Kelsey, great video! A must see for beginner DIY'ers. Maybe you should add another tools video for the electrical DIY projects since several of your projects include changing lighting, switches, etc.

Really love your overall approach to your projects, and how you talk to your viewers. You have become my favorite YouTube content creator!

I am putting up a shower door tomorrow and just got my first hacksaw today! I am not comfortable with power saws yet but I won’t let that stop me from getting the job done.

I like that you have your own tools! My husband took tools away from me 6 months into our 40 year marriage 😃. I absolutely love watching you use your tools and dream of projects my hubby can do!! Thanks for the info and have a great weekend!!

I have everything except I am not sure I have an impact drill. 🤔
I did ask for a hand sander for Christmas! My kids raised eyebrows at that but I got it!! I am going to turn a Student Desk into a Kitchen Island shortly. I have a small kitchen with limited counter space so the narrow desk will work perfect! Power tools do Intimidate me some but.. sometimes Ya just gotta jump in and overcome those fears!
You have inspired me to stop waiting or paying someone to do something I myself can do even at my age of 65!
I worked in Retail management for 17 years and believe me.. I have stripped and waxed more floors then I care to remember and yes, I can change out a toilet seal and I have built shelves and counters and storage bins and I can drive all kinda of mechanical things like a skyjack and a fork lift! I am not gonna let a little thing like a Miter saw intimidate me!!

I have a small 900 sq foot 2 BR/1b house and I live 14 hours away from my fav place.. The Beach! So.. I thought… “There really is NO Rule that says I can’t have a Beach house in NW Arkansas, I mean.. WE Do have lakes and some of their names end in “Beach!”😂

And I am right there with you on paint!! Who would have thought the exact same paint would look totally different in two different rooms! One with minimum natural light and one with a lot of it. One painted over a tan wall verse one over a white! But.. I totally love that they are different and ended up being a perfect fit in the room of choice!
Thank you for your inspiration and information!! Your house is beautiful!!

My husband has everything and more, I don’t have the confidence to use them! I did buy a pink set of screw drivers so I’d know when my husband swiped them! I don’t buy from Amazon too many scams. I’ll pay extra to get legit products.

Another tool that you did not list and I have not seen you use that you should be using is a face mask when you are cutting. You do not want all that dust going up into your face and down into your lungs that is very dangerous.
