Watching this made me cry and smile, not Bc you made me sad, not at all. But Bc I know how hard it is to invest so much into a relationship and have to end it. But your strength and poise is unmatched. I love when you said you showed them gratitude but most importantly when you realized you get to design and think only of yourself. After the pain there is joy in finding you. It took me sometime but im falling in love with me and enjoying only considering my opinions likes and dislikes as well. In life in general. I can’t wait to watch you blossom and elevate more. Your soul is pure and your heart is big. Love light and peace beautiful 💛
This! And there's also a child involved. It takes a lot to take on and love someone else's child. You don't ever expect this to happen and I can only imagine how that feels. Rachel, I hope everything works out for you! Here's to another chapter 🍻❤
This blew my mind, not only that you're going through some hard shit but that you're taking all that emotional energy and turning it into something amazing and functional to help you move on. I wish I was that strong, I hope you and Cali are doing okay, much love
I agree!! This is living/processing/healing done well. Filling your life full of positive steps helps so much. I can't imagine how you're feeling but each time you do something nice for yourself is bound to help :-) Plus, still managing to stay humble & thoughtful of everyone's circumstances around you fills me with respect for you! Kudos Rachel xxx I wish you much love!! I struggle with anxiety & depression & get very agoraphobic & isolated, I love your style & commentary & gusto, it helps me so much to be able to 'spend time with you', thankyou so much for continuing to share yourself with us all xxx
Never forget your worth and strength Rachel. You are truly an inspiration and you are incredibly strong. It’s ok to sometimes not be ok and go through hard sh*t but you will come out stronger. We are all here for you xx❤️
Wow. I could already tell you were a strong person, but this is next level. I feel like your tether has been cut and we're about to witness you truly take off just like those hummingbirds. I'm so excited to see what comes next. What a goddess.
@@thebeautyoflife327 I totally agree! I'm super inspired by Rachel sharing this and though I KNOW it's a tough time, you're right, I feel like she's just going to SOAR during/after this!!!! Thanks Rachel for being so open and vulnerable with us, while simultaneously thinking about those of us working through the complex racial issues at hand. So appreciated! Big hugs to you!!!!!
Reading this comment ten months later after she’s bought her own home, found her tribe, is flourishing in her health and new projects. I am so excited for her. It brings me a lot of hope
I know this video is 3 yrs old but when I was searching shed makeover yours came up. You have inspired me so much to do my shed. I'm at the beginning of my project. I need a new roof, floor and one side is rotten and the plywood has to be replaced. But in the time being I've cleared it out and trying to put my design together and you gave me so many great ideas. The paint job is beautiful, peg board genius, tools spray painted beautiful. Every detail you did my brain was racing like hmmmm I can do that. I'm a beginner at power tools but I know I can make my shed over to personalize my dream. Thank you so much for sharing. New subscriber and can't wait to go back and binge watch more of your videos. ❤
Going through a breakup right now too. I love you and feel everything you're feeling. Life is hard. Happy birthday beautiful; to better days ahead for us both.
i’m on the same boat as you guys. breakups are so ugly and awful but (in my case at least) it often feels necessary. hope you guys are doing okay! i hope y’all had a nice meal today! cheers
Hon, my heart just sank hearing the intro. It's been so much fun going along with you on your journey so far, and while I'm glad you're looking to this new chapter as positively as you can and that things will work out for the best, I'm sure it's still really hard for right now. We all love you, and wish you the very best, no matter what twists and turns life may take. Happy birthday, and thank you for everything
I had to rewatch the beginning to make sure I heard that right. Honey your badass here is to new begging indeed. I think I’m heading towards the same road and hope to do it in class as your doing.
Alley Oop Yeah I was like wait what!! But I have to commend her because it’s not easy sharing your life and especially something so personal. We just gotta show her all of the love!!
We obviously don't know the details, but the fact that you're able to stay gracious throughout such a significant life change speaks volumes of who you are as a human. Thank you for being a great role model and lady badass for us to look to. Wishing you nothing but happiness.
Happy Birthday, Rachel, I remember when I find this channel I was going through the most challenging time of my life, the loss of my two kids and I know is not similar at all. Still, I want you to know the God push up out situations because he wants better things for us and we don’t understand at all at first, just let him take charge because sooner than you know, you will look back and said that was nothing and I’m glad I’m when through all that and learned a lot from that situation. You’re a beautiful girl who deserves the whole world and nothing less. Stay focused and remain being you. You were my escape when my kids died, and you made my life way happier, and I started moving around the house every time I saw your videos. I wish you the best, and I know God has something beautiful planned for you in the future. We all love you, and we are thankful you share so much. God blessed you, smart, beautiful girl. Remember we all here anytime you need us ❤️
AMAZING! I love how you didn't let a breakup set you back! And you've been able to put out some more amazing make overs and DIYs. I appreciate that you shared your struggles because a lot of us are feeling lost and confused during this time and you showed us that as long as we are focused in doing what we love we can all get past the dark times. 💪♥️♥️♥️
You’re an actual rockstar - I admire you and your honesty, style, and general badass-ness! Thank you for letting us be a part of your journey, you’re more inspirational than you know.
Rachel, you are amazing! I discovered your channel a Couple months ago, and i can’t get enough of them. I love you and everything you do! You are beautiful and have an awesome personality and mind. I love how honest you are in whatever process you are in, like when your home becomes a mess during a project-you keep it real and show it-or when you make a mistake on a project-you show it and make it apart of the learning process. And through it all, you keep on moving, finishing the project, getting it done, and going forward on to the next thing that you conquer with what you have learned. And now you are doing the same with your personal life. I applaud your courage and strength. I’m sure right now, at such an emotionally vulnerable time, you don’t feel strong, but you are so very strong. This video and project show how strong you are because of your grace with revealing what is going on and how you are working through it. Thank you for all the inspiration you have provided me. I am currently building some crazy monstrous floating shelves in my living room, and every time I get discouraged or stuck, I sit down and watch some of your videos to motivate me and keep me going! I even bought a freakin’ Miter saw!!! Thank you Rachel! Adelante!!!
You’re an incredible person and a role model to a lot of women. You deserve to be happy and sometimes life gives us what we need and not what we want ❤️ I’m sending healing your way and just know that this too shall pass ✨
The hummingbirds are just so symbolic in this video and your realness is so touching. Take strength from sorrow and grow, fly to newer higher horizons Rachel. I've been watching you for about a year now and so look forward to your make over's and DIY's, good luck in your new chapter of life and I look forward to viewing all your new content, stay strong x.
I just ended a long term relationship as well, and to help cope, I made this TH-cam channel to with my sister to try new things/experiences to get my mind off things. Watching you go through something so relatable to me and pour your pain into the shed gives me hope that everything will be ok for me too.

