Abandoned House in Ukraine | We Made Absolutely New Gates

[@laurencejohnson4106]

The gates look fine and as you already mentioned the colour will fade through time, white is a good choice for window frames both inside and outside as it reflects and increases the amount of light in the house.

[@oliverpugh4162]

The red and black looks good to me it's stands out from the rest of the village so you and Luba will be unique 👌

[@SaltySilverStacker]

Dark dark Forest green trim on a brick house looks awesome. Goldish color doors as well.

[@tiki_trash]

It's always nice to have place with relatively unusual colors. When you give directions you can say, "Ok, so just stay on that road till you see the red gate."

[@lancebarker8980]

Love it 🇦🇺 good job

[@rm2828]

Stunning red/brown gate and black trim. Looks fresh and inviting!! Do the same with the doors & windows. Avoid any brown color as it will look Very tired and Old especially against the brick. ❤️from Montreal

[@lorichristineflorida3020]

💯

[@cdredge3971]

I really love the blue trim with the natural brick and the natural wood color of the door. Even if not perfect, if you sand the door and stain it naturally it will be beautiful.

[@pabis6817]

I really wish they would listen to this. It kills the charm and craftsmanship to paint wood brown! You can stain wood but never paint it.

[@SeekerofEndurance]

As mentioned in the comments already white window trim and forest green door. The gate looks amazing. How did you stay so clean. Luba in pretty clothes and white shoes🤣. Stay safe sweet couple.

[@falemonjennings1241]

Well done 👏 very nice, the gate colors are very beautiful 😍 Aloha from Maui ❤

[@haveyoueverthoughtof]

White would be the best trim color for the house. Thanks for your channel!

[@fraudebs8786]

100%

[@victoriadurrant4366]

I think black trim would look great as it would go well with the the red fence and the red of the bricks on the house. 😊😊😊

[@Donaldperson7]

I like the color of the gate! Actually those colors would look good on the house and barn also!

[@faazev43924october]

Great job!! I admire you two a lot! Love from Brazil!! 🇧🇷 Glory to Ukraine!!🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦

[@Jeetendrasingh-k8g]

🎉🎉🎉🎉😢❤❤❤

[@tictackpainting9983]

Personally I love the colors together, especially outside. Great Job!! You both should be very proud.

[@KristenLB]

you guys are so patient, even when things sometimes go wrong or present other challenges you just laugh and find another way, love that

[@zeneataanderson8233]

The red brown is called Terracota. The door would be lovely the gates coulor.I thonk the windows white be a nice contrast..Well done looks great.....🎉

[@outdoorsbeyondnature1980]

6:30 The Brick Red paint with the Black trim looks good, I would paint the Front door 🚪 Black and the window 🪟 trim Brick Red. Ukraine 🇺🇦 is a beautiful country. I'm from the Great Valley of California United States 🇺🇸

[@yali3662]

Please stay safe...our hearts are with you. Stay safe please

[@dianethompson2458]

Thanks

[@Kim-J312]

Love the brick red color for gate . Paint the door and window 🪟 frames of house same color , will complement each other so beautifully

[@kevinmendonsa346]

Thanks!

[@pavlofromukraine]

Thanks a lot!

[@roypowell3450]

The gates look very good and nice and bright. You both had a very busy day, well done. Take and love from the UK.

[@mistycreekboats]

If you want to eat good colour choice is simple. Whatever Luba picks is the best choice. Lol. I've been married 45 years. Works for me. I am also a Canadian Ukrainian - and proud of my ancestry. Cool videos. Cheers

[@darrylparker-nc1ko]

Привет Pavlo and Luba. White or cream colour would look nice on your windows and doors.

[@marcforsyth9610]

You two have done a wonderful job! Be safe and God bless!!

[@michaelleinen8024]

Pavlo, you seem to be a smart person. Let Luba choose the colors. Trust me.

[@nevada150]

The top “tubes” are called wrought iron. You both did a great job. Keith.

[@sergeytsvetanov]

🤨 Garnet gate door, metal frame, and garnets, in contrast to outdoor wrought iron furniture.

