These episodes are never long enough: I just want to keep watching you working on your projects! The bathroom looks lovely, and everything is so well thought out. I sympathise with Dean and his sleep problems, as I too wake between 4 and 5, but don’t get up - instead, I watch videos of other people doing things!!
That is so nice to hear (about the episodes not being long enough 😂) not about not sleeping! It really is a big struggle that Dean is trying to work through 😊
Both of you are Jacks of all Trades. The work you put in, and the amount of time you spend on that work, well, admirable is not a strong enough sentiment for what you are doing. But it's as close as this old lady can come. Good job guys!
Yes! The shower is a work of art. Those corner pieces would have me running screaming from the room. 😂More mathematical than you would think. Great job as always. ❤
Beautiful job on the new bathroom. Dean, my mind does the same thing yours does at night. You conscious or unconsciously think of all these things that need to be done. The more you try to stop thinking about those things, the worse it gets. I finally went to a therapist, and she actually helped me. I hope you consider doing the same. Especially with a baby on the way you will need your sleep. Hugs to both of you handsome teddy bears.
Ahh thanks for that! I did go to one but clearly it was the wrong one I think there has to be a compatibility between your therapist and yourself for it to be successful I just never got that
Dear Dean, your work ethic is top drawer, actually both of you are perfectionists. I was like you two in my younger years and now I'm 69 years old. Don't sweat the small stuff and see the forest for the beauty it is with all the little imperfections and not that one ugly tree with the split in the bark. Just like the mixed colours of the daffodils it's beautiful. Smartin up or I'll send over a bunch of slappers. Love you guys. ❤❤😊😊
I am so glad I found you when I did! Now I can be with you as you begin your journey as parents. I am sure you will be wonderful parents😊 Love from a great grandma on the Mississippi Gulf coast,U.S.A. ❤❤
It’s Tues-yay! Bathroom is stunning, most satisfying clunk when closing the door and top tip on removing headless screw. All in all another great episode. :)
Dean, based on what you guys said, meditation helps a person refrain from interrupting with the thoughts that have entered the mind while another is talking, but you’ve probably already heard that suggestion. Also it helps with sleep and overall bodily relaxation. Cheers
Fabulous bathroom - especially love seeing how you overcome any difficulties such as taping the edging tiles to stop them from drifting out of line. Super well done and thank you for sharing.
I absolutely adore your attention to detail. Your finishing touches are *chefs kiss. I always believe there's nothing wrong with trying to be perfect... But do remember you get to a point where your good enough is good enough because you're doing your best and it'll improve the more you do it. So I say great job, it's absolutely beautiful ❤
The bathroom is gorgeous!!! I totally understand looking at what you've worked on and seeing the imperfections. Nobody else sees them. Thank you for sharing!
If you want an Australian holiday, you could stay with us and do our bathroom just like that. Honestly, all jokes aside, that is classic, timeless and beautifully put together
I love how you are both so amazed when you do a beautiful finish on a job. You have accomplished so many beautiful rooms and still you find joy and amazement at a job well done. You are so talented at so many things and are such a complement to each other.
Your tiling efforts are perfect. I have previously tiled a splash back in my kitchen and my bathroom and can safely attest that I shall never be doing that again. Cheers Zoltán
You guys are too funny.😊 Some may call your work ethic as "perfectionism" others may call it "obsessive compulsive". Hehehe I realized it was the latter when you had the vacuum working as you go in one of the projects. I do the same when I am cooking. I wash dishes, pots and pans when their use is no longer necessary. (I don't use the dish washer. I don't trust it's cleansing usefulness.) 😅 BTW you two totally failed with the cheese cake debacle. It was funny though...😅 I love you guys! Thanks for all your hard and thorough work. ❤ Big hug to Danteo from uncle Jaime.
As a sufferer of chronic insomnia and a racing mind I feel your pain. I am sure you have probably tried many things but I did find that supplementing with Vitamin D3 made a huge difference.
I’m so enjoying watching you work together to create these beautiful rooms. Just one request … PLEASE WEAR A MASK when you are cutting marble or anything else. Even though you mostly do this outside so the dust blows away, surely there are particles that you inhale without knowing. Here in Australia we are stopping the production of composite (mixed rock) kitchen/bathroom benches because cutting them without the proper safety gear is causing people lung problems - similar to asbestosis. On a happier note, you are a great team and I can’t wait for your next video to arrive on my screen😊🦘
