It amazes me how much you get done despite your health issues AND having a baby. I am "only" chronically depressed (meaning I have no physical illneses) and I can barely do the bare minimum to survive lol
Don't sell yourself short. "Only depression" doesn't mean you should feel bad for doing the bare minimum. (I mean intrusive thoughts that come with depression are there to make you feel bad). But point being, it's a process to getting better and doing all you might want to do. Be patient with yourself and give yourself the time you need.
"Only depression" is no joke. I had it from 14 till 27 and it's frickin' brutal. I hope it gets better for you.
That's a whole mood man. But please, don't be so hard on yourself that how the monster feeds. Do what you can, do what makes you happy, And seeking help if you can is never a bad idea. Best of luck to you, please stay hydrated.
debilitating depression can be worse than a physical disability. you know you have the health to do what needs to be done, but no motivation whatsoever, so you continually beat yourself up over it and live in misery and self deprecation. do what you can do and don't beat yourself up. progress, no matter how slow, is still progress.
You're doin you're best and doing great! Klaire is doing her best and also doing great!
The stairs look absolutely gorgeous. They look like something that would exist in a fairy/ hobbit cottage.
I say keep the mirror as is! I'm a sucker for old things and aesthetics though, so I may be biased, but there's something about gold on white that makes everything look clean.
You are the champion of champions for getting that done, AND having Potato strapped on your back whilst doing it was the best to watch.
I like that you called him a limpet.
"I know I should wait, but I'm not going to"
Big mood sis, big mood
This inspired me to do my stairs! this looks great! Thank you!
I did my stairs! I painted the risers different shades from green to blue to purple. I would have preferred to replace the runners but it wasn't in the budget or my capabilities so I just painted over them and it looks worlds better!
Thank you for showing your little boy in your videos. I know we only get to see the nice bits, but it's really happy and encouraging to see a mum marvel at a toy bus just because it was her son that handed it to her. :3
I'm really enjoying your videos ! Your house looks really nice and your taking such good care of it whilst making it your own.
I'm really enjoying making them. I'm so glad you like them too.
I would love to see your transformation of the mirror! I came to your channel when I was getting more into makeup and transforming my face. I'm so glad to be here now to witness you transform your life the way you need and want it. I remember how shocked and excited I was to see your first baby video and realize that you had only gone and made a family for yourself! Looking forward to more from you always
I love when we get little cameos of your son! You both are so adorable ❤
Also they look beautiful
When was the last time I mentioned how adorable your son is?? I was watching this with my 2 year old cousin and he kept saying "baby!" when your son was in frame, which was adorable!
Kudos to you for working through costochondritis. I have a chronic case (for me it’s a secondary condition resulting from a genetic disease I have) that started when I was 16, and I’m 28 now. I’ve been a follower for years now and I adore this new content you’re putting out!
We bought a foreclosure, & remodeling with kids is really thee most difficult thing. Ever. I have 2 young ones. One is disabled so her wheelchair takes priority. We’ve remodeled our entire house on a budget, and continue to work on it.
It’s really the smallest details that make it feel like home. Outside of decor. Like new baseboards, refinished floors, or even just new hardware in some rooms.
I’ve been a devout follower since the days of cutting your hair for charity organizations, being a guru before guru was a thing, and now I’m watching you raise your baby in the most honest way possible.
I wish the best for entire family. 🖤
the stairs really did look lovely at the end! i’m glad you managed to finish them after such a long time, it seems to have been worth the wait.
Seeing Klaire with her baby is just the best feeling in the world. Good things really do come to those who do good! 💕
Good God woman... you were SERIOUS about those stairs! Amazing job is an understatement.
You’re kinda like the real life Mary Bailey from Its a Wonderful Life. Taking an old house and, little by little, making it a lovely home for your family. Thanks for documenting this process for us. It’s really cool to see.
Lovely job you did on the stairs . The stain is beautiful, you have a charming little home.
As for the mirror, I say, keep it as is . That gold gives it an “ old world charm “ like any awesome antique.
I really admire your tenacity despite any illnesses you may have. Very inspiring, great work!!
im so invested in the progress of your house its unreal. Also, my mum gets irritated by varnish as well so when she does her wood work she uses a wax instead and it usually comes out smoother after a few coats than varnish would, maybe thats an option for you
I won't judge you for doing things when you shouldn't because that's exactly what I do in my entire life. But also I want to congratulate you because OMG YOU DO ALL THAT HAVING A BABY AROUND!! LIKE???????
Btw I personally think the mirror looks beautiful in gold and it doesn't affect the white-brown look of the stairs
Great job with the stairs. I'm also the fix-it person in my home :D
Maybe a bronze/brown colour for the mirror? I think it would match the stairs nicely!
The stairs are gorgeous! And I absolutely love your idea for the mirror. I think it'll look great
Absolutely stunning! And paint the mirror! You’re so talented that I know it’ll be done well.
This is great! I need to do this to my stairs although I also know I need to fill a lot of parts as they are very old, 1800s. Amazing you did this on your own and with a young child and health troubles. Hope you've celebrated x
Honestly the attention to details makes a big difference to you and makes you happy in the long run I say it was well worth it. Great job👍🏼
I absolutely ADMIRE your work and the passion you put in every single thing you do ♥️♥️ and the details! such an amazing artist ♥️
I have problems with varnish too but wanted the finish of one on my floors. A nice older gentleman at home improvement shop told me to use a beeswax product and just polish it to a shine. It looks beautiful and is incredibly durable and resistant to water staining.
something abou watching you and Potato interact makes me smile...
Lovely! And I think the mirror would go very well with the stares if you painted it!