[@vicbranson1061]

If I recall from previous videos, this property is Luba family house. So cool to see the restoration ! You have done so much work. Excellent color choice on the gate. Love your series. Feel like you guys are family (and I live a world away in Arizona, USA, but also lived in Canada with a bunch of Ukrainians 😅)

[@northsaskguy7878]

I agree with you that it would be great if the house doors were natural wood. If it was mine I would do everything I could to try to get the rest of the old paint off and just apply a clear protective coat on the doors. Do you have a shop close by that paints cars? Or maybe a metal fabrication shop that paints their products after building them? They would probably have a sandblaster there, it should take that old paint off easily if you brought the doors to them. I'm sure it would not be very expensive for them to do it. If not, I would paint the trims and window frames with the red/brown paint you used on the gates, then paint the doors a lighter color of brown, like a tan color. I think it would look good, but everyone has different tastes. Just as long as the Boss ( Luba) is happy! Lol

[@wayneday3916]

For the front door I like Crimson Red or Jade Green or Forest Green or Sunshine Yellow.

[@r.k.2823]

Hello. You both did a good job. Unfortunately, paint does not darken unless you change its pigments. Paint can fade from the sun and weathering, but it won't darken. What you could do, if you have any black paint leftover is to put some of it in the red to tone it down. Or just buy a small can of brown and add it to the red and hopefully you will get the dolor you are looking for. Honestly, I would paint your doors and trim white. The mortar inbetween the bricks is light, and I think white is bright and clean, plus it will bring the color of the bricks out against the white.

[@pennylane428]

A red front door in feng shui is considered very lucky and auspicious. A red door is a symbol of protection, new opportunities and good luck🍀

[@SwiftFalcon]

Hi Pavlo, We've really enjoyed the opportunity given through your videos to experience the beauty and culture of your country. Sharing your family during special events like birthdays and during the holiday's have been an added treat. Nice to see families sharing good food, and good times together.... Good people too.!! It's a good feeling to see the smiles, and hear the laughter that you, Luba, and your families share.......!! (Luba wins the best smile contest......!!) It's been a while now I know, but sorry that ya'll mourn the loss of Jack. We've always had dogs, and have experienced those tough times too. You and Luba work really well together and make a great team.!! Without a doubt, very intelligent "soul mates" that will share a wonderful future. (Do ya'll always get along so well when working together, my wife and I do not, especially if it has anything to do with paint........ Keep up the good work!) Pavlo, the content along with the narratives in your videos, express a lot of pride and feelings from the heart. Thanks so much for sharing.! May God bless and keep your families safe.

[@cocopufer5667]

light grey would make the brick pop and allow you to use accent colors elsewhere like plants

[@Mudwiggler]

WOW nice work, well done team.

[@raggedblossom508]

That was a well-spent afternoon. The gate looks great in those colours!

[@lynnek4226]

I think the gates look great! Love the color! Painting is a lot of hard work, but the result is very satisfying. I have been painting my entire house on the inside, and just finished my bedroom. It is a light gray with a dark yellow accent wall. The rest of the house so far is all light gray. My back hurts, but my house looks so much better! You two are really making the house into a nice home. Can’t wait to see what you do next!

[@DIYAllied]

I'm a professional painter in the US for the last 20 years. Before I saw the colors you bought I thought black or an earth tone red for the doors and trim. I think you were right on with your first choices. Love you two. Be safe.

[@TheBandit7613]

That's not an earth tone red. You are talking about an Iowa faded red barn red. That's a too intense red. My neighbors would be pissed. People in that area have bad taste in colors anyway. The colors of the original doors and windows, vomit green. I'm just being honest and you know it.

[@DIYAllied]

@@TheBandit7613 people have bad taste in color where? Black would be a great color for the trim. That red is not earth tone but they had the right idea. I would have gone for more of a brick red to go with the brick. They couldn't take that back back because it was already mixed so the gate idea was great.

[@TheBandit7613]

@@DIYAllied Eastern Europe has bad taste in colors. Funky blues and greens don't belong on a house. The gate should have been tan, light brown, something earthy. Not 70's Chevelle fire engine red! If you painted someone's gate that color, they'd have a heart attack!

[@DIYAllied]

@@TheBandit7613 to each their own. Different cultures appreciate colors in different ways. No one is right or wrong, its a simple matter of preference.

[@tenapentu9299]

You two work great together! Very nice job, looks incredibly wonderful.

[@john-gr8in]

Hello Luba and Palvo. My opinion would be, first sand then undercoat the widow frames white. Then give the window frames a second coat of white paint. For the front door, I would paint it a forest green to blend in with tree's. I hope this helps.

[@SlavicCoffee]

Yes, white is a good color. However you could also do most of it white and a little brown in some parts of the door as well.

[@karajarvis2254]

Great colours. I think the red would be a good colour for the windows as well

[@shooster5884]

The gates are lovely.. the windows and door the same would look nice together with a gate. A nice bright new statement for the house.

[@karensanders2120]

The red fence is beautiful!

