where I write about walking a lot.
I feel like crying over the amount of effort you’ve put in over these past months for this beautiful result. It’s wabi sabi vibes and just all yours. You worked hard and you deserve to enjoy your amazing space. Thank you for sharing the build and I look forward to the next space design!
The work you did was amazing. The finish result is so nice. The curtains and lighting work extremely well in the small area. Looking forward to your next project. You are so amazing Rosie :) Love your channel !!
Oh Rosie! What a stunning final result! Your work is a perfect example of how limitations inspire creativity. The simple, elegant design with so much attention to detail belies the hard work and planning you've put in. Most certainly stop and admire your amazingly gorgeous spaces. The total cost is a tribute and shows how much beauty can be created without spending a fortune. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful!!
Thanks so much Julia!!!
Over the past weeks, I have been watching your videos. After each ,I have only profound respect for what you have achieved.
To rebuild a cottage tucked away in the heart of a dense forest, with nobody to turn to, no budget, no transportation, no resources to fall back on, except yourself...channeling all your energy , focus, mental reserves and a total detachment from all frivolous expenditure, requires singular courage and determination..
.And you proved it. The beautiful transformation left me gasping with wonder.
There were times when I felt scared for you, especially when you hefted heavy planks ....what if you suffered a slipped disc , I thought?
But God be praised. You showed to the world what an amazing person you are.
With self acquired skills , a very structured approach to this challenging project, and immense patience, every space in that home has been intelligently utilised.
Two years of living off grid with little or no amenities requires true grit.
Your organizational skills, time and budget management are valuable lessons for all management students.
How proud and satisfied you must be to have made such a welcoming home,(with all the feminine touches!!!)all by yourself .
CONGRATULATIONS Rosie.
You are an enduring inspiration.
Much love.
Just wanted to take some time out and explain how precious this project of yours is to me. In this day and age with huge projects and the noise of an overheated world, cheered on by loud masses of extroverted self proclaimed v.i.p´s telling us that bigger and more expensive is always better, a Dutch woman just had enough one day and bought a little cabin in the woods. And she´s awesome. You´re nothing short of a fairytale, you know, the old clever kind that aimed to teach a little something, a useful tidbit of wisdom to be carried through life. You keep making videos, and I´m sure we´ll keep watching. Dont ever change!
It’s absolutely brilliant, and the fact that you’ve achieved all of that without any prior experience is astounding. Really well done Rosie.
I’ve followed from the beginning and had forgotten about the water damage and just how much prep work needed to be done. You’ve achieved a beautifully designed kitchen, with no prior experience, which is impressive. Must be heaven to wake and walk into now. Excited to see what your next project is.
Waking up, walking into the beautiful kitchen bathed in the morning light, sipping a cup of coffee, looking out the windows…
I hope you realize you are now a professional carpenter and joiner! Truly amazing work Rosie. I hope you take time to revel in your accomplishments.
It's an honor to have been taken on this journey with you. I look forward to your future renovations! ❤️🌲🏠
I can't believe this is your FIRST experience building anything. So impressive, Rosie! I can't wait to see you transform the rest of the home. You got this girl!
I'm glad I've been able to come along with you on your journey, Rosie. Thank you for inviting us to watch you grow into your dreams. It's been beautiful.
Congratulations, Rosie! How proud you must feel to have created these designs with your own head, built them out with your own hands, and finished it all with your own heart. Now live in it and take pleasure from it!
Seriously, well done!
It looks warm, welcoming and practical.
The confidence you've undoubtedly gained from doing this all yourself will stay with you for all the other projects.
I hope you feel very proud of yourself.
It looks so cozy! I don't know how to explain it properly in English, but it have this fimiliar, welcoming, nostalgic "great grandparents countryside cottage" vibe, while still being very modern and clean. It's such an unique juxtaposition. Also now, when you finished the units it looks nicely organised, with your items having their designated places. And of course great choices in the lighting 😀They help break this very organic feel that so much wood gives, adding to the complexity of the design.
