Early in our marriage my husband said he'd prefer to work an 18 hour day, and pay a professional instead of us doing DIY together.
A year later he said he would prefer to work many 18 hour days, and pay a professional instead of ME doing DIY on my own...
That’s 😂me 100% then I abandon it, or end up paying somebody to do it
I dated someone who had just bought and started renovating a house. I once found him crying under the sink.
I absolutely refuse to help anyone with DIY ever again.
😂
Very relatable. In my house this would stay half-finished for years. Adulting is hard y'all
We will see how long it takes to actually fix this....
I'm over here looking at the baseboards still missing in our master bedroom after we used a week of vacation to DIY a flooring install in 2019...just adding to the to-do list for a competent professional to deal with before we sell the house...
Lol I call it my work in progress. Or if company comes by, I'm remodeling. Thank God, no one has asked when I'll be done.
2013: a foot of (clean water) flooding of our basement office/bedroom/movie room…we dried out the carpet, removed and dried the baseboards, and cut off the drywall just above waterline so we could remove the wet fiberglass insulation. 2021 we were getting ready to downsize, and I finally did the repair and repaint. 😂
“I regret everything, and I resent everybody.” All the angry feels. Kim, ya nailed it!
The “It just smells like confidence in here” is exactly why I cannot go into a home improvement stores alone 😂 I go in for one item to complete a project and leave with 10 new projects always forgetting the thing that brought me in there to begin with.
Same here
As someone who does handyman work just take fresh earplugs and shove them up yer nose
I actually kind of like Kim’s wall mural. It looks like an abstract sunset 😁
Yes, me too. 😊
Exactly. It actually doesn’t look as bad as they think.
I know right! She just needed a couple more coats of the white to cover up the stripes better and it would have been perfect to me. 😁
Kinda looks like the butt and tail of a horse.
Same
My last stage of every project is Hide the Evidence. The $60 of supplies I bought to update a chair I bought for $5 at a flea market and didn’t ever finish. The rug hooking kit that was way harder than I thought it’d be. The stack of framed photos I haven’t hung up since I moved into the house over a decade ago. Eek.
Love this😅
😂😂 My house currently has no interior doors because I thought it would be a great idea to paint them all 6 months ago.
I did this a year ago.. made a tiny paint booth and sprayed them.. waiting forever for them to dry.. needed 3 coats.. messed some up moving them out of the booth wet.. and stupid me I did them black satin, so now they are getting scratches & scuffs. They should have a gloss finish or something that handles daily wear!
😂😂😂
I once scored some inexpensive, but pretty wallpaper and decided to use it in our first house.
So in the heat of a Southern July summer, we started putting the stuff up. (My husband is 6’4” and got roped in fast.)
It wouldn’t stick.
Between the humid July weather, and whatever had crawled off the back of that wallpaper, we were the only ones sticky.
We would put it on the wall. It would crawl its way back off.
We repeated this a few times. Because we’re stubborn.
Then we finally pulled up some chairs, got a cold drink, and watched it peel off the wall.
We actually cheered as the roving wallpaper hit the lever on the thermostat and turned the air conditioning on.
Wallpaper is the devil. And since exorcists aren’t cheap, we don’t use it anymore.
Oh, thank you -- I'm laughing so hard I'm crying. When I was a child, my father did a major house project every summer. He was one of those people who can literally fix anything. His wallpaper matched perfectly and it stayed up. I've never attempted it. 🤭
The Panic Pivot is so relatable!! Love how the music changed throughout 😝
Thanks for watching!
“I can do this myself!”
*Five minutes later* “Hey babe I need some help!”
“No Babe, it’s a do-it-YOURSELF project.” 🤣
Stage 1: Ignoring the obvious. I feel this one in my soul! In fact, I'm there right now.
Always!
"Everything was on sale." Classic! 🌞
I figured out how to get these home projects done. You see, I have college aged kids. And they want money.....in fact, I also have a teen who wants money. I now have taken to offering to pay them the "money I would have paid someone else." They actually come home from college to paint the trim on the house (I have a tall 2 story), change the filters on the a/c, weather strip the doors, wash the windows on the second floor, mow the lawns, and this is just this fall! This is great! I wish I had thought of this sooner.
