Dude, I’ve been sewing for years, and a thing you don’t realize is that those cushions will become thinner over time. They will also become a little bit less comfortable in that way as well. The fact that you started out a little extra thick will only help you in the long run.
YOU DID AN AWESOME JOB I AM A 58 GREAT OLD WOMAN I 1ST SAY I AM NOT YELLING WITH CAPITALS I HAVE M.S. MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS USE CAPITALS BECAUSE IT GAVE ME OPTIC NEURITIS POOR VISION. BUT BEFORE THAT I CAN'T EVEN SEW ON A BUTTON NOR MY MOM BLESS HER SOUL. MY DAD COULD AIR FORCE BACK THEN THEY TAUGHT EMERGENCY SEWING FOR CLOTHES AND WOUNDS. BLESS HIS SOUL. BUT EVEN THOUGH YOU DIDN'T SEW. YOUR TALENTS ARE AMAZING LIKE YOUR BROTHERS. BEEN WATCHING BOTH OF YOU FOR A LONG TIME JUST DON'T COMMENT OFTEN. MAY YOU BE BLESSED WITH JOY HEALTH AND SALVATION YOUR WHOLE FAMILY. YOU NEED TO SPREAD YOUR JOY WITH A MATE MY DEAR. LOVE YOU LIKE A GRAND MA KATHLEEN
Hi Max and Occy. Well done on all the changes to the house so far. I honestly thought that you were going to hand sew the cushions together. When I saw the staple gun in your hand, I thought, what a genius! 😅 Love the benches, kitchen drawers cushions, you now bed and of course the movie projector. Lots of things goingnon at your place 👌 Don't care what you renovate, it all progress. Happy birthday to the adorable Occy for next week. Love that dog. 🎉🥳💛 See you both next time. Take care of yourself, Max 😘💛
You might also enjoy his previous channel, "Max & Lee" where he, his ex-girlfriend & Occy, traveled from Canada to South America. However, they started their channel in Mexico so they only captured Mexico to Argentina I believe if I remember correctly. Those videos are super fun, they captured absolutely beautiful footage & of course they're very entertaining. Hope that helps with some much needed distraction while you recover. Get lots of rest & have fun traveling vicariously through them.😊 Wishing you a full & speedy recovery.❤
When you asked 'spidey' if he was ready for the movie, omg, I cracked up! Thank you for the laugh. Love the bench and that you are making so many things yourself. I am 73 and still make things...although my kids worry about me using saws now, lol. Gramma hugs to you and Occy. Love your videos!!
Hey Max, I’m a 28 year old qualified roofer that would be more than happy to help you on any future projects free of charge. Keep up the good work mate! Love it!
I don't often comment on videos but really love your channel. This may seem silly, but I really want to thank you for showing the reality of living off of only two electric outlets. It really helped me feel less alone in my extension cord filled house. I've been living like this the past year and while it is comical much of the time and gets the job done, it's also inconvenient and a reminded of how abnormal my life is at the moment. I purchased a semi off grid small cabin to turn into my home around the same time that you got your property. I also have an older large dog as well :) and had a lot of shit hit the fan as far as unforeseen issues with the house as well. It has been really nice watching your channel and feeling a bit like I'm not alone in this, especially on all the messy chaotic challenges that come up. And it's inspiring to see you work within a budget and find ways to still get the "bougie" touches over time. It helps me keep up hope that while I am on a super slow timeline due to a tiny budget because I am disabled by my mental health struggles, it doesn't mean that in time the good things won't happen. It'll get there and all the elbow grease helps in the long run. I appreciate your tenacity, your values, and the honor you bring to what you do. You're a really good person Max and that shines through in your videos. You bring such a loving honorable presence to youtube and I really appreciate that about you and your content. Thank you for helping me feel less alone in all the struggles that come up and the oddities we live with to get by until we can get them right in due time.
Thank you for putting yourself out there with such a thoughtful comment with insights on everyday struggles. I wish you the best of luck with bettering your home and your health one day at a time ❤
Your sharing was very candid and a pleasure to read. I know many people that live similar to you, it more common in my area. People realise that one doesnt have to have everthing at once and a designer house to live and be happy in. I think living and making do with what one's got builds resiliance and character. Well done! Warm Regards from Aus
Brilliant. Big cuddles to Occy. I am having a proper coffee in bed, looking out onto a very calm Bass Strait, a red sky in the East, and our 14 year old Labrador snuggled. Perfect.