I also really loved you explainig your design process, while showing the moodboards. Hope we could see that in other videos of finieshed renovated spaces in the future too. It really shows how much intention and thought went into this project. Proud of you!
Your kitchen is so bright and cheery compared to what it was. You should be so proud of what you have done.🎉❤😊
Thank you! And I completely agree with the grandma cottage merged with modern vibes. Unintentional, but I like it. I'm going to include more mood boards coming up, I forget that people aren't in my head and visualising my space in the same way that I am :)
Thank you for the thorough walk through, Rosie. How proud of yourself you must be. You have done an amazing job. Stunning!
You should be proud and happy with your accomplishments, Rosie! You have put your soul (and probably a non-negligible amount of your blood, sweat and tears) into that kitchen renovation, and made it into something that is purely you. Also, you've done so at a fraction of the cost that most would need to put in to up the standards of a regular kitchen. Furthermore, you have raised the value of your house, in case you would ever consider selling it.
This is a beautiful story and I have enjoyed all of it remembering your comment "why would anyone want to watch a low quality production video" This was more than just a kitchen renovation. This was a story about a single woman single-handedly taking on a huge task and mastering it. You have grown to become a skilled carpenter, video production master, talented story teller, masterful on building on a budget inspiring all and proving your design skills. The room is beautiful and so are you. I look forward to see what else you do.
Hahaha thank you Debra!
Excellent categorization Rosie. It's great to see someone do budget reno's who is learning as they go. There is too much content out there where the subject of the video has $15,000 worth of the best tools available and they work in the trades and have friends or family who either help them with thousands in free labour and machinery. You accomplished all this at your own pace and learned as you went. I will continue to watch every video of yours and am genuinely looking forward to your next focus area.
I couldn't of stated it better...sooo refreshing..and beautiful refined taste..
Amazing work, turned out beautiful, congrats! Can't wait for the rest of the house's makeover.
I’m so excited for the next room reno. The kitchen turned out so lovely 😍
You've done amazingly well, considering you had no prior experience. You've inspired me. Thank you🙏
The serene beauty of the space is in its minimal simplicity. The work you put into it Rosie ! What an amazing job ! I think it is perfect. We are all so proud of you !💕🌷
It was a great reminder of exactly how bad the structure was and how much work was required. You were frugal, resourceful, creative and persistent. Be proud, woman!
Thank you for taking us along on your wild ride Rosie. I have enjoyed every moment. You are an awesome, inspiring woman.
Aw Rosie I felt so emotional watching the video. I have followed you from the beginning of your adventure. From one girl living on her own in a little red house in Sweden to another - YOU DONE GOOD GIRL - FEEL PROUD`WOW WOW XXX
awww thanks so much Nicola!!!!!
So beautiful! All the small details, the water filter platform, the curtains, the lights, it is just a stunning, unique and cozy result. Very calming, too.
I find your videos so peaceful and relaxing. I’m sure they aren’t for you though 😂. I hope you are proud of yourself? You have done an amazing job.
It is absolutely gorgeous...you are an amazingly creative and resourceful lady and truly an inspiration!! Beautiful!! Ox from NH USA
Wonderful video Rosie. It was great to see a before and after. It's always a good day when you show up in the notifications. God bless and can't wait for the next project.
❤omg. You must be so proud of you! You are so inspiring. Slowly but surely you did it and it’s beautiful! A wonderful film to celebrate, beautifully filmed and the music you picked was perfect! I’ve enjoyed watching to take these projects on with quiet determination. You go girl! I cannot wait to see the next room. I hope you will treat yourself to a wooden stool , so you can sit in that room, rest and enjoy the view out the window. Bravo. You did it and it’s fantastic! Congratulations! 🤩
It’s almost hard to believe that’s the same space. Even when you do the side by side shots it’s unbelievable. This is not the same footprint. Your parents are going to be blown away at your progress. You definitely know how to build spaces. Well done, true inspiration Rosie!!!!
