let's paint the studio! | STUDIO MADE EP 1

[@gingerpunk916]

Posting for the other creative weirdos out there: My Bf who is a contract painter happened to be sitting next to me while i watched this (playing elden ring). I asked his opinion about how much expensive primer matters, and he confirmed Dani's statement (to an extent). Since drywall really sucks up the paint, Dani is 100% correct that when priming drywall there is absolutely no point in buying expensive primer. However, when priming other materials (like metal, brick, stucco, etc) it is important to get specific primer (which could be expensive), because if you dont get the right primer for that stuff the paint wont stick right and other issues might happen. Anyway, just confirming that Dani was correct! Save yourself some money when priming drywall:) 🖌

Your tee says it all: "Wonder Woman" - you're not just DIY Danie....you are a Wonder Woman. Can't imagine painting that entire space by myself. Good job!

[@prissypacheco2860]

When you have the time and stay home, you can do anything around the property! 😂😂❤❤

[@sandieedward993]

Absolutely one beautiful space love it's many different levels on the ceilings...would love an apt built like that it's 👌 fabulous 🎉

[@samhalterman4893]

While I was watching this my 3 year old son came up and watched you put the window trim on and he said "she's a strong girl!" And it was the cutest thing. Can't wait to see what you do with this space!

[@judygrenier873]

As my grandpa used to say "Putty and Paint will make it what it ain't!" It looks amazing!

[@britzel71]

Awhhh, I'll have to remember that. So cute

[@marshawargo7238]

Danni maybe could try her hand at embroidery & turn your grandpa's saying into a sampler😂! My dad used to have gems like that, but I never heard that particular one❤! It's So Cool🎉!!! I'm thinking that your grandpa & my dad were probably close to the same age🤔!

[@meghanbrede]

Tragically, hitting the roller onto the floor to make the sponge slide on is such a relatable experience. 😅

[@llamasugar5478]

Also, never being able to remove it . . .😢

[@EmaleyVirchow]

that moment of "I am in no reality going BACK TO THE HARDWARE STORE FOR THIS" moment of making it work X"D

[@bleepbloop3278]

I love the action edits at 17:21, they're so fun. Good job editor, you really rolled that tape

[@marshawargo7238]

I Love her editor❤! I don't think she could have found a better one to compliment her style more😊!!!

[@sharonknorr1106]

As I sit here with my morning tea contemplating my living room walls that need to be painted, here comes Danie full of energy and resolve. Will I paint my walls - doubtful, at least today. Do I find Danie inspirational - definitely. The studio is off to a great new stage of wonderfulness.

[@evilvick284]

I feel that making one of your triangle windows a stain glass window would be really cool.

[@robynw6307]

You make everything look so easy, Danie. I don't just mean the physicality, but the how-to knowledge. You inspire me so much.

[@heavenlymorsels]

Dani you are my Saturday morning cartoons - a favourite show I start my day with that’s make me so happy! 😁 You are an Inspiring, funny, talented, creative beautiful human! The best part about this series for me will be your creative process, the art projects, the color- oooh the color - bringing it together, but most of all the seeing what a unique beautiful piece of art your whole studio will become! 😊❤ 💃

[@lexiep616]

Giving me the inspiration to get dressed, make another coffee, and build 3 ikea wardrobes. ❤

[@raeperonneau4941]

You are a very brave woman! Lol

[@RaeC5280]

I love assembling furniture! I wish you all the enjoyment

[@dmmomma]

Today we join the Canadian team of DIY Danie as she competes in the Creating Your Own Workspace category. 10s!10s!10s Across The Board!!

[@breakfastsewingclub1170]

My 12 son loves your videos and as do I. We watch them together and I love how the content is so wholesome and uplifting. The world needs more Danie!

