[@CVenza]

Please can you post the dimensions of your garden shed? also the greenhouse. 🧡💛💙

[@DaintyDiaries]

@@CVenza Hey, the greenhouse is 8ft X 8ft and not sure about the shed, it is small, roughly 6ft X 4ft. but not definite.

[@Clarityinspire]

My favourite bit was you using the rake 😅 I can so relate but well done for overcoming 🥰🤣xxx

[@aliagnes6166]

I love that you do all this handy man work dressed like a lovely lady. Way to go, you are super sweet.

[@DaintyDiaries]

Aw, thank you Ali x

[@cherylmacedo5521]

Ok Dainty Catherine....your little Potting Shed is a remarkable sweet makeover. Truly unbelievable what you did. Everything you do is beautiful, inspirational, and just what our eyes, hearts, and souls crave. ❤️🤍💚💕. Isn’t it special to have a brother who loves you enough to come by and help. My brother lives 600 miles away, yet will be coming to see me tomorrow for a week’s visit to help me in the yard and garden. Haven’t seen him for 2 years and it’s like Christmas Eve to me....🥰🥰🥰❤️🥰🥰🥰

[@DaintyDiaries]

I'm very lucky he could help!! Thank you so much that's so sweet! ❤️❤️

[@nickie5767]

Bless you. Spiders don’t bother me but I am PETRIFIED of mice and their bigger cousins! Gives me the jitters ! Fab job , wish you lived near to me! Xxxx

[@martinamagulova2033]

Hi, dear Catherine.👋😉 I don't want to repeat myself, but I can't do otherwise. You're just GREAT !!!👍😊 Thanks for another great video. With love and greetings Maťa from Slovakia🐈🍀🐞🌳🐦🎶 Bye

[@Karen.ON.Canada]

Here I am, rewatching your shed video for motivation as I tackle my little shed. It's a job I've been putting off for years and what a dreadful mess! Thanks for the inspiration, Catherine.

[@emeraldalba]

🕷🕷🕷🕷🕷!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Shivareeeeeee Spiders! Feel your fear Catherine, you're a braver gal than I Gunga Din! Hahahahaha But what a difference a lick of paint can do to a webful and spideree shed! Can't wait to see it all Daintified with pretty curtains and trinkets and treasures! Also, look forward to seeing your new greenhouse full of growing greenery. Fab video and a welcome wee change this week for me. Been a bit crap this week but a bit of Dainty cheers me up no end. Thanks lovely lass!

[@nancypeteja6560]

It looks very nice! A greenhouse...what a great idea! 🏠🌱🌱🌱

[@karilynjaquest8739]

Great job getting past the spiders. We have redbacks and huntsmans in ours. I don't mind spiders but those huntsmans are huge and fast and hide in little crevices and give you a fright even though they are harmless.

[@rn1005018]

Your shed is so beautiful! You are such a hard working woman! Now you deserve a vacation after all of that. Thank you for inspiring us!

[@ASC470]

You do everything with such love & care! Enjoy all your ideas.

[@tbone1989]

What a cute little shed you have...with a bird house on the front. 💞💕 Love the window and the shelf outside. A lovely set of curtains inside and maybe a wind chime near by outside? I’m ok with spiders, every creature has a purpose. Just not on me...lol. Personally I have a thing about tree frogs...long story. Loved hearing the robins! I caught two visiting one of my bird baths recently. So awesome! I think this is the first time I’ve seen you get paint on you...lol. Great job!

[@mamasaidno1749]

I gave this a thumbs up when you were tackling emptying the shed. That fact that you did it IN A DRESS, impressed me no end! While I'm not afraid of spiders, I still would have been in jeans, the legs tucked into boots, long sleeve shirt, work gloves, and my hair well covered with a kerchief! It looks very nice, great job.

[@heatherchambers1609]

Incredible difference with a coat of paint (and several fewer spiders)!

[@deepestanio4625]

Seeing a spider in the bathroom in the morning freaks me out for the day lol! What a beautiful job you did in spite of him or her❤️

[@seacrow6916]

Love your videos and look forward to your adventures. I've been putting off cleaning out my shed, but told myself "If sweet Dainty Catherine is brave enough to tackle hers, I must at least try to clean mine." Thank you for the encouragement. Now I can hardly wait to see your greenhouse!

