I like how you're breaking things up, showing the office build, reno work and some gardening. 👍 Cristina, your splice on that plant looks fascinating. Sure do hope it takes and you get some good roots. I'll be waiting to see and have an idea to try it myself. Take care and see you next time. 🥰🌿♥️🌿🤗

Botanical name escapes me. Can you perhaps describe exactly what you did to the stem, Please. Happy days, ta ta for now! Cape Town . Ps, we've been scoffing," Royalty " digestives since yesterday and I've checked out simple recipes to make my own adding oats, so actually, Hobnobs. 🌼💙

Awesome improvements all around! It is amazing to see how each stage fits in on the overall plan. Btw is that room going to be a dark room? It looked like you could get enough natural light through the ceiling top side close to the door opening by adding small windows on top instead of closing it. Keep on going strong we will continue to accompany you from afar.

@The-Quinta 2 месяца назад

Thank you! Yes it’s going to be dark but we are putting a window in. 👍🏻 thanks for watching! Very much appreciated 😎👍🏻

@The-Quinta 2 месяца назад

Yeah ok thanks 👍🏼 plaster boarding is so much quicker and gives a visual result fast. I think the chime is on the rooster. Fortunately no one visits 😂 days are passing fast, enjoy the rest of your week ❤️

@LorrieMello 2 месяца назад

Thanks for another video you guys 😊 Cristina, while you were propagating that flowering bush did I see a table to your left made from an old time sewing machine? I’m curious because I have my mother-in-laws old sewing machine with a foot petal that I want to covert into a side table preferably with a marble top. If it was, did you covert it? The house renovation is looking amazing as well as the office. Did you two go up and down that ladder 4 times, or 5? I lost count 😂❤ have a great week.

@The-Quinta 2 месяца назад

Hi Lorrie, Yes, that was my mum’s sewing machine 🤩 I painted it, it was brown before. We had that marble top from our kitchen here, it was just the right size! I love it! Thank you for watching 😊

@The-Quinta 2 месяца назад

@alexday5892 2 месяца назад

@@The-Quinta I remember applying a double skin to our garage ceiling with my dad years back. It was meticulous in having to mark out where the joists were and also where we had screwed the first layer into the joists. This was to avoid hitting our first set of screws with the second layer screws. Not rocket science but quite fun. The sort of thing you would be totally across. Just love your relaxed commentary.
