What fun to watch you lads show us how a laundry room really should look. Walking into the room exudes calm. Well done.
Aww thank you so much! It’s not completely finished but near enough ☺️
My husband passed away 7 years ago. I still miss him. The banter between you two reminds me of how my husband and I went back and forth as we upgraded our home over the years. When you grow old together and have these memories they will mean SO much. And you will have some great stories to tell the kids and grandkids ♥
That’s so true we have so many renovation memories now 🥰
Yikes! This gives the term, Rat Pack, a completely more literal meaning! So much better to realize you have arrived at "sparkling clean!!!" A functioning laundry room makes life easier...that has to be a good feeling! And babies need LOTS of loads of laundry! Brilliant finished look!
Totally! We have been spending so much time in that laundry room lately 😂
@@mytinyestate 'm sure you are! Hope you have some good music piped in as you fold or process all of that baby laundry! "_
I'm PPPPASSIONATE about that MUSTARD!!!! OMG!!!!
Isn’t it lovely 🥰🥰
Love the detailed video showing the realities and complexities of renovating - especially with a partner! The room is not only functional but lovely!
Ahh thank you 🥰
Yeah first !!!! Hi guys, My next half hour is sorted Merlot and tiny estate… best ever!!!!!
Yayyy love that! Thanks!!!
Jam Shed Tempranillo ❤ You won't stop at one though 😊
@@tootsieb11 I’ve tried the Jam Shed our eldest daughter drinks it, um…not a fan. Merlot for me!!
Great laundry. Like you i like all my laundry things together. My one disappointment with ours is that it isn't big enough to have an airing cabinet and ironing space. That would be my dream.❤
Aww yes we need to find a space for that but we fear it’s not big enough either
The new laundry is wonderful. The white of the sink, work surface and white goods is complimented so well by the paint colour.
You are both so talented with your DIY skills.
I hope all is going with your baby son.❤
Ahh thanks so glad you like it 🥰
I promise…..as a mum of 3 boys I get VERY excited about a good laundry 😂😂Guys, you’ve done an amazing job as usual. The colour is spectacular ❤
Haha love that! Honestly despite having our moments while building it we were so excited to have a laundry room and we have spent so many hours there already 😅
You too are so funny honest interesting and of course perfectionists
🤓😂
I share your excitement in having a gorgeous, perfectly organized laundry room!
Thank you so much!!
Confession: so often I skip ahead with projects but you guys are so much fun to watch throughout the whole process. Love your channel- just wish it was longer lol! ❤
Aww so glad you like it 🥰🥰
@@EmilyBoltz I’m the same. Usually skip through loads but watch every second!!
The extra thought and consideration you put into everything is what makes the end results stunning. Don't compromise!
Aww thanks ! Yes never compromise as you end up redoing it if you do!
I’m not one bit surprised that you guys have designed a room that makes me want to do laundry!!!
👏🏻😁🤗🥰
Hahaha awww
Borga you explain jobs/things so well you should do tutorials.
Ahh thanks!
You two work so well together. Its a pleasure to watch your videos.
Ahh thank you 🥰
Oh wow! The effort and detail you guys put into everything you do is incredible. Maybe just a laundry but it's the most beautiful laundry I've ever seen! So looking forward to next week and seeing how little Danteo is getting on.🥰
Thanks so much! We are very pleased with it and can’t wait to show you the little one ☺️
I feel your pain. Designing a functional space can be so hard when you’re trying to retrofit. I have the most confidence in you! I’m new to your channel and think you both have such a great vision for the final product. So genuine!
Aww thank you sooo much!! And 100% it’s a lots more challenging to retrofit than design a house from scratch taking into consideration “how big the kitchen will be” or this it that but it’s all doable 😀
C’mmon guys! Those “problems” should be THE problemsll! Definitely. …and hope you end up doing awesome, since you’ve worked so hard, and the baby deserves it!!!
We hope so too!☺️
I am giggling at yall ! Loving every minute of the process
Aww thanks 🥰
OMG I love that laundry room. It's so astaticly pleasing, who wouldn't love doing laundry now? Dean i love your attention to detail and nit picking to achieve your overall design. The room is fabulous 😍
Ahh thanks! It’s worth thinking through all those little bits as it makes a difference to the end result 🥰
Gorgeous! ❤you two love birds can come and redecorate my house anytime!