"Maybe we'll have a BABY visit us!"
All of this makes total sense to me. You're the most relatable people on RUclips. Thanks for being so normal. If I see one more DIYer paint and redecorate their entire house in one day, I'll scream ...
😅😅😅😅
I feel so seen! I have a partially patched ceiling from water damage. A 90% finished kitchen that needs the floor refinished and baseboards. Finally my closet has wallpaper that I'm still removing after 3 months and rolls of removable wallpaper under my bed waiting to be put up. Good times.
As a really successfully DIYer, who has remodeled whole houses, I found this hilarious, because I'm the friend people call to come fix it when things go wrong. It was funny to see, the process which led to the, this is outside my skill set moment. Love your family. 👏👏👏🤣💙🇺🇸🕊
One of the greatest TV shows ever was Renovation Realities. They just sent a TV crew to a family who wanted to DIY a major project over a three day weekend with $100 budget. It was amazing!
I relate too well. There are several not completed projects in our house. One project is over 10 years old and when I look at it I say “I gotta get to that” 😂.
Love your videos; I am the one who handles all the home improvement and construction projects around our house.
I am a trained, licensed professional engineer so EVERYTHING is planned and calculated and specified and documented. It takes me weeks to work out the details and when my wife is away for a few days BOOM, it's all done. LoL.
Well, at least 95%.
I feel so seen! My favorite unfinished project isn't quite home improvement, but I have a needlepoint project I started in 1975 that was supposed to be turned into a throw pillow for my first apartment. I'm still working on it to this day....🤣
😅😅😅😅
"Smells like confidence in here." LOLOLOL
There is a chance my bathroom might just fall right off my house. I decided last week that the hallway absolutely needs to be painted. I felt this.
😂😂😂
I can totally relate, my house is full of 80% finished projects that didn’t need to be done but, “it will look so great” and the need to be done ones haven’t been touched.
My husbands favorite saying was "Hire someone to do it. They need a job too"
Bought a house last year. Painted a couple of walls gray. Had every intention of going back and touching up the windows. Put up curtains instead. Forgot about the windows. You can still see a bit of the previous paint color when you pull back the curtains. Good enough. XD
All of them have been started, nothing is completed to perfection (or completed) I live around it. And I've called a handy man this year. He thinks he is coming in to do lighting but I have a laundry list of items for him. 😂
Our master bathroom had a tiny shower stall but the room is oddly shaped to accommodate the basement stairs, which made a 4x4 area that I figured would easily convert to an amazing huge shower. I bought the fiberglass base, tore out the drywall, and had cement board installed so that the walls could be tiled instead of covered in plastic. The project paused there because the toilet had to be replaced - which led to the fiberglass shower base getting gouged. The pause lasted nine years, during which our master bath became a storage area with bare cement walls and a floor you couldn't step on. Every morning for nine years, our day started with that sight until we finally paid a ton of money to tear out all of the stuff I had done and get professionals to install a new shower.
You have a very patient wife. I would have killed you immediately. Please take her out for Valentine's Day.
I feel bad for you guys, but really. The way you wrote it was really hysterical...thx for Making me feel good about myself.😅
Please show us how it really ends up! Loved this - all so true! 😂
I can totally relate. I decided to paint my office before Christmas myself. After several trips to Home Depot and a few paint mishaps I did manage to get it painted. Next time, I’m calling the painter. 😂
I love the colours you chose for the mural. Just make blobs of those colours all over the wall. Make sure they overlap and I promise it'll look great.
I've been through all of that! I'm currently sitting in my living room under water stains from our leaky primary ensuite. We paid a contractor (I'm learning) to completely gut and complete our ensuite (that no one else sees) and totally ignored the ceiling...
Water damage is the worst
That was some commitment for one video! 😲
I just went all-in on this one 🤣
You had me at "I'll download an audiobook." 😂
I laughed really hard because this video was what my husband does when he tackles a project. I'm the one who fixes the water damage, sands out and refinishes wooden surfaces, primes, paints, does electrical work, built the deck and so on. I know you don't want advice but here it is: If any of the paint on the wall is a bit raised you may want to sand it, remove all the dirt and dust, before going over it with a good quality primer - two coats. Plan on a few hours a day until it's done. Perfection takes time.