Tuesday is becoming my favorite day of the week ❤ You two are simply amazing. And Dean, can't help myself from suggesting Magnesium at night. It will calm down your nervous system.
even though this video posted months ago...placement of the handles at the mid point...means less warping on the door as you open it. Great bath. Thanks for posting.
So far I don´t liked old style architecture til up to your videos. Today I love every episodes with both of you guys. Maybe can help Dean`s better sleep : bevor bedtime write in one notebook your complete plan for tomorrow ready. Greetings from Germany!
Dean!!! You need to try to practice being in the present. I was like you always planning, having back up plans to my plans, basically over thinking. I had a full total burn out and my body crashed. It's taken 2.5 years for my health to change and 6 months after the shift for the better I'm still working on getting my body strength to being able to to basic things. I know you are busy, but try taking 10 minutes to do meditation, and if you can't quite meditate yet a couple minutes of controlled breathwork helps your nervous system. Love you guys! And love all the work you have done! Thank you for sharing a window into your lives.
I am so conscious of burn out , I have felt like I have been almost at that point a few times. Yes I am really going to try, thanks for thinking of me . Glad to hear you are doing better x
Hello Dean - i hear your pain of your mind not turning off when you're trying to rest. I often wake at night and my brain is making lists/solutions for Work problems. I often just send myself emails or in Teams have a running list and write down the latest thoughts and visualise moving it from my mind to the document. And that helps my brain let go. It takes practice but it works well for me. Maybe practice some breathing techniques too. Gosh you've got fabulous gardens, let that seep into your brain and push out the To Do list thoughts. You can do it!
thank you so much for the advice! I am certainly going to try that as I do make lists in my mind of what I need to do and that is one of the reasons why I can't sleep
Dean you need to do meditation to shut down.. Melatonin to sleep, takes a few weeks to work.. work, life balance. 😮😊 tip.. I lightly sanded my smoke detector cover and spray painted Matt white so blended with ceiling need to try do it outside see if you like it.. bathroom is amazing 😊
Tuesdays is my new Friday - My Tiny Estate You Tube. Dean, stick with the meditation, it's a 'practice' and it takes time, quite a lot of time for some. And good sleep hygiene pre bed helps a lot, no screens - and btw LOVE everything you guys do
Your videos are the highlight of my Tuesday! The bathroom looks phenomenal! The simple and high quality finishes give it a luxurious timeless look, even though it’s a smaller size. I really want to redo the tile in my bathroom but hearing Dean say how much he hates tiling gives me no confidence in myself! I’m also an overthinking insomniac (my problem is falling asleep). I’ve recently tried the tip of writing everything down before bed to get it out my mind. Can’t say if it works, I only lasted one night 😂
Hello again you lovely duo... WOW WOW WOW.. I got lost in the moment and felt I was gliding into my own new bathroom🤭... another great episode, with entertainment and info...Borja, every day is a school day. who knew ❤
A carpenter showed me years ago how to get a tight joint with the method you used except what he did was cut the adjoining piece at 45 ° first and then back cut that piece along the created profile with a coping saw. Works every time.
Enjoyed watching this episode of you both creating the bathroom. It's beautiful. Like that you installed the toilet on the other side of the sink and not by the shower. I love the finished touches of what Borja had done. Suggestion for Dean: get a journal. Write down the tasks that need done. This happens to me when I'm stressed. So hope that helps.
Dean you overthinking everything comes down to the fact that you don't make time for a coffee... And that's why when you're on holiday you say screw it and just power down. It takes some adjusting but it is possible to find balance. However I totally feel your pain not being able to have a restful nights sleep when there's a million things to do because I'm exactly the same. Hence when I feel it's time for that cup of tea, I enjoy it and try to switch off for 10 min. at least.
