Hey Guys! I was traveling in a van full time for 3 years while Elli traveled full time for 2 before we bought the house, which is why we’re still growing our collection of books! 📚 expect it to be full in a few years. 😉 We hope you enjoy this week's video. Plus... What would your own dream home library look like? We'd love to hear from you! 🥹📚 Click the link below to give Compassion Threads a look!

Definitely a sleeper couch with lovely colorful pillows a throw a side table with glass stained lamphade and a tea coffee biscuit snack table station. Reading next to a crackling fireplace.
Your visions are turning this 70 year old house renovation into a true labor of love. Maddie and Elli, your joy is contagious as you tackle each step, not letting difficulty get in your way. The gentle cows and silly ducks add such a sweet touch to your videos! A toast to both of you on getting the bookcases built and how lovely those books and personal accents fit. Cheers~
You girls are amazing! I swear there is nothing you can't do. I absolutely love the library. All the books, decor and plants are beautiful. One of my pet peeves also is arranging the books with the pages out. How could anyone cover up all those beautiful covers. I also don't like when books are arranged with all the same colors together. This room has to be one of my favorites. Your little cottage is just adorable and you both should be very proud of the accomplishments you have made. Wishing you both happiness in your sweet little home.
I got so inspired by this video. The day you posted it I looked around my apartment and realized there were bookshelves in FOUR different rooms. So I started turning my spare room into a library. Today (2 months later) I finally finished it! It was slow going but I finally found the perfect chair in a thrift shop and then it all came together. "Trust the process." What a great affirmation. Thanks for the inspiration!!
Diese Bücherwand ist großartig! Und das mit einem verhältnismäßig kleinem Budget erstellt. Großartig, dass Bücher wieder so geliebt, dass sie so schönen Raum erhalten werden.
Such a perfect way to pass the time recovering from Covid. Your vid is speckled with gems of goodness. The cows, your duckies, the beautiful nature in that area. You gals are making extraordinary memories. And some arduous ones. Dealing with brick walls is not easy. But in the end, you achieved another very nice step in customizing your awesome little place. We love you gals ❤
I remember watching your videos from you first moved in and all your visions for what you imagined how each room would look like. After seeing your home library completed, it looks gorgeous. I can't wait for the next project/reveal!
Wow, what a beautiful room! You both have excellent taste - and it's so nice that you have so many lovely and meaningful belongings to display. Love to you both, the ducks and sweet Eliza - oh, and the cows - from Toronto!
Wow, congratulations on completing your sanctuary. The double doors are beautiful and so is your library. You both are so good at decorating the shelves of the library and the use of small plants are really clever. Well done! You gals are amazing 😍
Eeee so happy that you guys finally had a project that didn't feel like it ended up taking WAY longer than you thought with a million detours! It look amazing! Loving loving this series!
Congrats. During the van days your love of books always came through and now you have the perfect space to display your collection. Wishing you both many cozy days and nights in your own library.
We stumbled across your channel and we really enjoyed your content. Looking forward to watching more of the house and garden renovations. We're watching from Hong Kong.😊
The room turned out so nice, think what a difference the moldings make, nice work, looking forward to the next room, and so nice to hear you speak German Maddie. Don't forget to enjoy everyday life
The library is as beautiful as you imagined! The two of you are so patient and it certainly pays off. You’ve now accomplished more than you have left to do.🎉😊🎉
You have great taste, Maddie and Elli . Your book shelves look totally cool and suit the room . And you have displayed your books , ornaments, and plants to perfection . Nice job girls , love it 👍
Really loving the renovations, but also just keeping up with you guys. Have been watching Maddie for a couple of years now - all the van life stuff. But, this is such a great transition - so happy for you both and the beautiful sanctuary you are making in Germany. ❤
Great job. I'm always impressed by your high energy levels. The library looks like professionals did the work....super comfy! You live in a beautiful pastoral part of the world. Living the dream.
