Hello, Danie! I'm a hardworking high school teacher located across Lake Ontario from you in Rochester, NY. It just occured to me how long I've been following you and LOVING your stuff, and that I should let you know how much your work means to me. I think the first video I every watched with you was when Vincenzo (and another Italian guy) helped you do a big (table?) epoxy project. You've come so far since then! Anyway, I'm a huge fan and look forward to your postings all week long. I love your weird, honest, can-do energy. In fact, it just occured to me that maybe I want to be you when I grow up (btw, I'm 52). No joke though, I've been thinking about retiring early from teaching and starting a DIY channel of my own. (Maybe? We'll see!) But thanks so much for inspiring me for years now, and keep on DIYing!
Hi. I’m also a fan of the show and also in Rochester, NY! My daughter is a high school math teacher at CCHS. She has three more years to retire and can’t wait! I do not envy teachers today. Wishing you the best!
@@Clovergirl7934 Well, teaching has its advantages and disadvantages, like everything else! Keep in mind that some of the reasons that teachers tend to retire early is because keeping up that level of energy until age 65 is unlikely. That. and I've also known a few people retired from this profession we love in order to have enough money to retire for real!
@@Clovergirl7934 Teachers are under attack all over the U.S. when we should be thanking them. I am so grateful to my children's (and my own!) teachers. Great teachers open minds not only to knowledge but also to asking questions, increasing human understanding, improving lives and creating beauty.
I love that you were able to find a door that warms your heart. Just imagine all the people who have passed through her over the years and what their purpose was in doing so.🚪 I wish you many years of happiness as she welcomes you when you pass over her threshold into your studio of many possibilities. You did good kid, be proud.🌺❤️
The energy with Lisa there is...puntastic in the very best way. Also, if you set up a coffee station next to the door you NEED a "Tea. Earl grey. Hot." sign for the wall above it. 🖖😂
I would have used the round wood removed from the door to fit in the ugly empty spot below. Some wood shavings, some wood glue, some sand paper and some stain later it'll be a good looking door.
I thought her showing the door piece scrap was foreshadowing and was waiting for her to use it to fill in the hole! 😂 Ah well, still a beautiful reused door.
If the hole for the old door knob on the side of the door is big enough, you could make a tiny little Borrowers’ style room as a hidden treasure. Or hide something else like a Lego figure, a mini painting, crystals, or just paint a little scene in there. It’s possible a tiny battery operated light would fit in there. Then it’s a hidden treasure to see how many people notice and just bring you joy.
Lisa is fantastic. I’m glad we got to meet her and hope she shows up again. The door is amazing! I’m only sad you didn’t build the doorway to fit the door. But you left its character so I’m grateful to see her appreciated as she deserves!
Just wondering, did you build the doorway before you found the door? If you had the door first, could you have built the doorway to fit so you wouldn't have had to cut the bottom?
the door is amazing & glad you're happy with the kickplate workaround. the black on the dark wood really helps to make it less obvious & also intentional. I think I would have probably opted to use some of the cut off timber to fill it in, especially as you cut out a circle disc for the new handle that would be about the right size as the old hole almost. I definitely think that if you're going to have a wash station area that it would be better tucked in the corner here rather than taking up valuable real estate in the middle of the Studio. a landing spot /mudroom / washstation sounds good. Can't wait to see what you end up doing
That door 💖 Danie I used one of those electric pumps for water gallons (I don't know how to describe it in a better way) to make a make shift sink in my garage. It doesn't provide a lot of water per second but I can wash my hands or a paint brush without having to come into the house to do it. I used two of those big water "bottles" (english is not my main language obviously), one with water connected to the faucet pump thingy and I drilled a hole into a bowl (that ended up being my sink) where the dirty water goes. I don't know if I made sense, but my sistem works really well for me. You just have to dispose the dirty water from times to times and fill the other one with clean water when it empties. Hope this idea of mine helps someone who might need it. Lot's of love from a Portugal fan 🥰
Absolutely perfect with the colour of the closet. And it's a perfect balance between a modern closet and an old classic door. Couldn't have found a better door imo
Omgoodness Danie - what a stunning old door - so much character, charm and history - could you imagine if it could talk and share the things it’s seen and heard! 😊 Beautiful 🤩 ❤ I love the black metal accents of the plate and door handle makes it have a hint of industrial feel and compliments the dark wood fabulously! 👏 Perfect match to your creative space - shoutout to Lisa as well! 👍
