About DIY Danie:
Some of the wisest words I’ve ever heard came from a fictional children's television show where a spontaneous and courageous teacher named Mrs. Frizzle preached the motto- TAKE CHANCES, GET MESSY, MAKE MISTAKES. These are six words I’ve carried with me my whole life. To be creative, you must be willing to try new ideas, take risks and boldly go where no creative soul has gone before! You might mess up, but that’s okay because you most likely pushed yourself to new ideas, new ways of thinking and learned a little something along the way! Welcome to my channel: DIY Danie, a place made for all the creative junkies, DIY warriors, home decor inspirers and interior decorating seekers like me, who need a place to feel inspired and motivated to try new ideas in their home!

Just think, somewhere someone watching your videos has the same reaction you did when you watched those other videos. It’s all about perspective and realizing who we are and what we do is enough, and we should draw inspiration not comparisons from the people we watch. You are an amazing talent and smart AF. And at 50 years old watching your videos is what helped to make me realize that, after my husband left and I found myself in a home alone, home repair and building is not something I can’t do because I don’t have a man around anymore. I channel you every time something needs fixing.
Wow ❤️
Exactly !!!
I’m stuck in that rut right now 🫣 have to fix up all the small issues so we can sell our house before we move into a new place & I’m just not motivated at all right now 🫠
@@cherrie8386 I know that feeling well. It’s like the home you loved is now a big burden. One baby step at a time!
To be fair, she did talk about that.
I’m a professional organizer and I truly love and am so impressed with your custom drawer organizers. I’m sad that you felt less than for even a moment, because girl those drawers are goood!
same
I’m not a professional organizer, but I completely agree.
The open shelves in the kitchen are a nay from me, though. I think the natural wood would make it too busy in the blue kitchen, especially considering that open shelves always look very busy/messy by design.
Congratulations on your wedding!!! I think you should choose the shoe based on how tall you want to look when you’re walking down the aisle and how comfortable they feel. I think it would be amazing if you jeweled your converse shoes so they look like bridal converse shoes. And that could be a great and fun video too!!!
My sister did the same thing. The entire bridal party (was large) and grooms all changed into red canvas hightops sneakers after the ceremony. Bride & Groom as well !
Omg congratulations on the upcoming wedding! Wear both shoes around the house for a day to see which is more comfy and choose the winner 😍 can’t go wrong
100% agree. You want to be comfy and confident so you can enjoy your day to the fullest
Brilliant! Nothing worse than shoes killing you all day. When I was young back in England - the 60s - the largest shoes you could buy in the current styles, think stiletto heels and pointed toes, were always too tight for me. I have long thin feet and I could tolerate the pointed toes but I'd get blistered heels. And I broke several stiletto heels and nearly my neck too. Then the 70s, big chunky heels and blocky toes. I thought my feet looked like Olive Oyl's and I clumped around hating them. Here in Canada I found department stores that had nice shoes in bigger sizes as well as in shoe shops, and it was such bliss to wear comfy shoes that didn't hurt nor make my feet look like gumboots. It's your wedding. Look beautiful but be comfortable, your memories will be sweeter. 😉 My wedding shoes were so simple and fit me and I loved them. My dog ate them though 3 months later. He was a puppy so I forgave him but I loved those shoes. 😊
Congratulations Danie, best wishes for a lovely day for you two. 😘
We all so appreciate you taking the time to address what you were feeling in that moment of comparison. It is so easy to feel not good enough when you scroll through social media. Way to be vulnerable and having the awareness to recognize what you were feeling and sharing with us all! This video was truly inspirational in more ways than you know!
“Girl can do heels, just not well” 😂
Thanks for being so relatable and fun to hang with on a Saturday morning!
Danie over here givin DIY therapy! I can't tell you how many times I've had those exact same feelings! At the end of a project, you feel super accomplished, then you see someone do it "better", and you begin to doubt yourself. It's nice to know that no matter the budget, or skill level, there's someone out there that you see as "better", and they, too, feel this way! Thank you so much for your emotional honesty and encouragement! ✌🏻💜
Pair #1. The ribbon strap is such a cute detail.
Comparison is the death of joy. I love your real life approach to everything and your real words. It makes your projects so much more attainable. I really much appreciate every minute you share with us. So thank you! ❤
Sometimes those Just Do It projects need the right mood... and sometimes the right mood is frustration!! Thank you for mutual motivation
As a mother of boys…now grown and out of house…I can say I became a subject matter expert on fixing cabinets. Those monsters would slam, swing, pull and god knows what else CONSTANTLY! So years of new hardware, toothpicks, wood glue, bondo, and millions of other chemical and wood compounds I managed to keep my cabinets intact with no one the wiser! Good luck!