@@mytinyestate it's a daily struggle some days I win some days I don't. Especially when it comes to productivity and achieving things. But burnout is real and can affect you in more ways than you think. So sometimes Dean when you find yourself not being able to sleep imagine yourself being on holiday... allow yourself to shutdown and just say f#@ it, I deserve it. Turn over and let the warmth of Borja and the bed envelop you. No one is judging you, you deserve it. PS when it really doesn't work I put on rain or ocean sounds and I make the bedroom extra cold.. that usually does the trick ❤️
You need to get some "rub n buff". This allows you to change metal to bronze or antique gold in an instant. I have used it on knobs many times. You can use it on your toilet seat.
i have a tip for you, if you can't sleep.. put on all your clothes, go there, where you want to do the first work..take a blanket and a pillow with you and lie down on the naked floor.. and do nothing as show around..❤❤❤
To keep my mind from racing when I try to fall asleep, I focus my mind on a word game - going thru the alphabet think of one word movie titles (or those with proper names) or taking a six letter word and making the most words outs of combinations of the 6 letters. It usually works.
Dean - how you feel is very relatable. There are quite a few potential sources of the always thinking (& only relaxing on holiday) - ADHD & C-PTSD being the two I know best. But no matter the source, look into vagal nerve theory & somatic exercises to experience calm (eg box breathing). You will probably HATE it to start off with 😂 because initially trying to calm your nervous system feels awful. But it’s so so good for calming your nervous system. I found becoming a parent a huge motivator to find more peace in my body because kids are so finely tuned to what our bodies are telling them about danger and safety.
YES! The prices have gone up so much in the USA as well. Makes it next to impossible to get the jobs done. They know they got us because you have to do what you have to do.
That is right! I mean for us that we don’t pay for tradesmen as we do the job ourselves we think it’s super expensive so can’t even think about also having to pay for people on top of that !
👏👏👏 Beautiful job! Borja with the headband is giving Ricky Martin vibes. What was/is Borja’s job before you got the estate? Dean on the long run you’re gonna burn yourself out. Sleep is so essential for your health but also for the quality of your work(avoiding injuries and mistakes).
I think you both are amazing people and renovators. Every time you bring a room back to life it looks astounding. If I put my old counsellor hat on again Dean you need to find better coping skills to deal with your brain. If when you go on holiday and you can relax I suggest you schedule a week’s leave after each room to recharge yourself and Borga. I know it’s harder in the UK than here in Australia as we get more paid leave than the UK I think.
I was wondering if Dean sleeps better when it rains just because I have a hard time sleeping thinking about things that I shouldn’t be when I should be sleeping. So I . Keep up the great work and hope it all comes together the way you want.
I’m so worried about Dean. Please address the not sleeping and getting on hamster wheel of thoughts, worries and planning. Talk to your doctor about it. Please.
@@mytinyestate it takes practice, worth persevering. Find something that you relate to. I found waking my body up or in the eveningputtingmy body to sleep, from my toes to my head and concentrating on channelling positive energy to each part of the body. If I found myself losing concentration I would stop and refocus. Some days were easier than others and I improved as time went on. I slept better and woke refreshed and with more energy. Try a night time regime and start small. Good luck hope you can find something that helps you sleep.
Questions if you have time to answer: Where did you source marble tiles for your shower? Did you have them cut to a bespoke size so two fit perfectly side by side in the shower stall so you didn’t end up with messy little pieces?
Of course! It’s a company called Fired Earth, we love it, also the marble comes from Spain ☺️ When we designed the shower enclosure we had in mind the tiles that we wanted to use to minimise wastage ☺️
In the United States we water proof the shower area before tiling. Do you need to water proof the area first or is that just something we do in the states?
@@mytinyestate I'm in the US, but I went to my family doctor & she referred me to a psychiatrist. They asked a bunch of questions and put me through some testing. Funny enough, stimulant medication can slow us down and help calm our brains and bodies. That might not be it, but the same doc could give coping techniques and help sleeping 💗
I find it quite interesting that you've not waterproofed the walls that the tiles are going on, here in Australia it's a condition, otherwise the bathroom will not be certified as A OK!
If it were not for hard workers and perfectionists NOTHING would get done in this world. Well done. Bathroom is amazing.
Really appreciate this! Thanks ☺️

