Behind the Scenes at REISSUED 

Ignore the hate! You’re amazing! Don’t worry about imperfections or ideal lighting, background noise, etc. Viewers don’t really notice these things-we enjoy your content, creativity and helpful tips. I want to tell you that I think it so amazing that you have this shared experience with your parents. The quality time together will be moments you will cherish forever. I also appreciate that you give credit to your parents help--a lot of creators pretend to do it all.

Andrew, please try to stay true to yourself, don’t change because of some hyper critical ppl. You are such a dynamo of creativity and your quirks make you unique. If ppl want to go watch a certain type of RU-vidr then that is what they should do. I watch every video and watched all your old content (came for that, stayed). I imagine how you talk to your camera is how you talk to your friends and that’s fine with me.

18:14 Wha??? I think you have great camera presence and are super relatable. There's something so sincere when a channel isn't overly produced and polished. Just be you, Andrew -- that's why we like you.

What the heck?! What is wrong with people? Sad, negative, envious people who don’t have the talent and abilities that you have. Please don’t take those comments to heart, you are an amazing creator and I look forward to your videos every week!!!!

I have never felt weird watching your videos. You are a real person working really hard to entertain people. I enjoy you and your videos. Thanks from a Midwest Mom!

As an eye rolling freak of nature myself, I feel eminently qualified to tell those anonymous keyboard warriors to take a hike! I assumed it was a bit of a process to produce these videos, but I now realize it's a lot more complicated and frustrating than I imagined, so my appreciation for your efforts has grown exponentially. You are so generous to share your life with us, especially since you could undoubtedly make better progress without having to film, script, and edit a project. To say nothing of weathering spiteful criticism on irrelevant and minor details from some ignoramous drooling Cheetos on their phone while they're holed up in their mom's basement. You do a fantastic job and the vast majority of us are awestruck by your talents in more areas than I can list and pea green with envy over your relationship with your parents. BTW, the angle of the shot where you were putting the basket on top of the wardrobe showed the door covering better than I've ever seen it. Love to Queenie.

Dang, Andrew. Haters hate. Trust your instinct and do your best for yourself. Your vision is beautiful and I admire your style. Also, “I thrifted this.” Score!!!

I loved this video. I guess I came here from the kitchen reno but I stayed because I recognize you are so talented and humble and real. I’m sorry people feel emboldened to be critical of someone on you tube. I hope us ‘regulars’ outnumber those mean people ❤ and I just want to say thanks for what you do and you are amazing!!!

Looking away from the camera just seems part of your "Andrewness" and honestly it makes your vlogging style authentic and part of your unique vision.

Thank you so much for giving us a peek into your daily life and sharing your video-making process. Your willingness to be open is truly inspiring. Your home reflects your unique style and personality, and I’m grateful that you've opened it up through your videos. Keep shining and creating the art that brings you joy!

Thank you for this outstanding video. I wish that those who leave negative comments would have chosen to just scroll by. You do such a great job with your home and your videos and I appreciate you so much. This is a wonderful video and I appreciated seeing some behind-the-scenes action. That your parents are doing so much work on your home says so much that’s wonderful about them and that in return says so much that’s wonderful about you.

I love that you got emotional when talking about your parents; gratitude is deeply felt.

I come to see you videos just to hang out for a few and see what your creative mind has been up to for the past week. It's easy to say "Ignore the negativity" but not always easy to do so. I reframe it as the people who send out unconstructive criticism have issues. You've been in cities where people yell into the abyss and poop on the sidewalk. Well, those people are allowed to make comments on You Tube as well. As long as you acknowledge them it will feed into their problem and they don't get better. Be kind enough to them to ignore it. I like when you talk to the camera and you eyes move back and forth. It looks like you are thinking and it's definitely charming. Don't let the lemmings drag you down to being average. You're aura is not beige!

Videos such as this one, give you such a human authenticity, an appeal that many RU-vidrs do not achieve. May I suggest that you strongly consider in the future to do more of these "this your life" vlogs as you are most likely to become a dynamic influencer to monetize them in many ways - possibly paying your bills with them. Definitely a positive to spend downtime with special person and Atlantic has much to offer. Do you suppose you will ever return to a handlebar mustaches? Very cool, in my opinion.

Almost everyone whose channel goes through growth through the tens of thousands of viewers suddenly gets that wave of unhelpful/hateful/trolling comments, and eventually, I think every creator learns to just filter in their own heads (or just skip reading) comments that don't work in a constructive way. Your videos have been a really big inspiration to me, especially in embracing my own style and fitting more thrifted pieces into my house, and I've been here since your channel was quite small, so ... don't sweat the people who don't get you!