You have no idea how much this meant to me to watch. Having to validate my emotions in my personal life and the significant other, in contrast to what's going on in the world and it became so hard to feel what I wanted to feel without being vindicated for it, like my emotions were nothing and like I wasn't allowed to be going through something. But seeing you go through the almost exact situation I'm going through, it's given me so much hope and strength that even though the pain will take, what may feel like forever, to get over, it'll be worth it in the end to make sure that I am comfortable in myself and where I am and where I want to be in life and not have to feel guilty about it. Thank you so much for saving a life by showing your life. Much love 👊🏽
Rachel! My heart goes out to you. I also turned 30 and have gone through a painful break up about a month ago as well. Being 30 and starting fresh is such a scary thing but also so liberating as well. You honestly empower me and I am incredibly grateful for your vulnerability and honesty. You are amazing and I know you’ll head exactly where you need to be! You deserve the best. I love you! Let’s do this!
Even though I feel heartbroken that you have to go through this, you have proven how strong you are to all of us and it seems that this will be a good change for you. With that said, I feel lucky to be a subscriber and to continue to be here and support you no matter what chapter in life you're in. Lots of love Rachel :)
Wow you are truly an inspiration Rachel! Your courage to restart and be vulnerable in the process will no doubt encourage others going through the same thing. 8 years ago I walked a similar road when my marriage of 13 years ended suddenly. I poured my heartache into “DIYing” the place I bought when I moved out with my two children by my side, and creating a new place for us was a salve for my soul. I am now remarried to an amazing man who has shown me what it means to be loved completely. He’s also my mentor and has taught me how to use heavy duty tools and I’m loving it! Just wanted to share that with you because you are an inspiration to me to keep learning and trying new things and never be afraid ! I wish you all the happiness you deserve!
Thank you Ryan for releasing a great product as this [ Check Details Here?> *WoodBlueprints. Com* ]. Most of the plans I have imagined in my mind are put down on your woodworking plans. This is more like a genius job. I love it!?
Rachel I am so sorry for this transition time, I know what losing a relationship means and I have 4 children. But YOU encouraged me so much to believe that as a single mom I could do anything and after watching every single video you made and buying all the same power tools, I have enjoyed creating so many DIY stuff. I just bought a car canopy to be my workshop (as I can't afford a shed for now) and I'm about to build a stand-alone pegboard wall to have my tools by me. Anyway, remember the best is yet to come, and thank you for sharing your journey and your passion !!!
Thank you so much for sharing this very tender time for you. Part of this community is that we support you where you're at, and now we can send the blessings, support and encouragement in a meaningful way. Take good care, and be kind to yourself. With love, x
I found your channel when you put out the video for Cali's to go treat setup. It was so cool to see you have a bulldog too! So I watched mainly because of your pupper and when I started to woodwork and DIY your channel gave me inspiration. Seeing your whole process of building, messing up, finishing projects gave me, and surely others, the confidence to take the leap and not to be afraid of making things! Can't wait to see what you have in store next!
I’ve been following you on TH-cam for a while and I just want to thank you for your constant inspiration. Like many other of your subscribers, your TH-cam posts make our day. Keep doing what you can to make it through the day. You are loved by us.
My first thought: "She's gonna pass out in that hot box one of these days" ..then you went and made a window! So proud of you Rachel. Onwards and upwards. This shed SLAYS.
Love this and the realness, its refreshing and comforting as well. That stuff does suck but the way you're working through it whilst having the small breakdowns in between feels so real and unlike a lot of other content creators I see when stuff goes on. Love you so much Rachel and its so sick to see another badass woman throw herself into some diy to get a fresh start ♡♡♡
Tfs! I have been watching u for a little while and I soooooo enjoy watching your talent and skills come to fruition. Be at peace. You are absolutely loved. I must confess, I'm way past your age and energy level but given the chance I would like to still take on some, well a few, of the building challenges that u have. You encourage girls, ladies, women (and probably men) to get up and do it. Whatever "IT" is. So thank u Rachel Metz! Your humor, English lessons lol, mistakes, corrections, successes, team projects, puppies (I call all dogs puppies), etc are honestly blessings to us (I know they are to me). Keep it coming as u are led to. Be well, be safe, be u. Love u lady!💪👍❤🤗🙏 Such a nice job on your She-Shed👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Well Ms. Rachel, I am truly sorry you are going thru one of those most painful situations in life....It's good to let yourself feel it when the waves of pain come. And remember that when a wound heals ...it heals from the inside out & the scar tissue that forms is tougher than what was before....!! All the best ♥ Your SHE shed is bomb!!!
You are the epitome of a boss babe. Thank you for being vulnerable and sharing your next chapter with us. I am so inspired by you to push to be a stronger version of myself. Extremely grateful to be a part of your support community. Sending you and Cali huge hugs!
The strength that this has! Literally creating a space that gives you the tools to build and rebuild your life. There’s beauty that comes from the moments of pain. I’ve been there a few times myself and it’s NEVER easy but the way we’ll continue falling in love with ourselves until we find someone who can align with loving us in a way we deserve is unmatched. Thank you for sharing. ❤️
Im glad to see that in this tough time, ya gal Holly still has your back! True friendship is letting your bestie diy her heart out to make a new space feel like home in a tough time...
I'm so very happy that I found your channel. And you're right, women especially tend to think that because the sky is falling, we have to be superwoman and not just woman. And we have to provide space for both. We cannot expect to show up fully in any part of our lives if we're neglecting any part of our lives. I pray that as you go through this period of transition, you're able to take your 'be still and know' quote to a whole new level of self-awareness and reconciliation. I also pray that you and the tiny human are able to spend time together if that's something that you both want.
Happy birthday Rachel! I just started watching your videos this week and I can't get enough! You are such a badass boss babe!😎 So sorry to hear about The Break-Up but I am so blown away with your positive attitude and that you just keep moving onward and upward. You are really such an inspiration! 😁👍😘

interesting points ,if anyone else trying to find out backyard storage sheds plans try *WoodBlueprints. Com* Ive heard some decent things about it and my colleague got cool success with it.
Rachel, I'm decades older than you but I can honestly say I want to be like you when I grow up! Your strength is mind-blowing. After the breakup of a 4 year relationship, I couldn't eat or sleep, all I did was cry. I wish I had "known" you back then, you would have shown me the way. I'm sorry you're going through this but just know, lessons are learned from everything painful and you will come out on the other side a much better human. Hang in there and don't forget to share your feelings with family and friends! I hope you and Calli heal and your next chapter is even better than the last. I adore you and am so thankful for you and your videos. xoxo #girlswithtools #hustle
The beginning 😭 I had no idea 💔 You're such a strong woman 💕 If I had the money I'd probably do the same thing but for now I just let my kids make a mess & just take the time to clean everything & take all my energy out that way. Definitely helps keep the negative off your mind. We're here for you girl, we all go through hardships. Much love from Arizona 🌵🌞💕
The calligraphy of ''Be Still and know'' really spoke to me. I know this sentence with the ending being ''that I am God'' and I find peace with it. I want to say thank you for your authenticity and the portion of joy, beautiful editing and knowledge that you have given me through these hard times during quarantine. I pray, wish and hope that you truly feel that ''Be still and know... that you are Rachel Metz'' (with the joys and understanding you have discovered for yourself and well-being). Take care and thank you again for making so many beautiful content and letting us enter your privacy through those beautiful DIYs and great women strength (you are gym inspiration goals) ! I'll be rooting for you in my PJs, in front of my laptop with my bowl of oatmeal throughout your journey. God Bless.
