OMG! Creating this Ikea hack storage unit for Ziya's playroom makeover was a LOT! Countless hours of shopping, designing, building, painting, sanding...Did I say SANDING!? But we finally got it done and I'm pretty impressed, if I do say so myself! If you needed a looong video to watch while you're getting ready for the Thanksgiving holiday--you're welcome!

Zoe is probably the smartest, efficient, reliable, creative, down the earth assistant I’ve come across in the last 30+ years. She’s truly an invaluable asset to your brand and family. Truly love her and happy she helps and add greatly to your vision. It’s the primer I use. Also if you paint and do diy I remember when that primer 3 years ago used to be $39. COVID really changed things. Also if you add your paint color and have them tint the primer it actually will save extra steps and more paint to actually paint with your color. ETA: you guys did a great job and love the paint color. Next video let us know what paint color you used for the project. I love the pink.

@westcoastcali703 6 месяцев назад

re: Zoey....AGREED 💯💯💯💯

@ryanamari2233 6 месяцев назад

I agree with everything you said . As someone who just 3yrs ago was working at Home Depot in the paint department I can remember the primer being that price and customers asking us to tint their primer, the problem with that was you couldn’t tint it as an exact match and you’d have to do a fraction of the tints because the can would overflow . Thankfully she can do it for a light color if they dispensed only the red colorant

@ryanamari2233 6 месяцев назад

@naylaleifson9022 6 месяцев назад

i completley agree

@jenniesmythe8188 6 месяцев назад

More like ppl keep redoing ikea furniture and it’s only thing that works. So the business priced it up. Less Covid related more business profit related.

@SheWritesHerJourney_ 6 месяцев назад

The way you and Zoe collectively collaborate together as a team, talking about different suggestions but also hearing how you came to different solutions is so amazing to see. Zoe has been such an inspirational addition to the team. Beautiful work.

@seadragonpirate8195 6 месяцев назад

I hope Ziya gets to truly appreciate this when she's older and see how much work her mom put in for her to have her dream playroom :)

@zipporaj1 6 месяцев назад

Zoe is certainly a huge "asset to your business" ❤ (lolll her resume didn't lie 😂) I love to watch the relationship that you two have; respectful, both ways and comfortable enough for her to provide input that is actually considered and used. Kudos! Your Christmas bonus about to be lit, Zoe! 😅

@raeahthewriter8082 6 месяцев назад

I love how you could've just hired someone to do this project for you but instead you chose to do it yourself. That is so cool

@vivicahelgren1234 6 месяцев назад

Hey Raven! My dad is a contractor so I grew up watching him do this stuff your doing now, so I thought I’d throw you a few helping points invest in a nail gun they are so handy and takes one hand to use and the nail holes are smaller so you don’t see them at all in the end! Paint sprayer was a great idea! You could also put a cute picture frame around the thermostat to make it a cute accessory to the shell and hide the edges, for the next time with a thermostat best truck I know is to push the ikea unit up against the thermostat and have a peice of tape doubled up on the thermostat and when you pull the unit away from the wall it’s marked or you could use a pencils to loosely trace around it from the indent of the thermostat

@LunaYvecooking 6 месяцев назад

Kudos to Zoe! She can do it all! Working with power tools is not for everyone, she is definitely a great asset to your team.

@jessamante 6 месяцев назад

@lisa_and_christian 6 месяцев назад

The fact the shelf alignment for one row is more narrow actually makes the unit feel more custom. When everything is exactly the same height and so uniform, it doesnt feel as 'bespoke'. Overall, this was an amazing project! I'm tired just watching YOU work! 👏👏👏👏❣❣❣❣❣

@f0reverfades 6 месяцев назад

I never thought I'd see the day where I'd watch an hour + RU-vid video in its entirety without skips but Raven, you got me!!! I was hooked, between the clips and the narrations. Great job, with the cabinets and with keeping the video interesting.

@clester64 6 месяцев назад

Raven, I so feel your pain with this IKEA hack. I'm in the process now of painting the Pax system for my office. The sanding and multiple coats of primer and paint nearly killed me. I mess up the first time on the doors and didn't sand and the paint just peeled right off. Second mistake I made was not to build a platform to put the cabinets on so that they would be at the height of my base boards. For your next project do get a miter saw and a nail gun. I'm about to purchase a nail gun. I finally finished the painting, hallelujah 😊. Now I can start to put everything up in the room. You all did a great job and Zoey is an excellent assistant.