Thank you so much 💙💙
Well my day is now complete, 35 minutes of learning and loving with these 2 cute guys:)
You are the best thanks!!
Okay, that trick for getting out a snapped screw is fantastic!
Once you know it you will use it all the time 😉
Yes! The shower is a work of art. Those corner pieces would have me running screaming from the room. 😂More mathematical than you would think. Great job as always. ❤
Ahh thank you! Yes they were a challenge 😆
This little bathroom is pure joy. Just stunning. Less is definitely more 😊😊😊
For sure! We always go with that ☺️
@@mytinyestate I’ve been watching your journey since your episodes first aired in Australia.
I love this!

That chrome thing on the toilet seat could always be painted black to match the shower surround if you can't find a brass one.
That is a great idea!
When you think it can’t get any better….you guys rock it!!! You did a fantastic job!
We really appreciate this ☺️
It’s Tues-yay! Bathroom is stunning, most satisfying clunk when closing the door and top tip on removing headless screw. All in all another great episode. :)

I have yes! I have just never got around to trying it out ! 🥰
You are both doing an incredible job - everything you do is just beautiful. ❤
Thank you so much!
I love Borja's excited reaction to things

Fabulous bathroom - especially love seeing how you overcome any difficulties such as taping the edging tiles to stop them from drifting out of line. Super well done and thank you for sharing.

@@mytinyestate That's my motto in life and it's paying off 😉

I like how you have put it ☺️

Ahh thank you!
Your tiling efforts are perfect. I have previously tiled a splash back in my kitchen and my bathroom and can safely attest that I shall never be doing that again. Cheers Zoltán
Haha it’s not the most exciting of projects! If I could I would never do it haha

You need to get some "rub n buff". This allows you to change metal to bronze or antique gold in an instant. I have used it on knobs many times. You can use it on your toilet seat.
Brilliant thanks 🙏🏼

Beautiful job 😊 so happy to see you every week

That’s a good plan but it would be a dirty room 😂
My fave day of the week is when a new EP drops. Looking amazing guys! X
😍🥰🥰 that’s amazing to hear!
To keep my mind from racing when I try to fall asleep, I focus my mind on a word game - going thru the alphabet think of one word movie titles (or those with proper names) or taking a six letter word and making the most words outs of combinations of the 6 letters. It usually works.
Well I never heard of that one! I will try that for sure ☺️
You guys are a great team, I learn something all the time watching your vids 🙏
Aww that’s so good to hear 🥰
Stunning of course
🥰
Love you guys! I’m enjoying your videos soooo much. Thank you.
Thanks for watching!😘
Your bathroom looks spectacular, well done guys xxx
Thanks!

Love the shower ☺️
So beautiful as usual! Love you two and your design!
Aww thank you so much! Honestly such a simple design but lovely tiles ☺️
Beautiful! Great design LOVE the tile!

And I should add the work you are doing is amazing as is - absolutely blown away by it - even accomplishing half as much as you do would be wonderful
Thank you so much! I have never heard of box breathing! I will certainly look into it! Thank you so much for all the advice
Lovely bathroom! I’m enjoying every episode. Can’t wait for next Tuesday!
Thanks so much 😊 I hope you enjoyed this weeks episode
Looking forward to these Tuesday drops. Beauty bathroom. 💙💙💙
Aww thanks! 🤩
YES! The prices have gone up so much in the USA as well. Makes it next to impossible to get the jobs done. They know they got us because you have to do what you have to do.
That is right! I mean for us that we don’t pay for tradesmen as we do the job ourselves we think it’s super expensive so can’t even think about also having to pay for people on top of that !
👏👏👏 Beautiful job! Borja with the headband is giving Ricky Martin vibes.
What was/is Borja’s job before you got the estate?
Dean on the long run you’re gonna burn yourself out. Sleep is so essential for your health but also for the quality of your work(avoiding injuries and mistakes).
Ricky Martin? I wish I looked like Ricky! 😂 I worked in real Estate, and before that in retail ☺️
Well done, brothers, you have done a fantastic job!