Please your family and friends are helping you and that your dog is so cute. Improving a home while living in it and keeping a job is a challenge. Keep at it, the results are wonderful! Your esthetic choices are excellent.

As an artist who also happens to be a custom framer, As you said you're not looking to have your artwork for a lifetime so you don't need to worry about preservation and using "archival" materials! Unless you're framing an original of course!!!😉

I totally love behind the scenes it is such a fuller picture!!!!

Andrew I really enjoyed this video. I liked the format and content. Stop doubting yourself and ignore the negative comments. We watch you as you show us interesting projects and ideas and we like you! Keep up the good work and only look forward. Take care.

You did great, Andrew ! Others already said most of what I wanted to say and I agree: you don't make me feel uncomfortable at all! Be yourself, with your authentic facial expressions. You come across exactly as you are: a charming young man, a real down to earth person who just happened to be born talented, with a great eye for style and design. A true artist is never completely sure of themselves, or cocky ! You know who usually is? A Narcissist! And they don't create, only copy. Or blag their way through while controlling others through digs and little criticisms. That's not what cool people do! But many genuine Artists and Creatives over many centuries (who we now know and celebrate) were humble, sensitive souls that questioned themselves. Yet they were amazing! Just like you! The very fact that some comments make you question yourself shows how humble and pure hearted you are. Never change for anybody as in "acting a certain way in front of the camera". You actually come across professional and very likeable. Seems like some people couldn't fault your interior design skills which are formidable and tried to raise themselves up by putting you down. So sad! But it only means that you're on the up and up! And I'm sure we will be seeing your talent develop and blossom in front of our very eyes as time goes by. Your filming skills are excellent now, by the way! I appreciate how you show us end results properly and linger on great design "the After" so we can absorb it all. Have you been interviewed for a lifestyle magazine yet? You have interesting insights, not only interior design ideas. I think you're an excellent role model for a younger generation. My former ballet dancer son is also talented (in music, not design) and I'd do anything to help him in any way. So I can appreciate the love and bond you have with your parents. It's such a positive experience to watch your videos, seeing you all working as a team. I feel kindness and positivity through the screen haha Rooting for you, young man! Wishing you health, wealth and happiness, always. Your biggest British fan 😊

Love your channel! Love your content! Your content is much more creative than a lot of those “popular” youtube channels are and i always feel like we get a more REAL creativity! So keep on doing what you do!! And you definitely dont look weird on the screen. You have a sweet and sincere vibe. Dont let internet trolls get to you 🥰

I like seeing the behind the scenes of how the polished making/reveal videos get made, it shows the considerable effort it takes. Plus I think this is a great format for the inbetween as projects progress

I loved this video so much! I’ve made videos, currently on a break, I find it fascinating to see other folk’s behind the scenes. Also LOVED all the Queenie content! I have been following you for almost a year and love your energy and creativity. Negativity is always hard to tackle. Keep doing you!

I LOVE your style/aesthetic and I appreciate your ability to repurpose things so stylishly! I also enjoy doing the same, and it is fun to pick up ideas from you that I wouldn't have necessarily come up with on my own! Keep your ideas coming!!

Thanks for sharing this process with us Andrew. ❤ Re: criticism and self doubt: if you present yourself in an authentic way, instead of people pleasing and providing generic content, you're not going to be for everyone. But those of us who get you absolutely love what you do. Appreciate you putting your home, your creative process and your life out there. As someone who has recently lost their last parent I can really appreciate (and so glad you) the quality time you share with your mum and dad. It's lovely.

I am much older than you, Andrew, but seeing your parents working with you on your first house brought back wonderful memories of my parents doing the very same thing. What an awesome gift, and memories you'll cherish! I enjoy all of your videos!

Working a job, RU-vid and renovating is work!! Totally rewarding, but work, I empathize. You’re doing amazing and I absolutely love the warm industrial creator aesthetic you’ve created in your home!! ❤ A fellow Georgian P.S. Queenie is precious!!

Thank you for being you, Andrew! You are perfect just the way you are! I know you inspire me! I know, I am NOT the only one who finds joy in watching your videos. What you do is bring a little sunshine and happiness to my day. You, your family, and your sweet dog just make me smile! Thank you!!!