Beautiful transformation and really love seeing you shine always. And what better way than being a bad ass DIYer creating your very own She Shed. Take care of yourself and can't wait to see more!
It sucks, but a fresh start it always good. You’re able to really get to know yourself more, figure out what really works for you and not changing for another person. I love you and your videos so much. I know you are a strong person and I hope this fresh start helps!
I am so sorry for what you are going through. It takes some time to heal, from experience, just... make sure you take time to breathe and allow yourself to cry when you need to.
Hope you had a good birthday weekend! Happy birthday sweety! I saw some beautiful videos on you Instagram stories. Sorry to hear about the breakup. I hope you get the support and love that you can give it a place even if it’s still fresh. It gonna be allright even if it doesn’t feel that way at sometimes. The best advice my friend ones gave me. Be kind to yourself and give it time. I’m happy to see that you are so positive and hope life will treat you good. Stay safe, stay strong (you are already strong 😘) and big air cuddle! 🥰 I always looking forward to your video’s darling keep up the wood work 😁
Great video content! Apologies for butting in, I would appreciate your opinion. Have you thought about - *WoodBlueprints. Com* It is an awesome exclusive guide for building better sheds and woodworking without the normal expense. Ive heard some extraordinary things about it and my mate at very last got astronomical success with it.?
I think pouring your grief into power tools to make beautiful things is very smart. It’s healthier than a tub of ice cream. I’ve always enjoyed your channel and I’m glad you shared this, it keeps you human my eyes. Grieve, breathe, accept and keep going.
I have loved watching your journey over the years and how much you have progressed in your DIY's and as a person. Cheers to this new chapter in your life 🖤

Shout out to the most beautiful 🌻 hardworking 🔧🔨 DIYer I have watched be both strong and vulnerable with us! I don't know you but I have seen YOU in these videos doing yo thang and always for someone else. Some people are there for a season or a reason. 2020 has been an ending for many. However, your good natured spirit has shown how it can be a beginning. THANK YOU 🙏🏾 for your strength, vulnerability, and humility. Thank you Rachel for teaching us to be as well as show others how to be strong women but above all great humans. If no one said it today, I ❤ you and glad you were born in this world 🌎 Beautiful People! Much love, One human to another human XXXX🙏🏾
I've been following you for quite some time now and honestly, you are original and truly inspirational. Watching this video even if I don't really know you I felt compelled to wish you a happy birthday and hope for new beginnings!!! There's a saying, that every obstacle is for a greater purpose and everything happens for a reason, so continue to look up high and inspire us all !!!!
I am so happy that I discovered you’re TH-cam channel because, when I will graduate next year I want to do something with interior. But how do you come up with you’re amazing ideas? (I’m still learning English so I’m sorry if my grammer is not that good) :)
i’m also going through a breakup rn, but hot diggity dang i don’t think i have the mental strength you have! it took me a day or two to process my emotions + get my bearings (and by then i wasnt moving in my room) but you??? wow???? you were able to pour out everything into moving and decoratingg your new workspace??? YOU ARE SUCH A GIRL BOSS RACHEL I LOVE U SO MUCH!! you’re such an inspiration!! i hope you’re doing better now! i hope you had a good meal today! i just...wow mam you’re so awesome :(
I absolutely adore you! You have inspired me so much. You’re the reason I started DIYing and doing woodwork in the first place. Your attitude and strength are brag worthy. Love from Texas!
Rachel! I’m so sorry to hear about your break up. You have been so inspirational to me and my projects and have been able to give me confidence to try new tools!! I know you can get through this!!
Whether you're done this before or it's your first attempt! - RyanShedPlans will help you decide which shed project is best suited for you, how to execute it and bring professional results every time. Visit => *WoodBlueprints. Com*
Seems good so far! Was easy to talk to about his My Shed Plans [Go Here=> *WoodBlueprints. Com* ]. Guided me in the right direction & helped me understand everything & in the end it was what I wanted
I have to say Miss Rachel I have watched some of your videos when I get a chance. Every F-in time you leave me speechless. Being a artist a little a DIY-er, I have fell in love with your mine and how you think up your projects. Always Classic,Timeless, Stylish,and always in VOGUE. Thank you! for bringing so much light during those dark times. You make a artist look forward to a brighter future for us all.
We’re on the same boat 💕💕. New beginnings and new chapters, and hoping nothing but the best for you!! You’re such a strong woman, thank you for being open and honest with us!! And I love your channel bc you show me that i could do it myself 💪🏽
Thank you for your awesome DIY instruction & for sharing your talents. Thank you, for being honest & true to yourself openly. & Thank you for challenging us all to do the same. Your honesty is empowering. I hope you feel it too.
Happy Birthday!! You are such an inspiration all the way to Yucatan in Mexico! Because of your videos I started fixing and remodeling my home without the fear of because I´m a woman, I cannot build things. Thank you for inspiring so many women around the world!
First of all Happy Birthday ♥️♥️. I came to comment before watching the video. I am so excited. And just wanted to say, continue doing what you’re doing. You’re meant to be a DIY-er. Ps Love you 💜
It's really inspiring to see how strong you are handling the whole situation. But remember that you don't always have to be strong. It's okay to also just be weak and not fully function for a while when you need to figure things out and gain energy for a new chapter in your life. Sending you hugs and also to your community. Reading all the loving comments here is great and empowering.
I love what you did! Your style shines even in a small space. I don't know much about your story, because I started following you recently, but as a 60 y.o. woman, I can see your strength and resilience, and "this too shall pass". Big hugs and keep shining!
I just want to say that that I’m thinking of you all the way from London. Your mantras are ways that keep me going in life and I know they will do the same with you ♥️ big love for Rachel Metz !!!
Wow!! I have been watching your channel for a few months and have been so impressed with your ability and creativity. I have been a creator for many years myself in all things wood metal and leather. Great to see how you are focusing on your work and keeping your emotions in your back pocket as you should. Your young, gorgeous, and have everything going for you. Thanks for sharing all that you do. Mazel tov and Happy 30th.
At least she has all her work documented on youtube, so if she does want compensation for all the work, then it's all archived here for her to use as proof.
Thats just an awful thing to say to someone who's still trying to process her emotional wellbeing. Once she goes past that, she can start worrying about this.
