 We just turned this craft room into this craft room and we'll show you how we did it right now. What is up? A welcome back. Do you like to do a build or make it? So do we and we have a new video each week. This week we're going big. Kim's a little ambitious. Well I wouldn't say ambitious it's January and you know what the great thing about January is I have a couple of organizational projects that I want to do. So we did this wall what I think in February of last year which I love. I love this wall and it's great. Look at how much stuff is stores on it. We could store on it but it's not everything and the rest of this room is a wreck. It's okay. I mean it's okay but I can do better. So I have some new storage ideas, organization ideas that I want to implement for what Garrett calls the new season. The new season. New season and new studio. We started our first video we ever put up was January 13th. This will be this January will be three years right? Three years. So I am ready to do and every time basically at the beginning of each year we do something new and different. So I want to do organization for this year and I want to redo that side of the room and the floors and it's a lot of work and Garrett is it super stoked on it? I am not. But I can't wait to show you what we do. We have some new ideas that I think that you can implement and we'll just kind of they're right now they're still ideas so we'll just see you can walk through this little transformation with me and we'll see if we can bring them to fruition. Oh it'll happen it might just be painful. Yeah my knees, my back. Yeah that's what I was thinking. Not a spring chicken Kim. Yes you are. Yes you are. Step one. A demolition. That was my demolition move. Yeah I see it. We're gonna rip everything out. We have a shiplap on that wall. If you guys remember the video over here cheap DIY shiplap. We're gonna pull that down pull the trim off, pull the carpet out. The thing is we're in a pretty small room up here. This is the room over the garage so I can't take everything out of this room. We don't have that luxury. We have some pretty big items like this table here. It is on casters and I can roll it but I can't remove it because we're just up a flight of stairs so we are going to have to shove everything to one side of the room. Demo and then push it all back. Demo push it over again and start laying the floors. So you can a lot of moving. Yeah we did this once before in a previous house. We laid some floor before we ever had a YouTube channel and that's what we had to do. We pushed everything to one side. Yeah we started the floor pushed it back and it worked out great. It worked out fine. Yep since we're pulling up the carpet and we'll be laying down that laminate we can do some break dancing. Yeah we'll look forward to that Garrett. Spring chicken. Everybody will. Change of plans. We're gonna leave the trim on and see how it does. Why do you want to work then we have to. Right so when we pulled up part of the carpet here we could see that the trim is going to be close to the right amount of distance from the subfloor so when I put the laminate flooring under the trim so we're gonna put a piece of quarter round to hide that so we don't think we'll need to remove the trim. Next step we're gonna go ahead and add the wallpaper before we finish pulling up this carpet. Peel and stick. Yes today's wallpaper I mean you can go super professional but I did this in my office upstairs and it looked great so we're gonna use the same peel and stick paper for this wall here. So a couple of tips about this wallpaper so this one this is called I hope you can see that this brand is new wallpaper peel and stick from wall pops this comes from Home Depot. The trick of with getting this wallpaper is you always want to use the same lot number so ours happens to be GS32 and we made sure we have enough wallpaper to cover this whole wall so these are 18 inches no 18 feet long 18 feet 20 and a half inches wide. Yes so the instructions say to draw a straight line 20 inches from the flat wall in the corner which I'm about to do and then make sure that line is level and then start your first piece we're gonna start from work our way from top to bottom after we draw a straight line we're gonna peel back the paper backing on this sticky wallpaper and you're gonna peel that down about 12 inches and then apply that first 12 inches to the wall and then you'll just peel the paper backing use your smoother to smooth over it as you apply your first full strip. So each of these has a pattern repeat you've got to find the pattern repeat they don't all start in the same place so as I pull out the first couple here I'm looking for my pattern repeat and I can see this one starts right here so here you can see there's probably four or five inches at the top of this one before the pattern starts again so as you apply your first strip you'll need to pay attention and determine where your pattern repeat is. It looks so real you might get a splinter. Oh you just got a splinter I'm telling you. In true fashion of just-in-time DIY we're ready to do the floor so we're gonna go to the home improvement store and pick out the flooring. We have a general idea of what we're looking for. I know exactly what I'm gonna get I just want options I'm gonna look around and see if there's something I want better he is giving me a hard time because I want to look around but I already have it picked out I know they have the quantity we need we just have to go get it while in there in case something else like with something's on clearance and it's perfect and we save some money. Okay I get it yes I agree then saving money he won me over. Alright ready for day two a phase two the wool is done we got back last night late last night with the flooring. See I told you they had it and stopped. This isn't the stuff we went for just say no. It is it's just a different color variation I decided that this was more had a little more browns and grays in it so I could decorate it either way over time so that's what we've got. It's supposed to be a floating floor it says minor sub flooring imperfections will be covered up so we're not even gonna lay any yeah we're not even gonna lay any underlayment yes we're just gonna lay this right down so first things first we gotta remove all the carpet we're gonna cut it in strips roll it up tape it up throw it out the window. We have that is like the best luxury is that we can throw it right out these windows into the alleyway behind our house so I mean we don't