[@dmmomma]

Quick commercial for Craftsy. I joined this years ago and learned how to make an Swiss Meringue Buttercream by a well known Master Baker, Joshua John Russell and I've never turned back! Nothing measures up to the taste. Thanks Craftsy (no, I don't work for them) lol

[@jaggedone8474]

Terrible video this week. No Kenobi! Where was he? Did his SAG contract expire, or his agent demand more and better treats? 🤣 Yes, your persistence and dog-less (um dogged) determination was both inspirational and humbling. The progress you made was phenomenal. The studio space is looking great and will be such an incredible backdrop for all you endeavours,. But not even one brief cameo appearance by Kenobi. My heart is shattered, I am a huge Kenobi fan. Your vision, skill, and talent grow every project you take on. You are helping me, and others, to heal by slowly inspiring all of us to start creating. Thank you Danie for the energy and great positivity you send to all of us. The music track in this video was spot on, great choices.

[@brandilewis3498]

I love this comment so much ❤🤣

[@lechatbotte.]

Yay yay yay it’s SaturDIY with Danie. I’m so excited for this journey. Coffee check, dogs walked check, nothing to hold me back check. Release the creative one. Good morning Danie and Kenobi oh yes and Geoff

[@DIYDanie]

Ahhh don’t worry about him, we got everything we need 🤣🤣🫶❤️

[@Tessl3]

I’ve been watching you for a few years now, & I’m not big on leaving comments, but I had to today because I TOTALLY RELATE! 🤣 When you started to talk about Craftsy- going in for one thing & come out wanting to do something completely different- It happens all the time for me!! 😁 Anyway, I love watching you! I hope you never stop being you & sharing yourself with the rest of us artsy fartsy nerdy folks! 🤣💖

[@DIYDanie]

I’m glad you did ❤️ we creatives want to learn it alllllllll 🥰🥰🥰🥰💀

[@pondshrimp8158]

Babe wake up, new DIY Danie just dropped!

[@DIYDanie]

Wake up! Wake up! Wake up! ❤️🫶

[@phaj1823]

Your hair looks so great! ❤

[@juliebey8240]

You ARE Wonder Woman as your t-shirt says. Great job Danie 🙌👏👍😄

[@ajlacostewm]

As an artist, craftsy does have its value for those hobbyists. Who wish to expand their talents.

[@carolynyoung3615]

I love it when you a goofy then go very serious and then goofy again. So fun!

[@user-xz2nc9wh2x]

I'm VERY excited to see you do the floor, but I'm beyond excited to see the sliding door and window. You are amazing!

[@lindaroyal8161]

It looked huge before but now that it's painted, looks massive. It's so bright and plenty of room for all your creativity.

[@MG-zt1sc]

Already afternoon here in Bavaria, 3 pm. So let‘s grab a coffey and watch Danie! Have a great day you all out there. 😘

[@DIYDanie]

There is always time for a hot/cold combo! ❤️

[@MG-zt1sc]

And grandma‘s plum cake, we call „Zwetschgendatschi“. Nomnomnom. 😊

[@RobinGKT]

You too! It’s 10AM here in Florida, USA 🇺🇸

[@RaeC5280]

The Internet is a beautiful thing. To think someone in Bavaria enjoys the same videos as I, who lives half a world away, is just amazing. Danie unites us all! ❤️

[@MG-zt1sc]

@@RaeC5280 Yes! New sisterhood of mankind, 😊 in a way. It is always such a joy to watch her videos, her sparkling personality, and her editing is such a fun.

[@toriam15]

Yay, I'm so excited for the creative space. Can't wait to see it all unfold.

[@paulas_lens]

Danie (& editor) that was such FUN! Danie you ARE a Wonder Woman and coach to us all. The music had me dancing in my seat. I *loved* how you CELEBRATE when you finish! I have been trying to focus on doing *fun* things and WATCHING this channel *is* fun! :) Thank you for your tremendous effort and spirit.

[@SuperBlondenerd]

I cannot WAIT to see all the way you incorporate those splashes of color!!

