We put the finishing touches on the new door. Jess takes it on herself to protect the new door we installed on our self-built off-grid home and make a personal statement.

We are Jim and Jessica, a husband and wife team who made the leap from city life to an off-grid homestead in Southern Arizona. We've started this lifestyle equipped only with two Permaculture Design Certificates and a whole lot of determination.
We’d like to share our journey of starting a sustainable homestead from scratch with all its ups, downs, and lessons learned. Watch us take on the challenge of modern homesteading, off-grid life, and turning this barren piece of land into a desert oasis.

We're loving the new door!❤️ What do you think about it?

@Ashton60578 Год назад

Love it. Will you put a protective coat on it to help with doggy scratching? I would hate to see it ruined because somebody wanted in.

@OHlookSHINYthing Год назад

I like the purple (and the other colors too); the feathers and other designs are very nice.

@virgoessence1233 Год назад

I’m in love !!!! Omg Jess IMAGINE…if you would paint some of the pallets and surrounding items like this

@paulehney4581 Год назад

Both the door and workshop came out great!

@hulkflattt7854 Год назад

Watch out for the windy days it will snatch that door from your grip in a snap! Maybe a bungee or spring to help Grandpa said back in the day Never hang a door swinging out CHEERS

@timelston4260 Год назад

Wow, Jessica, I didn't realize you were so knowledgeable and skilled in art. I guess I haven't been watching your channel long enough. I loved hearing you talk about different artists and showing their works while you talked about them. And the door looks fantastic. I'm impressed.

@Peachy08 Год назад

Go back to some of her older videos and look at the beautiful art work she has done. Especially the ones of animals.

@Kbuzmin99 Год назад

I love the colors and the happy, relaxed vibe of the door. It's like you've sprinkled all kinds of positive things into the design so that when you enter the house, you are showered all around by them. Kudos. It's beautiful.

@Peachy08 Год назад

The door turned out very nice! It definitely portrays your personality Jess! Beautiful!😍

@affordabledesertliving3487 Год назад

Absolutely lovely artistic design on the door Jess. Jim I really was taken with that Pallet storage area. Two main ingredients I like: Frugal and sturdy. Cheers!

@ourselfreliantlife Год назад

Lol! Thanks Don!

@nellylugo7414 Год назад

Jess you did a beautiful job, and organizing the tools was an excellent idea and a way to avoid accidents! Excellent.

@marymccowan6629 Год назад

So glad to see you working on the house and to see Crew walking around and not tied up. He seems to be chilled and not interested in running away. Uvie is cute and a stinker. Lol.

@marymccowan6629 Год назад

The inside of the door is beautiful the out side of the door is beautiful also put some brown and green in there for Jim. I wouldn't have covered both sides of the palates with osb I would have left one side open to see what is inside. You might bring up a shovel with a snake wrapped around it or a black widow read to pounce on you. Think?

@gailbenjamin5137 Год назад

The stakes are to high to let him wander, the neighbors have threatened to kill him.

@patriciagates9115 Год назад

It transformed before our eyes. I never could have imagined the result by the beginning. To have the ability to create a masterpiece in stages is an amazing genius to possess. Thanks for bringing me along for the journey, with the door finish and the shed. Both were magnificent transformations.

@sallys2423 Год назад

I've heard people say "I could have done that" regarding art, but THEY DIDN'T. Creativity has as many forms as there are people creating. I love love love the door!

@donnatrimble7439 Год назад

Wow!! what a beautiful door Jess. Amazing. Jim great work on organizing. Being organized brings peace of mind & doesn't distract from focusing on projects

@mariafrost172 Год назад

Jess that door looks really good, you really are a good artist, keep up the good work both of you, and Jim that organisation work you are doing will really benefit you both. ❤❤❤❤

@carlustownsend7588 Год назад

Nice art work Jess. The door is amazing.

