Now I am even more impressed with Andrea's achievements knowing that as well as being a mother, wife and all round skilled person she is navigating all this with a medical condition and she still has a sunny disposition. Andrea and Dean are a great team, the playroom is stunning.

Everyone thinks Andrea *needs* a workroom (which I wholly agree with) but honestly, I think it's DEAN that needs it. Carrying that saw just might do him in.😆

Still don’t know why they don’t just build or buy a rolly table for that monster saw!!

@Stephen Caroline great idea!
The kids must appreciate their Mummy DIY for them. They’re so fortunate!! 😃
Only in the modern era can you get paid to make your own house look great. Excellent talent. Thanks for inspiring people.
You guys can see on their reactions that they didn't expect that their home can still be transformed to a more aesthetic place to live in. I can imagine how the kids can enjoy their new play room too. Great job for a successful project! 🙌✨
Andrea is INCREDIBLE!! I hope your kids are learning from mom! What an incredible skill to pass on from generation to generation!
Wow! That ladder gave you all kinds of struggles! The room is beautiful! I also have an auto-immune disorder. Hang in there, it’s a bit of a roller coaster. With a good doc, you will figure out what works for you. Also, don’t be hesitant to be your own health care advocate! It is possible to have years of little or no issues. At least that’s been my journey of about 13 years. Keeping physically fit will go a long way. I’m sharing what’s worked in my journey. Yours of course might be different. All the best and thanks for sharing❤
Dang, you need your own show. It looks so rich, well thought out and organized. Fantastic color combos too.
It's a very nice playroom. Near the window bench? Perfect!!
Andrea you are as awesome as xoMcanna! You are so beautiful and smart!! How do you do it all? a mom, wife, woodworker, and builder and you do it all with sweet smile. You inspire me, an old lady of 71 to do projects for my house. I love all that you do thanks for sharing!