And toilets. I can repair a toilet thanks to my kids. 😂
Yes and amen!
My cousin flushed my uncles sock down the toilet, it made it almost all the way to the t where it joins with the city piping. Clogged every drain in the entire house.
Thank you for being so honest about how watching social media can sometimes steal your joy. I think what you said about taking pride in your own personal accomplishments is so important! And FYI: I think your homemade drawer inserts are absolutely gorgeous, and even better, very specific to your personal needs. Love what you do!!
Like darkest grey tile.
Thanks for reminding us that there is always someone who has the perfect kitchen we aspire to but, there is always someone who dreams to have the kitchen you have right now. Those drawer organizer you built are amazing and they work perfect for your needs. Way to go Danie!
WOW! Did that social media rant hit me in the right place! One of your TH-cam compatriots really alienated me with the insane amount of money they spent for kitchen organization! I mean, really? Your drawer organizers are SO INSPIRING! I realize how silly that might sound to some, but you gave me a way to get it going! Thank you!
Also: Those heels with the velvet ties are absolutely beautiful! Congratulations to you and Geoffrey! Jeffrey? Sorry, I'm not sure how to spell him. :)
1. Definitely the chunky paten leather heels for your wedding!
2. The open shelving by the window in your kitchen will look amazing. Roof or no roof will still look great!
3. Backsplash #1 with countertop B!
Can’t wait for this upcoming Reno video!
I'd also go for #1 & B.
I think all the backsplashes are great so you can't really go wrong with any of them.
I'm not a fan of countertop E as it feels too dark
Danie, you are a light in the dark, such a wonderful person! Thank you for always being honest and so inspiring, so kind to everyone and yourself. You lead by example and the world would be a nicer place if people were more like you.
It's really eye opening to see that you also struggle with comparing your home to others homes. Yours is my home inspiration and am definitely jealous of the space and freedom you have 😅 but because of all the diys you do, you inspire me to uplift my home instead of feeling down about it! Your built in billy bookcase hack inspired me to do similar, as I had so much stuff and not a lot of space to put it. Now I have an entire wall in my living room that's 'built in' bookcases and I love it! Thank you for being so open 💜
Dani I needed that chat. We’re mid reno (3yrs in) on our fixer upper, and some days the internal home shame is palpable. Really appreciate you voicing those emotions. ❤ sending love and congrats on the wedding from cape breton ❤
I love whenever you say, "Are you picking up what I'm putting down?" It always makes me smile. I was watching a House and Home video yesterday and one of the designers said she is finally doing her own home after so many years of wanting to redo her kitchen. I was glad she said that because it was a reminder that we all do what we can in our homes in our due time. I'm glad you brought attention to that.
everybody who has accomplished something…
take a bow👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🤗
I love that you keep it simple, Danie, because the project may be overwhelming, but at least it's cost effective! I seriously have experienced the same feeling when scrolling through lavish renovations. I like you have learned, that a budget isn't a bad thing. It's necessary in my life. I can still feel accomplished! Thank you for being real! 💜
Yesss, it’s so nice to have attainable and realistic people to look up to! And those little diys are what make day to day life so much better quality
Danie, you friggin Rock!! Great job being aware of your thoughts and how they make you feel, and for sharing your realizations with us. This is something we all need to remind ourselves to be aware of in these social media times. You said it correctly when you said... "we are all on our own journey" and those journeys will have all begun from all kinds of different places and it is not fair to ourselves to compare our journey with anyone else's. Be your own cheerleader and praise yourself for every accomplishment and appreciate your progress and that appreciation will lead to more accomplishments. I love the door inserts!!! Thank you for sharing the real you with us, we feel that and connect to it!
The fact that you are doing this yourself is in it self remarkable. Never feel that that’s not enough. I think you’re great!
The feeling of, "I want that, too!" Is inspiration and motivation enough. Thank you for talking about it.
We love your channel!! Don’t ever be discouraged by social media’s “bigger, better, etc.”. Your passion, sense of humor, and honesty are refreshing. Stay true to yourself.😊
Your drawer inserts are crazy good. When we renovated our kitchen, we bought a knife holder. It’s something that holds only 4 knives, cost over $100. So yeah, your DIY are super amazing! Also, love the high heel shoes with the ribbon.
Those DIY drawer dividers are better than anything you can purchase! You rock Danie!!
