It's a freaking movie with an unbelievable ending.
This is the cutest frickin' thing I've seen in ages. The sound I made when the Barutoad hopped into the house cannot even be described. So fun! It was great to see you do a smaller, creative, fun project instead of a large furniture project (though I'm always in awe of those too!). Why do I suspect this is just the opening salvo in a whole mini-fairy garden?

I’m just adore you Danie. You words at the end about doing projects that make your heart soar was so moving. You are incredibly talented - from the big renovations down to detailed homes from the tiniest creatures. It’s about the joy and the emanates from you always. I am inspired to make my own toad home now!
What a toadal win! I love watching creators make diorama’s/miniatures and the likes. So I’ve really enjoyed your video and I’m glad you had a great time making it. Sometimes you just need to do something that inspires you! ❤❤
This channel is all about you and your creativity and we all appreciate your skills and trial and error. I absolutely love this! I'm making a fairy house with my granddaughter this summer and would love some more tips! 🧚♀️
This turned out to be absolutely fantastic! I want to create a fairy toad garden! It's not silly at all! We all need a little magic in our lives ✨️
C'mon! A Cottagecore toad house?! This is the best project ever! Giving me great Studson Studio vibes; I really love it!
Dannie got her creative groove back. We all know, honestly, she never lost it!! This is EPIC and you have given us inspiration to go out there and be crafty , fail and embrace the glorious outcome because that was what it was meant to be. AND…be kind to the critters 🐸. Love ya!
I LOVE IT! 💚 🐸 Yes you have inspired me to make a home for my garden friends.
OMG this literally brought tears to my eyes at the end when the toad went in! It was the cherry on top for all of your hard work and hopes! I freaking LOVE this!
The level of tenacity this required was 9000. Amazing work Danie! The toad is so lucky to have you!
After a week full of bs, I just needed this. I needed to watch you thrive and glow whilst creating this magical project, and I needed to hear the words you said at the end. Thank you, Danie!
This is absolutely lovely, this whimsical toad house is not silly at all. I love it !
You rocked that toad house!!! It came out so much better than I could imagine. How about a "Toad Village"??? Keep doing things that give you joy. That is one happy toad.
You defininitely reignited my creative enthusiasm for making silly things! It is SOOO necessary to enjoy oneself, try new and unusual techniques, and to use art for fun! It reminds me of working with about 20 special needs children to build a cardboard gingerbread house, using real sweets. We then put it outside in a small garden and made lots of other things to go around it, including paper cutout and embellished fairies and pipe cleaner insects. Unfortunately, we had to take it in as the squirrels began to eat it. Then we had to destroy it as one pupils kept trying to eat the sweets.....! Dannie, you have inspired me to start working with kids again, after a break of about 5 years and having Long Covid for 3 years. At least I can start in a small way, with a project like this! Thank you so much!
My favorite part Danie is that you're giving the toad a pool for his house! Once you started adding all the details that really came to life and I absolutely love it so much! I Love you and your toadily silly puns.
This was an utter delight! I have so much fun watching you every Saturday. Thanks for creating fun content. Oh, and LOVE the hair.
This is the cutest project 😍😍😍 the toad inside his little house is just adorable 😍😍😍
Loved this episode. Don’t second guess yourself, we are here for your magic✨ and uniqueness. So many DIY channels show the same trendy DIY’s. Your audience appreciates the creative projects that are specific to you vs trends. The second guessing is part of the depression funk that will pass. This is just a moment in time, you will come out of the tunnel into the sunshine by doing the things (like this) that really matter to you. Keep on being you. You’re truly special and we are so lucky we get to see your creative genius every Saturday. ☀️ PS- Your super power isn’t your purple hair it’s your creativity. Throw a funky bandana on with that cute punky haircut (Rosie the riveter vibes)👍🏻
You created with your inner child. It gave you joy, we could see/ hear it in your voice and all over your face. Congrats your toad house turned out so cute.
So fun to watch your process on this one! Your vision of mashing random pieces of thrifted items totally worked... This house is perfectly adorable and that sweet toad looks happy 💕😊 Now you need to come to Florida and build my tortoise a house next!!! 😀
Catherine on Dainty Diaries made a hedgehog house for the one that visits her garden. She has a walled backyard so she also cut an arch in the bottom of her gate so he would have easy access. I think the toad house is great.
Absolutely Stunning for a Toad, what a life he will have. You could also continue with a place for the Bee's, Butterflies and Humming Birds by your greenhouse lol!! They would love you!!
Like the DIY community on KZread, there's a whole miniatures community- even a whimsical miniatures community. This cross-over was great fun.
Woo hoo It’s SaturDIY with the best DIYer ever Danie. Hugs , love and prayers girl. Love the hair then again you always rock the hair world. Toad houses hmmm cheesy humor in a good way is always appreciated. I’m toadally here for it 🐸