@Melissa02891 Год назад

Love the way your door turned out Jess, all that work preparing it makes it another labor of love project that you will sit back and really enjoy someday. So many interesting personal touches just add to the uniqueness of your home. I've really enjoyed your channel and admire your ability to build such an interesting house, I never heard of this type of build before so it's been fascinating to see your differant layers of progress coming together. Very happy to see Jim making decisions on a more efficient workspace and the organization of all the different types of materials and tools that you've accumulated over your many projects, sometimes I find myself saying you're not just going to leave that there are you? Lol. Honestly though your commitment to living this self sustainable lifestyle and all your hard work is what keeps me watching, and cheering you on. ✌

@StoneKathryn Год назад

I like the sponge painting that Jess did on the front door. It is a pleasing design. The extra white appliques looked beautiful over the sponged on background! I hope you put some type of protective coat over all that beautiful artwork on the door. I hope you can find something that won't tinge it yellow like polyurethane does. I like the way you cleaned up the tools Jim! Nice job! Thanks for this Jim and Jess.

@kevinh.w.crabbe8748 Год назад

Hey Jim and Jess good day to you both we are watching you and love how your projects are going for that front door. Your lovely wife painted a beautiful scenery on your return. Love her work of art and everything like windows and now your door you put up brother and sister she is a beautiful artist

@KB-lj4vk Год назад

That door tells a beautiful story, both old and new.😊

@kurtcurtis2730 Год назад

Great sentiment. Thanks for sharing

@WildOrchardOasisFarm Год назад

I love what y'all are doing! I'm in NW Arizona and we're not off grid but doing what we can to be more self sufficient with solar power, chickens, greenhouses and an orchard. Been thinking about starting my own RU-vid channel but I'm not sure I want to deal with all these people that feel entitled to tell you what to do. 😳 It's just weird! 😂👩‍🌾🥰🙏

@arthurarthur6976 Год назад

Let Jess speak about her Art experience and Art process including the feeling that Jess entertains while she processes her Art experience Jess might become a professional Artest one day. That's right your painting of the door came out very nice, Maybe you should try your hand at oil paintings one day?

@jasonallen1532 Год назад

What a great video with important key points to live by. A place for everything and everything in its place, organization is also a form of art. Even the simplest tasks require multiple parts and procedures. The door is trippy and I'm convinced Jess is next generation hippy. Hope she coats her door art with some kind of exterior clear coat. Excited to see her get back up on top.

@coyotech55 Год назад

The door came out great! I often say to myself, being kind of messy and also having to find (build) places to put things: a place for everything, and everything in its place. Especially if the place is small and the things are plentiful. But it does make you feel good to clean up a mess and find a better way to store stuff, and create more order. That's also a kind of art, in a way.

@michaelmueller4946 Год назад

I really admire the artist in Jess! Good idea on organizing your hand tools.

@OHlookSHINYthing Год назад

I like how you used the pallets for tool storage. I could see a row of shelves or pegs on the backside for even more storage!

@pattigsbh4392 Год назад

Jim you are doing a great job supporting your beautiful creative wife😉 Jess it was fun watching how a bunch of colorful blotches turned out so collectively beautiful. I love the stenciled artwork and the little added touches. It brings a smile 😁 The old saying was engrained in me " a place for everything and everything in it's place" always challenges me but it sure makes life easier.

@PracticalContrarian Год назад

That door is wonderful. Having watched Jess put the time, effort and attention to detail into it that she has and then seeing where her mind went with the finished project reminded me of the old saying "Still waters run deep". A quiet, placid manner oftentimes conceals a passionate nature.

@Ashton60578 Год назад

The door is lovely Jess. And for the man who is "brown-nosing" (LOL), remember - A place for everything and everything in its place. Clutter is a detriment to your mental and physical health. I am slowly going through years of stuff that built up slowly. I am still amazed when I run across something I didn't remember having. Hopefully you will be able to keep things put away when not being used. It does make life so much easier to need something and know exactly where it is. Keep at it and your entire life will improve.

@judylee1860 Год назад

Jess’ observation is very true about the art in our minds being difficult to duplicate on the canvas. Trying is the enjoyment.

@mariehall9514 Год назад

That door would fit perfectly in the 1960’s! Love it!