I'm with you on the comparison feeling. Someone once told me a quote that I try to remember: " Comparison is the thief of joy." ❤❤
It's important to tailer something to YOUR NEEDS. Not what someone else is doing. No one has time to be that Uber organized. I'm an organized person but I'm not going to let it affect my life and I'm certainly not going to let some Instagram page determine whether what I did was good enough, and neither should you. You made those drawer organizers YOURSELF!! Girl, those big box companies are paid to advertise MASS PRODUCED ITEMS. Danie, you made CUSTOM drawer organizers. It doesn't get any more bougie then that! Be proud of yourself!
Hagelslag! Love seeing it in a fellow Dutch woman's house! Now back to working in my own kitchen...thanks for the inspiration!! (Also, don't be too hard on yourself...we all have little things that need fixing. I have trim I haven't sanded and painted for probably 3 years.....)
Nothing beats a slice of white bread, butter and some good old hagelslag🤤🤤🤤
Hagelslag is so nice! Also very good over creamy peanut butter (or "pindakaas" the calvé one, of course) or on a beschuit with salted butter.
@@MsEgwene or cream cheese with pure hagelslag 🤤🤤
@@Stephanie.Gaelle oh that combo is new to me, I'll have to try it some time!
Everytime Danie said lets go shopping, i couldn’t stop thinking how fun wedding dress shopping with her would be! I understand she doesn’t want to make the channel about the wedding like many other TH-camrs, but it would be relatable for many, how to design and plan a wedding with her personality and likes!
I love the things you do. I am a 65 yr old Nana and I am really proud of your ideas. The kitchen I REALLY love.
Proud of you Danie, those drawers are beautiful and functional. Sometimes you have to do things for yourself, things that make your life easier, because we can't make big "grand" things for everyone else all the time.
Another Saturday, another DIY Danie video 😁 I feel the stars are aligning cause I've been meaning to fix up my kitchen too. Pantry is a mess, there's a door that's hanging by a screw, messy pans 😓 Taking this as a sign to kick it into gear! Love your channel ❤️
Just get it done!!! 😂😂😂
Great content today! ❤ Thanks for the pep talk. It’s lovely that you share your emotional journey along with your diy journey. We all have times that we need to stop the critical voice in our head. And the sooner and more often we do it, the more content we will be. Congrats on the upcoming wedding. 🎉
Congratulations on up coming wedding. Pick shoes most comfortable!!! As a small DIYer I love the positive in this program. Muffin from Alabama.
The flats! ❤
I like A and B for the counter top a lot! You're totally right, the subtle vein of brown would really tie it into the rest of the house
Love the drawer inserts! I did my drawers a couple years ago, except I made mine from scraps and off cuts. So yours seem crazy fancy compared to mine--oak! Lol. But I just love not having one of those terrible plastic trays sliding around in there anymore, and I love recycling my scraps, so I'm more than happy with my solution 😊
What a beautiful reminder not to allow comparison to steal the joy of your current accomplishments!
Danie, your thoughts about how social media can harm us and the way we should celebrate even the small things we accomplish resonates so much with what I’ve been dealing personally. I’m currently battling with depression and at times I feel like everyone’s got everything worked out and rocks being productive while I’m still at the same place, making a huuuge effort to get out of bed at days. But today I manage to go to a class I’ve been enrolled with and it felt so good! The thought of “oh I should’ve been attending more classes throughout the year so then maybe I’d be more productive” still came, but only I know what it took to even get here, all the grief I’d been dealing with, and how much it means to get that small thing done. So, thank you for sharing those fears and struggles you have so we can try and also be kinder to ourselves. You’re a blessing, thanks again!
Just remember, with celebrities and social media you are seeing "the highlight reel" ! NOT the day to day grind ! Part of what makes an influencer "work" is the 'better then real life' look !
I am hoping you have a wonderful day or evening, and congratulations on the class !
Remember, get outside, get some fresh air, move your body, maybe journal. Depression keeps us frozen in place, literally & figuratively! Oh, and try to eat well ! I know I have been lagging in that, myself, lately!
I love that you made a video out of all those little annoying things. They are so often ignored (also by content creators I mean) but they are so important for how the house functions and feels. Very inspiring, thanks ♥️
I’m so glad you got that “feel good moment” back because your drawer organizers have been on my mind for a few months. I don’t own, I rent and I am now coming up with a removable organizing thingy like yours, because yes it is attainable and you’re channel is awesome just like you! Speaking for myself, you have inspired many little projects I have taken on and have adapted to my rental living and it all started with your clay air plant hanger! the 3 people I gifted them to love them and it threw me into the world of polymer clay! Thank you 🙏!
