- This week I'm making the 'ikea hack' mirror thats been popping up on tik tok and youtube recently. I'm also putting in a huge chalk board and the first work bench into my shipping container studio.
Here's a link to a video tutorial for the mirror make: • making *THAT* diy mirr...

Yes! More farm, more animals, more garden. Love it all.
Thanks Jen! X
Yes, I would definitely be interested in seeing Rob and his work. He is obviously very multi talented so it would be really interesting xxx
Yes, I love seeing people working on the farm.Goodluck.
Both you and Rob are amazing! It’s so lovely seeing so many things being made by hand xxx
You are amazing!!! Let no one tell you otherwise!
Looks great! Can’t wait to see the finished studio!
I don’t mind seeing your Rob on the videos and seeing what he has to do on the farm. I love the mirrors on the door looks great, can’t wait to see the flowers in there.
Thanks Karen, me too!
Oh wow that mirror!! I NEED ONE 🖤 Would love to see the other side of farming. I think all on the one channel would be great, you’ve got such a likeable family dynamic together x
It's all looking so beautiful. Farm videos would be amazing. 🤗
These workshop videos have been wonderful interior and exterior. I've them over and over. Love everything except the patina wall, which you changed later.
Shipping container is looking good!
I’d love to see more farming content on the same channel. Once there is more than one channel I find I start missing videos.
What a great studio it is going to be. Love the mirror. It turned out so good!!!
Very excited for you!
The studio is looking amazing . Footage from the farm on this channel would be good, you two are such a great team .
Love the Mirror
I would love to see both of you on the same channel. Great work and thank you so much for sharing. :)
The mirrors look great! I think it would be neat to see some farming from Robs perspective. 🙂
Great work space! You look excited!! Would love to see farm stuff!
I'd love to see what Rob does ❤
Love your channel! Container is looking great.
You did an amazing job! Would love to see what Rob is doing. Great videos. You’re a rockstar!!
Aww thank you haha x
The mirror hack turned out amazing! Would love to see the farming on this channel as well :-)
This looks fantastic!! I love your creativity 😊
I love all your content! Looks so good ! I would love To see what Rob does as well.
Loving the studio, I actually loved the wall when it was rose, ❤️ but can see how all the colours contrast and it is very funky 👍 , though can tell you’re not sure 🤔, sometimes it’s like a gut feeling , like I’ve just painted my potting table purple pansy , at my 7 year old granddaughters request 😂🤣😂🤣 def out of my comfort zone 😂🤣😂how can I change it now when she loves it sooo much 🥴. Mirrored wall is great love how it makes it look like another room , it’s gonna look amazing when it’s finished great space to work in . Would love to see Rob doing his bit on the farm looks like great team work, think you should keep it tog on here , 👍👏🏻👍
I’d love to see more videos of the farm whether it’s on your channel or a different one. Farming has changed so much since I was growing up on our family farm.
Nice work. I think everything on this channel would be great!
Thanks Lisa, looking forward to putting something different out there!
Would love to see more of Rob and farming. I would be happy to subscribe to another channel, or have it included here.
Great job looks fab!
I love your vlog style videos and adding a bit of Rob's side would be interesting sprinkled in. If you plan on doing a lot of farming videos then maybe do a second channel.
Would me great see rob’s farm videos!
Yes vote for Rob.
Coming along a treat, would love to see more of the farm side, think seeing both would compliment each other
Thank you! Looking forward to showing more!
Hiya, loved the mirror and the chalkboard, looks great. I'm not loving the patina on the back wall still, think I preferred it when it was plain copper colour. If you've still got some left over copper paint maybe try stencils, flowers or your logo? I know you've got your heart set on the neon light but maybe something like that would be nice just for now. I'd like to see Rob doing his jobs around the farm if not on a different channel maybe a different playlist on this channel. I'd like to see a video about how you decide on colour themes for bouquets, like how do you decide how large a bouquet is going to be?
Much love from Ipswich UK xx
Everything is looking so good! I LOVE that mirrored wall with the chalk board. Your other wall with the copper/oxidized area is growing on me. Fantastic job! Always love your videos and would love to see Robs side of the farming on this channel Have a lovely weekend!
Farm side would be interesting yes, but maybe keep separate. I’d certainly watch both but primarily here for gardening side (no offence Rob!) 🙂
Love the videos Sarah ~ just catching up on the shipping containers! Have to say I LOVED the Copper paint next to the Pink tiles (fab job on those 👏🏻) so not keen on the Patina effect...but it’s your space not mine 😉
Would love to see what Rob does too, for me I wouldn’t mind seeing this mixed in on this channel. After all you’re both ‘Gray’ so makes sense to have a full picture of what you both do on the Bloom & Gray channel (and he’s on alot of the vids already!)...but whatever works best for you guys 👍🏼
Look forward to seeing the end result ~ best of luck with it 😃
Absolutely brilliant, love it . Can't wait to see it full of flowers
It is looking great! I would love to see what rob dose! That last shot of the field looks really cool!