[@alicewhite5288]

👍👍😃So nice!!tyfs🌹🌷🌸🌻🌼🐈🐾Blondie is too cute. I have Cardinals....I love them!

[@cherylmckay6806]

Hello girl! I love that you just get 'ur done. You would be fun to live next to. Eight years of equity in your home! Clever. 🌸💚🌸

[@glennslick3060]

If the bookcase was on a table you could still wheel the mower under it or out and pot your plants on the table just a thought. Oh and great job as usual

[@Anncheryl61]

Oh yeah spider lady, I confronted my spider shed yesterday too, thanks to you .....and my skin is still crawling! But I got rid of lots of garbage❤️

[@DaintyDiaries]

That's so good!! You did it! ❤️

[@paulinedean175]

Catherine I loved it as always 🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🦋

[@kayalford6746]

Love this video and the robin singing. Isn’t it amazing how much room you have in a shed when you clean it out. It’s beautiful now. My friends thought I was silly to paint the inside of my shed. I just said it makes me happy when I walk in.

[@DaintyDiaries]

Yea, nice and light when you open the door, it lifts the spirits x

[@Jo.H.]

You did a great Catherine, a good declutter and a lick of paint does wonders. I’m not scared of spider’s but petrified of mice and rat’s. When I first moved into my home a rat ran from under my shed. I rang the council and they asked did I use bird feeders, I did. They said that’s why, and I live around the corner from a canal. I didn’t think about rat’s and canal situation when I bought my house, I still check the shed before I go in 😂 21 yrs later 😊 Have a lovely weekend 😊💖

[@DaintyDiaries]

Aw nooo that does not sound fun!! Thanks for stopping by Jo xx

[@Jo.H.]

@@DaintyDiaries I love the canal, beautiful walk’s with my dog’s. But I still check the shed 😂 even though I have only seen a rat once. Take care 💖

[@mariebrennan1229]

You are a credit to your family, they should be so proud of you 😇

[@DaintyDiaries]

That’s so kind Marie x

[@CottageontheCorner]

I bet you could make a greenhouse outof old windows. You should make some stepping stones for that area out of concrete.

[@helenirving7415]

👏👏👏👏well done tackling your shed what a great job you done 👍 hope it's not too long till you get your greenhouse can't wait for the make overs on your furniture pieces great video take care 🤗

[@DaintyDiaries]

Hopefully soon!!

[@stephm281]

Job well done cleaning out and painting your shed. Blondes like our big boy. He’d rather lay there and watch. Lol 👍🏻👍🏻

[@jo-annebotha9609]

Catherine, I had such a laugh when I watched you clearing out with the spider repellent device (rake). Not a condescending laugh, though, a sympathy one. I'm always afraid that spiders will jump on me. Can't wait to see your greenhouse!

[@DaintyDiaries]

The fear was real! 🤣🤣🤣

[@Emeralds.Bee4]

I don’t have a shed but watching your shed transformation was very inspiring 🏠 🌳

[@DaintyDiaries]

Glad you enjoyed it x

[@rachelphelps6347]

In my shed I'd be more watchful for snakes and mice rather than spiders!! I have read that Ireland doesn't have any snakes! Wow!! Love seeing you use the spray painter. That sure looks easier than brush painting and so much faster!! Looks great! Another job well done Catherine!!

[@janewhitlock9074]

I had a giggle lol but oh God it makes you feel great to have a clear out well done looking good girl x

[@opalmoon2256]

Congrats!!! Ur Potting Shed turned out great! Totally enjoying the little birds singing on the background, so lovely spending time on Ur channel cant wait till next time..😻Blondie such a cutie pie!!!💗🌷🐦🐝

[@daniellem5175]

Awesome makeover. Well done!! You have inspired me to clean out my garage!! Love hearing the birds in the background!🤗

[@cathylynnpietranton]

Hi Catherine you had us laughing the way you were cleaning your shed out because you thought a spider might get you lol The shed looks great 2 Chicky tumbs up👍👍❤

[@mrsladybugnz]

I feel you, spiders are just horrible...too many legs! Thanks for your video

[@pennyhanson2598]