[@loretta9478]

Bingo🎉 The studio looks fantastic, your hair is gorgeous, and you always play the best music! 🥂

[@alicejump2290]

How satisfying watching the paint spraying and rolling turned out to be! Enjoyed watching your dream foundation work and it was work! Pat yourself on the back and comfort yourself with a mini staycation! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@th3hyborean913]

What an absolute dream to have such a gorgeous blank canvas to play in, your going to have so much fun in the coming years filling your space with so much creativity🥰 LOVE THAT✨👌🏾

[@anneporter123]

Your energy is in the space. It's vibrant.

[@evlash721]

Your hair, makeup, and Wonder Woman shirt look at the end!!!! 🔥

[@catmintable]

Love the new studio space!! It will be so nourishing to ANYBODY's creativity! Can't wait for stained glass creations, painting creations, winter cozies with soft socks....

[@cathleenweaver6483]

The music when you were doing the window casings...mwah chef's kiss. I was rocking along with it 💜💙💚💛🧡

[@robincivis9501]

Girlllll....the space is a creative dream and you are going to thrive in it!!Can't wait to see what you have up your sleeve for the floors!

[@suzy1676]

CONGRATS!You & your hair looked great in this video. I think you seemed relaxed & happy during the promo part & on curly hair day!❤❤

[@Chipkowski]

Okay, can we talk about the hair, the make-up, the jewelery and the Wonder Woman shirt?! Cutie! ❤❤❤

[@ruthiebee6139]

❤❤

[@sibavaughnwiley1208]

Omg. I want to live in that studio space!! Bright, clean, creative space! So great to see it coming together!

[@melissam8939]

Nothing like tackling what should clearly be a buddy-build solo! A little ingenuity and maybe some supportive temporary screws are all one needs 🎉

[@Zillah82]

Danie, it looks so light and spacious! I'm excited about you having a bigger creative space.

[@ConfusedSoup]

seeing the primer go up made me cry, im so happy for you

[@AnnemarieHulsman]

Yes, the 'never ending story' dragon!

[@AuntieBrendaWashington-tp5mq]

Danie the Dynamo, I am in awe! You meet every challenge head on and with a smile on your face. You give me courage when I am a passenger on the struggle bus. ❤️2U

[@LoviPon]

Star Wars-themed stained glass would look amazing, like the Tatooine landscape or something!

[@donneverae3050]

Wow! The light! The space! The hard work!

[@ChelseaFavelle]

It looks like Falkor the luck dragon. Especially that scene where he’s flying in the night sky. ❤

[@Moonlit_Metalworks]

I’m living vicariously through your studio makeover! Can’t wait for the stained glass projects!

[@lovingmayberry307]

So excited for this series! Danie, you rock!!! 💜

[@TheBeautifullyOdd]

Awesome to see your space coming along! I am the sole painter and drywaller for a construction company and I can confirm, there is no hot sweaty mess like a paint spraying hot sweaty mess! 🤣 I get disposable dust suits when I know I'm doing a lot of it, and usually cut the legs off. They are more breathable than the full "bunny suit" that keeps liquids out. No matter what though, the respirator gets sweaty! Couple that with the hat, gloves, and long pants, plus covering up all the windows and it becomes a tropical, paint scented greenhouse. 😅

[@susanbilton9359]

Mitred corners and stretches of MDF are a mystery to me… you did great on the windows🤩🤩🤩🤓🤩🤩

[@HarvestLuna]

I love all the angles and shadows in the space. The foam looks like the dog/dragon from The NeverEnding Story. ❤

[@sherrypitt9889]

🦸‍♂️You are Wonder Woman Danie! This room is going to be fantastic! Great job my friend!

[@lynnh3710]

The space looks beautiful. I'm looking forward to seeing all the personal final touches. A "DIY museum" sounds cool.