Wahnsinn ❤. Ihr seid so fleißig. Alles sieht wunderschön aus. Bin gespannt, wie es weiter geht! Habt also schöne Woche und viel Spaß bei der Arbeit 🙌👍💃
You ladies rock! Finally getting this process going right! Love the library. Didn’t see much of the ducks this week! Congratulations on a room remodel!
Wow, stunning on all fronts, fantastic job yet again! All your hard work has paid off and your vision for a lovely, calm and peaceful room has come true, and you get to work in it! It’s wonderful to see how happy you and Elli are and how well you work and have fun together 3:19. Always look forward to your videos. Thanks for taking us along on your journey! ❤
Ahhhh, the sense of achievement when you have successfully built flatpack furniture with no parts broken or left over.... Simply wonderful. Also, beautiful library, well done, great job. x
The good old Billy bookcase! Brilliant work putting those together, you both looked comfortable & at ease working together. Bare feet, casual & comfy clothing. Plus Ninja window cleaning from Eli!
So impressed! Love the classic/retro combo. The doors look amazing between the two rooms or open as one larger room. Can't wait to see the cozy reading nook around the fire. You girls have real vision... 🤩
What a great room girls ! Amazing how far you have come already. Good camera work too.! I would love to see more of the town and your surroundings when you can find the time. 👏👏👏👏
I LOVE the library! The room looks bigger with the library, than the before picture. This was amazing! Y'all did such a great job. You should be really proud of yourselves. It looks so relaxing and peaceful. Thumbs up! Beth in Raleigh, NC
Your home is gorgeous! And your library is truly stunning! I've said this before, but your home looks like what you'd see in a magazine. I was also thinking how I've been enjoying your home renovation videos more than shows I watch on HGTV because there's an aesthetic that you create that those shows don't have. Like how you include all that beautiful scenery with music in the background. I especially loved where you were walking across the bridge with that pretty music. And those 3 little ducks that always waddle around together, so sweet! And I hope we get to see more of Molly and her baby, Fiona with those eyelashes! I enjoyed this so much. Thank you, Maddie and Elli!
I’m so jealous!! I’ve always said when my kids left home I’d turn one of their rooms into a library! I love it and this French doors ❤❤❤❤ GREAT WORK LADIES 🎉
Whaooo! What an upgrade compared to the van's bookshelf. I remember Maddie shifting books when she stopped at her mom's house. No need of that anymore.
Love this book wall idea, I have inspiration now for my tiny living room. Love your channel, its been one of my faves since you started, love the brave new life in Germany and Ellie is a great addition to your channel. :)
Good ol' Ikea bookshelves. I remember I built two of them with my dad and we built them upside down and backwards. Long story short. We had to build them again 😂
Love the video diary, your wonderful home, and the room transformations taking shape. It's looking good 💚 My library is full of adventure, crime and scientfication books with a comfortable lounger, green plants to add colour, like yours.
this stunning, this library has been done to an amazing level, ,,, what a beautiful work area, the the desk under the window with all the natural light....... When can we move in, honestly it is outstanding what people can do when they just give it a go, the the decor on the shelves, you guys are secret interior designers aren't you, lol. ........ its a big, no huge thumbs up from me and now has inspired me to do something with my office. xxx thank you and that little room where your boxes were, is that wallpaper staying cause I think it looks so cool, xxxxxx can wait for the next videos
You know what, "Trust the process", I needed to hear that. What an absolute dream of a transformation. It's such an incredible blessing to get to watch you guys each week. You look like an absolute dreamteam, Eliza and ducks included;p... ALSO I am very curious on how you two find working together and the things you come across in working and living so close together. I would love an Q&A with Ellies side of the story of you two meeting (Like what was her journey upon meeting you and your friends) up until here. I you guys feel comfortable sharing of course:) I am very grateful for you guys and see you next week, can't wait🙏🏻 Love the aesthetic✨