So beautiful, warm, light, clean and calming. I love it. That towel rail and shelf are lovely. Well-done. Immense achievement ❤
Indeed! Look and what YOU did!!! 'No construction experience' no longer applies. You got it done and what a lovely outcome. It truly does feel so much better. I remember when the journey began. I thought "oh, what an uphill battle that is." But here we are and I'm so impressed. So excited to see what you do next!!! Thank you so much for sharing!! 💚
It looks so pretty and suited to the surroundings. Great great job
You’re an amazingly talented person.Tak för alltid Rosie❤
What an achievement. Many congratulations on completion
I have loved going on this journey with you. I am in absolute awe of your courage and willingness to just dive in. Your kitchen is lovely. I can’t wait to see what you do next. Bravo!
Fan from your first new home video. Bravo! Your blood, sweat and tears created a beautiful space. I hope you feel empowered and proud of yourself. I am proud of you for sticking with it all the way to success. Looking forward to your next endeavor. Retired contractor rooting for you from 🇺🇸
Words can't describe how impressed I am by your work, Rosie. What you've managed to come up with (on a pretty shoestring budget at that) is amazing!
Fabulous, fabulous effort Rosie. I am so impressed with what you have achieved. Me and my husband retired to France just over a year ago and did a full restoration. We worked and lived in a building site for nearly a year but we did employ some artisans to help us as we needed plumbing and electrics which were beyond our ability. I completely understand how you feel about remembering to look around you and enjoy and appreciate what you have completed. Now you have such a wonderful comfortable kitchen space you can enjoy the rest of the process . Be super proud Rosie. X
Rosie, I discovered your channel just a couple episodes in, and have been so thankful for you to share this amazing change in your kitchen and your whole homestead. Today, I sat down with my breakfast plate of buttery toast, blueberries and my tea to a most enjoyable recap of your accomplishment…I’ve said it before….you are truly an inspiration!
It is so beautiful and "silent"....❤ You are doing SO good!!🙂
Wow!. Simple in design, incredible in detail - not bad for a lass who has limited experience building stuff for herself. This place is going to be a gem when you are finally finished filling it with all your creativity and attention to detail. If you ever sell it down the road - which I suspect you won't - the punters will be flocking to buy it. This room just vibrates with love and honest energy of working with wood. Congratulations its beautiful and your folks must be beaming with pride that their daughter.
You have done a good job. Looked beautiful from what I've seen. wow...Just keep going...
I have watched all of your videos. Looking at this summary I now get the impression you actually know what your are doing. Congratulations! Good job!
💐💐💐
You always brighten my day w your videos. Love what you have done w all your projects, just beautiful 😍
You are so inspiring to me! The courage you have to jump in and do projects completely new. I’m encouraged to tackle some DYI projects of my own. Thank you!!!
WOW!!!! For a long time it did not work on me and I found the blue room with the wallpaper also somehow cute.. But now it looks really great. I was only up in the rather lonely north of Denmark last week and I have to say, you are really brave to live so secluded alone.
Love love love how it turns out!!! So light and airy.
In my opinion, the cost is priceless :)
Well said, “priceless “
This kind of content is not my go to, but your serie was very relaxing and soft.
So every time you popped up in my suggestions, you where like mirage (hägring) for some lay back time!
Keep up!
Amazing! You have done a fantastic job. Let's not forget the experience yuo have gained! You are no longer a novice DIY'er. With this knowledge the other rooms will be much easier.
You're honestly the most interesting and genuine renovation channel I've ever seen. I'm a new viewer, and I'm very impressed by you.
You have been so inspirational- thank you! I’m thinking: “If I take my time, and am careful then, why YES I can do it too”. 🏆
Your trip down Memory Lane in Renovating and Restoring, Your little Home, was very warmly welcomed by us ALL. I Pray You be fully strengthened as You pursue This major project You have set, to MAKE Your HOUSE into a Home. Sending much love Your way.❤❤❤
Its one thing to plan and another thing to execute.... Rosie - you have achieved something, in my opinion, that is difficult to do....design and build a space that is simple and warm without feeling too rustic or too sterile...totally a calming and inviting place....I could see this beautiful cabin in Sweden becoming a much sought after airbnb in the future....