Great to meet you, Lisa! Oh, Dani, I thought you would reuse the larger piece of wood you cut out for the new knob to fill in the old knob hole, since you didn't remove that segment of the door to shorten the overall height. Love floor outlets. Diggin' the moment of water painting.
The DOOR LOOKS FAB!!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 Because of the Victorian Edwardian style of said door, I see a possible Steampunk moment in the coffee/tea/snack bar to pay homage to that time period. Something like a tall Vic/Edw piece with a center mirror to reflect light and be a melding statement with flush framing like bars of that time. Woodtones, a beautiful counter, storage underneath. A found piece from a salvage place maybe. Just an idea. Brass fixtures...
Great to meet Lisa! LOVE the door! I think the metal plate works great. Because you painted it black it visually doesn’t stick out. The studio is looking FANTASTIC!!!
The green glass with the green cabinets works so well! I kinda wish you had made the metal kick thing longer but as long as you love it it’s perfect :)
This door is gorgeous and had a doorknob in a really weird place. It's lucky you found it because now it's got a happy home! I really love how the green from the door draws your eye to your storage and vice versa. I personally love the black metal plates. I'm an industrial girl at heart and it just makes it feel like the door came from some factory from a hundred years ago. Like it was the boss's office door.
For the old hole in the door you could cut it into a rectangle with the jigsaw then make a template and put it on the piece you cut off the door then you can glue it in place fill it with wood filler or make a mix with the sawdust to fill in the gaps and then use wood crayons to make it look natural then clear coat it to give it a seamless look For the entry way I would use the space next to the green built in as a space to place bags and jackets could make a bench with hooks or have a coat rack, on the right would be a great space for a coffee and snack area, could also use it to add shelves with buckets of art supplies like brushes and such since you’re thinking of putting the sink there. could have some cabinets on bottom to store cleaning supplies as well. Could give the sink a built in look by putting a cabinet front on hinges and a push to open system so when you need to empty it you can just push and open it.
The door is beautiful. I love the glass and the touch of green is perfect, my favorite for color for home decor. My suggestion - to the right of the door - your intended wash station and a coffee bar/drink station. Narrow counter, small fridge, under counter, off to one side and pen shelves above. Counter and shelves, the same color as the door.
It’s all coming together beautifully and I think the door color and floor color look great together. The green stained glass pieces tie in so well with the green storage cabinet, it’s like you planned that or something 😂
Yes yes, yes, brass metal trim on the bottom to match the plate covering the old door handle holes. I was think that just as u said it. Such a gorgeous door. ❤❤❤❤
I love this door!!! I really wish you picked a more whimsical doorknob! Your personality is whimsy and creative and I can see you walking into your magical realm every time you enter this space! Ijs🦋
Your door is absolutely gorgeous!! You have done an amazing job on your studio. Your watercolor is beautiful. I just love watching you build and create. You are so very talented!! 🩷
Fun thought for later, maybe make mini borrower sized door to fit onto the metal plate. Assuming a magnet will stick to the plate, it could be a project that can be switched or changed up according to the seasons/holidays. Love you videos ❤
Hi Danie. There are many types of portable sinks with water tanks. Hair salon, gardening, and camping to name a few. Even ones within a table. Your door looks amazing 👏 ❤
The door is beautiful! Well done, Danie 👏👏👏 And thank you for introducing us to Lisa. She is a brilliant editor and so funny. Love the doggy shots too! Have a great week!
Annnnd...your foray into Doorland has inspired myself to return to the thrift store where I found a lovely sheer creamy embroidered linen fabric, abt 6+ yds to make some easy quick sheer curtains for my windows. So I did. 🎉
Beautiful door. I have to agree with some of the commenters though… It would have been nice to raise the door to not lose the proportions at the bottom, and to either fill in the hole with wood or perhaps another proportion could have helped if covering with metal. Everyone is different. I see some love the metal. It doesn’t look like a door plate to me-more like a patch and something the eye is drawn to that takes away from the rest of the door. I will say… I hate to be critical. You do amazing work and I think my perfectionism sometimes stops me from getting things done. That said. If there is another solution to fixing the hole still, I think it would look a lot better, as well as the idea you mentioned of a kick plate or something horizontal at the bottom to help with creating the illusion of a bit more of a border and proportion at the bottom of the door to remedy that chopped off vibe.