I know in my area cosmetic fixes have basically 0 effect on the resale value of the home. Appraisals are based on market value of the area. Even the fact that we had a new roof and siding didn't increase our Appraisal value. Cosmetic updates help a house sell quickly but not usually for more money
Sad to see that you’re going through a rough time, but keeping yourself busy always helps. I’m also so happy that you aren’t letting it stop you from doing what you love! We love you too and you’re an awesome creator!
Stunning transformation! I love your positivity, thoughtfulness, intentional approach to such a sad and challenging time in your life. You’re a wonderful example of growing through life experiences rather than just enduring them.
I don’t normally comment on videos but I couldn’t help it! I’ve been saving projects I’ve wanted to start on for years, but they’ve all seemed so intimidating to get started on. This has given me the confidence I’ve needed to just start on something and spread my creativity. Thank you! *takes sip of Truly’s and buys a circular saw 😅*
I love the attitude, girl! Hope to see more of you in the future! Sending some Asian love from the Philippines to you! Cheers for new beginning and opportunities!
I moved to Germany being very young. And fixing my rental was such a headache. So I asked my male friends to assist with different works. I somehow assumed that I couldn't doing it by myself. But now watching your videos, I know for sure that I CAN do everything (okay, not everything) on my own.
Happy Birthday! New Age, who dis? 😆 You always fill me with inspiration and determination to start a new project or look at a stale room in a new way. I literally stop any other vid I'm watching and immediately click over to you every time because of how amazing your content always is. ❤👍🏻 please give your puppers an extra snuggle from me!
so sorry about your struggles, may you find incredible happiness and success when you're ready. thank you for all the great tutorials, your aesthetic and showing us step by step how to bring it to life.
Congratulations Rachel and thank you for sharing. I know you don't have much of a choice but to share this very personal shift. I think it was very professional and nothing else needs to be said. Best wishes as you move forward and thank you for continuing to inspire with your amazing builds. Big hugs. ❤️
Happy Belated Birthday Rachel. It's silly to say but time will heal and your ability to focus on projects for your future does help. Hang in there, we're here with you in spirit.
I know we don’t know each other personally, but you got this lady ❤️ and everyone here has your back and sending major love 💕 Besides, if a man ain’t bothered to ask you to marry him after 7yrs, wtf is he doing in the first place lol
Dodged a bullet for Sure. We ALL give so much and get so little in return, all for the name of love. Whether you're surrounded by best friends and families and pets, or are completely alone, things can only get better from here on. We are made in pairs, we will find the right one who is worth the effort, time, love, struggle and commitment. ✊💜
I went through a HARD BREAKUP 15 months ago. I totally ghost the the relationship, I felt it was best. I saw strength in you the first time I watched your videos which helped me so many ways. Stay creative and keep inspiring. God Bless You on your beautiful new beginning. Much Love sis!
Words can’t not describe how much respect I have for you. It’s weird because I am not big on DIY or TH-cam and I came across one of your videos 2 weeks ago and I’m hooked. Not to mention it’s like you and are going through similar situations. I was engaged 2/14/20 only to be broken up 5/22/20 after 9 years smh... so now on to new endeavors and I want to build my own she shed, closets, etc... I’m new to the tools but have been talking with my bestie about tools. Can you please do another beginner friendly starter tool set? Also, since my down grade things are smaller for me too. Can you maybe do a small bedroom remodel. I truly appreciate you! Stay strong my dear and I’m praying for us both. This too shall pass.
Rachel, I can only immagine how hard it is this period for you. But this is one of the few videos that I felt you, I mean your person. This new headquarters is just yours! It is your beginning and I could feel it. It is adorable and it is you! Much much love. Sara Nena DIY
There might be a lot of things going on but they don't diminish your feelings and you're going through. You're very strong but even the strongest people need time to feel. Give yourself that time and be sure we'll be here to support you through and through!
I came across your channel during this whole quarantine and mannnn have I learned so much from you. You're such an inspiring and strong woman. The relationship you have with your family, friends, and especially Cali is so refreshing to watch. Wishing you only the best towards the next chapter in your life!
Woow, I just wanted to write...what great timing I am redoing our shed too...ofcourse I am not nearly as crafty as you and our shed needs to be a combo of multiple things...but then I only realized what you said so quickly in the beginning... I am so sorry that your personal life is changing so drastically...but after watching so so many of your videos, I know that you can get through this. Be strong! I love your new DIY space, it a real fantastic she shed...and spraypainting tools, who knew...think I wanna do this to mine too ;) You've got this!
Happy Birthday Rachel. I never saw this coming, but I know you can make good of it. You are so powerful. Use that to move forward. Prayers for comfort and new opportunities coming your way!
...thank you for your patience and love xx.
Love your content. I will wait lol as long as it takes. You rock. Happy belated birthday 🎂
We love you! Take all the time you need! Look forward to all of your videos! I. Absolutely stoked about this!
We love you 💖 take your time and we will be here to support you every step of the way
You go girl! I'm rooting for you
And happy birthday! I hope this proves to be a sweet new chapter in your life
We love you babe happy birthday
Watching this made me cry and smile, not Bc you made me sad, not at all. But Bc I know how hard it is to invest so much into a relationship and have to end it. But your strength and poise is unmatched. I love when you said you showed them gratitude but most importantly when you realized you get to design and think only of yourself. After the pain there is joy in finding you. It took me sometime but im falling in love with me and enjoying only considering my opinions likes and dislikes as well. In life in general. I can’t wait to watch you blossom and elevate more. Your soul is pure and your heart is big. Love light and peace beautiful 💛
Thank you for this - seriously.
This! And there's also a child involved. It takes a lot to take on and love someone else's child. You don't ever expect this to happen and I can only imagine how that feels.
Rachel, I hope everything works out for you! Here's to another chapter 🍻❤
Wow, well said. You really have a way with words!
This, 100%. I’m going through something so similar. It takes serious STRENGTH.🙌🏼❤️
Amazing comment. We love you Metzy 💙💙💙💙
This blew my mind, not only that you're going through some hard shit but that you're taking all that emotional energy and turning it into something amazing and functional to help you move on. I wish I was that strong, I hope you and Cali are doing okay, much love
Thank you so much Daniella xx.
I agree!! This is living/processing/healing done well. Filling your life full of positive steps helps so much. I can't imagine how you're feeling but each time you do something nice for yourself is bound to help :-)
Plus, still managing to stay humble & thoughtful of everyone's circumstances around you fills me with respect for you! Kudos Rachel xxx I wish you much love!! I struggle with anxiety & depression & get very agoraphobic & isolated, I love your style & commentary & gusto, it helps me so much to be able to 'spend time with you', thankyou so much for continuing to share yourself with us all xxx
A nice "I'm still good my followers got me" to ya!