I bet you were glad when the job of emptying out the shed was over! It looks great with a coat of light paint and so much easier to keep an eye out for spiders! Hope you don’t have to wait too long for your greenhouse! 🤞🏻 Kind regards from Penny in Liverpool 🇬🇧😊💕

[@DaintyDiaries]

Thanks for watching Penny ❤️I was soo glad! totally worth it x

[@zoeemiko8149]

I got one of the Rubbermaid storage benches to set on the side of my house in a small garden area. The bottom is a big storage area I use to store all my saved wood! It keeps it dry & protected but it still useful for seating. I made cushions for it there is just enough room left to tuck inside during bad weather. Great job on the potting shed! It looks so clean & crisp inside & out now.

[@pattanaka7697]

Love the birds, Catherine love watching your videos❤🙋🏻‍♀️💐🍃🌸🌿

[@suzannechabot1508]

So proud of you for getting in there and overcoming your spider fear to clean out the shed....great Job! It's so nice and clean.....but you know what would look nice, would be shutters on either side of the window with a window box with flowers.....just a little suggestion....

[@ourdiyary]

The refresh looks amazing! So much brighter and cleaner. The addition of the shelf under the window is also very nice! 💕

[@DaintyDiaries]

Thank you Lindsey 💕 More room for the pots!!

[@ildikoromanoczki9012]

It was like watching myself clearing that shed out 😂😂 I have the exact same reaction to spiders 😂😂 hateful little buggers!

[@tammyjohnson7401]

But they do eat many unwanted garden pest, so becareful what you spray.

[@lindaketner2142]

I am impressed with that sprayer. Great job on your lawn!

[@erenalovicollier8523]

Yahoo for the humble shed. Great job Catherine. Smiles from down under 🇳🇿👍😀💐

[@DaintyDiaries]

Thanks Erena! Glad you liked it, thanks for watching x

[@karensaville913]

In Auz we have the worst spiders very nasty..we tend to spray first and tackle latter🕷🕸😁all you have done and plan to do just super..will be waiting to see🥰

[@ΦύλλιςΡάπτη]

Great job!! Your home is like a fairytale! Every single corner of it! Many kisses from Greece!! Bravo!!

[@DaintyDiaries]

Your so kind, thank you xxx

[@amybriggs6586]

I can't wait to see you potting shead !!!! Nothing like a garden spot ❤❤❤

[@jamiemasterson3029]

You have a lovely home, and you work so hard to keep it so. Every inch of your property screams with your love and personality. Well done, you.

[@DaintyDiaries]

aw that means so much to me! I love making my space my own 💕 💕

[@MazCud]

You did an amazing job! Very soothing and inspirational vid 🥰🥰

[@amberastrophil]

You have inspired me to begin working on our storage shed. I've been wanting to but going to make time for it now. 🙂

[@chrisprpich7019]

Love your shed. It looks so cute. Can’t wait to see your green house.😀❤️🇨🇦

[@JD-kb5bq]

Looks Fabulous Catherine, Great Job!!!!!!

[@gingerspath3565]

You were very brave! It looks AWESOME!

[@jacklynbennett620]

You are a blessed and talented young woman. Very impressive makeover.

[@dianacockerill9479]

...”a talent for stuffing things into small places” 🤣🤣 that’s me too 👍🏻

[@sitiaisyahhappas9618]

I'm very busy, therefore I will watch your videos one by one but a bit later. But I make sure to make time watching them. I love your videos. You're an inspiration. You go girl! 😍

[@nancylayman9247]

Love your sign.

[@oceanbrzzz]

Catherine! Wonderful video. I didn’t have hooks - In my shed I pounded 2 nails close together and hung up shovels, forks, rakes etc. across 2 walls of my shed. I felt so proud of myself. (I have lots of big nails).

[@beverlymartin1414]

Perfection ! First place award for :Spider Relocation " to Catherine . ..Good job...Great video. You make everyones day... Just a thought . .I live in Florida - Home of every creepy crawling slithering hopping creature. Even frogs with suction cups on their feet that crawl up your windows, doors, siding. Want to visit ? Back to the point. Next time out see if you can find to buy a small can of pressurize "Raid "brand maybe - comes in various sizes - "bug bomb". Once every couple of months Set one out in the shed- remove cap and set to spray. Close door. Wait overnight and then reopen shed, ventilate and you are good to go. PS love your new sprayer. Rinse very well when not in use....

