Today we are working on some finishing touches before MOVE IN DAY!!! It is coming so soon! My hot water is up and running, I have a NEW MATTRESS, and we are putting up kitchen shelves!!
Hey there! My name is Abby and I recently bought a MAJOR fixer upper house. I am SO excited to work on fixing it up this old house and turning it into my dream home. I can't wait to take you on this journey with me! I am planning to DIY as much as I can and learn so much about home renovations along the way. I am starting out totally clueless so I am sure it will be a grand adventure! Follow along on my channel if you want to see DIY projects, renovating a house on a budget, and I am sure a lot of craziness along the way! I'm just a girl with a drill and a dream.

And Jay. 🤗
My brother bought a Birch Mattress a year ago and he and his wife Love it 👍
Tears are coming because you are so close! I’m so happy for you! You have impeccable taste. It literally looks like a million dollar house!
I agree with both points 😢💞
Wow! I don't know when the move in video will come out, but I'm gonna scream for joy! Abby, when you started, you didn't know how all of these things would happen or come about. Just look at what you've seriously helped create in your own home. You really should be proud of what you've accomplished. And including your sister, such a blessing for your whole family. Your parents have raised you to be such a great, tough, strong, and accomplished person. I know they are proud of you.
Honey, we are all so proud of you! Thank God you had Jay, he’s such a wealth of information. He can do almost every job! You can run your own home improvement crew yourself now. I’ve watched you from the start, things looked pretty daunting but look at things now! Amazing. Can’t wait to see what you’ll do with the outside. Hope to see Jay helping with that as well.
I am so happy for you Abby. It's been a joy to watch you. I just love Jay and your family. You gave all worked so hard on this beautiful home.
Merry Christmas to you, your sister, and your parents, whom I follow as well, with my wishes of good health and happiness for 2025. You have done a splendid job!
Abby, are you going to keep creating videos after moving in? Will we see as you continue your work on the exterior/property? We love following along and hope you continue!
Don’t sleep with your mattress directly on the floor for too long, Abby. The heat from your body will create condensation, and with no escape for the heat you will get mould on the underside of the mattress. Happy Moving Day and Merry Christmas!
Congratulations Abby!!! your time has finally come you are truly a trooper. You never gave up you kept going like the energizer bunny. I am so happy for you are truly an inspiration to all those that want to renovate a house or building one or looking to have a future home. You deserve a billboard and award for your inspiration. Girl You Rock !!!’
Finally....you will be living in a mansion....congrats you worked so hard. It is beautiful.
This has been a wonderful transformation I can’t believe it’s about to happen. Big shout out to your parents. To your sister and friends and a big shout to Jay he’s a master your new house is a Dream
Wow I just can't believe it's been three years! lol. I started watching you when you were showing us the property. Three years has gone by so quickly! Omg it just doesn't seem like that long. Gees, what are we all going to do and watch when your all done? lol.
I have been watching you since day one and I am so very happy for you. You have both done a wonderful job renovating this beautiful home. Many blessings to you in your new home.❤❤❤
May I suggest you get some slats at your Dads place and two 2x4 and make an elevated platform so your matress breaths from beneath so you don't get mold
Congrats!! So exciting!! What a wonderful Merry Christmas present for you and your sister!!!! 🎄
Those views out your windows are amazing. Great job on the shelves. I can't wait to see the countertops.
You could use the small white in table between the chairs as a coffee station where you have end of counter, paint it darker. Would be great for coffee pot and drawers for coffee products
Abby, the time is here after all your hard work, your house is beautiful ❤
Farm girls are the best!
Best wishes in your new home. You, Jay and your family did a great job. Since you don't have counter tops, it would not be too big of a job to add the electrical outlet for your coffee maker.
Abby it has been a long time coming but girl you made it gorgeous and I know you will enjoy the fruits of your labor. Jay will definitely get his blessings for being your creator in many things you desired. Oh and what a beautiful white beard he has grown. Merry Christmas 🎄 to you all ❤.
The shelves are in a perfect spot for all those regular needs for cooking. Today is Tuesday 24, Christmas Eve . It is today that I fill out the form for American Visa .
I’m incredibly happy for you! You’ve accomplished so much and turned this unlivable house into a beautiful home.
It is like a dream to see where you are!! Just so awesome!!
I do like the shelves! They fit your style!!
I love this!!! 💕
Omgness I'm so proud of you! I've been watching from the legit beginning and what an amazing adventure! I'm so very proud of you and all the helpers! So amazing and fun to watch through the whole process!