Been doing the same thing 💖💜💜 using pain to improve
Never forget your worth and strength Rachel. You are truly an inspiration and you are incredibly strong. It’s ok to sometimes not be ok and go through hard sh*t but you will come out stronger. We are all here for you xx❤️
Thank you so much.
I support this message
Wow. I could already tell you were a strong person, but this is next level. I feel like your tether has been cut and we're about to witness you truly take off just like those hummingbirds. I'm so excited to see what comes next. What a goddess.
You put that perfectly! ♥️
@@thebeautyoflife327 I totally agree! I'm super inspired by Rachel sharing this and though I KNOW it's a tough time, you're right, I feel like she's just going to SOAR during/after this!!!! Thanks Rachel for being so open and vulnerable with us, while simultaneously thinking about those of us working through the complex racial issues at hand. So appreciated! Big hugs to you!!!!!
Totally. I've always been inspired by Metzy but this is next level for sure! Such a warrior 🏆
💖💖💜💜💜 agree
Reading this comment ten months later after she’s bought her own home, found her tribe, is flourishing in her health and new projects. I am so excited for her. It brings me a lot of hope
I know this video is 3 yrs old but when I was searching shed makeover yours came up. You have inspired me so much to do my shed. I'm at the beginning of my project. I need a new roof, floor and one side is rotten and the plywood has to be replaced. But in the time being I've cleared it out and trying to put my design together and you gave me so many great ideas. The paint job is beautiful, peg board genius, tools spray painted beautiful. Every detail you did my brain was racing like hmmmm I can do that. I'm a beginner at power tools but I know I can make my shed over to personalize my dream. Thank you so much for sharing. New subscriber and can't wait to go back and binge watch more of your videos. ❤
Going through a breakup right now too. I love you and feel everything you're feeling. Life is hard. Happy birthday beautiful; to better days ahead for us both.
We got this xx.
i’m on the same boat as you guys. breakups are so ugly and awful but (in my case at least) it often feels necessary. hope you guys are doing okay! i hope y’all had a nice meal today! cheers
Hon, my heart just sank hearing the intro. It's been so much fun going along with you on your journey so far, and while I'm glad you're looking to this new chapter as positively as you can and that things will work out for the best, I'm sure it's still really hard for right now. We all love you, and wish you the very best, no matter what twists and turns life may take. Happy birthday, and thank you for everything
I had to rewatch the beginning to make sure I heard that right. Honey your badass here is to new begging indeed. I think I’m heading towards the same road and hope to do it in class as your doing.
Thank you xx.
I rewatched it like 6 times thinking I missed something or that it was a flashback or something 😳
Alley Oop Yeah I was like wait what!! But I have to commend her because it’s not easy sharing your life and especially something so personal. We just gotta show her all of the love!!
I know. I screamed😩😩
@@rioandriver2575 SAME SAME SAMEEE
We obviously don't know the details, but the fact that you're able to stay gracious throughout such a significant life change speaks volumes of who you are as a human. Thank you for being a great role model and lady badass for us to look to. Wishing you nothing but happiness.
Happy Birthday, Rachel, I remember when I find this channel I was going through the most challenging time of my life, the loss of my two kids and I know is not similar at all. Still, I want you to know the God push up out situations because he wants better things for us and we don’t understand at all at first, just let him take charge because sooner than you know, you will look back and said that was nothing and I’m glad I’m when through all that and learned a lot from that situation. You’re a beautiful girl who deserves the whole world and nothing less. Stay focused and remain being you. You were my escape when my kids died, and you made my life way happier, and I started moving around the house every time I saw your videos. I wish you the best, and I know God has something beautiful planned for you in the future. We all love you, and we are thankful you share so much. God blessed you, smart, beautiful girl. Remember we all here anytime you need us ❤️
Omg I'm so sorry for your enormous loss. Losing a child must be the worse experience ever. I pray that God will look over you and comfort you.
AMAZING! I love how you didn't let a breakup set you back! And you've been able to put out some more amazing make overs and DIYs. I appreciate that you shared your struggles because a lot of us are feeling lost and confused during this time and you showed us that as long as we are focused in doing what we love we can all get past the dark times. 💪♥️♥️♥️
You’re an actual rockstar - I admire you and your honesty, style, and general badass-ness! Thank you for letting us be a part of your journey, you’re more inspirational than you know.
Rachel, you are amazing! I discovered your channel a
Couple months ago, and i can’t get enough of them. I love you and everything you do! You are beautiful and have an awesome personality and mind. I love how honest you are in whatever process you are in, like when your home becomes a mess during a project-you keep it real and show it-or when you make a mistake on a project-you show it and make it apart of the learning process. And through it all, you keep on moving, finishing the project, getting it done, and going forward on to the next thing that you conquer with what you have learned. And now you are doing the same with your personal life. I applaud your courage and strength. I’m sure right now, at such an emotionally vulnerable time, you don’t feel strong, but you are so very strong. This video and project show how strong you are because of your grace with revealing what is going on and how you are working through it.
Thank you for all the inspiration you have provided me. I am currently building some crazy monstrous floating shelves in my living room, and every time I get discouraged or stuck, I sit down and watch some of your videos to motivate me and keep me going! I even bought a freakin’ Miter saw!!! Thank you Rachel! Adelante!!!
You’re an incredible person and a role model to a lot of women. You deserve to be happy and sometimes life gives us what we need and not what we want ❤️ I’m sending healing your way and just know that this too shall pass ✨
Thank you so much Amy!
The hummingbirds are just so symbolic in this video and your realness is so touching. Take strength from sorrow and grow, fly to newer higher horizons Rachel. I've been watching you for about a year now and so look forward to your make over's and DIY's, good luck in your new chapter of life and I look forward to viewing all your new content, stay strong x.
I just ended a long term relationship as well, and to help cope, I made this TH-cam channel to with my sister to try new things/experiences to get my mind off things. Watching you go through something so relatable to me and pour your pain into the shed gives me hope that everything will be ok for me too.

You have no idea how much this meant to me to watch. Having to validate my emotions in my personal life and the significant other, in contrast to what's going on in the world and it became so hard to feel what I wanted to feel without being vindicated for it, like my emotions were nothing and like I wasn't allowed to be going through something. But seeing you go through the almost exact situation I'm going through, it's given me so much hope and strength that even though the pain will take, what may feel like forever, to get over, it'll be worth it in the end to make sure that I am comfortable in myself and where I am and where I want to be in life and not have to feel guilty about it. Thank you so much for saving a life by showing your life. Much love 👊🏽
For anyone who sees this i hope you have an amazing day and remember that you are beautiful, strong and loved xx❤️
🖤💋.
Thank you!!! Have an amazing day 🌈✨
Rachel! My heart goes out to you. I also turned 30 and have gone through a painful break up about a month ago as well. Being 30 and starting fresh is such a scary thing but also so liberating as well. You honestly empower me and I am incredibly grateful for your vulnerability and honesty. You are amazing and I know you’ll head exactly where you need to be! You deserve the best. I love you! Let’s do this!