More so! She does so much work all by herself and manages a family, too!
Fantastic !!! Andrea for President !!! Girl's RULE thumbs-up
My knees hurt watching you saw and chop and cut on the ground. If I were close, I would bring over a table for you and the saw! Beautiful work.
Adorable finish. Have uc, 37 yrs now...flares up/subsides/on-off meds. Found diet/minimize stress&tension and being active all help control. Is what it is...not diabetes, thank God. Best of luck to you.
That is so pretty! You're kids are really blessed to have such a talented Mom to create such a beautiful space for them to play in.....Wow!
Putting candle wax, soap from a bar of soap or just paste wax on the end of a screw helps it go in so much easier.
Great job! I'll definitely rebuild the ladder for my library! It is wonderful when children have a large space to develop. It's also great for the parents when the toys find their place and it's easier to keep things tidy.
The design is gorgeous, and overall, it's such an amazing playroom!! I love how much space there is to spread out across the room and enjoy and contain all their hobbies and inspirations. ♥ Gotta bookmark this one for future inspiration. Thanks Andrea & Dean! (P.s. - I got a hearty laugh at 10:02! Haha, is it bad if I *don't* want you to make a saw table? Sorry, Dean!)
I started the Autoimmune Protocol and was able to transition to part AP, part Paleo. It’s only hard until it’s habit. The diet does great things for health! Been doing it almost 11 years. I love your channel!
Very impressed with the redesign of the "play room". Your children are adorable (no surprise!). They will enjoy that room especially because their parents care! Lovely, lovely family!
Andrea and Dean- You two put out some fantastic content. Very inspiring in both the DIY department and in your kindness to each other. Keep up the good work!
I almost died whan he said "What are you looking at".
It is encouraging to see all that you do. I also have multiple autoimmune diseases and love design and construction.
“What are you looking at?” Best line in the whole video! 😂😂😂
Very good design and I love the color choice. Know the children are in love with this huge space. Happy birthday to your 10 year old. Trampoline park was amazing. Andrea hope your doctor has a better diagnosis and treatment for your illness. Take care and enjoy your weekend.
This is my dream library/craft room/reading nook. I absolutely love this! You need merch that says "I need the saw"
Andrea is amazing. Idk how she works with all of Dean’s comments 🤯
Glad you're going to a functional medical doctor. Mine saved my life. My mother had Crohn's so I sympathize with that challenge. Hope you feel better.
Love the results of the playroom! That color green is so calming. The fact that you left that huge space on the floor for play instead of filling it up with unnecessary furniture especially given the window bench. All parts of the build were great. If you are not headed to a big box store at least 10 times for each room, is it really a DIY?
Anytime I'm working on a project and I don't have to go to Lowes more than 2x's in one day, it's a victory. I've had 5 visit Lowes days. Those are the worse. The project came out incredible. The room is fun, yet sophisticated, so it should age up well with your kids. Instead of building a miter saw stand, have you considered one of the rolling portable stands that are made by several companies? No matter what, miter saws are heavy and a pain to lug around, but when I'm on a job site, I can wheel the miter saw around by myself. Also, in the folded position, they save space in your garage. Cheers!
That playroom is enviable!!
Andrea! Now I love/ respect you even more!! Speedy recovery!
👏👏 Girlfriend! I've worked in construction, drywall, plumbing, roofing, landscaping...like...all of these different things...and yet I'm jealous that you are just so dang good at this. Somewhere down the line I forgot that I didn't have to be good at all of the things, but I still worked too hard to be that "women can do just as much as men" example. And now I hardly do any of it anymore 😂😭 you do amazing things ❤
You need to build a little cart for your saw so it can be rolled out of the garage. Should be a quick little project that can save Deans back!
Y’all knocked it out of the park AGAIN!
I can't believe you don't have more subscribers, you two make a great team and I look forward to your videos every week! Please keep up the amazing work, Andrea. You deserve a vacation! And Dean, thank you for capturing your family's adventures :)
What an amazingly magical and memorable space you created for your kids. It’s not just a playroom, it beautifully designed for the kids with lots of love from Mom and Dad. You guys are such great parents 🥰
I've been thinking this for forever: You guys have such a beautiful family, amazing work ethics, mind-blowing design ideas, and a loving and respectful way of treating eachother. I am in awe. I hope for only good things happening for you. 🥰🤗 And Yaaaas, Andrea needs a workroom!!
My daughter also was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis last year and it has been quite a journey for her. The discomfort and fatigue are super debilitating so the fact that you work so hard is impressive!
I really wish you would change the intro to say super handy husband. Filming and editing are no small feat. I know first hand! So please do not sell yourself short. With that said, your wife is absolutely amazing at what she does. I am always so empowered and inspired by her work!
Awsome Job! Really nice result! Pro tip: Use torx head screws and you will stop stripping the heads. Plus you no longer need to push so hard because the bit wont slip.. 😊😊
I was going to repeat myself about building a miter saw table but you beat me to it!! That would be a great DIY video to share with us. "How to build a miter saw table." Beautiful playroom. Lots of inspirations.
Just started watching you and realized we're in the same town 😭😭😭 Love watching your videos 🤍 Got my inspiration back.
Now that’s a labor of love!! Beautiful space! 💕👍🇺🇸🙏😎
I am really in love with the color used for this project
Read or listen to medical medium books. Make sure you get the revised one. It talks about autoimmune and mystery illnesses and how to heal. It’s a must read for everyone!
Oh how I enjoy your channel! This room is so great for kids! I always look forward to the next video! In a world that has gone crazy you bring joy, peace and beauty! I pray blessings over you and your sweet family!
I’m a UC warrior too, so I can appreciate how she feels. Good for her in finding a doc to help her ❤️
Wow! That’s an amazing room for your family! Your an amazing carpenter! I am so sorry to hear you have UC. I am 76 & the start of mine was in my late 20,s. I pray you can get it under control with diet. I ended up with Mega Colon & had it removed. I have an Ileostomy. Good luck and you will be in my prayers and thoughts! Love y’all videos!
The room looks gorgeous!!!!! ❤️❤️
Andrea, the AIP diet does make a difference it is hard to get used to to, and from time to time you may need to go back to it to find your center. I use it with Graves and Diabetes it helps so much. Hats off girl you do wonderful work and struggling with an autoimmune is not easy. You are a warrior keep up the good work!
Use a very wet bar of soap and apply to threads of screws. You can also use a NEW wax toilet seal.
Great video! Love how the room turned out! 👏 👏
Ok so @Lowes needs to sponsor you guys and have you do one of there weekender projects. That would be a cool Collab. This playroom came out amazing as usual. Thanks for the hard work and all the great content
I am floored - excellent job!!!
You two are funny, always cracking me up. I love that room - I'd use a room like that for my personal library/office/study - minus the mini loft beds (?) Am enjoying watching DIY Wife at work, you are fab.
That is a great looking playroom for your children. I wish I was handy as you are when I was younger.❤💙💗💙💙💙
Hi Andrea, I was laughing when you tried to open the ladder package..it reminded me of my patio shade..it drove me nuts , trying to open the shade..took over 2hours. and it was wrinkled galore when I got it outta carton.. it went up on patio.. great job with bookcases. awesome room..hope you are better..cut out all chemicals, additives, in foods..just eat natural.. start your own food forest in your yard...EAT CLEAN. y'all are awesome..♡
Hhhhhhhh at the end when Andrea said: " Ahh i loves this room! " that summerize the whole project we loooved it tooo gurl!
Wow! This playroom is incredible! Andrea, you are so creative. Your kids are so lucky to have such a great space to hang out!
seeing all these PZ-screw-head-problems again and again I will remind you of the TX-Screws again and again. Industry is using them for a good reason. So much less trouble with screws going in and out....
HAPPY KIDS....Looks great!!!
The playroom looks amazing. Andrea, please be careful. I was so worried a couple to times that you would fall and hurt yourself. You don't want to break an arm or anything else for that matter.. I broke my arm 9 weeks ago cause I got to comfortable stepping over a fan cord and them I accidentally hooks my foot on it an took a belly flop on the floor. Breaking your arm It's fun and a very painful recovery at times. So please be careful. Dean please make sure to keep an eye on her and on yourself too.
Every episode I find myself talking to the screen saying, “Guys, build a table with wheels for that saw so you can wheel it in and out of the garage!” 🤣
I wish I could’ve been inspired by you back in the day when my now-grown kiddos were still young!! Fantastic results!!!
Andrea..I have lived with UC for 60 yrs! Been in remission.. could offer what I’ve learned if interested. I’m an ICU NURSE also.. people have no CLUE how UC DRAINS YOU! Fatigue, joint pain, bloat..it can be fixed!! ❤️❤️👍🏻
Beautiful job Andrea! Looks like the kids LOVE it! What kid wouldn't?? They will spend a lot of time in there I bet! Love that color of the walls. Hope you're feeling better too!!❤
You should use bar soap on your screws. It helps them go in easier.
Oh my goodness sweet Andrea I am so sorry to hear about your UC! I hope that this doctor can get you on a road to recovery! The kids play room turned out magnificent as always!!! The sliding ladder is so super cool! I would love to have had one of those as a kid growing up haha actually I’d love to have one now! Can’t wait to see what projects you do next!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Love the color of this playroom, feeI so cozy. Btw i wanna try that chipotle too.
I love CAVA! I know the feeling of eliminating yummy foods, I have had to eliminate dairy and soy from my diet. I too have just quit eating out because it’s easier, but I do miss it! I love your videos guys!
I have UC - and I went on an elimination diet as well. I eliminated cruciferous vegetables sour cream and most but not all diary. One thing that is very helpful to me is drinking kefir everyday. 6-8 oz of Kefir each day helps me to digest my food
Love it. Lowe's need to sponsor your videos. Yes workshop would be great.
Love it 😍 😍 😍 😍
Beautiful design and work... such an awesome room....!!
What a wonderful gift to your family! The playroom looks amazing!! Your walls appear to fight back like mine, I had to purchase and impact driver drill .
As always, what a fantastic job and what a magical space you have created for your children. I hope your doctor can come up with a good solution to ease your pain and discomfort. You're a great family, well done!
The shelves over the bay window seat need their own rolling ladder! This room is incredible
The design is awesome and it turned out beautiful! God love Andrea for continuing on as sick as she is! Can’t wait to see next week’s video! Prayers for healing upon Andrea! 🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️
If you hold the router at the base, it won’t be so ‘tippy’. Love your videos.
Andrea - need to make a rolling saw table darling!
The kids are so freakin' cute!
Amazing work!!! It looks great!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Andrea, I had the same autoimmune issue. It's been in remission for 5 years now. I did the GAPS diet, then Paleo Autoimmune Protocol and now I stick to Wahl's Protocol. They really work! ❤️