So proud for you. I have been watching from the beginning and I know you feel so accomplished. My husband and I did a full Reno of his family home like this and it took us about a year and half but was so worth it. You have a home you can be so proud of. Can’t wait to see what else you have planned for it
The shelves look beautiful. They add a nice aesthetic balance and just the right of vertical proportion (visual "weight") to that wall. Can hardly wait to see you start moving things in. By now, it may have already happened/be happening. Here's hoping all goes smoothly.
Soon! It's so exciting! You and Trudy get to start a new year in your beautiful home! Congratulations👏 on so much great work! Merry Christmas🌲🎄🎄🎄🎆🎍🎍🎍
I want to wish you Abby, sister Trudy and the Jay family a Very Merry Christmas. Watched you since the beginning and everything is coming together. The cats will love the open shelves as a place to sit or jump up on. Have a wonderful holiday with your family.
I am always sure to give you an awesome thumbs up for every video! You are doing a great job! Always enjoy everything you share with us!
From day one, every video, this journey has been so fulfilling. The amount of knowledge, each task humbly began, that we your audience are so appreciative.
From Jay, to your wonderful parents, Seth and other artisans diligently working on this new home.
May you be blessed with many years of happiness and memories 🥰
Merry Christmas Abby and family 🎄
Looks great. If I lived there I 'd help you move. Moving in is always fun. Moving out not so much. The kitchen looks really good, cannot wait to see the counter tops. Happy Holidays to you and yours and Jay and his family. May God Bless all this coming year and keep all safe. Peace!
Love all your choices of location for appliances and such. However, As an avid cook, I like my sink close to my stove. Easier to carry a pot over to drain pasta, etc. But, you don't have too far to walk so it should work for you.
It looks so good absolutely beautiful xxxx
How exciting. Your house is beautiful. The kitchen is really nice. And, hot water. Wow!!! So glad you are able to move in.
You're brackets are designed to be used with the short end underneath. It allows the weight of the shelf or top to push the screws into the wall, whereas the other way forces the screws out of the wall
Merry CHRISTmas! Can’t wait to see move in day!
Christmas Eve in New Zealand 🇳🇿 can’t wait for your move in day on Christmas Day our time. Fantastic. can u believe it??
Merry Christmas Abby and a Bless New Year. I have been watching since the beginning I am so proud, you have come a long way. What a beautiful home you have created for yourself and sister. Jay is a true blessing cannot say enough good things about him. May God’s blessing be upon you in your new home. Karen from Malakoff TX😃❤🐈🌈
I really like the shelves it will be a nice accent to your kitchen 😊
I like them, too. To be honest, though, the white vent hood, in my opinion, would look much better if it were black to match the range. It just doesn't look quite right. But, Abby has done a fantastic job~ No doubt about it. I especially love the wide, wooden plank floors.
I think you should put the shelf over to the end of the cabinet, like the right side is. Sorry, that is what you are doing. It's beautiful. Merry Christmas gir.
Merry Christmas dear girl. I can't wait to see it all put together. And...sweet dreams in your beautiful home.
Merry Christmas, Abby & Jay!
Merry Christmas!!!!!! 🎄🎁 what a spectacular gift you get this year….moving in! ❤
Finishing touches and tweaks here and there seem to never end when you are a home owner but we know you can handle that and more, nice work.
Hi Abby,
Oh my so exciting! Love the rain shower and kitchen shelf’s.
I hope you and your family, Jay and his family
Has the most Merry Christmas and Happy New Year ❤️
You look so complying on
Your mattress
Abby. Look for
Your bed in the
Antique shops
Or individual shops you might
Like. I found the
Most beautiful
Pineapple poster
Bed it's gorgeous 😊, take your
Time.😊
Am so happy for you. Can't believe I have been watching for so long but seems like yesterday you started 😭. Time sure does fly by
Please at least make up a simple slat for under your mattress, a mouldy mattress in your beautiful new home would be so disappointing 😭 Could Jay help you build your dream bed frame if you are having a hard time finding one? The place is looking lovely so exciting for you to be moving in 💗💗💗
😂 !! A Drill and a Dream !! = 🏡 Merry Christmas 🎄 Happy Moving In !! CONGRATULATIONS, Abby et al !!! Job Well Done ✨ -V
SOOOOO EXCITED!!!!! Can't wait to see you living there!❤
My goodness the day has come !! Can you believe it!!!!
The shelves look so good! Hope you have a merry Christmas in your new house!
I'm so thrilled! Those shelves look beautiful! Oh yes, poly them because it will make them last for years! If you are very worried about anything sliding off, you can put a small strip of wood at the front of the shelves to stop it from happening. I can't wait to see you move in!
