As someone nearing my 80s it's fascinating to me how designs and techniques go in and out of fashion. Aged about 8 or 9, in 1953 or 54, I watched my Mam repaint a wall with very much this method except she used distemper. It's an ancient product but cheap, and she used several light colours and scrunched up rags and mixed them directly on the wall. It was easier and way cheaper than wallpaper which was more the thing back in England then. Each time I see this done I'm taken right back to watching her pounce away, and how pretty it looked. It's still a lovely technique! 😍
@Beruthiel45 thanks for sharing this. I lost my mom and dad in 2020 and I loved the stories mom would share with me about their home when she was a child. My grandparents raised 12 children in that original 2 room house. My grandfather later added a kitchen and bathroom and enclosed the back porch as a Laundry room. The family home was sold in 2019. It had a total of 5 rooms and a bathroom. It still boggles my brain how my grandparents raise their large family in such a small home. I’m sure Love was a big factor. 🤟🏼🤍
Thankful you’re feeling better but man was I having Danie withdrawls and concerned about you. Not today it’s SaturDIY all is right with the world again. Raining outside cocoa and Danie inside perfect day.
Really the difference some little changes can make in a room. Before it seemed as if the headboard was a miniature and now we can see it as "fully grown". Forgive if my explanation is a little confusing but english is not my mother language 😊
Danie, we are renovating an 1800’s schoolhouse so I feel your pain. Nothing is ever square or level 😂 I’ve learned to say the house has a lot of character 😂 I absolutely love your channel and all of your diys. Now if you could just share some of your energy. Have a wonderful weekend and be much love from Maine ❤️❤️
Love the pop of burgundy/wine in the bedding! Lowering the bed is not only functional but gives the illusion of a larger space. The darker stained closet doors, side tables, and headboard create such a relaxing vibe against the lighter walls. No doubt you’ll both enjoy it!
Love that ulu. Amongst the Inuit, where this knife design has been used for thousands of years) it’s a woman’s knife. They are widely used in Nunavut/NWT, Nunatsiavut/Labrador. They are very multi-functional and some are very beautiful. The shape alone is gorgeous. Edited to add WOW! That bedroom is awesome.
Danie, I recommend that the next time you do a sponge effect on a wall, you use some glaze mixed with the paint, a glaze made for wall decor, or if you don’t find some, you can use a medium to make the paint dry slower, I think that Lefranc & Bourgeois has one, because what you did is very difficult to do on big surfaces with a paint which dries so fast. It will allow you to do the touch-ups right away and you won’t need to correct anything later. Also sharing different tasks is better than two people doing the same thing, because each person has a different way to do it, so your method was the right now. More you will put some glaze or medium in the mix, more it will become transparent but also it will dry slower. So it’s up to you to decide the right mix. I used to work for an English brand named Polyvine which was making these kinds of glazes, and we were selling to the professionals, I was doing some demonstrations and decorating walls to show the process. Believe me, it will make your task much easier. I don’t think that this brand still exists. Maybe Annie Sloan sells that stuff? I’m not sure, she used to work with Polyvine too, that was many, many years ago. Anyway, nice bedroom, I really love the shelf.
So nice to see u again. My dear friend don't feel bad for taken care of ur health. We do love and respect u. Thank you for taken the time for doing videos. 🙏🏻🥰🇵🇷Mucho Amor..
The space looks so much more elevated now! It was beautiful before but it’s so much more put together now. Amazing work as always, it’s so cool seeing how your style changes over time!!
Great to see you back! Hope your break was relaxing- glad you’re feeling better too. I have to admit that my Saturday mornings are so much better with a Danie video. Got an idea for your ceiling light- what about using a pot light and just painting something around it? I can see you as Michelangelo!!
I love how simple it is. Yet every thing in there is so detailed and beautiful. Ahhhh this is just..yes. beautiful beautiful beautiful. Especially with that wardrobe. Love it.
This is beautiful! The pendant lights aren’t my favorite on their own but, them with everything they look pretty neat! I love the color you stained your headboard and your bedding. ✨
I keep picturing a light fixture that is flush but covers a lot of ceiling space, like tree branches with multiple bulbs spread throughout. I love that wardrobe so much, and the new live edge shelf. Great work!
Wow!! Totally inspiring makeover. So cozy and beautiful! My only suggestion would be to cover the light/lamp cords. Perhaps paint beige or wrap with twine? Just a small suggestion! Thank you for sharing your talents, and vision. I love how you take many elements, and bring them together in a totally 'you' way!! 💗
I have a hard time finding ceiling lights i like too. But I think what would look nice are terracotta or a soft ceramic flushmount light. Or my go to would be recessed lights, maybe embellished? Or could do like most hotel rooms and don't have a ceiling light.