Max! My father in law has a circular holiday home in the west of Ireland! He used the theory of pi to figure out how many tiles he needed for the fully circular toilet in the centre of it! ❤
My wife and I were just talking about how happy we are for you. And happy for how much you have grown as a homeowner and you taking on this project by yourself! Mate your are doing a great job! Keep going! Much love and respect for Occy too!
Good to see Occy working so hard on testing the napping spots around the house. Good to see you providing more comfy spaces for him to test.. Hardest working dog on TH-cam. Speaking of dogs, please give Oso & his family some big love from all of us.❤
There is no such thing as a favorite inside vs outside. it is about what you do on this paradise of a property. What you make of it, how you thrive, develop things and make the place your and Occys happy place. Your home. I love it. Every inch, inside out. Thank you for sharing your heaven on earth!
I needed to hear your “Be kind to yourself” today. Because I was not, and frankly, haven’t been nice to myself. If only you’d release an audio of that reminder, I’d put it on a daily alarm.
My big dog, just slightly larger than Occy, is turning 15 in about 6 weeks! He's half blind, half deaf, and can't stand up by himself. He has always been way less active than Occy is, but he's doing well. I see many years for Occy.
hilarious! (head vs light count) aww...no more filming until completed task - but I love the unexpected comedy! thank you Max, informative, educational and very entertaining!
Occy Spidey projector new bench and drawers!!! You have everything you need!!❤️🌴🕷🐶 if only you can give us an episode every week 😩😩😩 every Sunday I look forward to seeing you and Occy then you’re not there in my lineup 😔😥 I really miss watching y’all every week.
I confess that at first I laughed at you building "Van Furniture" in your house, but in the end, I liked the idea of having that little extra storage space. Love it!
Exactly! That's what I thought too! Max is building the kind of bench in his house that he built in his van. But, hey it worked! And it looks very cool -- both fashionable and practical.
Absolutely loved this. You are truly inspirational, creative and really hard working. Easily one of the best channels on TH-cam. It mixes nature, DIY projects and doggy footage. Thanks for sharing your journey with us and always reminding us to stay cool humans. ❤
I actually laughed out loud at the quick little musical… da dum.. when you *almost* hit the light vs. head count for the second time. I often watch videos from other channels on 1.5 or even 2x speed. But it’s the moments of subtle humor you slip in that always keep me watching all your videos on normal speed so I don’t miss them.
''Spidey, are you ready for the movie?'' My heart just dropped!😂 Enjoying your videos more and more. Love to see your dreams/ideas come to life together with Occy ❤
Happy Easter, Max and Occy. Happy birthday to Occy. 🥰 Max, l am thoroughly enjoying the diversity of your channel. The inside and outside projects are fabulous. The dining area looks terrific, and l love green and white colours. The projector is very cool. Seeing Occy's response to the animals that he is watching is beautiful. 😊 See you both in the next video. 👏
Awesome show. Great bench seats love the color. The cabinet makeover is terrific. Love Occy moments as he is doing his supervising. Your home is absolutely beautiful inside and out.
I've been watching your videos for quite awhile now. I can't tell you how calming, happy and sane they make me feel. Love your emphasis on kindness and that youare spreading same. Started watching for van life content but now your channel is my go to for relaxing and calming down whether you and Occy are in the van or not.
Hey Max, how come you don’t have screens on the doors and windows to keep out the creepy bugs and other little creatures? They’re easy to make and where you live there’s so many hairy creeping ‘things’ I’d want to keep them out. Love your channel friend.
Hi Max and Occy. I'm new to your channel. My sister introduce your channel to us. Just dropped by to say that you're doing great. With all of your projects. Trust in yourself. The both of you are truly the best. Enjoy your life in the forest. I truly wish I could live in the forest with my sisters, mom and our 🐈🐕 too. Anyway..have a blessings filled week. 😊👋
Happy 13th Birthday to one very special, cute boy! You and your "Daddy" are both adorable ;) God bless and keep you both happy and healthy in your wonderful rain forest hideaway.
Because the Bench was Higher than expected, Max made those wooden blocks to install on each Leg of the Table to increase it’s overall height allowing someone to sit on the Bench to fit their Legs under the table-top comfortably.
Absolutely amazing job on the banquette and the drawers look like new. You always crush it Max. Love seeing Occy too. You always do a great job on editing!!❤❤🐾🐾
Inside, outside who cares. I am here to watch you and Occy have your best lives and of course live vicariously in the rainforest watching your vlogs. Thanks for the hard work putting them together ❤
Totally agree, Max has the best content and videos..indoors or out! And so awesome to see how much time and attention Max is giving Occy as he ages; he’s a wonderful dad.