LOVE this video! Something you must know is that we all started watching these videos because of the DIY content, but then we grow fonder and fonder of you - as a person, not just a content creator - with every video, and Queenie is a true star! So....when you do these behind-the-scenes type of videos, it's very special because you're bringing us into your everyday life. We get to see a more casual, human side of you (with the funny edits and bloopers), like friends do with each other. Again, LOVE this. BTW, my favorite shots of your handsome face are when you are walking away from a store and you're holding the camera right in front of you. Love the swagger in those shots!

Thanks for the behind the scenes video. I just gotta say I love your parents. They are so awesome helping out and support you with your home projects. ❤

You are fortunate you to have generous and intelligent parents. Keep at it, you are a wonderful designer!

I'd feel honoured to be member of the REISSUED family. ❤ The "2 $ frame drawing" is gorgeous! Loved this video style. And btw. the bedroom is stunning!

Yeah haters, calm down and neg elsewhere! Andrew, you’re putting yourself out there and it gives the rest of us homeowners something to aspire to or get ideas from. I appreciate your contribution to the world. I am a proponent of recycle/repurpose/reuse and so I love to see you put this in action. Take feedback as needed. Currently, I am turning an old frame with broken glass into a white/dry erase board. I love the framed white board in your studio which inspired this project. Thanks for your vulnerability and hard work! 😊❤

I’m not sure what there is to “hate” about your videos! I’m in no way talented enough to do what you and your family do, but I love a good makeover process and enjoy watching! Thanks for opening up your home to everyone 😊

absolutely love these types of videos...the reveals are cool, but the behind the scenes/more of the ugly before the pretty are just more exciting b/c some of us are doing the same thing, and its very inspirational and motivating...thx for sharing!

I think the eye rolling and looking off camera is endearing. It makes you appear more human, and is one of the things I like about your videos. I prefer your style to a more polished video. You are more artistic and creative than most of the other creators that I follow. Keep doing what you do, and ignore the haters!

I love all of your content! I think today, you revealed the importance of taking time to recharge and prioritize family, friends, health and just... meandering. Doing the things you love, I agree, do become tasks or chores if you forget to pay attention to the other parts of your existence that you value. You are a true renaissance dude! Seeing Queenie and your/family's interaction gets me excited for the greyhound I'm adopting at the end of the month - Sal passed last July and it's been not the best balance to focus on work (which I generally love), without having a canine family member to care for and to share my life at home with. The footage of you and your dad sanding a door inspires me to do the same with my front door. I love your inspiration regarding resourcefulness.

You have NOTHING to apologize for or explain! Your talents and sense of style and design blow me away, and anyone who would criticize you for something as ridiculous as rolling your eyes too much is not worth the time of day. It is people like that who would never be brave enough nor do they have the talent or skills necessary to do what you do...don't let the geeks keep you down. Keep up the excellent work! PS: Can I rent your parents?

I only watch people who are real. I think that shy people look away a bit when they talk. I know that I do. Delete the critics immediately, and reread the comments from people who see you. You share you and your unique style. Bless you in all that you do. I love your choices.

Keep up the creative and ambitious videos. I watch all of them and find you to be a real and refreshing person. Love that your parents are helping you every step of the way. Happy birthday mom!

The emotion is from the appreciation and grateful feeling that you have for your parents. You are so creative keep going and let the haters hate.

I move my eyes a lot when I’m talking and it’s because I’m thinking about what I’m saying as I say it. It just happens. I don’t find you unsettling at all! Those people are just being nit picky. Love your videos, love you! Also I’m so jealous that you get to do all these projects with your parents, I think it’s just wonderful and lovely. Surely making many cherished memories together ❤

Hi Andrew! I feel like I haven't had the time to actually "sit" and watch a full video, but I'm happy to say I did that with this one of yours. You keep being YOU, don't worry about what others think or say. There's always "those people". We all love you just the way you are on here! Great fabric find at the restore! I love that! It's also so nice to see you parents helping you, that's great! Your house is looking so good! I LOVE the bedroom, lights on even, it's hard to get natural light lately here in GA. I wish that restore was close to where I'm at, it looks like there's tons of really nice things! Good to see you! Happy belated birthday to your Mom!❤

Don’t pay attention to those negative people. Your channel is awesome and I so enjoy your creativity and the relationship you have with your parents. You appear very real on camera. We never look at someone constantly when we are in conversation with someone in real life…..that would actually be weird. So you keep doing what you’re doing!!!!

Thanks for letting us in behind the scenes! I am a speech and debate coach. Your eyes are just fine! As long as when you do look at the camera you are sincere, it's all good! And you do look sincere-- So bravo! Love all your content, been following for a few years. The bedroom is smashing! A huge Reissued fan!

