I recently renovated the abandoned 100 square foot garage in my back garden in preparation for moving in. It has suffered a lot of neglect over the years so a lot of work was needed to get it move in ready. Electric was already supplied to the building and I had water lines added before starting. A lot of prep work was needed before moving in, including cleaning, sanding, painting, laying the floor, installing the kitchen and designing the interior. The end result still surprises me with how comfortable and functional it is.

Good job. One request: The reveal needs a couple steady shots to give us a good long look of each area, esp. the kitchen. Too jumpy.

Great job! Thanks for taking us along for the ride! And I appreciate you pointing out your mistakes! Those are the kinds of things that can really help people trying to do the same!! 👍❤️‍🔥

Without mistakes there is no learning so they aren't really mistakes are they, they are learning points 😁 Job well done.

[Carleneruns]

Great job. I love that you point out mistakes to help folks avoid them if they try something similar.

[harpieahouse]

I liked how you shared your mistakes and how you rectified or adapted to them.

[shendaraalshedir]

Thank you for showing your mistakes, this is the REALITY lacking when you hire professionals. For those who can't afford that, this is a great video. Well done! Love the gorgeous blue you chose.👍🏻😃🐾🌈☮️🇨🇦

Hi Dan,
Thank you for sharing the mistakes and what you did next.
A lot of renovations will be edited to show a seamless process and I liked how you showed us the reality of the project.
Had no idea that magnetic and whiteboard paint existed before watching this.
I still have a huge whiteboard from my student days and I’m glad to have held onto it.
The place looks great!

It really looks great! Couple of suggestions... to fix the issue behind your countertop, you could install a tile, or even stick on back spash... that might make up your space. Also, if youre not keen on doing a backsplash, you could put a piece of trim along the crack to conceal it. Tip #2... when the drywall/paint started coming off on your roller, you shoukd have used a plastic scraper to remove all the loose plaster, then skim coated the area to get it smooth. The pealibg means there is moisture getting in their, and youre going to have to figure out what is causing it, bcs it will just keep pealing off if you dont take care of it... enjoy your new man cave! 😍

Excellent end result and thank you for not cutting out the mistakes! Super helpful to see. Not to mention you recorded this video throughout the whole process. Legend

[ThomasCummiskey]

We learn from what goes right and wrong. Thanks for including both. Is there a bed in your space? Next vid show us you waking up, getting out of bed and making coffee

[craigster]

I appreciate how willing you are to let it be known that you made mistakes.

The white sports om the blue wall was actually kind of Cool, it looked like stars!

[dszyo]

I don’t know how this doses not haver more views this video is pure perfection keep uploading videos like this and I will sure u will be famous

[debi]

You're tiny house turned out very well. I was thinking, you know how you cut your counter too short? You could have used the cut off piece & applied construction adhesive to it & glued it to the wall & on top of the gap. The cut off could have been a backsplash. It would have totally matched. Nevertheless everything turned out awesome!

[philtucker]

Dan that piece you cut off the worktop will make a perfect upstand! (Derrrr, )

[juliedesaulniers]

Looks great, would love to see a floor plan and why you placed everything where it is

[yehiaayad]

An absolute beauty of a renovation. The aspect of adding reality to the mix definitely elevated the video. Great one! Definitely subscribing now.

[carolesilvoy]

I’m glad I came across this video, and enjoyed it. Going forward though, add “made the reveal too short and jumpy” to the mistakes list! There are elements in the space I would have liked to heard described, like the cook top, the dark glassy surface above which you used to do a fancy shot of the cooktop area (a video screen??), and the innovations at the door for shoe storage etc. I think a separate reveal video with description of the finished space may be warranted.

[cesarlemos]

Loved the mistakes counter, it shows how important it is to plan ahead, but also that without the experience of failing, you will never learn how to do it properly.

[owieprone]

Well done, great job. I'd have gone for the pop-on blinds in the window seals and a blackout blind to reduce the cluttered feel curtains give. And hung the blackout at the ceiling rather than just above the window, less light creep, clutter and it's out of the way when not in use.