Awwwww
I love your discussions or "observations"!!! 😆 🤣 😂 Delightful, amusing and a wonder that you get anything done! ❤ Look at what you do achieve - not only functional but also beautiful. Obviously a match made in heaven. 😊
Aww thanks! Yes always lots of observations 😂😂😂
As with all your transformations, the laundry room looks lovely!
Thank you!!!
Absolutely love your design! Well done
Thank you! Cheers!
You guys are so cute and witty. Your talents of design, construction and decorating are amazing. I look forward to every video.
Aww thank you 🥰
Amazing, what you both can do together is incredible, the best laundry room I ever did see. Well done for another amazing achievement xxx ❤
Thank you 🥰
The laundry looks great! I love the little decorating tips as well. Looking forward to an update on the baby! Congratulations!

I love your style! Such attention to detail and such a calming atmosphere. Best wishes to you and your new baby!
Thank you so much!
Absolutely love this show of the laundry room. You guys are just the best at show, tell and DIY! Transformation is fabulous! Many happy years of washing, drying, ironing and cleaning! 😝😜🤪🥰🤩
Thanks so much!! We are not the best at ironing we must admit, and we have shrunk few items of clothing in the past 😂😂 but we will get there 😜
The laundry room is gorgeous - your attention to detail is amazing ❤
Thank you so much! We are really using it
I have laundry room envy 💛💛💛
🥰🥰
That is such a beautiful laundry room.
Thank you!
You guys never disappoint the laundry looks great ❤❤
Thank you! 🤗
Looking forward to the baby update.
Can’t wait 🥹😀
I would love my utility room/walk way outside to look half as fabulous as yours. As always great work guys💜
Ahh thanks so much!
From rat infested to functional and beautiful! You have given me inspiration to transform my small laundry room. I look forward to seeing you next episode 👶
Aww yay thanks
Greetings from California. I have no idea how you came to be in my RUclips feed, but I am ever so glad you have arrived! ❤ I have been binging on your videos to catch up with you. I am so excited to follow you into parenthood! 🫠
Thank you so much!! And welcome aboard 🥰
I’ve just found this content, interesting, calm and fun
🤎🤎
Another stunning room guys. I love the mustard colour… you have inspired me now for our laundry room .. mwah 💋
Ahh thanks 🥰
You two are an inspiration.. wonderful workmanship thank you for the video ❤❤❤Kate
Thank you 🥰🥰
I love the tutorials! I try to do as much DIY as possible for the little things.🤗🇨🇦
Glad you like them!
Fantastic result!! Love love love the new laundry room!! So many incredible touches to finish it off. You are wizards!! SO excited for your next episode!! Thank you in advance for sharing your AZ adventure with Danteo. xo
Aww thank you so much 🥹🥹
Love love love the new laundry. I’ve been telling all my friends about your channel. Thank you for sharing all the tips.
Yay! Thank you! That will help us a lot!
Aaaa I also want to know! The baby! 😊
🥰🥰
The Laundry looks amazing you both worked so hard at perfecting it & its just Wow!! love it .What a team 😁🧡💚💙
Thank you so much!!
Hello guys - great episode! Really enjoy watching. As usual the result is flawless with great taste and functionality. Especially the new vent and exterior wall lamp are two of those small details that make the difference.
Awww thanks yes we believe slowly changing the little details will make a world of difference in the end!
What a lovely laundry room!
May i suggest a pull out shelf under each of the washer and dryer to set a basket so nothing falls on the floor?
Also keep in mind all of the electrics are susceptible to moisture! So please create ventilation and a water or vapor barrier!
I love everything you do here! So beautiful!
Aww yes we are still sourcing the tray for that ! And thanks so much 🥰
You guys are very talented!
Aww thanks !
Love the mustard color in the laundry room! I can’t wait to see the baby and you guys all together in your happy home❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you!! 😊 can’t wait for next week x
When you were deciding on the color, I looked at that mustard and I thought oh yuck that's about the first thing that I didn't like, but when it was painted like everything else that you do I thought oh that is just beautiful! I really like it against the white.
Aww yay so glad we won you over in the end 🥰
Hi my two favourite people on utube ,the rats are nasty ,but once again you have made it lovely,for the laundry room .One more crossed of on the list .lv Ann ❤️❤️❤️🇬🇧🫶🫶
Let’s hope the rats don’t find a way of getting in again!
Fantastic Imagination with the washroom
Thanks 🥰
We are going to to redo our laundry at some point too and I love the ideas you’ve given!! I’m very keen on having a drying rack suspended from the ceiling that pulls down. Can’t wait to see more of Danteo and your new roles as parents!!
