Are you excited to see this start to come together?!
Good morning, A M B! ❤️😁💯
This is exciting 😊
AllyMarie, you are sooo unbelievably beautiful ✨❤️🔥✨❤️🔥 and so FIERCE.. taking that precious lil home from despair to dreamy is absolute poetry!! Hugs to you both!!
those stunning winter scenes look like lightly colorized black&white photographs.. very sleek and stylish in its frigid simplicity ❄️✨❄️✨❄️.. loove them pop up outdoor storage quansets (?🧐)!!
ohhh that Ufo 3!!! so that’s the bomb!
I love a good DYI project. Hope you'll do a cookbook, too!
@@lynndillon9194 ohhhh that’s an awesome possum idea Lynn✨❤️🔥✨❤️🔥✨👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🎉✨🎊✨🎊.. and Kyle could do the illustrations in it!!!
Ally, whatcha think?!!🙏🏻✨🙏🏻✨🦋💙✨🎊✨🎉✨🥳🥳🥳🥳
Ally..just a heads up. i see others have commented too. Ive lived in 3 homes with mold now, my advice would be to replace the walls, painting over them unfortunately will activate the mold spores & not solve the problem. The sickness thats come from Mold is life threatening. The spores get into the lungs & brain. I had loss of memory, lethargy, constant allergies, wheezing, muscle pain & so on. Its not worth your health. Please take care x
Oh man, that is scary. Thank you for your care and concern! We will certainly be taking this very seriously as we proceed.
My heart dropped when you mentioned mold, as someone who has and is dealing with mold illness with their entire family. Look up mycotoxins, way more harmful and harder to remove than the actual visual mold you can see. We have to basically get rid of everything we own, move and detox , we are very sick.
if you’re dealing with mold, please wear the right PPE. Mold sickness is no joke and it seriously is so bad for you and takes forever to detox from 😬😩
This is also coming from someone currently dealing with mold sickness and trying to detox from it
You’re right! Mold is scary. I can’t wait to get rid of it once and for all. Going to be cautious as we continue. Wishing you the best as you detox from it!
Hi Ally, please Google Johnson Mold Story. It is my story and my husband's. We still are left with the effects from the mold. My husband and I are permanently disabled from living in our home that had mold in the attic. We had no idea that it was there, it was completely covered in black mold because a plumber didn't hook our bathroom vents out to the roof. Our attic had no ventilation and it was filled with steam from showering everyday for 18 years. We never looked in our attic! You are too young to have this happen to you! I wish you both so much health and happiness! I hope you're able to get your home completely and safely renovated! Take care and keep making videos, you're terrific at it! Xx from Vancouver Washington USA!😊
I love how you are not afraid to jump right into any project. You are so willing to learn driving the equipment and use any tool. Really glad you are doing more videos.
Thanks a bunch!
Omg can’t believe you guys moved in a year ago time truly flies. So nice to see new video up after a month 🎉❤🎉
Seriously, it’s crazy to think about! Got to cherish the moments :)
Love your videos Ally and seeing your newest adventures & progress! I just wanted to add- please please please be careful doing DIY work with mold. If there’s water damage & signs of mold on the wall, chances are there’s mold inside certain parts of the walls & under floors / base boards. It can get you extremely sick over time. Please be safe!❤️🫶🏻
Thank you! We are definitely proceeding with caution on this one. So spooky.
Ally please keep making videos! They are calming, yet highly inspiring and motivating. You have a clear strong narrative voice-and your aesthetic choices and editing is top notch!
Holy smokes! Thank you so much. This put a HUGE smile on my face!
Hi I really enjoy your content and mean no harm in saying this but please wear your PPE when renovating, even when painting and demolishing. Especially glasses/goggles speaking as someone with an eye injury. Something could easily get in your eyes and could cause a scratch or even chemical burn (paint). Be careful out there, again no hate just a friendly reminder for everyone! 💙💜
Thanks for the caring words! We’ll certainly be careful with this as we progress
Being 54 myself, I remember how popular A frames were. Oh to be your age again! It doesn't seem like I'm 54 until I start to move or try to remember something LOL!
I had that fire and desire to buy a house and make it mine. That dream came to fruition in 2010 when I got my first house at 40! And then my health tanked. I'm finally, albite slowly, on the mend-ish, some of my issues on have one cure and that is what'll happen in about 50 years haha ahhh well, I can live vicariously through you.