A brilliant job Rosie, well done clever girl.
Bravo! Your practical design and minimalist handiwork has instilled so much more value than the sum of its parts. This once lifeless cabin now has a unique character and charm that I think all of our souls yearn for. Eventually we come to realize, this cannot be obtained from the items of mass production and consumption we have surrounded ourselves with.
I love all of the tongue and groove natural wood look. I love your kitchen. Fantastic job! You should be extremely proud of yourself. You did good girl. Hugs to you sweetie.
Congratulations! All your hard work was worth it. Your kitchen looks worm welcoming and spacious. We actually compared it to a few recently finished interiors that we saw here in the Netherlands and we really like yours. Looking forward to your next room. Good luck!
Well, that’s fantastic Rosie! Now as you say, you need to remember to ‘love’ your kitchen each day and feel confident to go forward with so much more experience to draw on.
It's completely perfect! All of the finishing touches are exactly right. You must be so pleased and proud. Brava! Well done.
Rosie you are so inspiring. It's beautiful x
Love the darker stain choice, love all of the lighting, love your floor to ceiling curtains & especially love all that you’ve accomplished. Such an inspiration! Thank you for sharing
I hope you are wildly proud of your Swedish creative journey. It is amazing. Start a Patreon account, Rosie.
Just fantastic and so eye-pleasing. Another successful self-confidence building exercise, too. And even more joy just around a corner... Congratulations Rosie!!!
love watching these short films whilst I do my own DIY - its the perfect body doubling activity - your voice and the music and watching you just helps my motivation - thank you!
Congratulations Rosie! You have made a very beautiful job with such a small amount of money. Be proud of your self because such beatiful things has been made with your own hands, hard work and a lot of love. Now is time to enjoy all of it. Best wishes from Spain.
Of all the amazing things you've done, I've been the most in awe of you changing the handles on your refrigerator! That was incredible.
Rosie you are incredible.. ❤️ can't wait for our next Sunday adventure s thank you 🙏 x
It's just simply lovely. I'm shocked at how well you did on the cost. Well done..
Take a bow girl. You made it to the finish line in the number one spot! We knew you could do it!
I've probably said this before and I'm gonna say it again...I'm in AWE of you!! Your vision, your talent...I just love watching you and the lovely home you're creating. Thanks for sharing.
Well done your work is amazing and your space is beautiful. Congratulations on your achievement. I am looking forward to your next room.
Your skills at interior design have surely created a wonderful kitchen to enjoy and I'm sure your parents will be blown away when they visit. The guest house turned out great too. Congratulations!
Looks great! Well done!👍🔨🪚
You did an amazing job.
May I ask why you don't have Patreon? It may be a good way for people to help contribute towards your build.
Beautiful! So very happy for you! 🤗
You can be very proud of yourself. Now you have done the hard part of making a kitchen. The rest will be a piece of cake.
Rosie you should be extremely proud of yourself! Women everywhere we can do this because of your encouragement and example ❤️
You have one of the best channels on RUclips! I look forward to every one of the episodes because of your creativity and your kind and gentle spirit, WOW!
Ser jättefint ut Rosie, ljust och hemtrevligt. 👌🏻 Ska bli spännande och se dig renovera nästa rum. 🙂
(Hade varit kul och höra dig prata lite nederländska.) 🙋🏼♀️
Congratulations for the good work , patience, courage, creativity. You should be proud of the result. Rosie, I admire you. I can't wait to see the next project. Bravo encore!
Beautiful, so fresh and spacious. Well done. ☺
What a gorgeous job you've done of the kitchen and boot room. It's been such a privilege to be able to follow along with your progress and celebrate each win with you. Thanks so much for sharing. Onwards with the binge-watching!
I don't think i've ever seen a ceiling that low. You really did a great job, it looks way roomier.
Great job, Rosie !