Even though I feel heartbroken that you have to go through this, you have proven how strong you are to all of us and it seems that this will be a good change for you. With that said, I feel lucky to be a subscriber and to continue to be here and support you no matter what chapter in life you're in. Lots of love Rachel :)
Wow you are truly an inspiration Rachel! Your courage to restart and be vulnerable in the process will no doubt encourage others going through the same thing. 8 years ago I walked a similar road when my marriage of 13 years ended suddenly. I poured my heartache into “DIYing” the place I bought when I moved out with my two children by my side, and creating a new place for us was a salve for my soul. I am now remarried to an amazing man who has shown me what it means to be loved completely. He’s also my mentor and has taught me how to use heavy duty tools and I’m loving it! Just wanted to share that with you because you are an inspiration to me to keep learning and trying new things and never be afraid ! I wish you all the happiness you deserve!
Jesus only you could flip a sad situation into a whole a hustle. You go hun, lots of love in. Lots of love out.
Thank you Ryan for releasing a great product as this [ Check Details Here?> *WoodBlueprints. Com* ]. Most of the plans I have imagined in my mind are put down on your woodworking plans. This is more like a genius job. I love it!?
Rachel I am so sorry for this transition time, I know what losing a relationship means and I have 4 children. But YOU encouraged me so much to believe that as a single mom I could do anything and after watching every single video you made and buying all the same power tools, I have enjoyed creating so many DIY stuff. I just bought a car canopy to be my workshop (as I can't afford a shed for now) and I'm about to build a stand-alone pegboard wall to have my tools by me. Anyway, remember the best is yet to come, and thank you for sharing your journey and your passion !!!
Thank you so much for sharing this very tender time for you. Part of this community is that we support you where you're at, and now we can send the blessings, support and encouragement in a meaningful way. Take good care, and be kind to yourself. With love, x
Thank you! 🖤
I found your channel when you put out the video for Cali's to go treat setup. It was so cool to see you have a bulldog too! So I watched mainly because of your pupper and when I started to woodwork and DIY your channel gave me inspiration. Seeing your whole process of building, messing up, finishing projects gave me, and surely others, the confidence to take the leap and not to be afraid of making things! Can't wait to see what you have in store next!
I’ve been following you on TH-cam for a while and I just want to thank you for your constant inspiration. Like many other of your subscribers, your TH-cam posts make our day. Keep doing what you can to make it through the day. You are loved by us.
My first thought: "She's gonna pass out in that hot box one of these days" ..then you went and made a window! So proud of you Rachel. Onwards and upwards. This shed SLAYS.
And the doors!! So wonderful.
Love this and the realness, its refreshing and comforting as well. That stuff does suck but the way you're working through it whilst having the small breakdowns in between feels so real and unlike a lot of other content creators I see when stuff goes on. Love you so much Rachel and its so sick to see another badass woman throw herself into some diy to get a fresh start ♡♡♡
Tfs! I have been watching u for a little while and I soooooo enjoy watching your talent and skills come to fruition. Be at peace. You are absolutely loved. I must confess, I'm way past your age and energy level but given the chance I would like to still take on some, well a few, of the building challenges that u have. You encourage girls, ladies, women (and probably men) to get up and do it. Whatever "IT" is. So thank u Rachel Metz! Your humor, English lessons lol, mistakes, corrections, successes, team projects, puppies (I call all dogs puppies), etc are honestly blessings to us (I know they are to me). Keep it coming as u are led to. Be well, be safe, be u. Love u lady!💪👍❤🤗🙏 Such a nice job on your She-Shed👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I'm so sorry for the pain, I'm praying you find peace and joy in this next stage of life. Thank you for your honesty, blessings in your next chapter
Well Ms. Rachel, I am truly sorry you are going thru one of those most painful situations in life....It's good to let yourself feel it when the waves of pain come. And remember that when a wound heals ...it heals from the inside out & the scar tissue that forms is tougher than what was before....!! All the best ♥ Your SHE shed is bomb!!!
Thank you so much xx.
You are the epitome of a boss babe. Thank you for being vulnerable and sharing your next chapter with us. I am so inspired by you to push to be a stronger version of myself. Extremely grateful to be a part of your support community. Sending you and Cali huge hugs!
The strength that this has! Literally creating a space that gives you the tools to build and rebuild your life. There’s beauty that comes from the moments of pain. I’ve been there a few times myself and it’s NEVER easy but the way we’ll continue falling in love with ourselves until we find someone who can align with loving us in a way we deserve is unmatched. Thank you for sharing. ❤️
Im glad to see that in this tough time, ya gal Holly still has your back! True friendship is letting your bestie diy her heart out to make a new space feel like home in a tough time...
I'm so very happy that I found your channel. And you're right, women especially tend to think that because the sky is falling, we have to be superwoman and not just woman. And we have to provide space for both. We cannot expect to show up fully in any part of our lives if we're neglecting any part of our lives. I pray that as you go through this period of transition, you're able to take your 'be still and know' quote to a whole new level of self-awareness and reconciliation. I also pray that you and the tiny human are able to spend time together if that's something that you both want.
Happy birthday Rachel! I just started watching your videos this week and I can't get enough! You are such a badass boss babe!😎 So sorry to hear about The Break-Up but I am so blown away with your positive attitude and that you just keep moving onward and upward. You are really such an inspiration! 😁👍😘
Thank yuh Cheryl!!!

interesting points ,if anyone else trying to find out backyard storage sheds plans try *WoodBlueprints. Com* Ive heard some decent things about it and my colleague got cool success with it.
Rachel, I'm decades older than you but I can honestly say I want to be like you when I grow up! Your strength is mind-blowing. After the breakup of a 4 year relationship, I couldn't eat or sleep, all I did was cry. I wish I had "known" you back then, you would have shown me the way. I'm sorry you're going through this but just know, lessons are learned from everything painful and you will come out on the other side a much better human. Hang in there and don't forget to share your feelings with family and friends! I hope you and Calli heal and your next chapter is even better than the last. I adore you and am so thankful for you and your videos. xoxo #girlswithtools #hustle
The beginning 😭 I had no idea 💔 You're such a strong woman 💕 If I had the money I'd probably do the same thing but for now I just let my kids make a mess & just take the time to clean everything & take all my energy out that way. Definitely helps keep the negative off your mind. We're here for you girl, we all go through hardships.
Much love from Arizona 🌵🌞💕
The calligraphy of ''Be Still and know'' really spoke to me. I know this sentence with the ending being ''that I am God'' and I find peace with it. I want to say thank you for your authenticity and the portion of joy, beautiful editing and knowledge that you have given me through these hard times during quarantine. I pray, wish and hope that you truly feel that ''Be still and know... that you are Rachel Metz'' (with the joys and understanding you have discovered for yourself and well-being). Take care and thank you again for making so many beautiful content and letting us enter your privacy through those beautiful DIYs and great women strength (you are gym inspiration goals) ! I'll be rooting for you in my PJs, in front of my laptop with my bowl of oatmeal throughout your journey. God Bless.