Enjoy all that you have, life is good.
Thank you for sharing with us.
Thanks for your kind words, wishing you all the best and good health. Grateful for you taking time to share some memories!
I always use ceramic and wood utensils when making sourdough that’s what I learned from the Alaskan cookbook ❤️Some how metal utensils stops the rising and fermentation.
Interesting! Thanks for sharing :)
love watching y'all fix up that beautiful A~frame in the woods and of you making all your goodies from nature too wishing y'all a blessed weekend
I had nearly forgotten how far you guys have come with the A frame! You've done such incredible work to get it to where it is now, you guys never cease to amaze and impress!! We are currently in a small condo and are looking forward to investing in a property in NH to do exactly this. Following your journey has kept the fire in my soul going for hopes to one day be living out this dream. Much love 🤍
I never wanted this video to end! I love watching the renovation process!
love me some basic white in a rustic cabin with a huge potencial
A lot of hard work but the rewards when you’re finished will be great. I can tell you from my own experience of a project like this is the satisfaction you feel when it’s finished is immeasurable! Keep plugging away!
Very true! Thanks! :)
Enjoyed seeing the renovations and your future plans for your home. Lots of hard work and time but will be rewarding. Projects ALWAYS require more time than we think and also some unexpected set backs. Good job guys!!
Thank you so much! I appreciate the kind words.
You two are so lucky to have this beautiful property to make it your own. Thanks again for sharing your process. Keep remembering your "self care" time. 🤗🥰🤗
Thank you. It has been a lot of hard work to get here, and it feels good to be experiencing these moments :)
Drywall removal tip! Use one of those small powerful earth magnets and rub it over the sheetrock to find the screws, you can use a stud finder first. Once you find one, use a screw driver to dig out the mud, and then just unscrew with your drill attachment. Once you get going, it goes super fast, just make your way down each stud, and then measure over 16" to the next one. Then you can pull down whole sheets at a time. It's WAY cleaner and less dusty, and pretty darn fast!
Thank you for the idea! That’s smart.
I’ve just come across your channel, I’m 3 mins into one video and I’m already so keen to see more. Consider me invested haha.
That is brave to buy a house with so much problems. I am fed of repairing my house and things related to the house. Have cost me a fortune for ten years, and I am not young, so I give up. Will miss my garden a lot, but, I want to be able to do anything else then repairing, painting, do carpenter-jobs etc. You are young and you are not alone, so that is helping. Stay strong.💪💪💫
Thank you! Sorry to hear about your situation, wishing you the best as you proceed
Love your videos. You and Kyle have such a unique way of filming. Takes me back to the 70s. Thank you. ❤
Awe thank you!! That’s so cool to hear.
So happy you are still making videos, Ally. As much as I love Kyle’s channel, I even love yours more!! 🌟
Thank you! I took some breaks this winter but I’m back and ready to share this journey!
I can't tell you how happy I. Am for you and Kyle, to have this lovely property to renavate.. It will be gorgeous when you have done but we, are enjoying the ride with you in the mean time,,, your dedication is to be admired👍 😘😉💕I always love the cooking too 💋🍳
Thank you so much! Very kind of you.

Thank you so much! Very cool to hear you’re watching from across the world.

Omw Ally welcome back ❤❤❤
Thanks for being here!
Mold illness is terrible. I truly hope yall get every bit of it out of your house. 🫶
Thank you! We certainly will do our absolute best.
This is amazing
Awe thanks!!
Words can’t describe the inspiration you pour out to others, thank you, Ally
Oh my gosh thank you so much!
Great video Ally. I sub to your channel but I so appreciate the ‘re-cap’ to remind us where your channel began and where it is today - especially on specific projects. I often wish more CZcams channels would do the same. Above all, I so appreciate your detail descriptions how you make your products because I benefit as a frequent ETSY Lucid Lavender customer.
I appreciate this all so much, truly, thank you!
I love all your nature knowledge of what is medicinal and whatnot! How did you learn about this? Something I'm trying to get into :) Great video! So inspiring!
Thank you so much! I’ve been self teaching but also enrolled in an apprenticeship this year.
Thank you
Thank you for watching!
Love how you throw yourself into things to make the life you want! I make CZcams videos in a similar spirit as you and really admire how you manage to pull off SO many demanding projects AND shoot AND have time to edit! Whoohoo! Cheering you on kindred spirit friend!