Just subscribed! I've been following you for years but haven't had the courage to comment but here I am (making progress) and I hope you're doing well! Can't wait to see more from you x
You can use the stain from the stairs instead of buying polishing wax. It will match the stairs then also.
Absolutely beautiful!!! Your hard work has paid off (which clearly you know). I think the mirror would look lovely white!
Your home is coming along so beautifully!
Wawou what a huge work ! I admire how you did this all by yourself Klaire :) please don't paint the mirror, gold catch more light and add luminosity to the hallway itself :)
Pardon my english , it's not my mother language .
P.s: Bobby grown up so fast ! God bless him
Very very big well done klaire,great job x
I would stain all the baby gate. No white but for that little spot at the side. And painting the frame is a good idea. 😊
Really looking forward to seeing the mirror!
Love the stairs! Time to repaint the mirrorr 😍 can’t wait to see
Ah! Glad to see I'm not the only one who think's it'll look better.
you did a fabulous job, especially with all of the circumstances. i love your determination. i have to deal with constochondritis too, as well as a few other issues and it can be a real pain and hard to deal with. my first experience with it, i ended up in the ER because i was almost 49 and a heart attack risk, so that's what i thought it was. i look forward to seeing your further work on your house. i know you will do an awesome job with it.
Beautiful but i woudn’t paint the mirror , i love the gold with the stain of the stairs. LOVE,LOVE,LOVE💕💗💞❣️
Great job Klaire! I hope at some point you share some before/after pics of some of the rooms.
Lovely stairs! I absolutely love the stain! We have worn though our varnish on our wood floors through lots of dogs and rolling chairs. Our floors are pretty bad a chipping up and splintering, but we put our floors through a lot more than you would your stairs. Our varnish took a week to cure which, other than moving every inch of furniture out of our bottom floor, is why we can’t replace it. I dunno how yours would work.
They looks fantastic! Great job!
I get costocondritis as well. It's awful. I'm so sorry.
It hasn't been so bad this year so far. I've only had it twice. Last year I had it over 36 times. So far it's a good improvement! :D
Sane here, and I hope you’re doing well and it doesn’t flare up to much! Haven’t had it too much this year, but was super bad in years past.
Great job on the stairs, you really worked hard on it. It turned out beautiful! Hm as for the mirror you could paint it but I think leave it as it is. The gold colouring would make it a nice centrepiece and give the hall some contrast.
the mirror really looks good as is
Paint the mirror! I think it would add more to your aesthetic if you did!
You have such a beautiful baby boy!!:)
What a BIG improvement! You are a beast!
One step at a time
you can also spray paint the bars of the baby gate gold and then you don't have to paint the mirror :D
I have costochondritis as well. Hoping it goes easy on you from here on out!
It looks really good! You did a very good job😊
Please try ASMR. I used to watch your videos before bed to fall asleep because your voice was so soothing and that was before I knew what ASMR was. Now I watch actual ASMR artist but every time I watch your videos I still get tingles from your voice
You are a champion! The stairs look lovely. Seriously though, strapping your son to your back was incredibly clever. Also with the mirror, if it’s white, it might disappear into the wall (or not) so maybe if you wish, paint the mirror with a grounding colour? Idk, I’m just guessing.
That's what the browning wax should help with. I'm also thinking of painting the plain parts white and leaving the decorative edges with bits of gold peeking out. Not sure yet. I'll have to think on it some more.
Simply Klaire oooh sounds amazing.
Great job! I’m really impressed 😄👍
With how often I use you videos to wind down or fall asleep, i wonder about the percentage of views are just me listening to your voice.
Awwwww, your son is soooo cute!!!
You're amazing. Good job!
Do a black wash on the gold to make it look aged!
Oooooh! I like that idea!
Simply Klaire 😻
Love it. Reminds me of mushrooms haha.
But really, enjoy those stairs. Later in life you are going to be so fond of these memories.
And I vote no on painting the mirror. Unless its a different kind of gold with a chocolate undertone, I think it compliments the stairs well.
Please what is the music that you have used for the background ? I love it
It's called Morpho Diana. You can find it in the TH-cam audio library.
@@KlairedeLysOfficial thanks a lot :)
Wow you are amazing!!
you are a better gal than i am. wow kudos
My mom overheard you saying heat gun, and she made me start the video over. She's been salvaging and restoring benches from the state park she works at. She was in complete co-misery with you on the process.
love it!
painting the mirror white might make it look "lost" on the white wall
My upholstererd brain kept screaming LONG STROKES WHEN STAINING WOOD, but other than that the end result looks really nice.
I envy your skills 😍 wish I can do that too.. Just a question did your husband also helps or did you do it all yourself? Because you seems like you can do it all lol
I did it myself. I hate having help doing DIY, it's my little space to decompress.
@@KlairedeLysOfficial that's awesome.. he's a lucky man 👍
Is potato's hair as curly as yours?
I click the link and never can find where to enter my email.
Top right hand corner :)
Hi Klaire - question from someone who is amazed by your life - how on earth are you able to afford to live? How can you afford your house, bills, food, etc, on top of having a baby? Does your husband make a crazy amount of money at work? I am disabled and both my partner and I work full time jobs and are still constantly struggling to make ends meet.
Paint the mirror white
Three nights of no sleep and no dark circles WHAT ARE YOUR SECRETS KLAIRE
paint the mirror, it would look so nice aged
Husbands help?
in every video you mention being sick.. I have never heard of a young lady such as yourself being sick ALL the time..
Good for you.
2 years?
that's an afternoon project.
Maybe for you, and that’s awesome ☺️ However, some people have illnesses that make it harder to get things done in a timely manner.