Oh my goodness. I so enjoy watching every minute of you, you are so creative and talented. I love, love, love this door♥‼ In my younger yeare (I'm now 77 - OMG) I loved to make stained glass windows, lamps, etc. This looks so beautiful in your shop. I was thrilled for you when you found it but now to see it in it's place -WOW!
Just wondering if the piece you cut out for the new handle could have been used to fill the original hole?? 🤷🏼♀️ I love the door, it fits the room perfectly!
Music was excellent this video - appropriate and no irritating lyrics. And that shot of Kenobi looking up from the floor was lovely. Great effort team. My suggestion for your entry wall is that if you put a bench seat and coffee station, or anything structural, just make sure you have plenty of turn room to haul long bits of timer of heavy equipment up the stairs and through the lovely doorway.
Happy Saturday! The door is beautiful! Loved meeting Lisa, she really gets you and your vibe. I totally get the need to do a slow creative moment, settles my brain! Hugs to pup pup!
❤love the door. Your blank wall? What about a coat rack as you walk in. A small bench to sit to put your slippers on for those cold days to feel cozy. And your coffee drink station. Love your studio 😊
You are such a bright light to my Saturday mornings. Love how the green cabinets are echoed in the green glass of the door. For the area beside the door, I think start with a bench for people to put their stuff down and let that flow into a counter top for your hot/cold combos and wash station. There are a lot of people who have converted vans to travel in that use that pump sink you had mentioned in your video. I think you could make that look really lovely. Almost wish you could have put in some kind of dumb waiter to bring the really heavy stuff up and down the stairs (like the water for your pump sink). But, you could definitely build muscle this way!
Oh Danie that door is so beautiful and you fixing that old open spot with the black metal looks so great, and making it a bit shorter by sawing the bottom off that much gives you that pretty wood to build a shelf. The trim around the door really looks so good and also along the bottom of the walls. This space is really looking so gorgeous and is a great work area for you. I think having like a coffee area with a way to have some water to clean things would be so essential for you as a hard worker. Thanks so much again for sharing another great video that again impressed me. Have a great weekend and I will wish you lots of blessings, sending love and hugs, bye!! 🥰🥰🙏🙏👍💝💕💜💜💜💜
Just what I needed to give me the energy to tackle an unfinished job of my own. I think the space near the door would be a lovely gallery wall until you decide what you want there longer term
The door is gorgeous! I personally think a coffee bar/cold-hot combo drink/drop your stuff area elevates a space. And of course I know you would make it super cool looking! Really great video and your editor did an awesome job in her cameo! ❤❤❤
Maybe use a piece from the bottom, that you cut off, as a wood repair patch where the old doorknob hole is. I think that would keep with the vintage vibe and wood workers/furniture makers did make repairs that way. LOVE the door 💚
Amazing door and you did a great job installing it. You had a cool opportunity to fill the hole either a giant green marble or even two that would have complimented the green glass in the window, but still honored the character of the door. But I loved what you did also!
Great work Danny!! The door looks Amazing! Yes, yes on the coffee/drink station beside the door. Also maybe that’s where you could hang your beautiful DIY Danny sign from the shack. A beautiful nod from the past. Always looking forward have a great day you’re awesome!!🙌🏼👏🏼🫶🏼❤️
You really are the one that knows what is needed there but I wish you would paint that one diagonal wall of funky color because you’ve got the the intense green and that would just be fun just to see something that you would not normally see instead of Machi Machi
I can't push like so I'm telling u in this comment I love watching u I look forward to it every week keep on doing ur thing and I'll c u next week love u
The door is beautiful. I am so impressed by your skills. Your studio is well on its way! Oh, and I love the water color you painted. So happy for you! 😊
That door is stunning!!! Thought so when I first saw it and still love it. Your “work arounds” turned out well also. Looks so great in the space!! Well done!! ❤❤❤
Good morning and happy Saturday!! The door looks perfect! I absolutely love the touch of stained glass. That side wall looks like the perfect spot for a little mini fridge kitchen area with the washing up sink. Maybe put a hook on the wall for bags- keep them off the floor and off the counters.
I genuinely feel like we need a more creative doorknob! I fun short on you painting a custom ceramic knob with those pens you featured would be amazing or a vintage glass knob