Oh Danie, it looks frigging awesome 😁love it so cosy, the dark wood is so warming and that burgundy wow, well done, so enjoy watching your videos. Have a great weekend and enjoy xx☀️🌻🐝💫
Love the wood elements and stain choices Danie. That wardrobe make over !! Walls turned out great. How about Edison bulbs. they come in that large round shape.
What about doing a little upstand style case in a slim cut of wood along the whole length of the shelf to hide the top of the bracket. I hope you eventually clad the shelves to give them a bit more of a high end look to go with everything else
I absolutely love the shelf. I kinda wanted to keep the moss and bark. Haha And oh my gosh I love the linens! The burgundy is so rich against the cream and greige. I would love that. And and and that mirror is lovely as well. Great job. 💕
Danie, you truly knocked this one out of the park!!!! Not a beige person myself BUT with all the rest of the bedroom pieces, it’s simply gorgeous. Aloha from Hawaii 🌺
Every touch made it perfect😙🤌🏼 Chef kiss, the vision is accomplished♠️🔥 Just a little touch of the rug being a little more out to the wardrobe will be perfect to finish it..(I mean not being under the side tables might do it🤩)
Wow, what a great re-do. I agree about greige, my other fave new word is squoval for that rounded square fingernail shape! I was thinking for your ceiling light could you use a slice of natural wood? Cut out a central ring shape, fit some frosted glass/perspex, and have the wood with an abstract shape for the outer edges. Then hang it slightly lower from the ceiling with metal suspension wire? Might give some interesting light patterns round the room? Have a wonderful rest of your day and thank you for the inspiration, I'm just starting to plan my bedroom makeover, including a cotton rug on the bed for extra warmth and texture. 🥰
Wow I love the stained wicker table. It makes it warmer and richer looking. I also love the headboard stain. It looks beautiful. Your whole room turned out amazing. One thought for you? Would your paper bowl work to cover your light frame on your ceiling? I think the painting you did is fine, just a thought if you don't love it. And it would tie it to your bedside lights which are so cool.
What if you just added some twigs/branches to the ceiling light? Or made a shade like the ones that you've used for your bedside lamps, but used the current shade as a base to build it off of? Or even make some leaves or other organic shapes out of polymer clay and attach those to the base? I picture something kind of elven/LoTR-esque for you. Or maybe even like cottage witch vibes.
Wow that is amazing. I love it 😍 And you gave me the inspiration. I obsess limewash technique but in my country i couldn't find to this kind of paint but I can use your technique 😍 I'm so excited.
beautiful, but to protect your box springs from dust, I would put a fitted sheet on, the color of the wall or the springs itself...it well keep the dust off the box....
A little aplaus to you editor 9sorry fogot your name) 👏👏👏👏👏👏👍 you doing a great job. I love the little "gimmicks" I really would have thought you are a beige girl, becouse it is not white but a nice tone. I ones painted a room in "eggshell" and "butterhoney"...loved the color. I like your style a lot...if it have to have a name what about "Daniecosy" or "hygge" thats denish and means a special kind of cosy. I made my lamp for my living room and my bed room out of papermachè 😁 love it. 🌼🌻🌼🌻🌼🌻🌼🌼

@@ViKee010 Most definitely. 😊💞
I love this!
Thankful you’re feeling better but man was I having Danie withdrawls and concerned about you. Not today it’s SaturDIY all is right with the world again. Raining outside cocoa and Danie inside perfect day.
😂😂 ohhhh love a good snuggly rainy day!
Honestly lowering that bed made such a difference! Being able to see the wood behind it! I’m in love 😍
it made the entire room feel bigger
Agreed!!
Totally agree! ♥
Stunning!
Really the difference some little changes can make in a room. Before it seemed as if the headboard was a miniature and now we can see it as "fully grown". Forgive if my explanation is a little confusing but english is not my mother language 😊

Edited to add WOW! That bedroom is awesome.
Woke up at 8 am and was immediately like DIY DANIE TIME
Grab your coffee! 💕
Absolutely gorgeous, I just want to to crawl into bed and binge watch old film movies from the 40s,50's. You did an awesome job.
I think you should maybe by glass rounds for the tops of your nightstands. It will protect them from dirt getting in the cracks.
That wine red color is just perfection
RIGHT?!?
The bedroom is lovely. I am so happy that you love it. I am not of a fan of the pendants, but that doesn't matter.
Lowering the bed was like *the* best choice!
"Modern organic" tends to be the right vibe haha
The wall treatment reminds me of ⛅️ on a tranquil overcast day. Zen. Lot of work, but zen. The color on the side tables looks like chocolate 🍫.