[@jungcrone6459]

That is so much work, and it looks SO GOOD. You’re doing an amazing job, Danie! I’m perpetually amazed and inspired by your skill and ability to keep going, even when it starts to suck. From one quasi-burnt out DIYer to another, you’re doing a lot, don’t forget to give your body a break 🫡🤘🏼

[@candacegreen1163]

Can't wait to see the flooring done! Windows look gorgeous with that trim!🙏🏻💜🥳

[@KGlena-kx1df]

It would be a funny lil Easter egg to incorporate that sawed off insulation into an art piece to put on a styled shelf in the space 😂 Also loving the color! The warmth looks like buttercream or baked goods 💛

[@vickinoeske1154]

You are kickin butt, Dani!😊💪💪 The cutoff insulation = icicles hanging off the eave of a house.❤❄️

[@hollyhasegawa4240]

Oh gosh Danie I am loving the look of your studio and the painting you did and those windows being trimmed and caulked and soon you will paint them as well. I also like that entryway to that one area and seeing the doors installed and those sides with some sort of cool glassy type of decor will be so awesome. I am also curous as to the flooring you will put down. I also love your T-shirt that says "Wonder Woman" that descibes you for sure!! Have a great and beautiful weekend, sending love and hugs, bye!! 💜💜💜💜💜

[@mazjohansson9250]

Your hair looks amazing!!! Looking thicker and healthy 😍

[@mozwatch5708]

oooooh...it's beginning to look a lot like 'your studio' ; everywhere you look.. LOL love it! But the prettiest sight you'll see is DIY Dan-ie completing her wonderful place, to create her imagined space with much love, ideas and grace...and Kenobi💕 ..somethin' like that (not a song writer haha) Sky Lights....yup!! Going to be fantastic..BOOP

[@Kaytreenz]

Commenting again to say Dani’s hair is looking so good 🤩

[@Michelle-wd2oy]

Your studio space is HUGE!!! I love it!!

[@barbbrooks1591]

That was definitely the Luck Dragon Falko ❤. Great job cutting spray foam.

[@janetd4862]

I started using Craftsy before they changed their name (and then changed it back). With internet and sites like Craftsy, Ravelry, Facebook, and KZbin, we have so many resources when we want to learn a new craft. Compared to 1970, when I was sitting in my bedroom with a 50 cent book from Woolworth’s and a hairpin lace frame, trying to teach myself a new skill 🙄….we are so fortunate to have help at our fingertips. (That’s also how I learned macrame, knitting, embroidery, cross stitch, Hardanger, quilting, and crochet.) I have studio envy! My room is 15 ft x 24 ft, but it houses six sewing machines and three circular sock knitting machines (CSMs), plus fabric and yarn stashes. I tell people that it’s plenty of space…I just have to move from station to station sideways 😁.

[@Valqrose]

I also have that tentacle door handle pinned! It tickled me when I saw it on your mood board.

[@amandamoore4377]

You're incredible!! I'd love to know what time you get up in the morning & go to bed at night!? SERIOUSLY, sooo inspiring. I wish I had your energy. 🤣💕 Love & Hugs

[@tracyblalock4762]

I love Saturday mornings with Danie! This space is going to be amazing!! The floors are going to be a beast!! I’m waiting on the organizing and storage portion. That and this stained glass portion has sparked my curiosity the most! Get some rest friend! I’m exhausted for you!😊

[@JamiTripe]

The studio is really coming along. Way to go, GOOD JOB!!!!🥰

[@mariacabrera2850]

I'm so happy to see you happy!🖤

[@kindmindsrq459]

TY Diy Danie ! Your joyfulness, creativity, humour and perseverance ALWAYS entertaining and inspirational! Looking forward to stained glass, brilliant storage solutions and upcycled delights. Imo a swing would be a fantastic addition, cue the psychological test!😅

[@missytyrrell1]

I was a Craftsy member yeeeears ago - when I was learning how to quilt. I've signed up again - thank you 😊 - and am looking forward to learning something new.

[@Trufriend61]

Danie, you created Falkor! 😍 ~Chris

[@roxiepoe9586]

At 25:39 it looks like a Hopper painting! The whole space is lovely.

[@ahooten1955]

I am insanely jealous of your space.