Last year my husband and I were redoing our entire house. We were living at our rental property and coming down to our house that we live in now and redoing it. We redid the entire upstairs. Pulled out all the cabinets put new ones and we did all the flooring to the original hardwood a beautiful shiplap wall. Read it the bathroom because we had a pink pink pink bathtub and a pink toilet lol then we took all of that wood trim and sanded it down and stand in black. This was one of my favorite times in my life for a side-by-side with my husband. Luckily he’s a Carpenter, so it looks amazing. But I love doing home-improvement projects.
Started wallpapering my little itty bitty bathroom over 2 years ago with peel and stick wallpaper.....still have one wall to get done, and it's not even a full wall because I'd planned on doing a chair rail around the room! Also, started wallpapering my hallway, not peel and stick and NOT prepasted....only got 2/3 of the way down one side. This is a short hallway with 5 doors to go around and the wallpaper is a basic tone on tone stripe, so no matching needed!! That was 3 years ago and now I'm not sure I even like it!! *sigh* You are most definitely not alone Kim!! I get so many ideas in my head, get what I think are all the supplies needed to execute the original plans then start something completely different, never finish any of them then get overwhelmed by all of it! ADHD, anxiety and OCD, not a fun combination to live with!
My condolences go with you except on the same way.
I like how you went directly for the rollers, and didn't bother to do any cut-in. Classic move.
I've never felt more personally represented in any of your videos. >.
Glad I'm not the only one who does this 😆
I don’t know about you, Kim, but after going through the home improvement store to get what I need, I’m already ready to scrap my DIY project.
Hi cindland where are you from?
😂😂😂
As someone that worked in a paint store for 4 1/2 years, that was really just a documentary of most DIY projects. Bravo. My left eye is still twitching.
I have been waiting on trim around the kitchen window for like 20 years. After about 16 years we FINALLY installed a threshold between the kitchen and bathroom. We totally have unfinished stuff everywhere.
My heart goes out to you. But obviously, there are many of us in the same situation.
Rule #1 in DYI art projects: Do a quick sketch of what you are trying to complete. It helps you plan supplies and prevents you from getting side tracked.
Rule #2 in DYI art projects: (If you have never done art before) Research techniques and practice before starting big projects, or start small.
I would recommend priming the wall (again) and choosing a base coat of paint. Then you can take a feather duster with 2 or 3 coordinating colors and brush them on the wall. It will give a nice texture and won't be as time consuming or as difficult as a mural.
Omg I've wanted that picture of the bill on the wall but my hubby told me no because it doesn't go with anything lol. And now I want to be like Kim so I'm getting it!
We've redone our entire house, ceiling to floors in every room. You can tell the rooms we did first and the rooms I was like, screw this I hate diy everything lol. There's a big bump on our master bedroom wall I left because I thought our bed frame would cover it and it looks like a giant booger 😂😂😂
😅😅😅
For the longest time we didn't have baseboard trim! It was removed while the floors were redone and walls were painted.
My living room still has test paint in the corner from when I thought I would repaint the room and didn't know what color to choose. In the meantime I did repaint the dining room and helped my husband refresh one of the bathrooms. I can't be positive but I think the paint has been there about 10 years. I still don't know what color I want but it's neither of the test patch colors. Yeah, we never have anyone but family over so......
I love that the algorithm sent me this video right when I came back from the store with tons of new projects. RUclips is trying to tell me something.
After reading the comments it’s comforting to know that we’re not the only ones living in a “work in progress “ for many years now. 😬
“It just smells like confidence in here.” Yeah, I think they pump that smell in so we pay for the mistakes we make on the way 😂
Had you primed, rather than painted, then actually tried on the art, I think it's actually pretty neat.
We've had a hole (cut to access a shower in a bathroom on the floor above) for over 5 years. It's currently covered by a garbage back HA--so that part of the video REALLY resonated with me. And that mural isn't really half bad...