That much is certain that not many people can get their toes where you have your heels, this is an old Icelandic saying. It's easy to go to the store and buy, but building, drawing and planning projects like you, is not in everyone's field. And that is why we love following you. Always be proud of you, we are. ❤🌞☺
Reality is we all have these “put it off for now” projects, like a deep earth explorer, you have taken us on this journey! I much prefer seeing real life solutions! You are our hero!
Also, I love that you were honest and open about social media making us feel inadequate. We’re all there. And you are an inspiration and you should feel very good and proud about what you did! Thank you for being you and reminding us all that there’s no small accomplishment. 🙌🏻
The kitchen looks amazing and I love your organizers. Every time I go shopping for a solution I’m reminded that I could literally build it myself when I see your videos! 😂
The organization gave me inspiration to get my own moody kitchen in order so thank youuuu!! Also Danie CONGRATS on your upcoming wedding!!!! So so happy for y’all!!! I think the heels are fabbbb
I really need to tackle the pantry. To empty out the pantry, I need to tackle the bar to have a place to put that stuff. But, you inspire me to believe that I can actually make a difference in my own life! I don't need fancy. I need organized! :)
Those custom drawer organizers are just as good as any "dream" thing. As for the shoes, they're kinda apples to oranges - one has a heel, one doesn't. Both beautiful. I think it'll all come down to the length of your dress.
Thank you for your positive words I needed to hear that I’ve been hard on myself lately . I definitely feel that way about the things I’ve done in my home when I’m on social media.
I felt that chat so deeply Danie. ❤ Thank you for honest, gentle reminder and encouragement. Also... yessssssss to that organization and ✔️ checking things off the list! 🙌🏼🙌🏼
For my wedding reception I decorated some Keds (tennis shoes). Fabric paint and pearls! Was awesome and everyone loved them!
good idea
Thank you for addressing that feeling of questioning one's moments of accomplishment. It's real and it's true. It's also a relief to know that it's not just us and we can and should reel ourselves back TO OUR REALITY 🙂.
I have a looooong list of to-do's but have been in a terrible adhd procrastination loop. Waking up to your video this morning just set the tone for the day and I'm feeling inspired and motivated for the first time in weeks. Thank you, Danie!
What's one little thing you'd like to get done today, that you don't need to leave the house for to get done? (One that doesn't feel too daunting, I mean. Maybe a hole that needs to be filled or a screw that needs tightening, or 5 minutes worth of decluttering) ☺️
Girl, thank you so much for always being so honest and fun. I absolutely adore your channel because I find myself giggling like I'm hanging out with a friend. I'm always inspired by and grateful for your videos!
don't knocked yourself , you rocked it love. you done what was needed for you, be proud
I LOVE the "You're own journey conversation".
SO very true. This is especially common for 'we ladies'. Just sayin' if you've seen my drawer's lately...they need some love.
Thank you for this Danie. I needed the toothpick fix for the "too big hole", the black plastic tower storage for under the sink thingy ( I need to find!) . I love the wooden partitioned drawers you created!! Amazing!! So many exclamation marks for you Danie. Never doubt your abilities, woman. Love the wedding shoes BTW.
I'm finding your channel to be very inspirational lately! And honestly, I think that your custom drawer dividers are divine. I've got a similar situation where the Costco-sized rolls of foil and wrap don't fit anywhere. You've given me ideas on how to make it work. Looks great!
The drawer organizers are amazing.😊 congrats on your upcoming marriage! Love both shoes. I’d go with the heel because it’s such a special day.
Loved this! That’s why the saying “comparison is the thief of joy” is SO true! Never compare and be proud of where you are 💕
Thanks Danie! I needed the talk! I’m at home recuperating and feeling sorry for myself and I need to do this to my kitchen. Now I have the ideas and something to look forward to when I’m better!
I love you so much! Thank you for your wonderful perspective and openness! I think what you do is amazing. I was also organizing my kitchen this week and couldn’t find any organizers to fit my drawer size. It’s so wonderful you can make your own to perfectly fit what you need!
Danie... Women You Rock. I can not imagine how you come up with weekly content., but you do. And it is fantastic, original and beautifully unique just like you. I pray you never feel that way again beautiful soul.
Thanks for the reminder that "our" accomplishments are worth celebrating. Sometimes we are our own worst enemies, guilty.