[@gustafchurn8282]

I like maroon color. You should ask for maroon 🎨 I love the way Luba smiles with her disappointment of the color. She is pretty 🤩 and chilled too. She would make a good wife and mother Pavlo!

[@scottmorin357]

A fresh coat of paint always makes things look good. As far as colors you choose that is it whatever you choose you need to live with so choose well my friend. Good job

[@bvbjb]

Please consider leaving the doors to the house in their patina and just use a clear gloss polyurethane. The doors are beautiful. You can always paint it in the future if you don't like the clear coat. As always, thank you for sharing. We like all of your content. :)!!!!

[@roberthall4182]

Sage green is very popular in UK rural communities as it goes well with the brickwork.

[@uptone12111]

I vote for white trim white door and then maybe some brick red shutters later. And then if the gate doesn't darken paint it darker red like a brick red

[@KarenInTx]

For the door and house trim a nice cream color. Not white but off white or cream would lighten it up and match the brick. You guys are amazing working so hard. The gates look great.

[@marleen6507]

Luba, you speak English very well, how come we don’t hear you speak it anymore. Love your accent in English ❤️🇨🇦❤️

[@robinthing]

The combination of Red and Black looks great. I was hoping to see you guys visiting the nearby river this summer too.

[@chantaln6843]

Lupa is correct. 😊 The red gate and black trim looks absolutely beautiful. I think you should continue with the windows & door as red. A red door is good luck and brings prosperity. Pavlov you’re uncertainty is creating confusion.

[@deanehill9730]

Your gates look beautiful, good colour combination. Paint the house windows and other timbers the same. Thanks for the video and stay safe.

[@utboos]

Good job on the gates - wow is very bright - no problem finding your house! The door was hard - its such a pain to get it to close and latch smoothly - good work. Patience is the key to success - and always agreeing with your mate! 😊

[@Bugf1]

Love your videos,, I know Luba would rather brown but red door Keeps Evil spirits and snakes away Great Job .

[@conniepr]

I keep thinking red door but it's up to them.

[@joanmucha1067]

Love the gate and how the color turned out❤

[@DagmarKlicna-vv6fn]

palko, you should keep the frames blue. the combination of red bricks and blue frames is just sooo amazing and typical. I love your videos!

[@neutonrenda2303]

The colour on the gates goes really well with the brick of the house.👍

[@MaribelLopez-jt4xw]

Gorgeous

[@bookooc5605]

Your gates are the colors of my local university, the Georgia Bulldogs...National Champions in football for the last 2 years. Good choice!!! Love the work you are doing on this home.

[@rareblackbird2.0]

Good evening from Sweden. Good work, I really like the gates. It looks like new! I like the light blue colour, like it is, around the windows. Light yellow would be lovely for the doors.

[@radmilaavlijas2222]

I really like out of all places at Luba’s Babushka it’s nice and cozy and Babushka is strong and very smart woman.stay safe you both🙏

[@annalou777]

I like the blue. It is unique to us here in the US. I realize it is common to you there in the village. The gates look great! I like that you and Luba aren’t afraid to take on any job! Oh to be young again! 😊

[@bookooc5605]

For the house, I love the natural patina of the sanded blue and natural wood. I would put a clear coat over it to protect the wood and call it good!

[@PsyTechnical]

The Gate is looking GREAT! PERFECT, Red and Black!

[@bron-sconcess.10]

Navy blue = A gentleman! Lemon yellow = Sunny Day! Black = A tidy cottage (white interior)! The gate turned out good. Not sure about the colour but they're protected, still strong and look like you said 'like new' I think any blue, because that's bright, but practical. 🌿

[@mikezorin2840]

Those colours are awesome!!!

[@kerli666]

Very nice. For the windows maybe white and door white with black on the remnants of blue. Decorative trim would look perfect in white but black would work also. That would make house bright and fresh looking but still matching with brick house and red gate.

[@JerryAndJulieMusic]

We love this series, Pavlo. Nice choice of colors too😊 That music is refreshingly different - it rocks!!

[@0745VaclavDubskyMVDr]

Ok 100%% super ❤❤❤❤❤

The Property-Gate looks fire withe the new paint 👌🔥

[@TheJacksnipe]

I love the colour of Dutch football national team's jersey: orange! And Orange has a meaning in Ukraine, too, as you both certainly know 🙂 I would paint the door orange and the blue parts white or vice versa.

[@scottswagman1472]

Cleveland Browns 🎉 Orange!