😅😅😅
I'm an actual house painter, so thanks for your effort, and I will gladly fix it for hundreds more than you would have paid if I was just hired to begin with.
I also do rental maintenance. There were several instances of the renters trying to repair damage on there own, and just costing themselves more of their deposit. Sometimes costing more than their deposit amount to fix.
If you have no idea how to do something, really don't try.
100% true. Love this... Though you've given me a little confidence that MAYBE I can put up a tiny bit off wallpaper going down the basement stairs. A full sheet looks too hard but a tiny bit maybe I can do it! Lol... And maybe it will be terrible.
This is so timely. Been working on my kitchen pantry. I bought an over the door shelf unit. Husband immediately hated it and said, just get a professional to do the whole thing. That was a total Kim Holderness Master class move. Have already scheduled the first estimate!
So glad you uploaded this video. Inspired me to start a project making a rug out of old cut up jeans and ignore some of the other things that require my attention ;-)
Hi Andrea how are you doing today
I lost it when she grabbed the same peel and stick wallpaper that we used in our laundry room!🤣
To answer the question at @4:59 -- Kim, a good primer will totally cover that. I've learned (the hard way) that skipping primer is almost always a fool's errand. Just do a primer coat, and then the first coat of paint will look awesome, and a 2nd coat and you'll be loving it.
This was so funny to watch! Although I am a DIY gal and complete my projects! hahaha, I've remodeled my kitchen, dining room, living room, spare bedrooms, and 1 bathroom. I've even pulled out 2 windows that I didn't want. I'm very happy with the remodels I've done. I still have the master bedroom and bath to do but am willing to admit the master bath will have some hired help since I have no confidence in putting in a new shower! LOL I know my limits! hahaha
Hi my friend how are you doing today
I and my son (now both electrician engineers) both gravitate to the ideation phase. We’ll spend a LOT of time figuring out what we want to do, buy supplies, and then it’ll stall soon after starting the work. (His living room has been de-popcorned for months now, and in one day the two of us can put knockdown texturing on it…but it drags on.
Meanwhile my wife (teacher) and daughter (nurse) are driven to finish projects. I had a great time working with my daughter on finishing her basement into a bedroom suite while she had 1 month before shipping out to join her husband who was deployed overseas-we’d synch up in the AM with planning for the day, and then I’d go to work. I’d bring fast food dinner, and we’d debrief. At the beginning of the month, she conformed to plan. By the end of the month, the debrief would be: “this is how I modified the plan, and why it’s better.” What a great experience! And now that they’re back from his overseas experience, they continue with home improvement…and now I borrow tools from my kids, instead of the other way around!
My favourite part of these sketches is the barely contained stress sweats Penn gets at the slightest chance of them having another baby haha.
Panic Pivot is both a whole mood and a great name for a band.
Love how Penn is so accepting of the mural at the end - very true that you won’t see it while you’re asleep in bed 😂
I really loved where your mural was going! I love those colors ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I have half painted kitchen cabinets and a mostly paint prepped deck that won't get done until sometime in spring or summer. LOVED yhis video❤❤❤
I'm going through this right now. We have water damage in a basement room and all I'm doing is choosing paint colors for every other room in the house.
Wow. The lightly primed stripes and boho waves are hilarious. Thank you for the laughs.
I have a wall in the kitchen that needs one more coat of paint. It has needed this for somewhere between 18 months and a year. One wall of the stairs and the stairs and landing ceiling both need painting. Probably three coats will be needed. Three coats have been done on other wall of the stairs, the landing and the hall already, so one wall is a total different colour to the rest of the walls. That's been about two years that it's been like that. They both started as projects during lockdowns, then lockdowns stopped, life got busy and my motivation to finish them, rather than doing other things went. It's now coming into the warmer months, so my attention will be on the garden when I have time. Maybe this autumn/winter I'll finish one or both of them. I also need to paint the gate in the garden to match the fence and paint the part of the fence that runs alongside an external path. There are a lot of other new products going on too, so we'll see how many get completed and how many existing ones get finished this year.
