This was so inspiring to watch! My husband works from home, games at night, and occasionally watches football, all while being a super involved husband and dad. Maybe I can surprise him with a makeover like this!
The bench you built on top of the stairs was the inspiration for my first diy project some years ago and today I’m tackling a whole house renovation and you’re the reason why I trust myself to do it. So, a massive thank you! Love love love your channel!
Loved this upgrade! Also I really appreciate how you add text to the screen to give extra information. I wish I had an ounce of your confidence to tackle projects in my home. Keep it up because you are amazing!
This was such an amazing and thoughtful transformation Hillary!! Every little touch was so sweet, and I loved the filming style of the video!! I’ve loved keeping up with your updates since a couple of years ago, and it’s been beautiful watching you and your channel grow! Keep up the amazing work!
This transformation video is absolutely amazing. Your creativity and countless hours of hard work are truly impressive. I was watching your video while having breakfast, and despite the gloomy, rainy weather outside, it lifted my spirits. Thank you for creating such a fantastic video. Looking forward to the next one!
I’m not an active commenter on youtube but I just wanted to say that I appreciate your videos so much and they bring me a lot of peace while also being a huge inspiration! Thank you for providing me with this feeling of comfort I really need at the moment while going through tough times ❤
I'm speechless. So beautiful and homey, while useful and true to both your personalities and styles. Been following you for a long while now but you outdo yourself everytime!
I love the cheerful color and the ambient lighting. You two are adorable. So is Juno. I love that you are very practical about how the room will be used. Wise.
I found the trick with the router is to cut in stages. I made the mistake of trying to cut the full depth in all at once and found that the battery powered trim router just couldn’t cope. So I started in stages routing a little at a time. Each time making the cut deeper until finally I got through to the final depth desired.
What a great job! I sent the link to my hubby, because those cubes might be exactly what we need in our living room to finish it up! The Alex Drawer update is perfect! Thanks for sharing!
I needed this Alex makeover so much! I have two of those and while I hate the look, they are super practical… now I can have both, looks and practicality!
Wow! I’ve been watching office desk set ups all week, so I was so excited to see you post this. Now I want to magnetize something… what a cute collection. Love from Leipzig ❤
such a sweet idea with the magnetic doors for pat's magnets display!!! love the colour for the eket but i might be biased since i literally painted my hallway in a very similar if not the same tone lol the shelves are gonna be like a little sun above pat's head 🌞(too bad we didn't get to see his reaction ;c) i liked the format of this video a lot! it's nice to see you talk, makes it a bit more connecting/engaging in a way :)
Haha he's so camera shy (we both are 😆) so it's difficult to film his real reaction, my 'hidden cam' when I surprised him after I hung the Ekets was so difficult to film 😂
It looks so beautiful, you did an amazing job ! The end results is so much more perzonnalized and neat. We can see the love in all the little details (love the magnets idea). 😊❤
Wooow! This looks awesome!!! ❤ You are so talented! I'm watching your videos since a while and it's amazing what you learned and accomplished. I wish I would have your confident to do projects like that. But I wouldn't even have the space for all those tools! 😅 But it's great to see what one can do to upgrade Ikea furniture. Enjoy your beautiful home! 😊 And if I may say, the two of you AND your dog are a very beautiful example of a loving relationship. So lovely to see how you two interact and how you decide things. Wishing you all the best on all levels! ✨
Thank you ❤️❤️ In our old apt, we didn't have the space either and our basic tools (the only power tool was a cheap jigsaw) occupied just 2 drawers 😆 You can get creative and do a lot with very little!
RUclips seems to be "doing a thing" and hid the comments from being easily accessed. I love the new desk! I wonder how much that piece of elm cost as it's really nice.
@@cloudyhills 150 euros is not bad at all! Especially given the size! I'm currently trying to find a similar size here in the United States and am hoping it won't cost an arm and a leg 😂
What a brilliant video, thank you! So many of these videos are just, here's what I'm going to do, here it is done.... Your's is perfect, some of those tips! I'll take the tacky stuff to see what the handles would look like is inspiring, I'll take that tip to my grave 😅❤❤
Really nice makeover! But I would highly advise to sand and prime your ikea furniture before painting to make sure your paint sticks and doesn't get ruined easily :)

thank you so much for sticking with me 🙆🏻♀️
Imagine having a wife that builds you a -gaming- I mean home office.
😂
You got them at: "Imagine having a wife"
It looks amazing! Love the added touch of the magnetic paint to display the magnets. Hope your husband was happy with the way it turned out.
That's a cool setup. I like the color, just enough orange with the yellow.