Try Rub'n Buff to change the toilet name plate to brass. Hope it's available to you in the UK. Love your channel!
We have it in the uk! I just bought it from you advise! Fingers crossed it works ☺️
Stunning ❤
Thank you! 😊
Beautiful job guys. Maybe consider a shower niche next time to keep bottles off the floor. I’d have told you sooner if you asked. 🩷lol
Ohh yes we have found something good on amazing ☺️
I’m new to your videos and enjoy every moment.
Ahh love it thanks!!
Looking wonderful. I also have one of those brains. I now write a list and get everything out of my head.... snzzzzzzzzzzzzz 🙂
Does it work for you?
@@mytinyestate Completely. It's solved the problem. Good luck
Beautiful!
😃🥰
Loving these videos! P.s Borja we know you’d be far more dramatic if something was wrong 😂
Hahaha absolutely! 😂
I was wondering if Dean sleeps better when it rains just because I have a hard time sleeping thinking about things that I shouldn’t be when I should be sleeping. So I . Keep up the great work and hope it all comes together the way you want.
Well if it rains then he is thinking if there are any leaks, if he has left any tools outside 😂😂 but I think once he falls asleep he does sleep longer
i have seen an interior designer on TH-cam, Alexandra Gater, use gold nail polish on hardware!
Never heard of that! Brilliant idea!
Visual lists, calanders, ticking things off lists will also help calm the mind
Tick tick and tick hahahaha and yes it does 🥰
Beautiful bathroom! But I need to know did Dean manage to get the snapped bit out from under the tile?
He did!! 😂 he was at it for a good 20 minutes
I’m surprised for the vanity you didn’t use a vintage nite or side table. Too much work I suppose. Great job!
We were certainly working with very restricted measurements ☺️
Great video 🎉
Thank you 😁
I think my brain works like Dean’s brain. And it’s getting worst with age. But I like sleeping so much!
I like sleeping when I can too 😆🥰
Stunning work boys😍😍😍super sexy bathroom, I love the marble so💜
Ahh yay thanks
I’m so worried about Dean. Please address the not sleeping and getting on hamster wheel of thoughts, worries and planning. Talk to your doctor about it. Please.
Thank you! I have tried everything possible, I know that when we have less things to do my brain will allow me to sleep more
I don’t know if CBD gummies are legal in England. A lot of people say that they really work well to assist in sleeping.
I went through a period of not sleeping and my brain racing. I revisited meditation and it worked for me.
Meditation doesn’t work for me, I tried but I keep thinking about next things to do
@@mytinyestate it takes practice, worth persevering. Find something that you relate to. I found waking my body up or in the eveningputtingmy body to sleep, from my toes to my head and concentrating on channelling positive energy to each part of the body. If I found myself losing concentration I would stop and refocus. Some days were easier than others and I improved as time went on. I slept better and woke refreshed and with more energy. Try a night time regime and start small. Good luck hope you can find something that helps you sleep.
thank you! that is super helpful! I think I also need less screen time and as you say have some time to calm my brain down before going to sleep
Hi there, can you tell me where this vanity unit is from please?
Questions if you have time to answer:
Where did you source marble tiles for your shower? Did you have them cut to a bespoke size so two fit perfectly side by side in the shower stall so you didn’t end up with messy little pieces?
Of course! It’s a company called Fired Earth, we love it, also the marble comes from Spain ☺️
When we designed the shower enclosure we had in mind the tiles that we wanted to use to minimise wastage ☺️
Did you use Fermacell to form the walls of your shower?
I don't know what that is, so I am going to say no
Looking good x
🤩☺️☺️
In the United States we water proof the shower area before tiling. Do you need to water proof the area first or is that just something we do in the states?
It’s not a requirement here if you use a shower tray
So gorgeous! Thank y'all for sharing with us 💗 Dean, have you ever been tested for ADHD? The constant thoughts can be a type of hyperactivity.
He nevers has tested, how do you test for it?
@@mytinyestate I'm in the US, but I went to my family doctor & she referred me to a psychiatrist. They asked a bunch of questions and put me through some testing. Funny enough, stimulant medication can slow us down and help calm our brains and bodies. That might not be it, but the same doc could give coping techniques and help sleeping 💗
I am really surprised that you don’t have to have a waterproofing applied before you install the tiles
we do when there is no shower tray
I find it quite interesting that you've not waterproofed the walls that the tiles are going on, here in Australia it's a condition, otherwise the bathroom will not be certified as A OK!
Oh that’s interesting!! Waterproofing is only ever done when you do a wet room, if there is a shower tray there is not a need