[@AndrewLaSane]

This looks so fun (minus the sweaty hot mess part)

[@SheilaMiller-od7qn]

Hi Daniel, you did an excellent job painting the large room and the framing the windows!! I am so excited to see more!

[@thinkingbout]

I'm really excited for the creation process of your new studio! The paint transformed the space already so much! I'm interested in all the details, the story you want to tell with the space, how you consider safty regulations etc. while making the space fun and the creation of the different diy elements of the space of cause! :) Wishing you a nice weekend!

[@ariannaschafer3326]

So excited to see it all come together. It's happening!!!! Yeyyyyy!

[@DIYDanie]

It’s happpening!!!

[@sharonmakowsky172]

Hi, Danie! The workplace is shaping up! Love watching how things come together. I love your channel. I started watching you when you did a mystery challenge. You have a sparkling personality! Boop! 💜👍🥰

[@sunnygem21]

Yay! This is so exciting. Each task you do makes it look more polished. Can't wait to see the flooring.

[@MisKandi]

And the foam looked like a peace pipe to me. 😊

[@L.J.H.-sg6eb]

Danie, you have found your creative groove. Loving the vibes.❤

[@sofiaschoice3282]

I love you DIYs but I love your personality more!!!❤ keep being you and let us enjoy you ❤

I’m so so jealous of your studio space…. SO much creative possibilities ❤

[@eremie2899]

You’re freaking amazing when using your magic! ❤

[@oldestsis3]

Paused halfway through to go join craftsy, I recently started cross stitching after a decades long hiatus, so timing is perfect. Thanks so much, Danie. p.s., I love your hair.

[@asiaclayed]

Hair is so cute! Little Meg Ryan from you've got mail kinda and love it

[@sallysmith956]

Wonderful to watch, learn, laugh, admire!! 🦋

[@tamara10]

What a great base. Can't wait to see what you'll do with the floors

[@kathysantos2594]

Looks fantastic!!!! So Jealous!!!

[@prosie1968]

Picture framing trim is really so hard! We butt joined all our doors and it looks so clean and it’s super easy. Good for you for doing the hard thing and by yourself.

[@biblio_mama]

I am sooo excited for you. What an amazing accomplishment. This studio rocks!!!!

[@erikaclancy1187]

Had to pause to just say ... kudos to the editor! Well done! Really enjoying the music as well :)

[@therewillbecatswithgwenhwyfar]

I grew up in the Pacific Northwest in Washington state, in the US. I love listening to the rain on the roof. I understand it's not conducive to filming but I still love the sound.

[@therewillbecatswithgwenhwyfar]

Oh my goodness you are such a distraction! I'm supposed to be doing things in the kitchen instead I'm just standing here staring at my phone! 😂😂😂

[@therewillbecatswithgwenhwyfar]

I'm so excited that you're feeling better! I was really with you when you we're going through the major depression and it's so fun to see you coming up the other side!

[@RaeC5280]

Oregon gal here, couldn't agree more. Love hearing the rain in the metal roof of the carport

[@charliecat654]

This really is an exciting series, and I can only imagine how exciting this is for you... 😊 I can feel the excitement. The paint alone is a huge transformation. I can appreciate all of your hard work. The window frames turned out nicely. Better yet, you have some beautiful views from where I sit. I'm looking forward to what comes next.

[@stephaniemills5663]

You are AMAZING!!! Fabulous job! I cannot believe you did it all by yourself! You should be so proud of yourself!! I love it all and can’t wait to see the finished product! You have enough room that you could have in person classes. You are so inspiring, so willing to learn the things you don’t know and willing to try showing your mistakes along the way.

[@drewrose8215]

Beyond excited for your creative space & this week’s sponsor, Craftsy. Already signed up for annual membership and looking to become more creative along with you, Danie.

[@user-tv5rn8yi6v]

Danie, you are amazing!! The studio is really coming together. I’m really looking forward to see what you do with the stained glass. I also love organization so looking forward to seeing your storage solutions.

[@merrinatrix]

I am looking forward to seeing you set up you paining station and creating your work tables!