Awe wow thank you! Awesome to hear you’re making similar videos too :) I’ll have to check it out
So good to see you dear! You’re absolutely glowing too! Just gorgeous☺️
And the birch!! That’s so awesome!! When you popped it your mouth, it reminded me of kindergarten at a little church school, wear my Native American friend said I would be black like my best friend Joy, so I chewed on a little branch he gave me.
Needless to say I’m still white haha. We all had a laugh and probably skinned our knees in a leg race after that😆😅💗
Hi there! Thank you! Hahah oh my gosh what a memory. Cool to hear that it reminded you of that!
Hahaha! Kyle "A dried weed leaf.... there was an operation here"
Ginger turmeric lemon is what you need to make in your blender for you and Kyle for your cold use your herbs and your remedies Ali you know they work
Yes! Exactly. I hope to learn to grow all of those things as well one year.
Harper ❤
This is literally my dream. How did you guys find this property?
Oh my. But this is the chance you take. And as you do the work anew with new materials.
Lots of work, but very eager and excited :)
U should have checked out best pizza in Brooklyn, Di Fara Pizza.
You two are awesome. Love watching you . Yall have it going on. Keep positive and strong. Pray and love a lot, you got this. Hugs!
Thank you so much!!
way to go if you got it for right price sweat equity pays off going to be a real nice home and it will be 100 yours
Thank you!
Love the beautiful garden, and the house work. I thought y'all were going to re side the house. Best of luck...I don't know what % of products you are selling, maybe if low you can maybe pool with another persons products. Obviously you may not want to. Love your videos!!❤❤❤❤
I like your videos very much.
Thank you very much!
Nice😊
Thank you! Cheers!
Ally we are worried your sheds will get flooded as they are not on higher ground ...that would not be fun. :)
The sheds will only be in place for a month or two :)
@@allymariebrown :)
Gas pipe clothes hangers??? Nice content, thanks 😊
Blessings Helena Montana
Thank you!
You are such an inspiration to young women. Great video. :()
Wow thanks!
Does anyone know what color blue paint she has on the walls at 4:54? It's absolutely gorgeous!
Any blue paint was there prior to moving in, otherwise I would tell you. If I ever find out I’ll let you know!
please be careful of asbestos in the older homes and sheetrock.
We will be! Thanks
Hi 🌳
Hi!
My wife and I really enjoy your channel but I did want to mention one thing. As a veterinary microbiologist (not a veterinarian), I saw where you harvest birch sap, presumably to make birch sugar. You should be aware that birch sugar is primarily xylitol, an alcohol sugar, which is often used as a sugar substitute in breath mints. While xylitol is not harmful to humans, it can cause a dramatic blood glucose drop in dogs to teh point of being life threatening. This is become more of a problem as more “Natural” products are being labelled as birch sugar rather than xylitol as a means of sounding more wholesome or safer. Since most people do not know that birch sugar is xylitol, it may be worth mentioning on your channel so that dog owners would be aware. Please check with your veterinarian on this, if you want to confirm what I am saying.
I confirm. My son’s Husky ate a whole pack of Dyntene Ice. It didn’t hurt him but he was very sick
Yes, I have heard this and am very cautious in that regard :) Thanks for helping spread this useful info!
Your only using paint to treat the mold?
For the time being. Then we plan to remove the moldy drywall.
@allymariebrown I was in a cabin in Key Largo that used the paint to seal it but I could still smell it permanenting the walls 🧱 😳 . In another location at my homes I am going to try a brand by Sherwin Williams to see if that will help. They have a Paint that is said to repell moisture
Also painting sanitizes. BTW when I'm back north I'm going to get some of your lip balm
Please wear work gloves for protection. I sliced my finger open while doing outside projects and needed 10 stitches. I have permanent nerve damage too.
🖐😎👍
Hi!
Wtf I can't believe I'm the only one that mention these
The house you in looks the same as another youtuber house I don't have his nam but I'm sure someone else do
you'll be so surprised
Jesus loves you and is with you
Thanks for the kind words!
Je note que vous déambulez nus pied dans un,lieux en rénovation,avec des moisissures et aucun masque pour enlever l’isolation😮et à mains nues ;. J’espère que c’est uniquement pour la vidéo et que vous êtes plus prudents par ailleurs( mais c’est un mauvais message) Sinon a quoi bon se nourrir bio par ailleurs…