Oh yes!! We really wanted one but we didn’t have enough height in the ceiling
What a wonderful laundry room. I am so glad to see you both struggle with decisions. I am redoing our kitchen and I change my mind and can't decide on colors, placement, and functionality all the time. I love the choices you've made in all your rooms. Just today I was picking out knobs for the cabinets and I see you used very similar ones. I hope all is going smoothly since you've been home. I bet the laundry is being used a lot these days.
You can do it! And absolutely we change our minds lots of times we make lots of “observations” 😅😂😂 we are using soo much the laundry so glad we rushed to do it
Wow I do love your work ethic and everything you do is so creative x how wonderful! Well done for overcoming your laundry room blockage (know that feeling) and the end result was wonderful xxx
Aww thank you 🥰🥰
Fabulous! One consideration..nearly all laundry is created in the bedroom/bath area. A laundry room in that location is a logical conclusion. Next time?
Definetly! We are restricted by using rooms that already existed here 😀
Sooo helpful! We are about to tackle our laundry so the tips were so appreciated. It looks beautiful as with everything you do 😊
Aww thanks! And love to hear that tips might be useful to you! Good luck let us know how you get on!
Found this channel yesterday and what a great find it was! Everything the two of you are doing is beautiful! I will not miss a single upload from now on and i have som much to catch up on as well! Happy days :)
Welcome aboard! We looooove to hear that! Well know that by watching the videos you are helping us so thank you! X
And there are the steel toe boots!
😊
I would put the sink in the centre with the tap in the corner of the sink, so it doesn’t get in the way of the cupboard door and also makes emptying mop buckets easier. Also underneath the washer and dryer before the cupboard underneath, it would be great to put in a pull out shelf, almost like a drawer in which to sit the laundry basket.
Yes about the pull draw we have the plan to do that that’s why you would see a space above the washer drier we just haven’t finished it all yet ☺️
Another brilliant episode can’t wait for the next one ❤❤❤❤❤
It’s going to be a good one ☺️
One of my favorite RUclips channels! Love you guys!
That means the world 🥰
LOOKS GREAT GUYS ❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you! 🤗
Cant wait for an update on the baby👏👏
🥹☺️
Yay laundry room beautiful ….wheelhouse of parent hood 😊
Oh totally! 😆🥰
hello from Costa Rica ❤ it's so relaxing to watch your videos..yesterday i don't know how much video i was watching.. it's 11:07am now and I have very much time to watch.. i love it and i love you two.. ❤❤❤
Awww thanks 🥰
Nice job! 🎉. I have to remember 'i'm not annoying I am just making observations...' 😂😂😂
😂😂
Everything is gorgeous and I’ve watching you both. Great taste in AEG machines…in my own opinion, no better! 💙💙
Love watching
Oh we love these machines 🥰
I love you guys! In the US and i can feel your pain. 2 of my kids joined the military to get away from all the remodeling at our new farm. Said the military would be easier than their mama 😂
Hahahahaha brilliant!
OMG you two are so funny…..the laundry room looks wonderful …….now how is that gorgeous little bundle of joy doing ?????❤❤Donna in Toronto
Thanks! He is really well an gaining weight as he loves his food 😂
Ok boys get a room ... we can supply the jelly LOL
Haha that is soo random hahaha
@@mytinyestate Just watching the two of you bickering. Its so sweet (and yeah ok we do that too)
Love the laundry room ❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks 🥰
Ah flat packs and reno’s test any relationship. We are in the middle of renovating our laundry and not only do I love the colour you used but also how you’ve raised the washer and dryer. Did you have to add extra support to take the weight of the washer when full of clothes and water. I have very poor balance and suffer with vertigo, so for me this would be so helpful. The tip about filling the edges of mdf with wood filler is genius. Can’t tell you how many coats of primer I have used to achieve that.
We used a kitchen cupboard below it so imagine the weight of a heavy stone worktop and other things… the washing machine is an equivalent weight! We did add another piece of timber on the top just to frame it which helped a little more
Great video, great work on the laundry.
Thank you!
I have only just found you so lots of catching up to do looking forward to this ❤
Hope you enjoy! Thank youu 😀
Just wondered, with the new addition to your sweet family have you considered finishing the garden cottage at the main estate and hiring a full time gardener? Love Love Love watching y’all. Sincerely with love from Texas♥️
Oh we love that idea but there’s so much work to get that one finished 🥰
So gorgeous! I love when a laundry room has a window. You have lots of natural light for doing all your baby’s laundry during the day! Yay!