You must be so proud of your accomplishments. It looks absolutely amazing. Love your Japanese style shelving! PS Your costs did not include your labour. Again bravo to you 🎉
Just hiring an architect to draw plans for what she’s already renovated would cost $US 100 - 250 per hour. That would bump up the costs considerably.
Rosie, you have created an incredible space. It's absolutely beautiful. My favourite area and creation is your kitchen units, I absolutely love the dowels you used to make the shelves.
I'm looking forward to seeing the next room that you do.
Beautiful xxx
That looks like a million dollar kitchen. You are a very talented and inspiring carpenter! Beautiful work.
What a beautiful transformation Rosie! You said you had no building skills when you started. Well, you certainly have some now, lol. How valuable yours are in an age of global rising costs. Your talent and skills might help others afford a place of their own.
Job well done
Ah yes, its time for tea.
I cannot find words to discribe what a beautiful "gem" you have created. It's 6+✴️'s from me. 👏👏👏👏🥰🌺🥰
During the walkthrough I found myself constantly shaking my head in amazement, wonderment of the beauty you have created. Of all your hard work, determination, talent and artistic vision. I’m so glad I found your channel! ❤️
Wow.. you! This is A-MA-ZING! I'm even a little emotional! What a journey and what a result! And all that with no previous building experience, you said. Despite the blood, sweat and tears, I hope you are VERY VERY PROUD of yourself! And honestly, I don't think it's all that expensive. Please don't stop sharing. It's such a joyous journey you're taking us all on, and I love your enthusiasm! I'm excited to see what you're doing for the next room! 🥰🥰🥰
It’s been SO long I honestly cannot remember what it looked like originally. I’m constantly checking to see when and if you have done an upload because I cannot get enough of your videos. You’ve done such an amazing job so far and I can’t wait for your next project x
It's lovely, well done ♥️
Hi Rosie, your kitchen looks amazing! You've done such a wonderful job with it all, I'm very inspired by you.
A joy to follow your journey!
And to think you started with a handsaw and hammer and nails! You came along way and can be proud of what have achieved. Bravo!
I've been following you since you were looking for a cabin.
Even then, you were very creative and determined.
So began the journey with Roaming Wild Rosie.
From the first moment I was impressed.
I want to admit that what impressed me the most
is that you coped with the climate. Many follow you here
on RUclips but few know that Sweden has
very tough climate. You should know that not many
able to withstand the harsh climate.
I don't know how well you knew the meter system
but what I saw told me you were well informed.
Furthermore, purchase of tools and handling of tools
impressive! How many people know how a square hook
works or a circular saw.
Inventive, creative thinking, the list never ends.
I would like to see a book you have written.
Aimed at both women and men.
A book about how a person can take advantage of your creativity and do something big yourself.
The book would also show how a lone woman (human) moves
to an arctic country and shows how to survive four seasons
which is a total of four completely different seasons. Where autumn shows
how mother earth goes to sleep to wake up in spring.
The book can show that a person completely without knowledge of
machines where some machines are quite dangerous if you don't handle them correctly.
Dear Roaming Wild Rosie, I believe that not only I have gained an idol, but many of your followers probably see you as an incredible person.
I see you as a person of great power.
A power that many people lack.
There are over 100,000 abandoned houses in Sweden.
Almost everyone who comes here from the UK and USA gives up
to live in Sweden. The climate breaks most people who were not born here.
Dear Roaming Wild Rosie, I hope you stay for a few more years
even if the frost bites your cheeks, even if the cold wants to take you away
in eternity. Hag hopes that the Nordics' beautiful spring and summer
keeps you there. Sweden needs you as an example.
(Sorry if I have written grammatically wrong or something else crazy but my English is very dusty)
Thanks Kjell, it's been an adventure and it will continue to be one!
The space is beautiful! It’s so calm, warm, airy and peaceful. You did a phenomenal job on all the cabinets, counters & built-ins. Everything looks really lovely.
Love what you have done ! It’s all perfect & wow the price , is great !! I love all the wood , so cozy & warm ❤ I can’t wait to see more. You are blessed