OMG DEADDDDD I LOVE IT
It was palpable, I noticed that too.
😂😂😂❤
oh yes, perfect!! (Make it so!)
I would have used the round wood removed from the door to fit in the ugly empty spot below. Some wood shavings, some wood glue, some sand paper and some stain later it'll be a good looking door.
What a good idea!
Yes! I had exactly the same thought...😃
Yesss!
I thought her showing the door piece scrap was foreshadowing and was waiting for her to use it to fill in the hole! 😂 Ah well, still a beautiful reused door.
I thought that too, but. . .
I vote for a coffee station bc every creative space needs coffee. And a mini fridge ofc for your hot/cold combos
I second that vote haha
I love Lisa's personality. You two fit together so well. Such fun to peek at your dynamic
If the hole for the old door knob on the side of the door is big enough, you could make a tiny little Borrowers’ style room as a hidden treasure.

Or perhaps cut some off top so it remained more balanced.
That door is exactly what was needed. So glad everything is working out perfectly for you. Love the colors!
Warms the space up too! ❤️
Just wondering, did you build the doorway before you found the door? If you had the door first, could you have built the doorway to fit so you wouldn't have had to cut the bottom?
oh I'm so glad we got to meet her!!two magic makers in the same room!

Stupid tape always gets stuck 😒

Love that you chose the green paint color and it compliments those colored glass pieces in the door. Absolutely perfect.
OW-OW-OW - CH!!!
Cutting that beautiful door!
OWWW!
Personally, I would have opened the height of the door way!
Still beautiful!
❤️❤️💫
I agree! What a shame. I love that door.
I was wondering about that. My guess is that the structure of that wall would have been compromised if she heightened the door opening.
Great to meet you, Lisa! Oh, Dani, I thought you would reuse the larger piece of wood you cut out for the new knob to fill in the old knob hole, since you didn't remove that segment of the door to shorten the overall height. Love floor outlets. Diggin' the moment of water painting.

First off - I love the metal plate - it adds character. It is beautiful and the studio is coming together. I love love love your vision. 💕
Yes a coffee station and a mini fridge and shelf space for cups and plates would be nice on that wall .
Right! I mean it MUST be a hot/cold beverage station😅🎉
Great to meet Lisa! LOVE the door! I think the metal plate works great. Because you painted it black it visually doesn’t stick out.
The studio is looking FANTASTIC!!!
... And she's just doing electrical while the paint dries after she upcycled and installed a door!😍
The green glass with the green cabinets works so well! I kinda wish you had made the metal kick thing longer but as long as you love it it’s perfect :)

For the entry way I would use the space next to the green built in as a space to place bags and jackets could make a bench with hooks or have a coat rack, on the right would be a great space for a coffee and snack area, could also use it to add shelves with buckets of art supplies like brushes and such since you’re thinking of putting the sink there. could have some cabinets on bottom to store cleaning supplies as well.

Your moment of crafty was a moment of zen for me. Inspired me to grab my water colors ❤
It’s all coming together beautifully and I think the door color and floor color look great together. The green stained glass pieces tie in so well with the green storage cabinet, it’s like you planned that or something 😂
Yes yes, yes, brass metal trim on the bottom to match the plate covering the old door handle holes. I was think that just as u said it. Such a gorgeous door. ❤❤❤❤
I love the watercolor you did! You should consider selling your work. I'd buy that one for sure!! 💜
edit: And the door looks GREAT!!!
So glad no terrible glass disasters occurred during install. She's gorgeous!
That door is absolutely beautiful. Such a great find.

Fun thought for later, maybe make mini borrower sized door to fit onto the metal plate. Assuming a magnet will stick to the plate, it could be a project that can be switched or changed up according to the seasons/holidays. Love you videos ❤
Hi Danie. There are many types of portable sinks with water tanks. Hair salon, gardening, and camping to name a few. Even ones within a table. Your door looks amazing 👏 ❤
I love that door! The stained glass and the built in storage unit look so good together!
The door is beautiful! Well done, Danie 👏👏👏 And thank you for introducing us to Lisa. She is a brilliant editor and so funny. Love the doggy shots too! Have a great week!