Beautiful transformation and really love seeing you shine always. And what better way than being a bad ass DIYer creating your very own She Shed. Take care of yourself and can't wait to see more!
It sucks, but a fresh start it always good. You’re able to really get to know yourself more, figure out what really works for you and not changing for another person. I love you and your videos so much. I know you are a strong person and I hope this fresh start helps!
I am so sorry for what you are going through. It takes some time to heal, from experience, just... make sure you take time to breathe and allow yourself to cry when you need to.
Thank you!
just ordered the *WoodBlueprints. Com* guide for step-by-step videos and different plans to BUILD A SHED. they have some awesome plans in there
Being this strong speaks volumes Rachel, love the inspiration you continually bring to everyone thank you.
Hope you had a good birthday weekend! Happy birthday sweety! I saw some beautiful videos on you Instagram stories.
Sorry to hear about the breakup. I hope you get the support and love that you can give it a place even if it’s still fresh. It gonna be allright even if it doesn’t feel that way at sometimes. The best advice my friend ones gave me. Be kind to yourself and give it time.
I’m happy to see that you are so positive and hope life will treat you good. Stay safe, stay strong (you are already strong 😘) and big air cuddle! 🥰
I always looking forward to your video’s darling keep up the wood work 😁
Great video content! Apologies for butting in, I would appreciate your opinion. Have you thought about - *WoodBlueprints. Com* It is an awesome exclusive guide for building better sheds and woodworking without the normal expense. Ive heard some extraordinary things about it and my mate at very last got astronomical success with it.?
I think pouring your grief into power tools to make beautiful things is very smart. It’s healthier than a tub of ice cream. I’ve always enjoyed your channel and I’m glad you shared this, it keeps you human my eyes. Grieve, breathe, accept and keep going.
I have loved watching your journey over the years and how much you have progressed in your DIY's and as a person. Cheers to this new chapter in your life 🖤
Thank you Catie!

Shout out to the most beautiful 🌻 hardworking 🔧🔨 DIYer I have watched be both strong and vulnerable with us! I don't know you but I have seen YOU in these videos doing yo thang and always for someone else. Some people are there for a season or a reason. 2020 has been an ending for many. However, your good natured spirit has shown how it can be a beginning. THANK YOU 🙏🏾 for your strength, vulnerability, and humility. Thank you Rachel for teaching us to be as well as show others how to be strong women but above all great humans.

Happy birthday babe!! We love you and we hope you had the best day ever cause you 100% deserve it❤️❤️
Appreciate that xx.
I've been following you for quite some time now and honestly, you are original and truly inspirational. Watching this video even if I don't really know you I felt compelled to wish you a happy birthday and hope for new beginnings!!! There's a saying, that every obstacle is for a greater purpose and everything happens for a reason, so continue to look up high and inspire us all !!!!
I am so happy that I discovered you’re TH-cam channel because, when I will graduate next year I want to do something with interior. But how do you come up with you’re amazing ideas? (I’m still learning English so I’m sorry if my grammer is not that good) :)
And Happy Birthday of course🎊💕
It is all necessary DIY's

YOU ARE SUCH A GIRL BOSS RACHEL I LOVE U SO MUCH!! you’re such an inspiration!! i hope you’re doing better now! i hope you had a good meal today! i just...wow mam you’re so awesome :(

I absolutely adore you! You have inspired me so much. You’re the reason I started DIYing and doing woodwork in the first place. Your attitude and strength are brag worthy. Love from Texas!
Rachel! I’m so sorry to hear about your break up. You have been so inspirational to me and my projects and have been able to give me confidence to try new tools!! I know you can get through this!!
I dont have a shed at all but I really enjoyed watching this everything is so purposeful/practical
Thank you for watching!

Seems good so far! Was easy to talk to about his My Shed Plans [Go Here=> *WoodBlueprints. Com* ]. Guided me in the right direction & helped me understand everything & in the end it was what I wanted
I have to say Miss Rachel I have watched some of your videos when I get a chance. Every F-in time you leave me speechless. Being a artist a little a DIY-er, I have fell in love with your mine and how you think up your projects. Always Classic,Timeless, Stylish,and always in VOGUE. Thank you! for bringing so much light during those dark times. You make a artist look forward to a brighter future for us all.
Looking through these comments, it's all love for you. Keep your head up! Great video, as always
Onward and upward.
We’re on the same boat 💕💕. New beginnings and new chapters, and hoping nothing but the best for you!! You’re such a strong woman, thank you for being open and honest with us!! And I love your channel bc you show me that i could do it myself 💪🏽
Thank you for your awesome DIY instruction & for sharing your talents. Thank you, for being honest & true to yourself openly. & Thank you for challenging us all to do the same. Your honesty is empowering. I hope you feel it too.
Thank you for being her for me xx.
Happy Birthday!! You are such an inspiration all the way to Yucatan in Mexico! Because of your videos I started fixing and remodeling my home without the fear of because I´m a woman, I cannot build things. Thank you for inspiring so many women around the world!
First of all Happy Birthday ♥️♥️. I came to comment before watching the video. I am so excited. And just wanted to say, continue doing what you’re doing. You’re meant to be a DIY-er. Ps Love you 💜
Thank you very much xx.
It's really inspiring to see how strong you are handling the whole situation. But remember that you don't always have to be strong. It's okay to also just be weak and not fully function for a while when you need to figure things out and gain energy for a new chapter in your life. Sending you hugs and also to your community. Reading all the loving comments here is great and empowering.
Thank you xx.
I know it's weird but I feel proud of you! Happy belated btw!
Thank you, seriously.
I love what you did! Your style shines even in a small space. I don't know much about your story, because I started following you recently, but as a 60 y.o. woman, I can see your strength and resilience, and "this too shall pass". Big hugs and keep shining!
"single not ready to mingle" Wait what? I had to pause. Wish you happiness and all the best.💕💕
Same here. I was like "what?!?"
Exactly I was like didn’t she have a bf??
I just want to say that that I’m thinking of you all the way from London. Your mantras are ways that keep me going in life and I know they will do the same with you ♥️ big love for Rachel Metz !!!
The reason why I watch you is because you show everyone how hard you work. Your not fake, your original.
happy birthday!!! just wanted to let you know that we really appreciate all the work you do! love all your transformations🥰❤️❤️❤️
Thank you!