Merry Christmas to you and family and Jay and a Happy New year! 🎄🎁🎉🎆
I just finished watching your Mom and Dad latest video and they eaid you and Trudy wouldn't be able to sing carols for your U-tube family.
Given the project at hand fully understandable. 😊
Nice shelfs for kitties to get on lol I love them. They still need a cat tree to play on. Looks marvelous. You did good, and Jay too!!
You sounded like an alien.that was funny .Merry Christmas enjoy your new home.you deserve it after all that work.
Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄 ❤️ Abby. I can't believe moving in day. Wow i been watching you from day one
That's wonderful you have Hot water now in the house. One less think you have to worry about, shower faucet work well. Amazing how they can package a mattress in a such a small box. Glad you something to sleep on, but do hope it will not be that long till you get a frame for it. Shelves turned out very nice Abby, one step closer to finishing the kitchen up. 🎄❄☃️🎁
Merry Christmas! Exciting! Such a GREAT New Year for the two of you sisters! Everything is coming together beautifully! 🙂
I’m so happy for you Abby that you have now reach moving in day! I have watched every video and the house transformation is just amazing 🤩. Wishing you and Trudy a very merry Christmas 🎄 wishing you a restful and peaceful day 🎄♥️🇬🇧

You are SO CLOSE!!! I am so excited for you
So happy and looking forward to move in day video. Congratulations!
Awesome! Another great sponsorship! You've been working almost 2 years for this......Some of the biggest "subscriber" channels has Birch Living as one of their sponsors. You are literally "moving" up in the ranks young lady. I've been watching since your first video posted just not commenting too often. MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!! Can't wait to see you and your sister all moved in when you are ready to share......CHEERS to 2025! Nancy from Ohio and Wally the wiener dog.
I have watched you from the beginning with your makita saw and crowbar. Do you still have the record player and record to play while you are moving in? Congratulations young lady! You definitely have learned skills from Jay since starting this project. Enjoy your beautiful home!
Congratulations on finally moving into your beautiful home that you and Jay painstakingly remodeled over the last 3 years.
Merry Christmas to you so happy for you and your dream coming true anxious to see the continued progress 🎄☃️🎁 I've been watching since day one and it's an amazing transformation 😍
Merry Christmas to you, your family and Jay. May the blessings of Christmas be with you all 🌲
Merry Christmas to you and your family and of course that hard working Jay. Till next time from Vancouver B.C Canada 🇨🇦
Noticed you don’t have tile around the shower. Won’t that get your walls wet.
I’m so happy for you Abby. We have watched you from the beginning. Many times my hubby said he wish we could fly to you to help but we live in SC. I hope you find something else to do on you tube bc we will miss you so. Not many young people these days will take on a project like you did . What is next on your list ?Blessings Jay is great at his skills . Sylvia Garrett
Wow Abbey, it is really looking great! Love the gold fixtures in your shower,( looks very high-end)! I can’t wait to dishes and furnishings moved in!
🤣🤣 you make me laugh🤣🤣 So happy for you All yours and Jays hard work has paid off you have a beautiful home... God Bless ..!!! always love watch'in thanks for share'in.
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas Abby to you and your family, Jay and the kitties!!
Two years have gone by so quickly! Congratulations on all your hard work. Wishing you a hassle free move in day! Love and Christmas wishes from Ireland 🥰🎄
I'm very proud of you. Good job.
Wow I can't believe you're finally moving in! its been a long hard journey for sure Abby, and you've worked hard and learned a fantastic amount of new trade items that will serve you well in the future. Merry Christmas! ECF
I know you are excited to move in. I would be too. It’s been a long road. But I would have waited another month. Looks like you still have some work to do ie baseboards, wall plates a lot of touch up spots. Not trying to be a Debbie downer. Just my opinion. Your house is stunning. By the way….i could have NEVER EVER done what you did! Cudos to you AND Jay and all the other helpers.
Love the shelves.. Hope move in day goes well. Merry Christmas ❤
Merry Christmas Abby and same to your family too.
Wow! Exciting! Can’t wait to see the move in 🎉🎉
Curious how the sheet rock walls will hold up with the shower spray and mist?
You can put lighter items on the right where it may not be as sturdy
Yay! I’m sure when you read this you will be in your new home. The shelves are just perfect. I just somewhere along the way I missed why your countertops aren’t installed??? What is the deal there? 😉😉😉🎄🎄🎄❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏😊😊😊
I'm happy and sad! Well done Abby, you and Jay have made a beautiful home ❤
I’m so excited for you ❤