@hermanharris5329 Год назад

Wow, very nice. I can’t imagine the thought process that goes on to come up with a finished product like that door. Nice to see the prior cover organized too😊

@shelleybelly66 Год назад

It's SO COOL to see your process Jess, with the application and layering of colors. They blend so well and the mandalas and feathers are TOTALLY you. It feels like the door is even more protective of your home now that you've layered it with intention and love. The little hand painted heart on the bottom

@shelleybelly66 Год назад

Also - you guys are adorable. As usual. 🥰

@arthurarthur6976 Год назад

Well you certainly appear to have always enjoyed your Art projects and your Art projects always seem to look amazing, and so it's a safe assumption that whatever you do in the way of Art including today on your door will turn out unique and special.

@canuckyank82 Год назад

So... I really like the idea of painted sunflowers or desert plants in bright colors on the pallet boards for the tool rack. Beautiful door. Thanks for the video.

@kurtcurtis2730 Год назад

Love sunflowers!

@carringtonherrington4025 Год назад

So good to see old crew... He is such a sweet old soul.. reminds me of my old Sam ..he gained his wings last April. I miss him dearly. Crew reminds me of him so much. Beautiful door Jess great job!!

@rbhhaner6151 Год назад

That door is stunning. I think JESS found her a new money making hobby… Beautiful job . It will pull the metal shingles info focus as well. Nice job Jess. 5/5 stars. Sel a few things.

@MelissaMalzahn Год назад

Oh my the door is such a beautiful piece of art. It's stunning, it makes me happy looking at it. I'm bad too trying to get my stuff organized better too.

@doricohen5014 Год назад

Lovely entrance to No doubt a fascinating interior in the future ! That’s what I feel when I see your artistic signature on your door ! Well done I say!

@racebanning6390 Год назад

AS A PINSTRIPER AND UNDERSTANDING COLOR A BIT TOO, I WAS INTERESTED IN THE BASE YOU PUT DOWN, AND HOW IT ACCENTED THE FINISH BACKGROUND... HOW AWESOME YUR VISION IS JESS!!! CAME OUT SO BEAUTIFUL!!. THE COLORFUL BRIGHTS AND PASTELS FOR FINAL ACCENT ARE JUST FANTASTIC... WELL DONE, SUCCESS. BE BLESSED YA ALL!

@dannettebouchee9887 Год назад

I took art in all 4 years in high school and one year in College and I love how you painted the door. All the colors make that door stand out the focal point of the dome. Very nice work

@DesertNails Год назад

Is it a galaxy? Oh is it a garden bush with many pink blooms on it? Oh plus stencils. It's beautiful and magical Jess!

@mynameis_d5844 Год назад

Oooooh I’ve been waiting with such antici…..PATION Those colors are perfect! It evokes the desert blooming in spring

@lynnegilbert8142 Год назад

Love the door! It definitely brings out Jess’s Boho/Hippie style. Love all the colors and stencils. Don’t forget to put a protective coating over ur door. It’s a work of art!

@gavinrayne7922 Год назад

Have you considered rammed earth for the floors? It seems like it would go well with your theme and you both have all the experience necessary to do it.

@FoodForestPermaculture Год назад

Lovely door ! . Peace and love fellow earthlings

@arizonaunplugged8885 Год назад

Wow, beautiful

@JynxieTheMermaid Год назад

Great work guys! My husband is gonna love your tool storage design. I totally am with you on the door being unique as well. Some of my favorite colors there Jess! My husband and I are going to do a Wizard of Oz theme on our property once we move to it out there. I'm just loving your personalization there so much ❤

@sueborden4815 Год назад

Beautiful job on the door, Jess!! Good job on the organization, Jim!! Everything will come in time. Love you guys! 💗

@beautifulfaith9367 Год назад

You two always make me smile 💜 and Jess your door is absolutely gorgeous 💥 it makes me feel good to see all the blending of colors. Kinda reminds me of Boho materials. And your hunky bear is building up his points for future reference! A good idea on getting the tools standing. Y’all take care and can’t wait to see what you do next!!!! Shirl K - Texas 🐾🐾😎

@btchpants Год назад

Crew is such a sweet, old boy 😊

@charlenehuff19 Год назад

I really like the door. It really is a work of art!! Seeing that door makes me smiles!! Wow!!

@linacabrera3172 Год назад

Hello, Jess , Jim is very proud of you and full of love. May God continue blessing you all. 😍 😍 😍 😍

@creinicke1000 Год назад

Loved seeing the stencils.. inspiring... I can imagine several projects.