This is the best channel on YT
А также Xiu House ;)
Love, love, love this one. And all your videos! I had a feeling you would pick sunshine yellow :) The space looks fantastic!
I'm speechless. So beautiful and homey, while useful and true to both your personalities and styles. Been following you for a long while now but you outdo yourself everytime!
You did a fantastic job. I love the yellow wall mounted cubbies.
I love the cheerful color and the ambient lighting. You two are adorable. So is Juno. I love that you are very practical about how the room will be used. Wise.

thank you! I had to cut 30mm in total so I did 10mm each time, but I think that was still way too much 😵💫 Have to be more patient next time
looks so beautiful, and the small touches ❤ makes me dream about upgrading my own space as well hehehe
ps: loving to see you on camera more often! 😊
Our husband is a lucky guy 😊
The office is just perfect!!!❤
WOW!!! you absolutely cooked with this one, i'm so amazed and so impressed!!

You are amazing! I LOVE watching your work and great to see your face more! You are such a cutie!
🥰🥰
Супер!!!
Спасибо за видео и мотивацию на домашнее преображение)
Юнона у вас классный помощник!))
this is such a nice and thoughtful makeover work!
It's so cool! It's very cool thought out and implemented. I liked the table the most)
Wow! You succeeded at this so well!! I need more information about some of your tools, especially the angle cutter. Thanks for this video!
I'll do a diy studio tour soon and talk about my tools, but in the meantime here's the link to the mitre shears 😊 amzn.to/3CAItdW
What a great job you did, it looks sooooo good 😍
simply adore everything that you do
👏👏👏👏 Quedo maravilloso, buen trabajo. Queremos saber como esta 🐕 , como se han adaptado con él en casa, es un hermoso cachorro. Saludos desde Chile.
It looks amazing!!
I wish I could bottle and sell the noise I made when Pat called you "crazy nugget"
LOL
I love the yellow!
Turned out so nice! Out of curiosity, what is the size of the monitor stand? Thinking about building one myself :)
I love your ideas!! You are very creative🩷
Nice done. Which standing desk is that ?
wait !! how did u replace the table for a standing desk, i didnt even know u could do that ! ur videos are always so lovely to watch
You just need to unscrew the mechanism (the feet)! But be sure to read the manual to avoid unscrewing the wrong parts!
Where is the “feet” from? Great idea about switching the top 😊 greetings from Sweden
It's from Flexispot - They don't have the exact model Pat has anymore, but i think they have many options and black friday sale is coming!!
All I'm gonna say is WOW
looks great
RUclips seems to be "doing a thing" and hid the comments from being easily accessed. I love the new desk! I wonder how much that piece of elm cost as it's really nice.
It was about 150€ for 200x80cm (so hard to find a desktop that's >60cm wide here!), which I think was worth every cent!!!
@@cloudyhills 150 euros is not bad at all! Especially given the size! I'm currently trying to find a similar size here in the United States and am hoping it won't cost an arm and a leg 😂
@@cloudyhills Could you maybe share what product you bought? I've been looking for something like this for a while now.
It's the Exclusiv Holz Tischplatte Ulme 2000x800x27mm - we got it from Bauhaus :)
@@cloudyhills thank you so much!
What a brilliant video, thank you! So many of these videos are just, here's what I'm going to do, here it is done....
Your's is perfect, some of those tips! I'll take the tacky stuff to see what the handles would look like is inspiring, I'll take that tip to my grave 😅❤❤
So hardworking! Love all your tools, have you taken any professional training in carpentry?
no, i learned everything from youtube 😅
Beautiful ❤️
i loved this ^^
Really nice makeover! But I would highly advise to sand and prime your ikea furniture before painting to make sure your paint sticks and doesn't get ruined easily :)
A lot of paints in Germany are made for laminate furniture (because of how common it is) so minimal to no sanding required 🤗
@@cloudyhills I see. I am guessing it is chalk paint then?
Not chalk paint but we do have that too! This type of paint is called called "Lack" 🤔
It’s brilliant! Now I wish I have a wife like you
You're the best👍💯
Bravissima!👏👏
Crazy Nugget 😅
Beautiful! What's the brand of the wooden library furniture with shelves and doors in the office? Are those Muji?
i think you mean the dining room! It's a custom build from mycs!
I would get into marriage if I found a girl who makes so much effort to put a smile on my face!! Good vid!!
Your English is great! Why do you put the subtitles in the video and not just on RUclips? We can't turn them off and can be a bit distracting.
Awesome makeover! I like how you say "Fischgrät" 😄
😆 I always feel like a 5yo trying to pronounce new german words i spot
what style of music do you have in your videos? another youtuber I watch also uses the same kind of singing style and instruments
I love to see your face!
The detail with the magnets was so sweet T^T
✨✨✨
❤❤❤
😍
Is there a reason why you didnt center the desk under the yellow cabinets?
Personally, I prefer things to be more assymmetrical rather than align perfectly 🤗
Hard to read the captions. Could you use a larger font?
Behold, the gigawife.
Did you not have to prime the boxes before painting them, for the paint to stick?
nope, a lot of the paints here in germany are meant for laminate furniture!
This looks AMAZING oh my god. I wish I had a wife like you so my apartment could be a little more organized, but alas I will have to be my own wife 😂
where do I get a wife like you???
Be a guy like Pat