Definitely! I think we are very lucky to have natural light in almost all the rooms ☺️
Laundry room looks great guys. How's Baby Boy?
Aww thanks ! He’s doing good 🥰😆
Beautiful!!🥰🇨🇦
Thank you! 🤗
I love the tutorials!🤗🇨🇦
🥰
WoW! I bought a home in need of renovations and I wish I had half of your talent! (Or that you lived in Connecticut, USA)💕
Wow, thank you! Honestly it has just been a lot of practice over the years ☺️
I love my built in ironing board...it fits between the studs...attaches to the studs once the drywall is in and it looks like a little cabinet...you can even store the iron and spray starch :). But do make sure you choose a location near an electric outlet! Laundry looks fabulous!
I love that!! I wonder if we could do that
@@mytinyestate you should. I almost wrote this same comment. My grandmother had one in her turn of the century old Victorian home. They were very popular back then and in houses up until the 1940’s. They are super handy as you just open the cabinet and fold out the ironing board. I always wished I had one.
Gentleman you ever seem to amaze me…of course you place your front loader/dryer to approx waist height…etc..etc… my other half won’t like that I have updated our TO DO LIST😂😂😂… cannot wait to meet Danteo …well done 👏👏❤️
Haha it’s a game changer ! So much easier
@@mytinyestate ❤️❤️
Great content. Thank You for sharing your journey.
Ahh thanks !
Just perfect 👌 ❤
Thanks!
Absolutely love the laundry room! The cabinets, sick, taps, cabinet knobs and worktops are perfect. ❤
Aww thanks! We do love it ☺️
I find it handy to have cleaning supplies on each floor - not just in one room. But your layout looks FAVULOSO!
That is a good idea! We just thought now with baby have cleaning supplies in that room and on a high shelf
Ah. C'mon boys, remember what the farmer said to the Bartlet tree.. "Grow a pear!" 😅😅
Is that who said that 😆
Sleep deprivation is the worst but worth every moment. Thoughts and prayers with you.
Oh totally 🥰
I wonder if there is a good space for a folding table. I would think on a hinge so it can drop or fold when not in use. I just hate hauling clean laundry to another room to maybe get folded. I'm glad you got this accomplished before bringing the baby back, Lord knows!!!
Yessss folding table! We do have enough space on the side of the sink to fold but I wonder if a folding table is a lot bigger
@@mytinyestate I was thinking about a plank of wood on a foldable hinge. If there is room across from the washer dryer on that opposite wall. That way if you aren't folding lots of stuff it can just be flipped down against the wall. Other thoughts would be something that covers the sink to give you more folding room.
You two men are absolutely fantastic creators ,besides being two lovely human beings ,love love love your channel, best on RUclips, good luck with àll your renervations and with your new beautiful son xxxxxx❤
Ahhh thats so nice of you to say thank you 🥰🥰
Howdy Guys!!! I'm surprised that you didn't use birch edging on the sides of your doors. It's far easier that all the filling the sides. You have beautiful veneered edges! Big bear hugs from Kenny in Ohio, USA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You know we have never used veneered edges but it’s great to know for the future!
@@mytinyestate It comes in a roll & you simply take a hot iron & run it along the edge & the heat of the iron activates the glue. The just trim the edges & your have a beautiful finished door. Then just paint or stain! Maybe that could be help in the future! Hugs!!
If you’re looking to paint those smooth edges of the IKEA cabinets, I can recommend Benjamin Moore’s Stix primer. Lightly the surface first, then Stix, then your surface paint. Did this on my Ikea cabinets in my bathroom two years ago and still going strong!
Amazing! Yes we had professionally painted ikea cabinets before and we notice they still scratch on the more touched areas and being a laundry that we were going to be constantly using it we just wanted to avoid marks but we will be using your advice if we decide to paint it, thanks!
I also want to ….how can you be jealous of a laundry room? 😩😂😂 looks amazing. Greetings from cologne Andy
Ahhhh so glad you like it 🥰
Laundry room of my dreams. Functional and beautiful! Ours is still a work in progress but you given me quite a few ideas.
Excited for next’s week’s episode ❤
I absolutely love to hear that! Thank you so much for watching ☺️
Thank you for coming into my world 🌎 I totally needed you both in my life. ❤ 💜 🍑 💚 your progress and channel brings so much joy and happiness 😊 😃 . 🎉 my happy place
Well that makes us very very happy to hear 💙🩵