[@wendywonka143]

Hi Catherine! I cannot wait to see your Green House, I've been wanting one for awhile myself so yours might be the inspiration I need!

[@auntbee4753]

You didn’t even get the spilled paint on anything! Loos very pretty!

[@Poppy-]

Ha ha ha how accurate! The ad before this was Mc Donald's: hash browns 🍟😂 I am so glad you finally tackled the shed. Everything you touch turns pretty and dainty. Giving us frugal ideas to do and declutter our own shed/porch.

[@DaintyDiaries]

Thanks for watching Poppy 💕 That's a sign to get the hash browns!!

[@chrisandjasmine3077]

Great declutter video Catherine. You were so brave tackling the spider carpet lol. I'm terrified of spiders and would ask my husband to deal with them but he doesn't like them either lol. Your shed is so tidy it's fab. We have three sheds in our small garden a daddy shed, mummy shed and a baby shed. We have no garage like at our cottage so had to put up my wee small old shed and hubby had to buy a new shed to put his Motorbike in which he put beside the shed that came with our house. In my big shed we have it full of tools and DIY stuff and two metal tables and 8 chairs and a 8 seater dining table a toilet tent and two deck chairs and a sun lounger and a large parasol and a gazebo and an outdoor coffee table sofa and two arm chairs plus a fudge freezer and a tall larder freezer. Barely room to move in there can't wait til the storms and bad weather stops so I can empty the shed and put all the furniture back outdoors and get the gazebo back up. Like you I would love a greenhouse but have no space left lol. I would use a greenhouse as like a mini orangery and put a wee seat and table in it with some pretty flowers in pots and a wee outdoor chandelier 😊. Look forward to seeing your greenhouse once it comes 😊xx

[@TheMag625]

I would love a Hartley greenhouse, would be a dream comes true 💖💖💖 Your garden is looking sooo lovely xx

[@michellelewis6952]

As a girl whose not afraid of spiders, watching your tentative actions really made me giggle....but hats off to you for attacking it so well...it looks fabulous ☺️👏👏👏

[@DaintyDiaries]

Aw, thanks Michelle, Altough, my brother did most of the spider removal for me lol x

[@janetbyrne7765]

Catherine, I’m so proud of you! I have been waiting for this video. You’ve mentioned a few times since I’ve been watching your videos that you had to deal with that shed and those spiders!! I knew you would eventually do it, because you are always doing what most of us are too nervous to try without your encouragement. This is a VERY satisfying video! Your shed turned out beautifully! I always laugh when I see you wearing a Dainty outfit to do a messy job! So, thank you for showing me how to approach a challenging task with a good can-do attitude!

[@DaintyDiaries]

That means so much to me thank you for the sweet words ❤️❤️

[@theguest3389]

Great job on your shed!!! You were very brave facing those spiders!!! 🥳🎊🥳 Your yard is really coming along. 😷😎😷

[@karenrickard8237]

Love the bird song. My garden backs onto an open space and can hear many birds. Their song is good for the soul. Definately clears the head to declutter. Grand job honey 👍🤩 xxx

[@lindsey43ful]

Hi Catherine, have binged watched all your videos since discovering your channel. Loving your vibe!. Keep doing what you’re doing x

[@soarinpanda8walker563]

I also hate spiders so you were brave to get in there and clear it out.It looks so much better.Thanks for sharing.

[@Kelli.Hicks.5]

Looks great! I love the addition of the shelf under the window.

[@lorrainewhitlock5377]

💐 you did a very good job on your shed. it looks really nice

[@larag1764]

The robin's song was so pretty (we don't have them in Australia). You were so brave to tackle those spiders !!!

[@DaintyDiaries]

I was lucky my brother was there to help! 😂😂 Thanks for watching Lara xx

[@kitchenworker446]

A good de clutter of anything- a drawer, a room or a shed is sooooo satisfying. I love a good clear out. I have gone from being a collector ( Im not going to say hoarder!) to being a minimalist- and I love it!!