Fab! How he drives a combine and a drone at the same time is beyond me!!
Love the mirror, it's going to look amazing cant wait to see the end result 🙂
I think including your husband and the whole farm would be very interesting. I don’t really know the history or backstory of your farm and what else you grow there so that might be something you may want to include as content. How big is the farm, the layout, how you both settled there etc.
This is coming along so beautifully, wow! I personally am obsessed with the copper wall-- it's a beautiful work of art and definitely adds a lot to the space. The colors look incredible alongside the wood colors and the black in the studio. And I think it would look amazing with a neon sign someday too.
I'd love to see more of the farm/Robs side of things whether it's on this channel or another😊
The mirror wall and chalkboard look fantastic, it’s all coming together brilliantly 💕
Video ideas...just would love to see the seedlings as they progress, planting in the rows, their growth, cutting for selling etc.
Sorry about your thumb, that really had to hurt.! I think you've done a wonderful job, it'll be such a nice place to do everything you have in mind. I think I'd prefer Rob have his own farming channel. I don't live on a farm but I have nothing but farm land around me, hundreds of acres, it would be interesting to see the difference if any how you farm there, and this guy does here in the states.
yesssss please
You guys are a delight and I'll follow watching whatever you decide to do 👍🏻. The Flower shop is looking amazing! I'm wondering what the mirrored wall would look like on both ends? Except do your copper effect on the wood around the mirrors. Instead of using the drip technique what if you softened the look by dabbing with an old rag. Just some more options for you to ponder 😁 Isn't creating so much fun.
Aww thanks Roxanne! Some things to think about there! Definitely fun 🤩
Container looks great! Love the mirror! Not sure about copper wall. Love the idea. I wonder if you took steel wool and softened areas so the copper color shows thru a bit again. Is Bloom and Gray the entire farm or just your flower portion? Definitely would love to see what Rob does on the farm. If the farm is Bloom and Gray then have one channel. If not have a separate channel maybe. But link and reference it on yours and vice versa!
It's looking so good! I'm liking the wall more each time, but if you do want to re-do it maybe using a large sponge instead of the spraying method would make the patina look more like natural patina instead of graffiti (which I think gives it a cool look, but may not be what you were going for.)
I would be interested to see Rob's side. You're growing quickly but still not huge, so if you want to make changes to the format of your channel now is a good time. I know a lot of people are here exclusively for flowers, so if you do add his content to this channel maybe designate separate playlists for things that relate to the flower farm vs everything else (I don't know much about what else you do, but I could also get into some alpaca and pig content personally!) Having separate sections of the channel or tags in the titles would help people sort out what they do or don't want to see without building an entirely new channel.
I would like to see it on this channel.
Wow! It is looking really nice, I am so excited for you! I was thinking about the oxidized wall you weren't sure of. I was just wondering if some flowers cut from sheet metal or something artsy was attached to that wall in relief it would look awesome. Maybe 3 or 4 centimeters off the wall for the relief dimension. Not sure if that will sound good to you or not but I thought it would look nice.
Love your videos
Do you have a tour video of the finished work space?
yes, long with yours
I would say separate channel with linked content. Crossover each other stuff and promote each other and hopefully they both succeed. I will subscribe to his channel as soon as I know about it to support it. Keep up the hard work you are both doing great!
That’s what we’re thinking. Looking forward to getting started with that too, thanks for supporting us!
Love that work table! Re the inclusion of Rob’s work - I’m here because I’m growing cut flowers on an allotment and I’m learning along with you and seeing how you solve some of the problems. I probably wouldn’t watch more general farming stuff. I think that’s a different audience. It might attract more viewers but would you lose the flower types? Really hard judgement.
Thanks Jan, yes we’re thinking of a seperate channel, then hopefully they will run well alongside each other
Not a sister channel, more of a husband channel!
Id love to watch both of you and would prefer 2 separate channels. Check out Cole the Cornstar who does big farm videos in US
I'd like to see Rob's side but would prefer it on a different channel.
No no no no no
Love the videos Sarah ~ just catching up on the shipping containers! Have to say I LOVED the Copper paint next to the Pink tiles (fab job on those 👏🏻) so not keen on the Patina effect...but it’s your space not mine 😉