Your early morning zombie voice sounds great! 🤣🤣🤣 Don't worry, we all have them 😃

As the others said, don’t take the haters to heart. Some people are just ridiculous. Loved this video and Queenie. Her tail reminds me of a skunk tail!! Lol The dresser (?) at the end and picture were just great.

I love that your parents are working with you on your house .

Andrew- the haters can get bent. You are talented, entertaining, and fun. Watching you is relaxing because you're yourself. Don't change a damn thing. Hugs!

I appreciate and look forward to your videos. This one was unexpected and I loved it! Hope you do this type of vlog again.

Your parents are awesome! I love watching your progress ❤

Happy Belated Birthday Mom! You did good.

Great video Andrew!! Please don't doubt yourself or your sense of style, you're awesome!! You have a keen eye and such a way of combining the old and new that is just baffling. Stay true to yourself and don't worry about what others might say. At the end of the way it's your house and it's turning out really beautiful. Have a wonderful time doing what you love and enjoy the company of those who love you. Always looking forward to watching your next video.

I have recommended your channel to so many ppl because you’re so creative and inspiring! I also love the connection you have with your parents!! Your vids are full of great content and I always look forward to them!!

I loved this video. You have wonderful parents and Queenie is just the cutest. Trolls will always be around try your best to ignore them. I think we can all appreciate what hard work it is to put these video's out.

Thanks for the behind-the-scenes ride. Really enjoyed seeing all aspects of creating your videos. It's got to be so satisfying seeing the house progress and these videos will be great to look back on as a diary to the beautiful transformation. Of course, any video will have critics so take what is helpful and discard the rest. Queenie reminds me so much of a dog I had that was a border collie/cocker spaniel mix. She lived to be 18 (!) 😢♥

Queenie's "No hold!" = 🤣 I also really appreciated your frustration with the mower. Congrats on this and the reveal vid! 🎉

Wow, Andrew, your home is stunning. You truly have put the best amount of thought and intuition into each room. Thank you for sharing this BTS vlog-style. I have a much deeper respect for all the RU-vidrs I see because of you. It’s one thing to capture all the video content, but putting the pieces together for a single “bedroom” or “thrifting” video requires sooooo much editing and storytelling. You should be really proud of all the content you’ve put together. Yes, there’s always wishing that a project could have been better, but the fact that you actually make these amazing designs AND film them for others puts you in a whole league of your own. Truly so, so glad to find your channel.

You’re amazing! And honestly, if you’re staring at the camera it isn’t as natural. Everyone looks away sometimes when they’re talking so it feels more natural, like we’re in person. I never noticed, honestly.

Loved, loved, loved this video! I always loved how your creative mind works, but this gave us an insight on how you manifest it in your daily living. Also, this helps people to see all the hard work you put into the whole process. Sometimes people don’t see how much time, effort and vulnerability goes into making the videos for us. Please know that I appreciate them more than you can imagine! Coming home after a mundane workday, it is really refreshing to watch and learn from you! Keep it up! 🫶🏻

It’s official You’re Awesome! 👍🏻

A friend and I were only saying the other day that nobody calls their dogs King, Prince, Princess or Queenie any more! Your Queenie is lovely! Love your fabric roll storage and that ro9ll of fabric you picked up. I'm glad you made this video, you make it all look so easy but it's great to show how much work you put in. You are one of my favourite channels.

How fun to get to look behind the curtain.😊 I had never once noticed a lack of eye contact.😅

This is one of the most wholesome vlogs I’ve seen in a long time. Thanks for sharing! Would love to see more 🤍

You do you, ignore anyone who cant be nice. I never understand why they feel the need to be unplesant. Only reflects on them!! I'm really glad I've found your channel and enjoy the content and love your eclectic style. 😊x

Love what you’ve done with your home and have really enjoyed watching you and your parents coming together as a team ❤

I love the vibe of your channel. Please trust your gut and your artistic vision. The only thing I wish for is more content because it inspires me! Keep going!

Thanks for showing behind the camera. My tiny six videos took so much time to make and they are nothing compared to yours. I think people are under the impression it takes the length of the video to do. When I have been asked to make more content I always respond "For each one you see there was 5 you didn't." I got it immediately when you heard the mower. One of my videos is brought to you by a squeaky stair as I was filming under one and had no control who went up them. Looking forward to your next video!

I really enjoy watching your work in progress. Your dog queenie is so adorable. Thank you for another great watch❣❣

You are blessed with awesome parents and Queenie too. I always enjoy your videos!