You are an awesome talented young woman. Love watching your vlogs.
This was really satisfying to watch. Those drawer dividers are beautiful. And I would say what you're talking about is the harm that comes from negative self talk. Telling yourself what you did isn't good enough isn't just not true and comparing yourself to others. It's talking negatively about yourself. And it's toxic and we all need to be mindful of it. Saying things like "I can't believe I did that. I'm stupid" are only harming us. I've worked on this with myself for a year and it's really changed my attitude about life and boosted my confidence. I'm taking risks I never would have a year ago. I'm showing my art to strangers and I never would have been brave enough to do that before. Anyway you're incredibly talented and I love how you create things. 💖💖💖
Dani, thank you for sharing that you compare yourself to others. The saying is "compare to dispair." I have admired you for a long time. I love that you teach as you do, you are my inspiration! And, lastly, the other saying that popped into my head when you were talking about comparing is "A valued queen straightens her competitor's crown."
YESSSS finally a normal and realistic organisation video! Thanks girl ❤️🇮🇪🍀
Danie, to eliminate the banging when you close your cabinet doors, put small felt rounds in the inside of each door. I love your drawer inserts and organization! It feels so good to get these things done, no matter how much you spend or what material you use to get the job done. Kathleen from So.California
Danie, I think it's okay to say that we all love you. Thank you so much for that video. I am struggling right now. I don't know what to do with my life and where it will take me. So thank you. Thank you for being truthful, because it helps, it helps to work and fight and it for sure makes my day better. Knowing that we all struggle, but can achieve things even if it's something small.
With lots and lots of warm hugs, Zuzanna
I love organizing kitchens. When someone in my family moves, they hand me the kitchen. Once settled, things go back to their home and can be found when needed.
It's SO sad to see joy taken away by comparison, but I think it's so important to share those moments so that we may all learn from them. Thank you for talking about it, and rest assured that those dividers are FANTASTIC.
As for tiles, I'm loving 2, maybe with 4 if you wanna do a two-tone. And yes, B for the countertop would be great.
I'm now 72, I live alone and don't like to keep asking my son to do things for me. Watching channels like yours, Ive managed lots of jobs around the house on my own like putting strip lights under my kitchen wall units, I've panelled my porch and my upstairs landing area and painted and wallpapered my whole house and put up shelves etc, etc. I am so proud of what I've achieved thanks to people like you, so you should be proud to. I love your drawer inserts, they're really very very good well done and keep on DIYing.
Thanks for the little pep talk at the end. I have been a bit burnt out on home decor content lately. And if I am honest it’s because I have been working incredibly long hours on my job with no time to do the pretty home stuff. Everyone has their own constraints, thanks for acknowledging that people with beautiful homes even feel this way.
Love this message! Comparison is indeed the thief of joy. Custom drawer organizers ARE so cool! And very doable, I am inspired. And taking the time to do those nagging tasks is a great idea. You don't realize how much those tiny things weigh in you day after day. Now every time you pull out your paper bin it will bring a smile to your face. Love this video so much.
Omg. The entire time you were building those drawer organizers, I was thinking to myself, I'm so gonna do that for my kitchen. Then you showed the final result and I was even more in love with it. How could you not feel accomplishesd after that? Even if just for a second. It's perfect. I can't wait to do it to my specs Tomorrow. From a 50 year old DIYer, you are the best.
I love the look of open shelves but anything on those shelves will get dusty quicker than you think, especially if you're displaying things you're not using regularly. So, just keep that in mind!
This is seriously a sysyphus task. Every couple of months, I am reorganizing my kitchen and my cellar. Good job !!
Danie it's great that you stopped in that "moment". For so many peole it is so hard to stop that leave that feeling. And that just leads to anxiety. Thank you for taking time in your videos to talk about hard topics like this. We are human, we're all in this together and we need realness and encouragement. ❤️ And yeeey you're getting married 🤩🤩 so exciting!! 🥰🥰
It warms my heart that you too have two boxes of those chocolate sprinkles on hand at all times. ❤
Always begin the way you intend to proceed. Flat. Flat. Flat. The detail is 👌. Chefs kiss. Think texture in interior design.
I think your drawer customizations are amazing! And look how much money you saved! You can be very proud of everything you accomplished, the toughest thing is getting motivated to just start.
I like and watch your videos but have never commented. This one was so fun. Weddings, shoes, organization, fixing problems, custom builds for inserts. And shopping and picking counter tops and tile. And your idea for that top cabinet is great. Your pep talk was wonderful. The more organized you are with your kitchen, the more time you have for creative time.
