DIY Friends! I just wanted to take a moment to reiterate how thankful I am for all of you sticking with me for three weeks on this project 💜 I know it’s not ideal to make a project into a 3- parter but I wanted to make sure I could show all the ups and downs and what It takes to really create a project on the scale, by yourself. Don’t even get me started on doing it yourself and also filming it haha 😂 Your support has meant the world Xo I love this community so much. Grateful for all of you! 💜

[ms.robinson]

Me + Pj's + warm blankie + coffee + diy Danie = the best Saturday 🥰

[sifrade]

You are my inspiration, truly!! Tip: swap the bulbs for adjustable smart ones, then you can have the warm glow and the bright day light, also the warm glow can be useful to do your makeup if you are just going for a soft light night event ☺

This project turned out beautifully! The wallpaper, the dresser color, the hardware, everything! I would really like to see how you organize this space. Thanks for bringing us along!

[deborahmatatall]

This is beautiful, Dani! Yes, I would love to see how you organize your new space. I’m so incredibly impressed with what you accomplish in your videos! I’m addicted to reno videos and some of their projects are done over many episodes. I think this was great to spread this out over three episodes. You were able to share more info and detail that way.🌸

A quick tip for painting when you don't want to tape of is get a really stiff piece of cardboard that is comfortable to use and then wrap it in cling wrap. You place it up up against the wall and just go. If it gets paint build up you wipe it off. It takes a little bit of practice but it really helps.

This is absolutely stunning! The only thing I thought you would do, is spray paint the accordion mirror a brass colour to match the other metal pieces. 💜

[orladarcy]

Yes we want to see the vanity organisation! We are invested in this entire Vanity station journey now. Its so beautiful, you are such an inspiration 💖

[wendyreekes]

Yes - want to see the organization!!! Would love to see how you use the space!

[debloui]

Looks amazing!!! One trick I learned with wallpaper is to paint the wall a similar colour to the main one in your wallpaper. Especially when it’s a dark wallpaper. That way, if you end up with a tiny gap between the seams, you don’t have a white line down the wall.
Well done on such a breathtaking makeover. I always learn so much from you ❤

Hi Danie, This is stunning! I’m 75 years old and because of your videos, I’m looking for a beginner Woodworking class in my area. If you ever doubt your work again, you’re my hero and inspiration! ❤

[LizaGvozdevaLifePsychology]

I love it! Danie, you've done so mush work! All these teeny tiny details, that borrows but should be done, they make a difference of perception. In small work is huge impact. Women power!

In my opinion I would make the bottom part (box for vent) either narrower in comparison to dresser depth or has fake fronts as actual dresser.
In first example, the dresser could be deeper, bottom part could be painted in color of walls or darker as well as the baseboard under it. It could have front legs, fluted shapes, turned wood, golden metal etc.
In case of fake fronts the baseboard should be dark blue. Handles to the fake fronts - yes. Vent cover - maybe its possible to drill a bunch of holes in plywood facade (in some pretty order) and do not use this cover at all.

I am obsessed with your wallpaper! By the way in Ukraine its typical to glue real wallpaper, not peel-and-stick one. I use dry glue that diluted with water, it is very handy!

[MiriamTV]

The only thing I'd change is the vent cover, either spray it gold or paint it the same blue as the rest of the dresser. Beautifully done! I long for the day when I will have the space to take on similar projects!

[vannili]

I actually enjoy it so much more to watch a project over several weeks than having an overload in changes. I think extreme makeovers make it so much harder to enjoy the little details and appreciate the work that goes into everything.

[lauris]

This is my favorite thing that you've ever done. The wallpaper is divine and I love the paint color. And you BUILT A DRESSER!!!! It all looks so good; you must be so proud! Well done!

[raynatullett]

LOVE that blue! Thank you for sharing ALL this diy saga. We really appreciate knowing that even the best has to sometimes deal with random glitches and wonky floors and walls. That new vanity is super cool and so beautiful. You rock! xxx

[lechatbotte.]

I’m so excited to seen the final reveal. Danie making DIYers everywhere feel they too can accomplish anything…….well almost anything hee hee. One word shims, my house is crazy I use a lot of shims. Lol

[curtny]

Watching Brenden Fraser in that movie is NEVER weird. 😍🔥

[ccancglin]

“The right way is any way!” Could not agree more ❤

[chrisvolkoff]

This was such a journey with you! STUNNING! The color, the wallpaper, the built in, the sconces! The heart, sweat and tears you put into the DIY! WE WERE and ARE WITH YOU DANIE! I know you will enjoy this! And yes to organized video. Give your self a high five, pat on the back, celebratory adult beverage! Wahoo!