Trying to recover from that spidy 😮 and your casual response to it 😅 Love you and Occy soo much. Also a side note...next time you talk with Eamen and Beck...please tell the they are soo loved and missed but understand them taking this time with their sweet baby girl❤❤❤😊
The house just keeps becoming more homey and more you Max. Love these interior projects just as much as the outdoor ones, so I love the idea of alternating between the two. Great work! Big ❤️ to you and King Occy.
Keep your list of indoor and out door projects and let the weather and your desires drive the order. You know you can’t get too attached to a set plan and when you have a plan for when things fall through, it’s much less stressful. Hugs and ear scritches for Occy!
I hope you take comfort that you DID make your home more homey in time for the monsoon season so that you and Occy didn't have be stircrazy with ONLY the van's space to putter around in. It's great seeing how you've given Occy the wonderful reward for his golden years of a permanent home- after he'd spent his entire life faithfully and patiently being the best 'van dog' possible! Also, I've never forgotten how great it was seeing that him reunite with you after nearly a year of being on separate continents due to the worldwide affliction- with him JUST as eager to reunite with you and not having the slightest amnesia or resentment for the unavoidable separation! Take care!
Famous last words: "How hard could it be?" I just replaced two bathroom faucets after saying those words. I got it done after cramped spaces and a lot of cussing. Your reno appears about the same but came out FAB!! Occy now has a new lounging spot. 🤣😂
Wow, those ugly drawers look wonderful! Great job on the bench (aside from that little back part). As far as interior vs exterior, both are equally interesting to me. I love seeing what you are doing with your place.
For the renters watching who want a banquet style seating area that is not attached (or damages) the walls. Grab a couple of IKEA 1x4 Kallax units and add the infill doors for storage. Perfect for the banquet seat base. I had Clark Rubber also make outdoor fabric covers (zipped) seats so I could take them off if I ever needed to wash them. During the now 18 months of use, I clean them with a fabric vacuum cleaner and spot clean when needed. Outdoor fabric is perfect for high traffic (bum on seat) areas 👌
Max you are making some real quality changes to your homes interior. There is no quit in you and you get projects done. I hope your guests enjoy your new dining area. Hugs to Occi. Thanks for the great content.
I swear Oc was looking fr his step stool when you laid down on the bed!❤ He is the king!!!! I love how much you put him in, always delightful! BTW when does he get a dog door?
Grey door looks good, brass and insect guards awesome. You have been a great Ryobi salesman. We’ve gotten a mower and whipper snipper (name?) hopefully will enjoy using as much as you. 😊. Bench seating looks awesome. You never know what you can do unless you try. Please give Occy a pat. ❤K
Another great video Max and Occy, thank you for sharing. Great job on the covering of the cushions, and I love the colour, it fits in to your home beautifully. So good to see Occy looking so well. Keep on pressing on with the Renos, your home is looking really good. Stay safe and be kind. Jay
The person that helped us build our natural material, reclaimed timber ‘one pointed trapeze-playroom’ for my child care helped an 80 year old woman build a circular home, insulating it with ‘clay slurry drizzled on straw that was smashed down between plywood forms framed with rescued barn timbers’. An old building method borrowed from Germany. I have no idea what materials would be used in a rainforest but I bet a little research would bring you ‘bloody good’ results!Good luck on your future build❤
Max love all your projects inside and outside. Bench looks great as does your new home.looks lovely …give Occy a big hug and a kiss from me … I’ve got my collies on ‘yumove’ works great on stiff joints keep smiling xxx
I really like how the seating nook turned out. The dark green fabric against the white is amazing. And the rebuilt kitchen storage was brilliant! What a great idea to reuse an existing piece for storage. As always give that lovely Occy a few extra cuddles and keep one for yourself. Happy Easter! 💜🐰🐣
Love the color of the cushions! They look great with the table! As someone else pointed out they will flatten out some over time. I enjoy both the insand outside projects. Love and hugs to you and Occy❣️🐾🐾
I had to laugh, I thought I was the only person to say, "How hard can it be?" I love your bench; I would love to have a little bench in my breakfast nook corner. Your fabric selection is perfect. The repurposed cabinet is so nice, looks brand new and functional for your kitchen. OH and that is a HARD NO - to "Spidey"🫣 Thanks for the beautiful video and of course the king always gives me a big smile. Just love Occy.