This was beyond relatable on so many levels. I'm a master of post-poning these kind of stuff. I just don't understand why I don't get it done straight away but it feels comforting to know I'm not alone. I've started this year decluttering and organizing stuff I've been wanting to do for a long time and it have felt so good. My mind is more calm and I feel so much lighter. Thank you for this video, it was very much needed and very much encouraging. Also, comparing myself to others on insta hit me hard and I got real emotional hearing you talk about it and how you for a second felt that your DIY inserts weren't good enough, because they turned out looking so high end! It's so hard not to compare while scrolling through instagram, so thank you for being real and for being you. You're awesome!
Real realz.Relatable is connection, connection is community, community is togetherness. Togetherness we belong. I Thank you for keeping it real
Dear Danie you do Not have any screws loose in that marvelous mind of yours. You are very imaginative, inspirational and and motivating. I tend to think outside the box. When you come up with some of your solutions I am inspired. Thank you 😊 💞
I laughed, related, and was ultimately inspired by this video. It was so real, so normal, and so where 90% of us are. I'm so happy you posted this, I wish I was half as brave as you.
I love how you came to your realiZation about your accomplishment! You have NO IDEA how much that small drawer organizer inspired me!!! THAT IS a huge accomplishment to inspire others with what you do. THANK YOU!!!!🎉
Early in the video you talk about the stuff that you haven’t finished. I was laughing because every time I watch you and a few others, I just wish I was so motivated to get everything done ALL THE TIME. Love the vulnerability and transparency in this video. We are all have such a shared experience and always try to hide it away. And the drawer inserts are freaking incredible!
Dear danie I’m so happy that I found your channel not only for the diys but especially for your kind,beautiful and smart words. Take care you beautiful soul🦡💛
I love the Self-Talk pep talk, super important ❤
Hi Danie!
I ordered like 5 pairs of shoes for my wedding. 😂
3 years later they’re all still in my basement in the boxes.
I think you should try both with your dress before making a decision. I personally love the “classic” ones but the flat ones might be a better choice if you’re switching to converse at the reception. You won’t have to worry about as much of a height difference-your dress might be too long if it’s hemmed for the heels and then it’s a tripping hazard. I wore flats on my wedding day because my husband is a similar height to me and no one even knew what shoes I had on. Either way, congratulations to you and Geoff! I hope you have a beautiful wedding day!
Also, as much fun as it is to see those big transformations, it isn’t realistic. I have no doubt at all that you are capable of pulling off really big things! But this is also your home that you’re currently living in, you are working on it one piece at a time. Myself and I’m sure many of your subscribers don’t have the time or the money to pull off big transformations either, but my kitchen drawers are a disaster and I’ve been searching for the right organizers for a while now. I never even had the thought to make my own.
One of the many reasons I love this channel is because you make things that seem hard to me possible. You show the real moments where projects don’t go the way they were planned. I’m sure a lot of us working along with you are going through the same thing. You’ve inspired me so many times, even with just making drawer organizers. ❤
Heals for the ceremony…then the flats for the reception and pics then your runners! Congratulations!
I spent lots of money to not even get close to how cool yours turned out. Awesome job. I wished so much I was young again. I was so in awe of you taking on your first project in the kitchen. I can’t wait till the next step. I need to do the same but sitting in the hospital bed with a broken Femur is very disheartening but your enthusiasm and hard work makes me feel great thank you
Dani is simply a beautiful human, and ever an inspiration to watch.
I don't know if someone has already mentioned it, but make certain you look at the tiles at different times of the day. You'll have different lighting at certain times. What may look nice at one time, might not look so nice at a different time. And if you spend time in the kitchen you want to look at something nice all day long
Hi Danni. Never doubt yourself again. You have done marvellous things in your house and garden. I think you are very accomplished. Take care.
I so, so appreciate that you shared the real life struggles of the little to-dos we never do 😅 it’s discouraging to only see the big highlight on social media, but you definitely motivated me to tackle the little things that have been weighing on me.
The OFFENDED look you gave Geoffrey when you said "stick on tile?!" -- I cackled. 😂 I love the direction of the backsplash (I want to do something similar in my kitchen) - if I were picking, I like the combo of 3 for the backsplash and C for the countertop, but I can't wait to see what you decide regardless! (Also congrats on the wedding!)
Dani, your enjoyment of completing your organization is wonderful. You live there. It's your life. 😁
Danie - you can do this - you are incredibly talented and tenacious.