[@DaintyDiaries]

It's the most satisfying thing! x

[@moyaking8961]

I have recently moved to a 3 bedroomed bungalow with lots of fruit trees and 2 Olive trees. I've done a ton of stuff including a rockery today. My husband keeps saying it'll be maintenance soon. He doesn't understand that a gardener is always striving for that certain something to be added to the garden. My next purchase will be a Summerhouse. But before I get that I need to rebuild a wooden arch that I found by the bin 😀

[@casbabe63]

Looks so much better, well done x

[@loriar1027]

There's something so joyous about starting to clear up the garden after winter is over. Great job on the shed!

[@roxymcdonald6518]

Can’t wait to see the greenhouse!!!

It looks great! Your yard is very pretty😎👍❤️

[@jillarmstrong3731]

Absolutley satisfying. I cant what to see your greenhouse install as well. You are awesome Dainty,such a hard worker,talented ,sharp dressed with great friggin hair! You inspire us all. Cheers

[@TheLornarea]

Also don't like spiders - they come out of nowhere and they run so fast! You were very brave and I like what you have done to it......................looks so much better. Love the videos You are a girl after my heart as most things you do I approve of. I am 75 years old and blind (Not completely) but can't do all the things I want to. You certainly inspire me to "get on with it" so carry on the good work! Lorna

[@maddy3sonmomma911]

I love how enthusiastic you are! Do so enjoy the planning part of gardening. Spent all day working in the garden. It’s the best, plus I’ll sleep well tonight! Now you’ve given me the thought to clean out the shed. 🌸

[@emmasumner4120]

Love how excited you are about a greenhouse, my partner came back with one last week for me that he bought for £50, most of the glass in intact apart from a couple of pieces. I was soooo excited. Alot of women would love to be brought back diamonds, no not me much prefer a green house.❤️

[@DaintyDiaries]

That sounds ideal omg! that's the level of excitement a greenhouse needs 💕

Oooh, so nice. You inspired me to clean my shed. Thank you Catherine. It looks so nice

[@beautifuldreamer6247]

Very cute and fun video. A word of caution...never keep paint and chemicals in a shed. It could easily catch fire on a hot day.

[@little_misscrafty]

Grand job Catherine. The shed looks fabulous and can't wait to see the greenhouse coming to be. You should have segment on gardeners world to inspire 🥰💖👍 BTW did my declutter over the bank holiday weekend, I have 8 bags ready to go to the charity shop Wop Wop 🥳

[@DaintyDiaries]

That's brilliant! Successful declutter for you x

[@little_misscrafty]

@@DaintyDiaries taking leaf from your book. It's amazing how much lighter emotionally the letting go made me feel x

[@quietbelle8662]

So cute! You should consider msking a flower bed on the right side of the shed turning into the bar! I can imagine it fill of pretty coloured hydrangeas!

[@josimpson7999]

You are such a lovely cheerful soul, and love your sweet accent too 🇬🇧

[@StephBer1]

Living in Australia, I dream of having the problem of a few harmless, non deadly spiders. It's the snakes and the redback spiders that live in my garden and garage that I have to be careful of. *shudder* It still doesn't stop me from cleaning out things - I just look exactly like you did! Your garden is adorable😊

[@alyshaelkin3050]

I googled redback spiders. Good times. I’m currently watching a video of a guy taking care of an infestation of them in some lady’s garden. I’m a glutton for punishment, I guess.

[@lifeofaimee6259]

I love it...so excited to see it finished...

[@sherriebulechek8353]

I would have put on my garden gloves 🧤 I hate spiders too. I was jumping with you! Lol it’s so lovely. It’s your magic touch. And the spiders say “Thank you for fixing up our shed” lol

[@antoniayallop4530]

We have a toxic waste amnesty every year at certain recycling centres where I’m from. I store my old paint tins safely until September every year 😊

[@janebrown3587]

omg you're SO brave!!! Me, I'd be wearing a full beekeeper's suit head to toe, double gloves AND using the rake like you did, lol! Whoa - that shed looks fantastic after the power clean! Beautiful wood interior, but painting reflects so much light - so freaking cute!!!

[@DaintyDiaries]

ha ha, a beekeepers suit, I love it. That made me giggle
