Aww thank you for your lovely comment!! We can’t imagine not having her in our lives now! She definitely keeps us on our toes 🐶🤣 I’m almost at the end of finishing this filler stage; goodness it’s taking a while but will be so worth it! Xx

@@GoingHomeDesign ❤️❤️

Hey Sarah! Thanks for commenting! We still have the apartment but the viewings are now starting to pick up which is a great feeling! Renovations are very dangerous haha but also therapeutic. We’re really happy knowing every surface and inch of this property! In terms of James’ legs, this is going to be an ongoing recovery process especially when he is dealing with his muscle-wasting disability as is. He might talk about it later in a video but it’s completely up to him!

Hey Sonya! Aww thank you for watching and for your lovely comment! Yes!! That’s exactly our vibe and mission when it comes to this next phase of ‘pretty progress’. Can’t wait to share it with you!

Thank you for your lovely comment! We definitely feel lucky to be able to on this project!

In terms of ‘original features’, there weren’t that many to begin with as part of the property had been crashed into during WW2. We have kept the real wood flooring that was in the large living room space, but dado rails and skirting weren’t in great conditions sadly. As we’ve also widened the doorways, the original doors won’t fit. Moving into this next phase, we are eager to bring back the features that should be in a 1930s home! But for modern day living! Will the period features be original, no. But equally we want to do the property justice!

That’s very sweet of you! It’ll be our 11th year together this year!

☘️🇮🇪

Aww thank you for your lovely comments, and glad you enjoyed watching our project develop! It really does mean a lot! This next stage of the project will be worth the wait! Thanks again!!

Thank you!

Thank you very much!! It’s all about mindset isn’t it! Haha I was going to say!

Aww thank you so much! That means a lot! There was no other way, I just had to keep going! James isn’t fully recovered yet but he is getting there!

Anything to keep it somewhat homely and normal feeling whilst we were taking the home apart haha

Ah thanks! It was so needed just to get away from it and take a breather! It’s called a Tri-ride; an Italian brand and as you can see, James loves it haha

🤣 Oh yes!! 🔨💥

I think as we were getting help from lots of different people, we got sidetracked and completely forgot about underfloor heating for a while! As you’ll see in the next episode, we had many distractions along the way! Also, thank you for watching and leaving comments!!

We are so lucky to have family and friends who were eager to get stuck in too!

I know what you mean! We really enjoyed it haha It felt so good peeling back the layers and knowing exactly what we were working with!

Hey! Thanks for watching and leaving a comment! I actually agree with you; this video in particular was created over a year and to be honest my ideas have changed somewhat since then! I’ve had enough time now to rethink all of the rooms, and agree that all the rooms need to have that something that shows they belong to the same property haha! Thanks again! And hope you’re still looking forward to watching this next phase of the project!

Aww hey! Thanks for your lovely comment 🙌🏻 I’m super happy your enjoying the series! No way; are you also documenting your progress? Haha

@@GoingHomeDesign well I did have an Instagram with my decorating& repair work / and home DIY but it got hacked and I lost the whole thing 😞 should be start a new one though. I'm too impatient to get jobs complete to record them 😂

Oh no 🙈 I’m gutted for you! Hopefully you’ve still got a lot of pictures and videos so you could re post them!

Aww thank you so much Carolyn! I’m so glad you‘be enjoyed the series so far! This next phase is so exciting and I honestly can’t wait to start!

Thank you so much for taking the time to watch the entire playlist! That must have taken a while! Aww you’re really sweet; I appreciate that!

Aww thanks for joining Emma! That’s so lovely of you! I can’t wait to start sharing this next creative phase with you all!

Welcome!! 😁 Thank you so much!

We’ve been very lucky as a few lovely things like the chair came with the house!!

You are too kind! Thank you so much, and I’m with you! Whatever we set our mind to, we can achieve it! Really appreciate your kind words! 💕

Thank you for such a lovely comment! Here’s hoping it won’t be as emotional going forward haha Little Indi has certainly turned our lives upside down in the best way!

Aww Hey Lia! Thank you for joining! Keep an eye on the community tab from time to time for real time photo updates too!

Great minds! That is exactly our plan in the ensuite (more on that in a video soon!) We’re also looking at ceiling tracks for James to go from the bedroom into the ensuite which could also lower him into either the bath or on the toilet!

Thank you for your super kind comment! James is getting there, not 100% but I have a feeling this is going to be his year! You are so right! Equally very excited to start this next phase of the project with you all xx

Thank you for such a lovely comment! It’s been a wild ride but very excited to show you all everything to come!

Not a silly question at all! Our bungalow is thankfully in an area where you can have a garden bonfire but it’s common curtsy to your neighbours to 1. Only start a bonfire at a time when it’s not going to cause a nuisance for your neighbours; drying clothes, summer days when they are enjoying their garden, etc 2. Only burn things that aren’t going to create a lot of smoke. We only burn wood! There’s probably more info online but that’s what I know!

Aww thank you so much! There’s lots of work and projects to do to get us there!

👋🏼 Thanks for watching!!

Hey hey! Aww thanks ☺️ It feels really good to be back!

Aww thank you very much! That’s really kind! The most affectionate Velcro dogs aren’t they 🥹

@@GoingHomeDesign They certainly are! Too much love to go round all day, every day ☺️

Aww that’s very kind! This is THE year for sure. We’re really excited to share this journey with you all!

Thank you! We were a bit worried about coming across some but thankfully we’re 100% asbestos free 🙌🏻

Aww thank you! That means a lot! It feels good to be back, and very excited for all of the projects to come in this renovation! 💜

Thank you!! It’s an exciting year ahead

Aww thank you! Yes lots more to come for this year!

Aww thank you for being so patient!

Thanks for being patient! As you can imagine, we needed a bit of time to mentally deal with everything that has happened. But now! We’re ready to start this next stage of the process!

It’s not homemade (it’s Das) but after doing some research, it looks somewhat straight forward to make!

@@GoingHomeDesign I've tried several porcelain clay recipes, they are good for small, light pieces. I'm just trying to figure out a recipe for air dry clay to do large pieces that aren't going to fall apart on me. About ready to give up on this clay craft.

@@jellusbox I’m sure you’ve already tried this but just in case you haven’t already, have you tried building first with foil or polystyrene and then put the air dry clay around that?

@@GoingHomeDesign I'm trying to make yarn bowls, can you do that with those? I'm thinking I'm going to have to coil them because I just can't get the slab ones to stop collapsing on me and I want a little neater than draping it over another bowel. And porcelain clay isn't good for bowl making is it? I guess I just need to buy a box of Crayola and give up on making my own clay for now. Thanks so much for your help! I really appreciate it!

Making a coiled yarn bowl will look more designed too! Don’t lose hope; keep experimenting with the different clays with the coiled method! No worries lovely

Aww thank you so much!! Can’t wait to get back to doing projects like these soon 🥰