Everyone is still painting wooden and your create a wardrobe with wooden tones as the main feature. You're radical! 😍😍🤣🤣
I absolutely adore this space! It feels like a hug, or a warm mug of spiced tea on a cool fall day. 😊
Happy to have you back, Danie! ❤

eclectic. that sums it up. that makes it Danie-style. gorgeous!
So nice to see u again. My dear friend don't feel bad for taken care of ur health. We do love and respect u. Thank you for taken the time for doing videos. 🙏🏻🥰🇵🇷Mucho Amor..
Glad you are feeling better! Take as much time as you need I will always wait for your videos my favorite diyer!
Awe thank you Katerina! So appreciate it 💜💜
The way you describe your style is exactly what I want
The space looks so much more elevated now! It was beautiful before but it’s so much more put together now. Amazing work as always, it’s so cool seeing how your style changes over time!!
Great to see you back! Hope your break was relaxing- glad you’re feeling better too. I have to admit that my Saturday mornings are so much better with a Danie video. Got an idea for your ceiling light- what about using a pot light and just painting something around it? I can see you as Michelangelo!!
I like both styles but the new one looks so elevated! you could design hotels
Ohh wow. What a compliment! Thank you!
I agree, I feel that the only thing the old bedroom needed was to lower the bed. But the new bedroom is so much more Danie!
Love it all but the lamps.
Love, love, love the dark stain on the closet and headboard. They look so rich.
So happy to see your face 😊! I'm happy you are feeling better.
It is beautiful! Would love to have a cozy, overstuffed chair in the room to sit in paradise!
Try wrapping the light ring(ceiling light) with rope or jute to add organic texture. Love the room.
Good morning! I've missed you! Glad you're feeling mucho refreshed!
Mucho 😂
You could add trim to the ceiling light to make it look fluted or tambered.
I love how simple it is. Yet every thing in there is so detailed and beautiful. Ahhhh this is just..yes. beautiful beautiful beautiful. Especially with that wardrobe. Love it.
Those tables and lamps, that shelf! The headboard redo! I could go on!!! You nailed it on relaxing and cozy calm. ✨️
The wardrobe doors are EVERYTHING! 😍😍 Love the warm, cozy vibe 🤎
I would also recommend getting some glass cut to go on those end tables. It will keep them nicer for longer!
Love the painting. Room looks light & airy but grounded with the accents. 💛
I love live edge natural shelf and purple hair.
This is beautiful! The pendant lights aren’t my favorite on their own but, them with everything they look pretty neat! I love the color you stained your headboard and your bedding. ✨
dropping that bed was such a game changer! it makes you able to actually see the rest of the room and all the work you put into it!
I also want to refresh my bedroom. Love the wood, feels calm.
Sanctuary...party of two.👍❤
I keep picturing a light fixture that is flush but covers a lot of ceiling space, like tree branches with multiple bulbs spread throughout. I love that wardrobe so much, and the new live edge shelf. Great work!
Turned out just the way you envisioned it beautiful.
Find a short wicker basket and use for your ceiling light
I also love portraits of women! I have a whole haunted woman wall. I need to check out that Etsy shop!
The editing in this is on point 👌😂
Love it, You are so talented and funny at the same time. Love watching you remodel your home.
Wow!! Totally inspiring makeover. So cozy and beautiful!
My only suggestion would be to cover the light/lamp cords. Perhaps paint beige or wrap with twine? Just a small suggestion!
Thank you for sharing your talents, and vision. I love how you take many elements, and bring them together in a totally 'you' way!! 💗
Another dazzling day by Danie
It reminds me of my grandma's house not the look so much as the feeling ,I love it
Your bedroom turned out really beautiful. Love the Red colour on your bed.
THAT PORTRAIT 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
I have a hard time finding ceiling lights i like too. But I think what would look nice are terracotta or a soft ceramic flushmount light. Or my go to would be recessed lights, maybe embellished? Or could do like most hotel rooms and don't have a ceiling light.
Oh Danie, it looks frigging awesome 😁love it so cosy, the dark wood is so warming and that burgundy wow, well done, so enjoy watching your videos. Have a great weekend and enjoy xx☀️🌻🐝💫
Love the wood elements and stain choices Danie. That wardrobe make over !! Walls turned out great. How about Edison bulbs. they come in that large round shape.
It’s beautiful. But I knew it would be. 👍🏼
the bed being lower made it feel so much bigger. i hadnt even realized how cramped it seemed before. BEAUTIFUL!!!
I say keep that ceiling light and your man will be glad. He is very tall and that room has crazy lines.
Have the same short wall challenge. Love this room!!!
Really lovely. The room feels like a painting.😊
Danie you have made the room so cool. I love the burgundy.
Beautifully done. It's so elegant yet refreshing. You incorporated so many elements to set the mood for your nightly dreams.
