I've been busy editing an EPIC video (9 hours of editing so far) that I hope you all will love. I'm also feeling a bit guilty I didn't get it done in time to publish this weekend, but hopefully Tuesday or Wednesday! I just need the lighting and weather to cooperate to film end shots and then you get to see :)
When I published this video, the NUMBER ONE QUESTION was, ‘what does it look like on the other side of the wall/the hallway?!’ https://youtu.be/eqGj4hLYCII Well, you can find out in my newest video published to my channel Friday! There’s a shot of me walking down the hallway (albeit at night) near the middle of the video…did you see it?
Only the OGs will recognize my front porch looking like this! You'll never guess how good it looks now: https://youtu.be/4SGSId5uWLs?si=VtKRI... WATCH MY LATEST MAKEOVER, the farmhouse front porch!
I'm working on an epic video right now! Usually I create a 10 minute video out of about 2 hours of footage...this video I'm working with 5 HOURS of footage and who knows how long it will be when I'm done editing everything to voiceover. It's the biggest project I did in 2023, can't wait for ya'll to see it!
I'm planning to publish a video this weekend I'm super nervous because it's unlike anything I've shared before. I'm going to be sharing the 3 ways I make money on YouTube; I'm hoping it will be a resource for those looking to monetize their YouTube channel as I have. I'll also be sharing some details on my YouTube income and that's the part that makes me nervous... Will you be watching?! How much would you guess I make per month on just YouTube income streams? You'll have to watch the video to see if you're right...
Who's ready to see the firepit & raised concrete garden area I created in my backyard!? I built huge benches out of simple 2x4s that look high end. I recoated the planter 5 TIMES to get it right. I worked so hard on this project and I'm so proud of how it turned out. Watch here: https://youtu.be/kVM7MMnUsDY?si=RICPM...
Why haven’t I published a video in two months!? Well… if you don’t know, the last couple years I have been working my butt off renovating a lakehouse almost entirely by myself. At the end of November when I finished the hollow core door makeover, I was finally done! A wave of fatigue and burnout washed over me…and I was not prepared for it. I didn’t feel burnt out until the holidays approached, I slowed down, and I realized I seriously needed a break. Nobody can work all the time and these 12 minute videos do not adequately depict the countless hours of tedious, sometimes strenuous labor I’ve taken on to renovate the lakehouse. It’s super hard to stop publishing as a content creator; it feels like the more hours you work the more you gain traction, following, money, etc. It’s addicting. I also feel like I’m letting my core audience who enjoys watching every one of my videos down. I hope I haven’t let you down and that you are anxious and ready to see the whole lakehouse remodel revealed in one video! It’s edited to be pretty short so I’ve added a special q&a session at the end. The video drops THIS SUNDAY! Now - what questions do you have you want me to answer in the q&a? As always - THANK YOU for watching ❤️