Great job, Max! The bench seats with extra storage was done beautifully! Also the kitchen cabinet you fixed up was Aldo wonderfully done! Nice big bed now, having it off the floor away from creepy crawlers is definitely a plus! And how awesome is that projector TV! This was an absolute joy to watch!🌟
Happy Easter Max and Occy. Max the bench looks amazing and the storage cabinet also. You are becoming quite the DIYer. Occy your a fantastic supervisor.
Dude, I’ve been sewing for years, and a thing you don’t realize is that those cushions will become thinner over time. They will also become a little bit less comfortable in that way as well. The fact that you started out a little extra thick will only help you in the long run.
👍
Yes....definitely!!
Great info and I’m sure will go along way to calming Max down, Occy on the other hand is probably already content with the current cushions 😂
Very true
100%. There's nothing more uncomfortable than sitting on a thin chair cushion.
YOU DID AN AWESOME JOB I AM A 58 GREAT OLD WOMAN I 1ST SAY I AM NOT YELLING WITH CAPITALS I HAVE M.S. MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS USE CAPITALS BECAUSE IT GAVE ME OPTIC NEURITIS POOR VISION.
BUT BEFORE THAT I CAN'T EVEN SEW ON A BUTTON NOR MY MOM BLESS HER SOUL. MY DAD COULD AIR FORCE BACK THEN THEY TAUGHT EMERGENCY SEWING FOR CLOTHES AND WOUNDS. BLESS HIS SOUL. BUT EVEN THOUGH YOU DIDN'T SEW. YOUR TALENTS ARE AMAZING LIKE YOUR BROTHERS.
BEEN WATCHING BOTH OF YOU FOR A LONG TIME JUST DON'T COMMENT OFTEN.
MAY YOU BE BLESSED WITH JOY HEALTH AND SALVATION YOUR WHOLE FAMILY.
YOU NEED TO SPREAD YOUR JOY WITH A MATE MY DEAR.
LOVE YOU LIKE A GRAND MA KATHLEEN
omg - that 🕷
I know!
Nothing like a Huntsman to share a home with. Hope he enjoyed the movie !
I can't sleep now...
I came to the comments after seeing the 🕷️ 😭 omg no! lol
Maybe a baby Huntsman…Oz has serious spider diversity.
11:01 Occy’s like dang I need some stairs up to the bed now 😊😊
I was also thinking an on ramp for the bed would be a smart idea!
In scotland we mostly have spiders the size of a thumb nail ..... not where they could grab your tv and run off with it !😂😂😂😂❤❤
😂😂😂😂
And not only that they can walk across your ceiling at night imagine waking up to that, by the way that one was relatively small.
@@sharonhart8360 omg 🤣💥💥💥

You ask indoor or outdoor projects... doesn't matter. All your videos are great. Natural and entertaining.❤
Thank you Shelley 💛
The Kardashian clip cutting the cucumber was hilarious 😂😂
“First king’s over there taking a piss.” 😂😂😂
I’ve just “discovered” you and binged episodes while recovering from a surgery. You are such a lovely human and kind soul. Much love!

I almost fell off the bed when I saw that spider!! lol. I instantly had shivers.
I think the most fun is watching you and Occy overcome struggles, grow and seeing you happy. Outside or inside doesn't matter.
Thank you heaps 💛
Occy looked just like a puppy when he looked through the door at the beginning 🥺
Building a bench indoors is a lot better than building a roof during all of those rainstorms😅
Ha, honestly! Hopefully the sun will stay out this week 😅
@MaxandOccy I felt for you during those rainstorms. I thought "let the man finish his roof in peace!"😆
Hey Max, I’m a 28 year old qualified roofer that would be more than happy to help you on any future projects free of charge. Keep up the good work mate! Love it!
I don't often comment on videos but really love your channel. This may seem silly, but I really want to thank you for showing the reality of living off of only two electric outlets.

Brilliant. Big cuddles to Occy. I am having a proper coffee in bed, looking out onto a very calm Bass Strait, a red sky in the East, and our 14 year old Labrador snuggled. Perfect.
That backward fabric is something Eamon would have done😂 it’s time for a ‘Uncle Max chat with Eamon and Bec!

I couldn’t love Occy more. What a life he has led. He’s blessed to have you as his fur Daddy!!