😊❤
What about doing a little upstand style case in a slim cut of wood along the whole length of the shelf to hide the top of the bracket.
I hope you eventually clad the shelves to give them a bit more of a high end look to go with everything else
I absolutely love the shelf. I kinda wanted to keep the moss and bark. Haha And oh my gosh I love the linens! The burgundy is so rich against the cream and greige. I would love that. And and and that mirror is lovely as well. Great job. 💕
Love love love the warmth and coziness I can see why you want to stay there
Danie, you truly knocked this one out of the park!!!! Not a beige person myself BUT with all the rest of the bedroom pieces, it’s simply gorgeous. Aloha from Hawaii 🌺
The room looks amazing my favorite thing is the close🥰
Every touch made it perfect😙🤌🏼 Chef kiss, the vision is accomplished♠️🔥 Just a little touch of the rug being a little more out to the wardrobe will be perfect to finish it..(I mean not being under the side tables might do it🤩)
You are BRILLIANT! Glad you’re feeling better. 🥰❤️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
loved seeing how happy this space made you!
That knife is for everything not just for veggies lol. Good job on the makeover as well!!
the lower bed makes a huge difference
The bedroom is FANTASTIC!!!❤
Wow, what a great re-do. I agree about greige, my other fave new word is squoval for that rounded square fingernail shape! I was thinking for your ceiling light could you use a slice of natural wood? Cut out a central ring shape, fit some frosted glass/perspex, and have the wood with an abstract shape for the outer edges. Then hang it slightly lower from the ceiling with metal suspension wire? Might give some interesting light patterns round the room? Have a wonderful rest of your day and thank you for the inspiration, I'm just starting to plan my bedroom makeover, including a cotton rug on the bed for extra warmth and texture. 🥰
I feel like painting the light a metallic color would add a different texture look and still look lovely… a matte gold maybe?
Your bedroom looks so warm & cozy now. It has inspired me but can you come and make over my bedroom 🙏🏻 I have trouble bringing it all together 😏
It's soooo beautiful! Can I just check in and stay til the end of my life? 😍
Wow I love the stained wicker table. It makes it warmer and richer looking. I also love the headboard stain. It looks beautiful. Your whole room turned out amazing. One thought for you? Would your paper bowl work to cover your light frame on your ceiling? I think the painting you did is fine, just a thought if you don't love it. And it would tie it to your bedside lights which are so cool.
Ive definitely thought about creating some cool light for the ceiling using the same technique!
Paint job is beautiful.
Headboard is beautiful!!!
Love your channel and your fun, beautiful laugh!! Your creativity in simplicity is beyond measure. Thank you for sharing!
Good morning. Glad to see you.
Absolutely stunning! Lol please come do my room now! 😂😂😂😂😂
Love the wicker tables!!!!💖great job on everything!!!
Really, really like it, and I have that exact rug!!! 🤗💙
What if you just added some twigs/branches to the ceiling light? Or made a shade like the ones that you've used for your bedside lamps, but used the current shade as a base to build it off of? Or even make some leaves or other organic shapes out of polymer clay and attach those to the base? I picture something kind of elven/LoTR-esque for you. Or maybe even like cottage witch vibes.
Looks AMAZING!! I love the bed lower, makes a huge difference
Wow that is amazing. I love it 😍 And you gave me the inspiration. I obsess limewash technique but in my country i couldn't find to this kind of paint but I can use your technique 😍 I'm so excited.
Your room looks so much bigger!
I love how the room turned out! The chocolate brown was the perfect stain to bring everything together.
This is random but noticed new finger tattoos on Danie and I love them❤
beautiful, but to protect your box springs from dust, I would put a fitted sheet on, the color of the wall or the springs itself...it well keep the dust off the box....
This came out so beautiful your really killed this look and more. So creative with your hands!! Bravo!!
Stunning!! As always Danie! Enjoy the new vibe! Gorgeous! Those lights are spectacular and make it!
Glad you're feeling better! Love the makeover!
A little aplaus to you editor 9sorry fogot your name) 👏👏👏👏👏👏👍 you doing a great job. I love the little "gimmicks"
I really would have thought you are a beige girl, becouse it is not white but a nice tone. I ones painted a room in "eggshell" and "butterhoney"...loved the color.
I like your style a lot...if it have to have a name what about "Daniecosy" or "hygge" thats denish and means a special kind of cosy.
I made my lamp for my living room and my bed room out of papermachè 😁 love it.
🌼🌻🌼🌻🌼🌻🌼🌼
Well done looking calm and comfy. Enjoy.
Those sheets are worth it. No matter how much. They are the perfect treat for the eye!
The whole room is so homey!
Beautiful cozy and inviting bedroom. Terrific!!!