The door was a great addition to your space. And the kickplate added such an awesome touch. Great work Dani 🎉
The door looks perfect. I agree just leave the “character “ because it’s a beautiful door no need to try to make it look new. ❤ Good job 👍
That door is BEAUTIFUL! 🤩 Love the handle - to me it compliments the metal in the stained glass. Just fabulous 🎉
Ah! That door is just so beautiful and I love how it came together. It looks soooooooo good.
So much character in this door! Just like the installers.😊
It's a beautiful door and it looks amazing in the space. The green glass in the door compliments the storage unit beautifully. Another job well done ❤

Maybe use a piece from the bottom, that you cut off, as a wood repair patch where the old doorknob hole is. I think that would keep with the vintage vibe and wood workers/furniture makers did make repairs that way. LOVE the door 💚

Beautiful job Danie! The door is beautiful and the stained glass picks up on the gorgeous green storage cupboards!!❤️❤️❤️
The door looks great. You make everything you do look so easy. Enjoy your beautiful studio.
Amazing door and you did a great job installing it. You had a cool opportunity to fill the hole either a giant green marble or even two that would have complimented the green glass in the window, but still honored the character of the door. But I loved what you did also!
Danie, I just love watching your channel. You are so talented, creative and comical. I look forward to watching you every Saturday. Thank you❤
Fantastic work Danie and Lisa! Love the door and the watercolour flowers. Just a beautiful video all round. Thank you!
Great work Danny!! The door looks Amazing! Yes, yes on the coffee/drink station beside the door. Also maybe that’s where you could hang your beautiful DIY Danny sign from the shack. A beautiful nod from the past. Always looking forward have a great day you’re awesome!!🙌🏼👏🏼🫶🏼❤️
Beautiful job, Danie 😊 I remember you buying the door. It’s so lovely watching your vision for your dream studio space coming to life ❤
Love how good this turned out! And really love the ‘Captain’s Quarters’ sign!!!
You really are the one that knows what is needed there but I wish you would paint that one diagonal wall of funky color because you’ve got the the intense green and that would just be fun just to see something that you would not normally see instead of Machi Machi
LOVE THE DOOR!!!!
And I LOVE your energy, Danie.
U are one of my favourites go to RUclipsrs. Thankyou Danie
Everything about the door is perfect! Love how your studio is coming together!!
It’s a beautiful door, Dani. I imagined a beautiful old ornamental piece to cover your old doorknob hole, though. I really enjoy your Saturday videos.
STUNNNNNNING!! The door is amazing but I truly think the 'kick plate' makes it pop, it looks like an old bank or post office door.
I can't push like so I'm telling u in this comment I love watching u I look forward to it every week keep on doing ur thing and I'll c u next week love u
How bout a vintage dresser to repurpose for the wash/drop off station?
Ohhhh there’s a thought!
Beautiful! Love that door. Good job. Have a blessed day
…CAPTAIN’S quarters …I thought it said CONTAINS quarters and was trying to figure out if it came from a piggy bank 😂. That makes so much more sense!
The door is beautiful. I am so impressed by your skills. Your studio is well on its way! Oh, and I love the water color you painted. So happy for you! 😊
That door is stunning!!! Thought so when I first saw it and still love it. Your “work arounds” turned out well also. Looks so great in the space!! Well done!! ❤❤❤
Good morning and happy Saturday!! The door looks perfect! I absolutely love the touch of stained glass. That side wall looks like the perfect spot for a little mini fridge kitchen area with the washing up sink. Maybe put a hook on the wall for bags- keep them off the floor and off the counters.
A Belfast sink on top of an old unit as a vanity with a fresh water and grey water tank storage underneath would look stunning as a wash station xx
Using your pump (maybe a foot pump or electric if you could run it there) x
Giving me motivation to install a new old door on my bathroom ❤ your space is looking amazing! I’m eagerly waiting for the next instalment.
Love the little watercolor that you did for yourself! I get that way too, sometimes you just have to make something for yourself!
Looks great- I wasn’t sure what the metal plates would look like, but they look good.
I genuinely feel like we need a more creative doorknob! I fun short on you painting a custom ceramic knob with those pens you featured would be amazing or a vintage glass knob