There's a difference between constructive criticism and being mean and some people really need to learn the difference. And I wish if they were the latter, they would just say nothing, and move on, don't watch if you don't like. I personally love your videos and don't care how you address the camera, I think you're very relatable and don't make me feel at all uncomfortable. I enjoyed this video and look forward to the next 🤎

To thine own self be true. People like to complain,. Remember you can’t please everyone, so please yourself and those you love. You’re doing a great job, your videos are natural and real.

Andrew, you have always produced great, honest, authentic content which we enjoy so much. I too struggle with what people think and can't imagine putting myself out there for all the world to critique. Your vulnerability is your superpower, don't ever change. Keep on being you and love seeing your parents with you and MORE Qweenie! Love!

You rock, Andrew!

That leopard 🐆 print shirt is fire 🔥! Also, LOVE QUEENY!!!

I absolutely loved this video it's so organic and so much 🖤🖤Queenie!🖤🖤!! Nothing wrong with your expressive eyes, trolls are only jealous of your baby blues.

I'm here for the Queenie content. ;)

I really enjoy your channel and your filming style! Don’t change for people who don’t matter in your life!

Your channel is one of my favs bc you are so creative and unique. Love your vintage touches mixed in with your artistry.. Please ignore the negativity.. comments that lend a positive recommendation are great and I know can help in a lot of projects but the criticism about you eyes etc.. are shit and ridiculous. You are a creative and some people can have harmful intentions due to jealousy and just bad intentions. I always tell myself I can't control what others say and do but I can control the power I allow it to have over me.. Keep being your authentic self and we will all continue watching and supporting you... ❤❤❤

I wholly agree that by following your Passions, the sweat equity usually increases. That being said, the gratification levels also blossom. And, in my world, a little gratification goes a long way in nourishing a person's dreams....like emotional fertilizer! LOL It sounds like your Granny was a cool lady. Especially if that is an original Arne Jacobsen 'egg' chair and ottoman. Wowza. Happy Pride Andrew.

Andrew you have such an amazing talent, or talents I should say lol! I have thoroughly enjoyed catching up with your videos and can't wait to see more of your home renovation. I love your style of artwork that you make and feel inspired to have a go myself 😁. Very much looking forward to more videos in the future. So nice to see a genuinely sweet guy here on RU-vid. xx

Andrew, I think you are charming, talented, and adorable. Ignore the eye rolling comments. This is me 🙄 to the people making negative comments about you. I really enjoy your channel. Be you! You’re awesome.❤ PS: Loving seeing more of Queeny. 😍

Your channel is perfect the way it is.

This video felt like a dance in time and space. Thanks for sharing.

I love your aesthetic and you’ve got a great eye for reusing vintage items. Don’t worry, you are doing great 😊 and I’m happy I found your channel - thanks for sharing a bit of your life with us!

I like how your eyes dart around honestly... it's really cute!

Love love love also this calm and "sans fard" kind of video. Keep going! 💛

I think you're amazing. Just so you know. I have followed you from your start. I think you're genuine and your talented. I also think your kindness shows through your videos. I have thought about make videos and people negativity is one reason why I haven't done it. But I encourage you to do you and keep it up. Sincerely Joe

Ignore the haters and don't be so hard on yourself, I appreciate all the hard work you put into your renovations as well as the videos. Your attention to detail has really paid off and your home is turning out so beautiful. It must be so satisfying to see all your ideas come to life. Thank you also for sharing some Queenie, she's adorable, I love her energy!

Happy Belated Birthday to your mom! Don’t worry about haters. Sad that they are unhappy. Your videos are awesome and full of good energy. PS. Always test the paint for lead before you sand. 😀

Great video, it's fun to see the "behind". So happy I found your channel!

I love your videos. I look forward to them.

I love your videos and you’re a super likable guy. Who cares what the haters say…just keep doing what you are doing.

Great! This made you so much more relatable.

We love you Andrew. That's all. :)

Red orange is the new millennial green. I love it so much.

You are so not done. MORE please. Love this. I'm restoring a 1950 bungalow. Going well but your ideas are really great. Keep it up bud.

aww 🥰 i love that you have a great relationship with your parents ❤

I love your videos because you seem very real and relatable 😊

I just discovered your videos and I'm really enjoying them. You're sparking my creative side! I'm sorry that you're getting the negative comments. I know that it's practically impossible to ignore them. It seems like ALL the RU-vidrs occasionally vent about the negative comments, so know that you're in good company:) Give Queenie a hug for me--she's darling.
