I certainly have enjoyed watching the progress. It is a especially enjoyable because I have known Jay most of my life. I had the privilege of working with him on a variety of construction jobs over the years. Not only is he a great carpenter, but his quiet and unassuming personality brought a certain peacefulness to the job site.
Abby I have been here since day one, and have thoroughly enjoyed seeing your sweet fixer upper turn into a beautiful home….you’re getting SO close!!! ❤️❤️❤️
The house is so bright and light! I love the deep windowsills, and that extra strip of trim around the outside adds dimension and makes the windows so much grander. That was a good choice. When you get the electrical outlet and covers on, it's going to look nearly finished. Almost time for lighting, floors, kitchen cabinets, and radiators!
You will probably not like this comment, but I will be so sad when you are finished with your cute little house. I've followed you from the beginning, and I'm so impressed with all your hard work and tenacity. It looks great and will be a treasure for you. You're lucky to have Jay. I'm so glad you saved an old house. I love that sort of thing.
I hope you won't paint the beautiful wood. But I am not a designer or anything. I think you're closet space and drawers would look stunning in the same matching stain as your big beautiful window 😊
Just a thought-painted woodwork requires a lot of upkeep, dusting, painting, touch up paint, etc. Stained woodwork can take alit of neglect before it is noticeable.
Wow such a wonderful difference! I really like the deep window sills. Perfect places for potted plants which, I think, is the best kind of room decor. So excited for you!
I love how caulking make everything look finished. Here's a good trick for smoothing it perfectly: Get a large scrap of cardboard and a damp rag. Dampen your finger and draw it along the caulking. When the caulk starts to build up, wipe the excess onto the cardboard and give your finger a quick wipe on the damp rag. Back up a few inches and continue to smooth the caulk, cleaning it off your finger as you go. This will keep the line smooth and tight and it will look VERY nice. :o)
Love how you Abby and Jay work so well together. Jay is so great with his carpentry skills and you always say what do I need to do to help him out. Great team work ❤❤
You two have done a beautiful job on the windows,but wish they were painted white. The stain chops it up too much,but of course you must please yourself and it's going to look great.❤
I was thinking the same thing. Her new doors on the house are a dark wood and everything else is lightwood. It looks off. And the floors are different color of wood. I like bright, clean and airy! She hasn't even brought in furniture yet with more WOOD! 🤔
Are we too early to start taking friendly wagers on when running water is in, and Abby spends her first night 'roughing' it in the gorgeous new place? We're all so excited for you, girl. Hugs from Maine!
You have done a fantastic job on your home. Jay is a great teacher. You will enjoy your beautiful work everyday! You’re become more comfortable and confident all around!
To jay beautiful work you are doing not to mention your patience and kindness shows everyday! Abby you are so very blessed to have such wonderful friends and family you are a determined hard working girl so happy for you it’s gonna be a show stopper!!!
Abby, how amazing the trim made those windows look! you are so lucky to have windows like that with such depth. They don't make them like that anymore! Great job by you and Jay.
I love the windows! I was afraid you wouldn't trim it like this. It goes with the age of the house. U are amazing! Not forgetting Jay at all. He is such a wonderful man an shows so much patience . Teaching you all the tricks of his trade!!!!
At first I was skeptical about a third window up stairs rooms but now I love it. Brings in much more light and does change the appearance from outside of the house. Was a very good chose to add it. The window trim turned out perfect and must say the view looking out is amazing. Funny I'm new to trhe channel and about two video's away from the install of the third window. Been enjoying watching them all from the beginning, but still have long way to catch-up on everything. Great remodeling channel of a 150yr old house, thanks Abby!! 😊
I love the windows with that framing so pretty! You and Jay are amazing! When you look at your house when it is finished you are going to look at what’s been done you can say I did that I helped build this house! It’s going to look beautiful when it’s done ❤

As a tribute to Jay you should inscribe a dedication to him in the house!
The house is looking so beautiful.
Looking fantastic!!
Abby I have been here since day one, and have thoroughly enjoyed seeing your sweet fixer upper turn into a beautiful home….you’re getting SO close!!! ❤️❤️❤️
I love all the natural finishes and the repurposed materials AND the hand milled wood from your dad!
The triple window all framed looks incredible! ❤
Beautiful windows
The window's look WONDERFUL.
I have not committed for a minute, but I just want to say Jay is amazing, he is very talented. Abby you are so lucky to have such a great friend
Gorgeous for sure, Abby!!! 🥰🎶❤️🎶🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
those windows are absolutely beautiful. It would look great if you stained the built- in's frames to match.
good job
So pretty!! ❤❤❤
Stained baseboards will show less dust. How do I know? Experience. ❤
I agree!!!

yes,,it's lovely
Everything about your house looks amazing Abby. It’s hard to believe how time has flown, and how far you have come 😊
YOU ARE GOING TO APPRECIATE THIS HOUSE SO MUCH MORE THAT YOU ARE DOING SO MUCH OF THE WORK YOURSELF.
Gorgeous! You and Jay are just chugging along on this renovation! Won’t be long before you are finished!
I am getting excited seeing the house getting closer to being done.
OMGOSH!!! I'm so happy you went with stain rather than painting the window casings and frames! They are absolutely gorgeous!
I'm always sure to give you a "thumbs up" because you are doing a great job! ~ Mrs. M
Windows are gorgeous!!!❤
omg it looks so good.
I love this window

Abby, maybe you let us follow along as you landscape your property, after the house is completed 🙌
I hope you won't paint the beautiful wood. But I am not a designer or anything. I think you're closet space and drawers would look stunning in the same matching stain as your big beautiful window 😊
I totally concur 😊
Just a thought-painted woodwork requires a lot of upkeep, dusting, painting, touch up paint, etc. Stained woodwork can take alit of neglect before it is noticeable.
Abby I wished you had a video every day 😊😊😊those triple windows in your bedroom are a work of art 👍
Wow just wow, the windows are so beautiful! I would love to have windows with such deep sills like that.
Beautiful job, God bless Jay. Excelente 🎉🎉🎉❤

So glad you think so too!! I was thinking the same thing!

Those upper rooms have been so transformed and I LOVE the color stain. I so glad you have the windows in each end of the house plus put the dormer in.