Living to DIY with Rachel Metz is your birthday June 17th so is mine omg your one of my biggest idols
Guys I am learning woodworking shed plans at *WoodBlueprints. Com* I recommend this website all you guys who are beginner or advance in woodworking
Wow!! I have been watching your channel for a few months and have been so impressed with your ability and creativity. I have been a creator for many years myself in all things wood metal and leather. Great to see how you are focusing on your work and keeping your emotions in your back pocket as you should. Your young, gorgeous, and have everything going for you. Thanks for sharing all that you do. Mazel tov and Happy 30th.
I hope he realizes how much equity you put in to his home. After 7 years of fixing the house up you deserve compensation.
At least she has all her work documented on youtube, so if she does want compensation for all the work, then it's all archived here for her to use as proof.
Thats just an awful thing to say to someone who's still trying to process her emotional wellbeing. Once she goes past that, she can start worrying about this.
I know in my area cosmetic fixes have basically 0 effect on the resale value of the home. Appraisals are based on market value of the area. Even the fact that we had a new roof and siding didn't increase our Appraisal value. Cosmetic updates help a house sell quickly but not usually for more money
She got experience and also TH-cam content.. that is more valued than some compensation
They literally just broke up and this is what you say? Yeah she fixed the house but got paid for it by documenting it on youtube and sponsorships.
Sad to see that you’re going through a rough time, but keeping yourself busy always helps. I’m also so happy that you aren’t letting it stop you from doing what you love! We love you too and you’re an awesome creator!
Happy birthday ❤️ Sending love and support your way 💖💖 Thank you for being so open and real with us 💙
Thank you xx.
Stunning transformation! I love your positivity, thoughtfulness, intentional approach to such a sad and challenging time in your life. You’re a wonderful example of growing through life experiences rather than just enduring them.
Oh my GOODNESS!! YOURE AMAZING!
Thanks Amber!
I don’t normally comment on videos but I couldn’t help it! I’ve been saving projects I’ve wanted to start on for years, but they’ve all seemed so intimidating to get started on. This has given me the confidence I’ve needed to just start on something and spread my creativity. Thank you! *takes sip of Truly’s and buys a circular saw 😅*
I love the attitude, girl!
Hope to see more of you in the future!
Sending some Asian love from the Philippines to you!
Cheers for new beginning and opportunities!
I moved to Germany being very young. And fixing my rental was such a headache. So I asked my male friends to assist with different works. I somehow assumed that I couldn't doing it by myself. But now watching your videos, I know for sure that I CAN do everything (okay, not everything) on my own.
🙏🏼👏🏼🖤.
Happy Birthday! New Age, who dis? 😆
You always fill me with inspiration and determination to start a new project or look at a stale room in a new way. I literally stop any other vid I'm watching and immediately click over to you every time because of how amazing your content always is. ❤👍🏻 please give your puppers an extra snuggle from me!
Wow thank you 😩🖤.
so sorry about your struggles, may you find incredible happiness and success when you're ready. thank you for all the great tutorials, your aesthetic and showing us step by step how to bring it to life.
🖤.
Hope you all the happiness in the new chapter.
Thank you xx.
Congratulations Rachel and thank you for sharing. I know you don't have much of a choice but to share this very personal shift. I think it was very professional and nothing else needs to be said. Best wishes as you move forward and thank you for continuing to inspire with your amazing builds. Big hugs. ❤️
The shed looks small on the outside but huge inside...well done with that!
Happy Belated Birthday Rachel. It's silly to say but time will heal and your ability to focus on projects for your future does help. Hang in there, we're here with you in spirit.
I know we don’t know each other personally, but you got this lady ❤️ and everyone here has your back and sending major love 💕 Besides, if a man ain’t bothered to ask you to marry him after 7yrs, wtf is he doing in the first place lol
Been there! Best decision I ever made. 🖤
Dodged a bullet for Sure. We ALL give so much and get so little in return, all for the name of love. Whether you're surrounded by best friends and families and pets, or are completely alone, things can only get better from here on. We are made in pairs, we will find the right one who is worth the effort, time, love, struggle and commitment. ✊💜
Breakups suck but I’m praying and claiming that your 30’s will be AMAZING! God bless Rachel 🖤
Rachel I love the she shed!!!! This too shall pass. Onward and upward.
Well said 👏🏽
I went through a HARD BREAKUP 15 months ago. I totally ghost the the relationship, I felt it was best. I saw strength in you the first time I watched your videos which helped me so many ways. Stay creative and keep inspiring. God Bless You on your beautiful new beginning. Much Love sis!
Your new shed looks so good and cosy it’s a great size too a perfect little studio/work place to film in 😊
Words can’t not describe how much respect I have for you. It’s weird because I am not big on DIY or TH-cam and I came across one of your videos 2 weeks ago and I’m hooked. Not to mention it’s like you and are going through similar situations. I was engaged 2/14/20 only to be broken up 5/22/20 after 9 years smh... so now on to new endeavors and I want to build my own she shed, closets, etc... I’m new to the tools but have been talking with my bestie about tools. Can you please do another beginner friendly starter tool set? Also, since my down grade things are smaller for me too. Can you maybe do a small bedroom remodel. I truly appreciate you! Stay strong my dear and I’m praying for us both. This too shall pass.
I'm here for you - we got this! There are SO many makeovers coming soon...including my small room!
I can't even focus on the diy. I'm still on what you just said!
Rachel, I can only immagine how hard it is this period for you. But this is one of the few videos that I felt you, I mean your person. This new headquarters is just yours! It is your beginning and I could feel it. It is adorable and it is you! Much much love.

I replayed the intro like 12 times. I thought maybe this was an old clip! I hope you are doing well! We love you 💖💖 happy birthday!
omg me too. I'm still replaying because I CANNOT believe. I don't even know them and I'm flabbergasted right now.
There might be a lot of things going on but they don't diminish your feelings and you're going through. You're very strong but even the strongest people need time to feel. Give yourself that time and be sure we'll be here to support you through and through!
Sheesh you’re so talented! I wish I knew how to do 10% of this.
I came across your channel during this whole quarantine and mannnn have I learned so much from you. You're such an inspiring and strong woman. The relationship you have with your family, friends, and especially Cali is so refreshing to watch. Wishing you only the best towards the next chapter in your life!
I'm proud for you and the step your making. Kudos to you. You've encouraged me in a big way. Thank you and God bless you
Woow, I just wanted to write...what great timing I am redoing our shed too...ofcourse I am not nearly as crafty as you and our shed needs to be a combo of multiple things...but then I only realized what you said so quickly in the beginning... I am so sorry that your personal life is changing so drastically...but after watching so so many of your videos, I know that you can get through this. Be strong! I love your new DIY space, it a real fantastic she shed...and spraypainting tools, who knew...think I wanna do this to mine too ;) You've got this!
Thank you Kristin! I hope you're having fun with your shed makeover.
@@LivingtoDIYwithRachelMetz yeah so much...you make me reconsider my entire color scheme ;)
Happy birthdayyyyyy! I love your vids so much and the shed is so cool