even have to lug it down the stairs so this is like it I'm telling you this is an easy project. Oh that's that's what makes it an easy project yeah. I've been doing a lot of convincing over the last couple of days. Yes she was just talking to all of the kids trying to convince them about how easy this is. We have a bunch of them here to help us today. You'll see him you'll see him in the fast-forward none of them want to be unfilmed. All right let's start with this carpet. Let's do it. We're just going to stagger it. This first row I'm gonna leave a whole plank the next row I'm gonna cut six inches off and put 12 inches down and then the next row I'm gonna start with six inches so that it's staggered so that the seams don't line up. Give it a little whack with the mount. Yeah these are like I said this is just a floating floor so you don't have to put anything underneath and they just lock into each other. Well we gotta do it the right way. We just lock these in and you can't even see it. Tap it down with a rubber mallet. We're good to go. All right this is where my knees take the toe. Home improvement store for some quarter round and some two by fours to make our table which we'll do in the morning. We built the table behind us but we found a really good deal so we're doing this instead of building. And they're together they're looking beautiful way better than the DIY ones we were going to do. After pricing the wood these actually came out to be about the same price minus half of the cutting in the labor. We just screwed together. And I think that's simply because of the time of year or the economic conditions that we're in right now with COVID and there is a lumber shortage and so prices are extremely high. So we were going to build our tables with two by fours and plywood but by the time you add a couple of shelves and two plywood tops you know a top and a shelf it ends up being the same price as these really nice tables that we ended up picking up. Knees have steel legs and a thick top. Yeah so you can get these on Amazon. We'll put a link to them down below and we'll show you some close-ups. But our next step is to it's that we're on the home stretch here just thinking now we're finally getting to the home stretch. We're going to install some metal pegboard shelving. Is it heavy? Oh no it's not that heavy. Oh man it's a little bit heavy. It's sturdy. It's metal so you can get you get the gist of it. But you know we love our pegboard that we were standing in front of on the opposite wall it's actually over there and found that we really can't live without it. So this is a new version of pegboard that we could purchase and not have to build again. That was a big project. It's beautiful but it was a big project. New floor, new wall, new pegboard, new table, new year, new season. We're really excited so let us show you how we install this pegboard and we'll be close to wrapping this project up. Since we can't hit the studs we're gonna use these drywall anchors so we have to mark the holes and drill for each one. Much finished. Almost finished. Well we don't have yet and you can see it's a big open space is our logo. We did decide to keep our logo that we've had and we're gonna do some merchandise with some of the other logos some fun stuff. But we will put our existing logo right here behind us to add some color and give it a little more pop. Yeah but I can't tell you how excited and happy I am with this new background. It just you it's so much more space for us. I love these two tables back here. We can now keep our cricket out, the pocket saws out, the glow forages out, everything is right here at our fingertips and I love all of this pegboard. I think the pegboard we made on the other wall was just a big just made us spoiled because and everything was like literally right behind us. So now we have that same thing. We have all of our cricket tools, our markers. Well my vinyl, most of my vinyl is still over here. This is for some aesthetics here. Hot glue guns, all of our paints. There's just so much right here at our fingertips and then these tables we didn't get the ones with the drawers. We really debated but I didn't feel like I had a lot of flat stuff. I have bigger stuff so we ended up adding some carts under here and now we can roll those around. I am super super excited about it. Almost everything is on wheels also. Yes. Except the tables. Everything else is on wheels so we can configure most everything. Right so if we decide we want to flip it around we can flip it around. We might be back over there next week. We don't know. No we won't. I'm excited to do. We have not had the opportunity yet to do a new project with this setup so I look forward to being able to reach back and grab my scissors and have everything right here at my fingertips. And this was pretty easy. I mean it was fairly, I think the wallpaper was probably the hardest. But the wallpaper was pretty easy. Yeah because all you had to do was stick it on and it looks great. I mean honestly this adhesive wallpaper is great stuff so it's way better than having to paste it yourself. Oh yeah way better. The floor, that was pretty easy. Time consuming. All of these things took a little time but we were able to do this in an afternoon. We did the wall in an afternoon. We did the floor in a day. I guess you came back and added the little quarter round molding around the baseboards later. Took me like 30 minutes. Yeah that didn't take very long either. We still have some things left we wanted to do that we haven't finished yet so now that we finished this side of the room we can keep filming where the windows are here. I think you'll show in some pictures. I want to put some drapes up up here. Some sort of dust catcher. Some kind of dust. Yeah some sort of Roman shades is what I really want to put up there. And paint that wall. I wanted to be a really light gray. It's pretty washed out in the video so you probably can't see the gray in the wallpaper. And then I want to put this wallpaper on that wall over there. I didn't get an opportunity to do that because I have to take down all of the pegboard over there and that's going to be quite a job. So there's a few extra things to do but for now our new set is ready to go. So I am about out of time and hungry. So we're gonna head out and grab a bite to eat and we will see you next week where we'll do it, build it, make it again. And I got nothing to balance. Like everything was super heavy. I can't balance a table. No. Piece of flooring. Nah. Alright. Go and get some meat.