You nailed it Danie! It turned out so cute. You've inspired me to make a birdhouse inspired by your toadhouse!
Toad Hall is awesome. I think a little fairy house outside your greenhouse would be so cool as well. The more whimsical, the better.😀
I'm 64, and I still love cute and whimsical. This was a joy to watch ❤. When I had a yard I had toad houses in all of the gardens, so much fun to see them in use. 🐸
I have a collection of things to make fairy houses ....but with weatherproofing and an open door.... Thanks for the inspiration ❤
❤❤❤❤❤ oh my God I absolutely love your toad house I think all frogs and Little critters should have their own. I have one but it's not like that. That's a mansion
I just love how your brain works! The world would be a better place if everyone unleashed their creative beast. The toad in his new home made my day. Keep being you Danie!
I cried when the toad went in the house and seeing how happy you were having your creation completed and being used by a toad. I LOVE IT!
It's not silly when your soul soars. It's a wonderful project.
Don't worry, Danie! This is what we expect from you really! 🤣 If it isn't weird, it wouldn't be DIY Danie! MORE MORE MORE whimsical creations!
This project is so beautiful and I got so invested in your toad house journey that I literally teared up when the little guy hopped inside
Absolutely love this toad PALACE!!! I love miniatures in general and have several dollhouses...now I think my resident chipmunks need a special place!!!
Its beautiful Danie!! I love making small structures! I’ve done several and it is so satisfying! Some people understand, and some don’t, but those of us who enjoy these types of things have access to a whole other world of imagination and creativity. Keep doing what you’re doing. ❤You bring joy to this world.

Yes! My BFF tries to understand but the poor love just isn't built that way LOL
This is EPIC! Great job ❤❤❤ look at that little toad!
When the toad hopped inside, I felt pure joy ❤
I think it would be great to turn this into a little series. You could do a bird house, a bat condo, a bee box, and design them to feel like a little community
This is absolutely gorgeous! The joy you experienced making it brought me joy! ❤
This toad house is why I watch you! You are magic!
I am 67 and whilst watching this project I have sat here thinking ooh I could do something like this by my little pond, motto of this story your never to old for a bit of silliness 😄
So stinking cute! I absolutely agree that it is important to create what makes you happy! My 3 year old granddaughter has a play kitchen and I went to town making her felt food for it - even a blueberry pie with, you guessed it, tiny blueberries! So much fun. I love your channel and you too! 💖

