Hey all! Thanks for joining me on a tour of our little cottage. There is still a lot to be done and I can't wait to share it with you!

[kristenbylenga]

I loved all the little vignette shots of the living room but I was really aching for a wider shot to get a feel for the overall space. Beautiful home, I love what you've done!

[tbrown]

I shouldn’t read comments because I am appalled at some people’s rudeness 😞 I enjoyed the tour, the history of the house, the narrative of what’s been done and your future plans. You were very kind to give us a glimpse of your personal space, and that’s what it is... personal space for you and your family. Thank you and please know there are plenty of us that thoroughly enjoyed this. Blessings from Newberg, Oregon.

When you would talk about things like the ceilings I was bummed you didn’t show them

[tracypoynton]

I think the camera man is madly in love with the host. So sweet too witness genuine aw in a subtle way. I loved how you delicately described everything and my eager to snoop was Keen. Until I noticed he just loves you and how you story tell forgetting to show us noseies around. I'm a new subscriber and sharing to like minded friends. Were looking at an empty winter field and excited to start our own journey. Thank you for all the inspiration

Pro tip from someone who sanded cathedral ceiling timbers for an entire summer and only got through my bedroom in my mountain home. Sand the beams and at least white or dark wax them before you install them. Spiders and cobwebs cannot be removed from unfinished actual rough-hewn wood. Brush bristles, microfiber other cloth bits get stuck and a vacuum doesn't work especially with the debris from a wood stove over time. If you are interested, I can send you pics of how I made the cottage/cabin look functional.

Still have no idea what t looks like because all the close ups on the decorations and no footage of the actual house.

[samanthaB]

Would have appreciated the view of what you did with your popcorn ceilings and floors. Never really viewed any room from a distance....all shots were up close. Narration nicely done.

[HomesteadingWays]

I was waiting for before/after stills at the end because you never showed any room in it's entirety. If, for whatever reason, you don't want to show the whole room you could explain that to the audience, I'm sure. We would understand. But when you talk about the beautiful wood of the floor and then don't show it, it's quite frustrating.

[abbame]

Your home is very charmingly decorated, but I wish we could have seen more of the house, the ceilings, and wider shots to get a better feel for each space.

[diyfferent]

No disrespect to the cameraperson, but the clips were too close-up and shaky. Barely saw the rooms with it being so far zoomed-in. The video was actually frustrating to watch. Don't you see what we're all seeing?

[jendyson]

There is a trend in America to sterilize the whole house. Home after home decorated with mass produced 'country' decor. No imagination goes into that. Your house is beautiful and reflects all the things you love and have gathered over time, so pretty. We have the same taste, I love crusty old things too :) I love your fireplace and windows. A pretty fireplace is a sanity saver in winter, its hard to be sad and grouchy with a wood fire roaring away its my favorite thing about winter. Thanks for sharing your home!

[thefarmerswifecanada]

You are so good at making vignettes! I used to collect vintage and antique things, but was horrible at displaying them. I ended up getting rid of everything and becoming more minimalist. Seeing your house makes my heart swoon with happiness! I still love vintage! Beautiful home. Very cozy❤️

[fraukehth]

This video is exactly what your home, not just house, shows in the right way. I am always a little surprised when I see dining rooms that are never used. For me your home is exactly used as I know it... all the gathering in the dining room, no meal that is not eaten sitting around the table and no TV during the meals. A sitting room where you want to sit and enjoy company or take a breath and relax. No need for walkable closets because no one can ever wear all the stuff. A shared bathroom because we are a family and it’s a good thing to learn and accept different needs for privacy. Thank you for sharing (please excuse my rubbish English, but after reading some comments I had to say something) Frauke

Hi Shaye, I'm a big fan of your channel so it was so cool to see my book, At Home with Madame Chic, on your coffee table. I love what you and your husband have done with your space. It is so refreshing and European in feel. Like you said, it's also cozy and inviting... it doesn't feel like a museum. I love the cottage aspect of the decor too. We redid our kitchen recently and went with blue cabinets. I love that they are non-traditional. Thanks for sharing and I look forward to your next video! Jennifer xx

[MJAMES]

If we got to see the updated living room, I missed it. All I seen was items in the living room such as the books, pictures on the wall, a view out the window, a green chair.

[ohioladybug]

You have wonderful style and I love that it’s a home - not a house. Your love shows. I was disappointed that I couldn’t see more of the “refrigerator” but rather just a couple of jars 😔.

[wildfreeliving]

This is way too zoomed in. I was really interested in seeing the root cellar, but it was just you and close ups of jars.

[nancycowan]

My husband and I just remodeled our old house. It is newer and fresher and lovelier than ever before. I don’t feel the need to share or show it to anyone. Let whoever visits us experience our joy. You get to have that same joy. The posters who are insulting and unhappy make me sad. House joy gets to be seriously personal. You have fans. We love your life. I’ll deal with my new house with those I love. You will too. ❤️ BTW, I really want a root cellar.

[wandaarganbright]

Thank you for showing what a farmhouse really looked/looks like. It reminds me very much of my grandparents old farmhouse. Seven generations of my family have lived in that house and no one ever painted the whole thing white inside and out. This new "farmhouse" decor style blows my mind. Your home is a more authentic farmhouse. Very much enjoyed seeing your home. I remember going down to the "ice room" to get ice chips to make homemade ice cream in a hand crank ice cream maker.