We move a lot and I seem to feel the most ambitious in the first month after we move in. We're renting and I decided to "fix" the stairs that a previous someone painted a horrible brown... It was peeling anyway, so I helped it along and now 2 stairs are peeled down to the wood. I also bought all the supplies to remove the paint, sand them down and stain them. We've been here 6 months, I haven't done anything further, the stairs look worse than they did before, the supplies are sitting untouched, and oh yeah I have ZERO experience. But I watched a bunch of RUclips videos, so I'm sure I can do it... I can do it by myself... Oh boy...
😅😅😅
Nearly peed myself laughing. “Panic pivot “ was hilarious
Glad we made you laugh!
I'm getting very "if we ruin the wall for our job, hiring a painter will be a tax write off" vibes from this video.
Plus the write off on the materials to start with!
Smart
Ha! That's motivation to start a DIY RUclips channel!
Right?! Gives you a little more wiggle room to do something weird 😂
I’ve actually thought of teaching some high schoolers how to get paid doing repairs. I’d want to teach them tiling, drywall, painting, carpet stretching/kicking, bondo (holes in doors), plumbing repair, electrical repair/minor improvement, HVAC repair. I’ve had bad contractor experiences with nearly all of those (too expensive AND low-quality work). I have 4 rental houses, so have learned a lot on them and my own homes (3 in the past 25 years), and would love to have a few dependable, capable young adults to rely on (my 56-yr old knees no longer tolerate much of this) for repairs.
My dad started making a cedar closet in their bedroom in 1989 when they first bought the house. Their first child was born a few months later, and he never touched the project again. 34 years have passed, and I'm going to ask my husband to help my dad complete the project the next time we visit.
I love how you DIY’d that wall for the channel a few years ago and it’s been like that for the whole time 😂 also your abstract not worried about it painting is way better than me trying hard 😂
This was really funny, and sad, for the room. Call in the professionals on EVERYTHING. Your home deserves that. DIY is a quick trip to crazy town. If you want a lovely, well thought out home, hire a decorator/interior designer. Saves $ in the long run. Thanks for the humor 😂.
I love this family!
Thanks for being here with us!
So do I!
Well, one night I tried to tackle changing a faucet. I live in a condo on the 3rd floor. The hot water was hard to turn off but I really thought I had it off. I just can't believe how fast there was about 2 inches of water filled my floor. What was even faster was how fast my downstairs neighbor came up banging on my door. I went down to his condo unit and I thought Niagra Falls was coming through his ceiling. Needless to say he took a rather dim view of it. Thank the good Lord for insurance! 🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊
When I moved in with my husband it was in his parents former house. They had good intentions with renovating but… 8 years later and we still don’t have door trim, our bedroom paint is what his sister choose in middle school, and most of the doors are damaged in some way. At this point it doesn’t even matter because the foundation needs to be replaced and we would rather build a new home.
Peel and stick wallpaper sounds like a nightmare to put up 😳 with regular wallpaper you can adjust it slightly (and hopefully fix mistakes) before the glue has dried. And yes, who wants to so boring stuff that HAS to be done when you can redecorate 😉
We are in the midst of redecorating our home of 46 years for the 4th time. I HATE IT and I'm absolutely horrible at it. We just installed a new light in the bathroom. It's beautiful. So bright the CIA could use it for interrogation training!! It was also apparently supposed to be for a kitchen but we didn't know that bc it was on a wall at the store. My husband quietly mentioned this fact AFTER he installed it. I laughed until I cried
I feel this too hard! Srsly im binging holderness this morning and loving it! We bought our first house 3 yrs ago. It was built in 1955 so it needs some love. I have so many projects it takes a calendar to lay out cuz holy crap. Its really bc its big stuff we need a professional for so lots of saving😂😂😂
As an artist, I totally do murals on walls all the time. I am really good at them too. I have never left a mural half done. Oh, I also fix plumbing issues and yes, I am a female. I have been known to fix my own car. I build furniture for my house, and I am planning to reupholster my couch and build a couple of chairs to match it. Other than electricity I can handle any project around the house that a man can. I gutted a kitchen 8 mos. pregnant, and my kid's dad came home to me about to hang drywall. He cooked and did laundry because he just wasn't that handy.