@holliannesmith1877 Год назад

The door is a work of art! Magnificent! Please put a layer or two of CLEAR COAT on it to protect your hard work from the hard rains you get that sometimes rain sideways. Also, excellent job on your tool organization. A clear work area offers a clear head.

@kirstenb7105 Год назад

I really love the door colors and artistic touches. It feels warm and welcoming.

@janingram1303 Год назад

Love the door! I wasn't sure I would at first, but the colorful highlights on the white stencils were a wonderful finishing touch!Re: Jim's organization or lack thereof, I am totally with you, Jessica. Sam is pretty disorganized and I put up with it for awhile. But it gets to me and eventually disturbs my peace of mind. Sam often doesn't even notice it. Since I'm the one it affects, I often put things away and make things look acceptable to me again.

@wonderbubbles4092 Год назад

The door is an accurate metaphor for you videos and your homestead. Creative, unconventional and welcoming. Also informative, entertaining and helpful. Thanks for all you do.

@sarahloy830 Год назад

Jess, you are a truly gifted artist. I love the door!

@lauralowery9303 Год назад

Great job on your new door! I love it!

@MyKittyCats4U2C Год назад

The door is very beautiful, and the work area looks great.

@beejohnson2318 Год назад

I really enjoyed Jessica doing art and talking about everything. You're very intuitive and self-aware. Great job both of you!!

@kaydog2008 Год назад

Here's a ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ idea for when funds permit in the future. Build a shop for your wood working table all the power and hand tools on the back of the solar panels with a floor built on pallets and power supply/lights. This would open up your car ports greatly for projects and visitors. And give you a nice dry place to work no matter what mother nature brings.😎👍👍Plus use another one of those salvage doors.

@hubertwebb9869 Год назад

Hey Jim you should make a curved ladder from plywood and two by fours to use while working on the dome. Put a single metal stake in the center top of the dome to pivot on and wheels on the bottom so it can move easily to where you need it around the dome.❤❤❤❤

@offgridrooster Год назад

Love the artwork on the door! Shows the inner you! ☮️🙏🙏

@TheGazmondo Год назад

Strange, but the moment you started adding the white dots I could feel the whole thing change, it all came together, BRILLIANT !!

@barbclements9006 Год назад

The door is Beautiful Jess. ❤❤ Great job getting your tools organized Jim. Loved watching the dogs checking on Jess. God Bless

@michaelmesser8402 Год назад

I've been waiting for the end result I know it's going to be magnificent

@nickiprest2176 Год назад

I love the door. It's like a spring garden giving us beauty after a grey winter.

@michiganjfrog5714 Год назад

The door is very pretty, I like the color combination.

@mr.waynes7555 Год назад

i do like the addition of the dots, something about them, also the highlighting on the emblems👍👍👍👍👍

@paulawebb8569 Год назад

I love the door!!! I have to admit I thought hmmm pink? But wow I wouldn’t change a thing!!!! You’re so talented!

@janreynolds2476 Год назад

Love the door. Be sure to put some kind of sealant on it to make sure it stays beautiful. Love you guys. 🥰

@alesiawallin3860 Год назад

I love the door Jess! Good job on cleaning up your tools Jim. The real struggle will be keeping it cleaned up.

@ourselfreliantlife Год назад

Definitely!😁

@timelston4260 Год назад

Also, good job with the organizing, Jim, and how you talked about it.

@deborahratcliff8179 Год назад

As long as it makes you happy ,it's good. As a person who likes doing crafts. You learn that you have to please yourself first. Your home is a very personal expression of the 2 of you. And is beautiful. Thanks for sharing a wonderful repurpopsing of an object most would throw away. It's uniquely you. Beautiful.

@ME-tj6gh Год назад

I must admit to some skepticism at the start, but as I watched (and heard) you work through the process I became a great fan of your work. Your vibrancy, depth, and artistic nature came through loud and clear. As always, thank you for sharing! Mike

@sandramckenzie653 7 месяцев назад

Great job on cleaning up you tool shed. Organized workspace is always much nicer even if it isn’t as pretty as your wife’s door it makes me happy to see your workshop organized and glad you are feeling good about it too. Don’t make promises you aren’t going to keep. 😮