Thanks Suzanne 💛
Whatever you do, I am cool with. Inside or outside, I am here for the adventure!
Occy the king taking a piss, and spidey being ready for the movie are comedic gold.
Love the interior designing❤❤
I dunno - is inviting a spider in for movie night in the most venomous place on the planet a GOOD idea?! lol
Ha honestly! 😅
Happy 13th birthday King Occy 🎉❤
I love when animals do the little paw twitches while they’re dreaming, it’s got to be one of the cutest things ever!
💛
Omg 🕷️ I nearly died 🤣 that was one huge spider 🕷️
You might want to get a GPS tracker for him. If he gets confused and wonders off, you might be able to find him through the tracker.
Apple air tags work well for dog tracking
Oh, I thought you meant Spidey 😉
Those things are like having a modem strapped to your body..emfs are so toxic.
Have studied this..
@@Jaya-zn7vr 🤣🤣🤣
I use an AirTag also. Amazon has tag holders for dog collars.
I love Occy's contribution to all projects 😴😂❤
Ocster’s gonna be 13 😘🐾❤️, his little paw twitches are adorabubble 💕.

Beautiful old boy Occy. We have an 11 year old pup and they become more special with every passing year they share their love with us ❤
Don't forget to hang dried lavender under the bed. That will keep spiders and scorpions away.
Doesnt work on huntsman or wolf spiders. Even the pest sprays dont work on them.
@antoniabaker7770 true but adding pitcher plants outside should stop those

Livin like royalty now!!! A real bedroom with a king bed!!!
Happy birthday, Occy! Have you thought about getting Occy a little brother that he can teach all of his wisdom to? That would be sooo cool to watch!
I suggested that a while back, would help ease the pain when Occy does eventually depart.😢
A younger dog would want to play when Occy wants to relax. I think he would be upset that his best friend didnt find his company enough.
Max has said in the past that he wants to travel overseas again. He decided to settle in one place for Occy's last years.
@@jmk1962 nothing will ease that pain.
Happy Easter, Max and Occy.
Happy birthday to Occy. 🥰

Raising the table leggs was ingenious🤓I love the bench seat..great work Max! Occy living his best life😊 As for spidey..was not expecting that🤣😂
Absolutely amazing job on the banquette and the drawers look like new. You always crush it Max. Love seeing Occy too. You always do a great job on editing!!❤❤🐾🐾
So happy to see Occy is doing so well at this age. It made me cry because i had to let go of my ow best furry friend Gijs 48 hours ago. He was only 9.
❤
💔💔💔
💔😢🫂💜😇🕊
I’m so sorry. He’s crossed the Rainbow Bridge ❤️❤️
I am so sorry 🌈💜
I was thinking about you and Occy, and then you pop a video on Lol. Just shy of 4 years on this channel,Max. Happy anniversary and blessings 🎉

Haven’t been watching for a while. Going through a lot, but decided today to watch while drinking coffee. Honestly made me smile watching. Thank you
I hope you take comfort that you DID make your home more homey in time for the monsoon season so that you and Occy didn't have be stircrazy with ONLY the van's space to putter around in.
It's great seeing how you've given Occy the wonderful reward for his golden years of a permanent home- after he'd spent his entire life faithfully and patiently being the best 'van dog' possible! Also, I've never forgotten how great it was seeing that him reunite with you after nearly a year of being on separate continents due to the worldwide affliction- with him JUST as eager to reunite with you and not having the slightest amnesia or resentment for the unavoidable separation!
Take care!
Oh. My. God. “Spidey? Ready?” 😮😮😮 wtf. Does he just really leave that beast to chill in his lounge with?!
Famous last words: "How hard could it be?" I just replaced two bathroom faucets after saying those words. I got it done after cramped spaces and a lot of cussing. Your reno appears about the same but came out FAB!! Occy now has a new lounging spot. 🤣😂
Yes, I do enjoy the interior renos, but quite frankly, I really enjoy everything on this channel. I hope you have fun with your guests.
Wow, those ugly drawers look wonderful! Great job on the bench (aside from that little back part). As far as interior vs exterior, both are equally interesting to me. I love seeing what you are doing with your place.
Quite the transformation! Glad to hear it 🙏🏼 thank you 💛
For the renters watching who want a banquet style seating area that is not attached (or damages) the walls. Grab a couple of IKEA 1x4 Kallax units and add the infill doors for storage. Perfect for the banquet seat base.