I haven't had any project fails since I was in mid 20s and thought sponge painting was necessary. But I had a handy parent to teach me drywall, plumbing, tile, paint, etc. Electrical is my hard line except ceiling fans.
But the hole in the ceiling very relatable - a top floor sink overflowed at our house, which has escalated to refinishing the floors in the entire house (closets too). Since we have to practically move out to do that, a good time to paint... the whole house. And get all the rugs professionally cleaned. And the piano tuned after it moves out and back in. It's endless...
God. I’ve been way too hard on myself about all the unfinished projects. Thank you
Can you do more 80s vs now parenting? Those are my favorite videos on your channel
After years of considering it, I finally decided to handwash a dingy large throw pillow in the bathtub. It got too heavy to rinse well enough. As it dried, all the years' worth of grime was drawn out to the cover which turned a color that made me gag just looking at it. My kid's response was to promise as soon as he gets a phone, he's posting a pic of it online 🤦♀️ My newest pivot is to sew a new cover out of some scrap fabric. Wish me luck!
Yep. I have finally learned that my skills are not up to any home improvement project other than organizing. My husband does all the hard work, and I feel lucky if he lets me help make color decisions.
What happened at my house:
2003 my husband argues that we don’t need to buy the expensive bullnose shelving because he can add the bullnose himself. Saved $50. Our daughter is 5
2017 my husband finally gets around to adding the bullnose edge. Our daughter is in college!
2023 My husband still has not painted the bullnose edge to match the shelves. Our daughter is a 25 yr old professional living with her boyfriend.
It was actually looking pretty good. Just finish the bright blue on the bottom and proceed with more beach waves or sunset colors going up the wall. (If it was just supposed to be half the wall, finish your primer on top, paint it the color it needs to be, then finish the blue on bottom and go over the top "wave" a little bit again to account for your primer and paint on top bleed-ins...hope that makes sense. I've done an entire house to resell before and it has its stages. Every project though starts out like your video: "I'll go get everything and knock it out in a day...okay weekend...or two!" Lol
Editing to add that I, too, am always calling my husband to help move something, refill the paint, or hand me the tape. 🤭
We were trying to save money by installing laminate flooring ourselves and we had a deadline because the carpet layers were scheduled the next day. My husband had to pull an all nighter and put the laminate down. When he finished it was way past midnight and he was beyond exhausted. He got in our Previa van and made it 6 houses before he fell asleep and ran off the road and hit the neighbors mailbox. The passenger wheel hit the lower part of their driveway and it caused the frame to bend and the van was TOTALED. Project to save money = buying new van (so not saving money) 😂
So proud I called a plumber and finally got a project done! Yay!
I know I have told you both this 784 times already but……..I love your channel❤️
Lol “fixating” 😂😂
This hit very close to home.
Only, I’m the one that has to fix the thing afterwards.
Hahahahaha!! I am the painter. I absolutely walk into these beauties. I appreciate each and every one! 🤣🤣🤣
My brother and I grew up in a PERPETUAL home project house. I sent this to him lol.
Stage 5 reminds me of the I Love Lucy episode where she and Ethel decide to put up wallpaper by themselves 😂
Hilarious episode!
😅😅😅
It's like if it's all laid out in my brain, it's already done.😅
OMG I finally realized this is what's going on in my head.
Actually, I like how it turned out. Super fun!
I literally have a wall - the whole width of our home - where I tore off the wallpaper in an impulse - and now it is patches of wallpaper glue, green paint from the previous owners, and wallboard where the paint came off with the wallpaper. It has been that way for weeks. I'm beginning to hope it is stylish somewhere.... (Also, I have a primed fireplace that I'm painting, but haven't yet put the paint on .... And yes, I did start another project in the meantime).
you're safe here!
@@holdernessfamilylaughs 😅 That means the world! I feel lovingly seen 😂
I feel so much better knowing I'm not alone in this "lifestyle".
Oh gosh this was hilarious and 100% relatable!!....this is basically the process I go through annually with my New Year's resolutions and projects 😂
When I do DIY projects I always get an idea, complete it nearly perfectly, then notice every little detail that is slightly off, and finally I treat whatever I did like glass because I'm afraid of breaking it. Lol