[@edlayton4202]

Great Job on the gate. I like the red color very much. It shows there is life there in that property. I agree white trim on the windows and doors would of set the brick color. On the insets of the door itself you can choose another color to balance the white/brick color of the house. Enjoyed this video. Best wishes and warmest Regards. Ed

[@dawnmykulak1892]

Paul and Love, I suggest doing a clear urethane coating on the door and leave them natural. 10 coats of clear and it will last forever. Also pull the weeds from the front steps and find directions on how to tuck point the steps before they collapse. It will save a lot of regrets later. Mike and Dawn

[@tatusiowyteatr]

Ha!!!! Super!!! God Bless from Poland!

[@podgioli]

Maybe a nice red-tan for the windows, which will tone with the gates and look a little like natural wood. You have sunshine! I am on holiday in Switzerland and your video was good to interrupt the sound of rain battering on the roof. I hope Jack has not eaten any more live food when you get back.

[@davestuart6593]

I like the color! Nothing like the tired feeling after you’ve accomplished your goal.

[@reneskaaning5751]

Looks great, you should use the same colors for the door of the house 🏠 use the red for the main part of the door and back in inner slim squares of the door.

[@redlee1973]

The gates look great guys! Of course, I've always liked black and red together (my favorite colors together) (Rob from 🇨🇦)

[@conniepr]

I love the red. It turned out good. I think the door would look good the same way.

[@Nickwillfixit]

Grand job on the gates colour is great. I would do the door and window frames black or white with the doors a light blue. Get the boss to get her artisic juices flowing and come up with a nice design to add to the outside of the gates.

[@lanceneuman9528]

To a western eye, your colors look perfect, it seems the front door would also look great with the same combination, cheerful and matching

[@kerrmudgeon8302]

Looks dobra kids, well done. Cheers from Canada's capital.

[@HaleyMary]

That red color on the gate (from the outside) looks beautiful! The color really pops out! The brown on the inside of the gate looks nice, too. Peace and love from Saskatchewan, Canada!

[@SuperEwokk]

I must agree with you, the front doors and window frames would stand out as nice clean contrast if painted brilliant white. (Always looks good).

Херой!!! Холера ясна тут (Михайло) від миніяполис, минисота. Червоний і чорні пліт душе харне ! Кольори так самі як вишится на полотно. Моще намалювайте якісь узір моще зробіть так як різбленя . Сорок пʼять років від коли я писав по українськи дайте мені кулях. Прошу подзвоніть до нас ми би любили хоронити із вами. We are on the same longitude with you so your weather is the same as ours here in Minneapolis just a week or so later. We love you both and worry about how you’re both doing because so many people criticize you. Just ignore them and by the way, like the cool background music in your last video , we call it range music. For now most sincerely, Mike & Dawn

[@gmcobrasnake]

Great job on the gate...and I would keep going that way...door brown/red and the squares on the door black. The same for the windows frames...like Luba did on the garaged little window. ;) Also you should fill in the 4 hole on the door around the new lock you installed. I found that car auto body filler works great...easy to use and dries fast...but also you can trim it before it completely dries...making less to sand after. then just paint over it. I hope this gives you some ideas!! I find that light colors get dirty to fast and are hard to keep clean and looking good. Take care and be safe!!! Slava Ukraini from Canada!!!

[@beckyumphrey2626]

The gate looks amazing. Great video.

[@MoryBeebee]

Hey, I think the original light blue color was very charming and it suits the place, seeing as it is a countryside house. It’s part of the magic of the place!

[@RobinW]

Hi Pavlo & Luba, I think you both did an outstanding job on both the fence and the cottage? Long time follower. I live in Mountain View, CA (Silicon Valley) U.S.A. One thing that is certain,no one can say they couldn't find your house, cottage.That gate is hard to miss. I really enjoy all of your video's. My favorite is when you took your sheppard (Jack) in the fixer upper car. 🐕‍🦺🚙. Thanks for sharing.

[@monolabmusicstudio2373]

Hello from Ecuador. I suggest trying a few different colors( small cans), then test paint part of one window trim and see exactly how it looks. If you don't like it try a different color on a different part. Whatever you decide on, it will go over the test spots. Two tone is really cool too for trim.

[@kerrywilliams3753]

I love the look on Luba's face when she first locked the door! My wife chose Red-Brown (she calls it burgundy) with very dark brown trim for the doors on our very light green wooden house. The gate looks great, almost Chinese in its red color. And black is natural for iron work. I'm not sure about a brick house - here in Oregon they are rare. New is always better, even paint. I like the idea of light bright doors with dark trim.
