So beautiful! Such a terrific idea!
yep I thought the same the flower beds are doing great and love the mowed paths
I have to say you have a lot of courage Rosie, cutting your beautiful hair like that. We knew that of course. You show courage in whatever you do ! 👍🌻👍
You have made a series of great decisions in buying such a lovely cabin and done a fantastic job on renovating basically teaching yourself as you go. Kudos to you. ❤😊
When I watch your videos it is like receiving an infusion of calm, beauty, intelligence, possibility and creativity. Thankyou!!
Also the shelving unit is awesome. You just amaze me with the wood working skills kudos.
"I've lost the will to live" 😆 Ok... now your cracking me up. You've always been real, and then cute, and now funny. Thanks for that bit. It made me lol. I'm a 64 year old grandma so I'm not hittling on you 😉 I love your channel!! We just bought a fixer upper in North Carolina. Watching you is inspiring. I'd like to learn how to build, planter boxes first, then a chicken coop, then a lean to coming off the garage for storage. It is so fun to dream, plan, and then bring it to life 😄
you doing nice things whit your place :-)
Beautiful, honest sharing. Thank you for your public vulnerability…very brave. ❤
You are so beautiful in spirit and a joy to watch every week. Such a talented woman. 🎉❤😊
You are so amazing and the renovation is coming along nicely. Just livc in the present. Tomorow will be OK.
The live edge is a beautiful look for you library in your cabin. It’s not cliche! You on the edge nature reserve, so it makes complete sense. If you love it, then have what you love.
I love the live edge board.
I think it's a great look and accomplishment that you have done in your house and the guest house. It surely beats anything most other women wound even try. Hannah Dugan in Minnesota is the only other woman that has done what you've done. You've done a super good job. Take pride in all you've accomplished Rosie. Dance around the room please.
Amazing job!!
❤ Love ya bunches Rosie.
😂love your fast forward mode. Lolol
I just recently discovered your channel and am fascinated by your videos. . Your skills and workmanship are very impressive. You are creating such a beautiful home. As a fellow introvert I can relate to everything you say and do. Hugs from Alabama, in the United States!
Haha! I love now you are so surprised the cupboard fit and worked.
Well of course it did! You’re 😎
You're absolutely amazing ❤
Your shelves look great Rosie. Just great!