Hello Jaclyn, I hope you're having a beautiful day so far? Well, I'm kinda strange with how things are operated here, a friend of mine introduce me to KZread a couple months ago. Can we be friends if you don’t mind? I’ll like to know you better.
Dean wants a rolling miter saw stand for Christmas.
The room looks amazing! Love the paint color and the shelf/ladder units. GLAD to hear you're considering building a table for that beast of a saw. Put it on castors to save Dean's back. It certainly could be a project to build it.
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Y’all are blessed.
Kudos to you, Andrea, for doing the hard work and discipline to find the root cause and gain better health. Before retiring, I was a health coach specializing in digestive health. I hope you won't have to miss out on favorite foods forever. A functional doctor is a great resource. The room is awesome!
Andrea, you are an amazing woman! Everything you do is well executed & beautiful! I love watching these videos! Dean, your videography & editing are awsome!!
Hope your son had an amazing birthday! Happy 10th birthday Levi! Looks like they had so much fun. You guys crack me up. Definitely make my day when watching you guys. Ladder came out beautiful! I’ve always wanted a ladder like that 😮 The room came out beautiful 🤩 can’t wait to see the next project
WOW! It’s looks so good. Another great project for the books. I need to find somewhere in my house to get a rolling ladder.
Looks absolutely awesome great work Andrea.. What are you looking at aye ya aye!!! Dean 😂😂
Awesome playroom!!!!! roomie and cozy for the kids.
That’s a great playroom! Love it
Well done guys! What a fabulous job ❤🇦🇺
Looks brilliant, well done 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Recommend torx/star screws if you aren’t already using them. Those Phillips head bits ALWAYS slip like that - making it much more difficult to drive them in.

Oh 100%!! If you ever see me using anything else it’s because I already had them on hand but now I don’t like using anything else!
Love this! Also, the therapist in me is thinking Andrea should build a rolling table or cart for her saw to save your backs. I am in awe of all that you guys do!
Great job! Beyond impressed!
When I get multiple video notifications, I watch all the others before yours. Best for last!!! (CAVA is one of our go-to restaurants--yum!) Sorry about your health challenges. We have a friend who has crohn's disease, and it isn't always easy to deal with. Hope you find effective treatment / management. Another fantastic space!

So inviting and what a great place to sit and relax and read a book or play a game. The colors are so soothing, the rug the sitting area by the window. The ladders and the table and chairs. Great job and thank you for sharing.