I had Clark Rubber also make outdoor fabric covers (zipped) seats so I could take them off if I ever needed to wash them. During the now 18 months of use, I clean them with a fabric vacuum cleaner and spot clean when needed. Outdoor fabric is perfect for high traffic (bum on seat) areas 👌
Watching tv with Occy was the sweetest thing ever❤
I always click right over as soon as I see Max and Occy!
Max that bench seat looks so good. Love the green it reinforces the rain forest vibe. You do great work.
Max and Occy you are so beautiful and I just love being an Aussie and living in our diverse pretty country ❤ from Perth WA 🌞
Max you are making some real quality changes to your homes interior. There is no quit in you and you get projects done.
I hope your guests enjoy your new dining area. Hugs to Occi. Thanks for the great content.
I put this on my tv.I just looked over at my cat and he was intently watching this video.😂
I swear Oc was looking fr his step stool when you laid down on the bed!❤ He is the king!!!! I love how much you put him in, always delightful! BTW when does he get a dog door?
Grey door looks good, brass and insect guards awesome. You have been a great Ryobi salesman. We’ve gotten a mower and whipper snipper (name?) hopefully will enjoy using as much as you. 😊. Bench seating looks awesome. You never know what you can do unless you try. Please give Occy a pat. ❤K
That dining nook turned out great. You have a real vibe in that place now.. its really become your own castle
Another great video Max and Occy, thank you for sharing. Great job on the covering of the cushions, and I love the colour, it fits in to your home beautifully. So good to see Occy looking so well. Keep on pressing on with the Renos, your home is looking really good. Stay safe and be kind. Jay
With guests, that corner will be so functional and will also make for a perfect solo workstation. Good job, Max. Jack 🥰 please don't move ... !!! Hugs
The benches look great! I like your " the pack" cap.
The person that helped us build our natural material, reclaimed timber ‘one pointed trapeze-playroom’ for my child care helped an 80 year old woman build a circular home, insulating it with ‘clay slurry drizzled on straw that was smashed down between plywood forms framed with rescued barn timbers’. An old building method borrowed from Germany. I have no idea what materials would be used in a rainforest but I bet a little research would bring you ‘bloody good’ results!Good luck on your future build❤
That sounds like how they make hempcrete buildings… look it up, it’s awesome!
Max love all your projects inside and outside. Bench looks great as does your new home.looks lovely …give Occy a big hug and a kiss from me … I’ve got my collies on ‘yumove’ works great on stiff joints keep smiling xxx
I really like how the seating nook turned out. The dark green fabric against the white is amazing. And the rebuilt kitchen storage was brilliant! What a great idea to reuse an existing piece for storage. As always give that lovely Occy a few extra cuddles and keep one for yourself. Happy Easter! 💜🐰🐣
Occy is such a beautiful dog,
Occy looks so healthy 🎉 He’s the same age as my Border Aussie 🎉
The corner looks awesome!!! 🎉
Looks like he's showing his age to me.
Love the color of the cushions! They look great with the table! As someone else pointed out they will flatten out some over time. I enjoy both the insand outside projects. Love and hugs to you and Occy❣️🐾🐾
I had to laugh, I thought I was the only person to say, "How hard can it be?" I love your bench; I would love to have a little bench in my breakfast nook corner. Your fabric selection is perfect. The repurposed cabinet is so nice, looks brand new and functional for your kitchen.
OH and that is a HARD NO - to "Spidey"🫣
Thanks for the beautiful video and of course the king always gives me a big smile. Just love Occy.
Loving the Spider. Thank you for allowing it to share your space without killing it. Xx
I heard Supervisor Occy say every time you hit your head that he didn't feel a thing !! 😂😊 I love seeing all you've been doing ! ❤
Great job, Max! The bench seats with extra storage was done beautifully! Also the kitchen cabinet you fixed up was Aldo wonderfully done! Nice big bed now, having it off the floor away from creepy crawlers is definitely a plus! And how awesome is that projector TV! This was an absolute joy to watch!🌟
1. Your hair is absolutely amazing
2. Your excitement to make cushions was everything
Love watching your journey with Occy!!
Yeah, I'm happy the mullet is gone!
And his legs! They are just perfect!
MAX it looks amazing! You do such great work, real cute moment with you and spidey hehe MISS YA xx
Love the sitting nook. You look relaxed, House is coming together now,
Happy Easter Max and Occy. Max the bench looks amazing and the storage cabinet also. You are becoming quite the DIYer. Occy your a fantastic supervisor.