Nancy, these are core memories right there. I'm 33 and I still remember the Barbie dresses my grandad made for me. This is not so much about the felt food/dresses/final product, this is about feeling loved and cared for. Family members like you are a dream. She's so lucky to have you, trust me as someone's granddaughter and fellow human. :-)
I found this so inspiring! I think it's so awesome that you took bits and bobs from the thrift store to make something you love and to help out nature no less! Love love love it!
Ok seeing that toad go into his house was one of the cutest things I have ever seen! That little cottage is just precious! Love it!,
People are probably going to think that you are a magical person for creating such a beautiful, funny little home for your little toad. That's what I think, anyway. Don't limit yourself; I absolutely love this project.
Danie, Your Toad House is one of the cutest yard ornaments I have ever seen. Thank you for taking us through the creation process.
I'm a full grown woman, and watching you making a toad house is gives me more joy than I imagined! 😍
I think the time, effort and sheer creativity is amazing and to be inspired by a toad and provide him a home with a swimming pool is sooo sweet. Adorable and beautiful with a practical nature 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏
Always hold on to that inner child that we all have inside… but lose sight of when we become adults with life’s challenges. Never apologize for what you have held onto in life… That is truly beautiful. I am working on reviving my inner child that once was!❤
This was the sweetest fun project ❤️ Thank you for bringing your authentic self! I want to make one now :)
This may be my favorite project! This week has been so hard and a moment of whimsy really was what I needed, thank you for being your authentic self Dani!
I will NOT censor your creativity. I’m in full support of what you present. I can’t even fathom how you hauled all of the items w/intention & every single piece had a job. By the end of the video, my mind was blown. 🤯🤯 What an incredible, sweet 🐸 🏠 💚
A little frivolity is good for the soul. I think people take things too seriously sometimes and a little innocent joy and magic is needed to rekindle our kindness.
This is absolutely the sweetest little toad house ever! The precious toad inside his home. Melts my heart! ❤
I’m having a really bad pain day today so Narutoad had me cracking up and was exactly what I needed. The project turned out so cute, I vote for a whole Toadtopia city! The toads obviously agree that you’re an elite toad home architect, so adorable when the little toad moved in ❤
I LoVe the Toad House, now we need a village for the fairies that Follow and a few bridges and overpasses into the trees for when it rains...why not !! LiFe should be full of magic ❤💝😘💗
This is EXACTLY the content I subscribe for. A tiny toad village would be immaculate
I loved this video, no end to your creative talent and I laughed out loud many times with your humour!
This little cottage is sooo cute!!! I really hope Barutoad and Narutoad (and other toads) appreciate it! This project really is what I love about your channel!🥰
Danie, you are weird and silly in the absolute best ways and utterly adorable. This was a great, fun project.
Its so cute! The mixture of "practical" DIY furniture and room makeovers, and fantasy projects like this is what makes you and your content so fun. I love that this is like building a fairy house, but for real wildlife (toads).
By sharing this, you inspire us to lean into that ✨magic
I love this!!! It’s adorable and I appreciate all the details. And the toad went inside to hang out! Also, your hair looked especially cute in the ad read.
Absolutely LOVE your toad house, Danie, and, being a Harry Potter fan, I love that you based it on The Burrow. ♥ It was not a silly project at all. Anything that gives you that much joy is a must-do, IMHO. 😄 I create a fairy garden beside my front door every year and I am 72 years old. 😊 Always keep your inner child alive, I say! Yippee! 😃♥

So whimsical and fun! Makes me think of the Frog and Toad books, I think they'd love a little cottage like this :)
This whole video made me smile. I needed it. Also the cherry on the cake is that a toad instantly moved in. This was perfection. ❤
I loved this!!! I want to make one now!! once you get into your 50's you will realize that you have lived a life worth living and that no one matters but yourself and your loved ones. I could give a rats behind about what others think about anything anything I do, I wear, I say. I am living my life my way, Yeah I now understand what Old Blue Eyes was talking about...I did it my way, to heck with everyone else! But you still have to be kind and be happy...I am making a garden and filling it with all the things I love and I have people telling me this and that and blah blah blah...I am having fun with it! Enjoy life and never never never worry about what others think about you. besides they are too busy thinking about themselves anyway! hahahaha!
I honestly love watching you make things, any things. It doesn't matter what it is, its a lot of fun watching you explore different mediums. Anything artsy and craftsy, its all good. This house is so cute.
I love that your creativity goes beyond the expected. This toad house is adorable, and I'm glad you went with your heart, and as you said, what really makes you happy 🥰
I have no toad in my yard but a strange urge I also need to do this diy 😂❤
Maybe the most beautiful part was when Jeffrey supported your project in the best way possible. He's a keeper.❤
Love it! So cute! We have a neighbor who made a fairy garden at the base of a tree. We see neighbors all the time, especially kids, who stop to look at it. It's so delightful! And so is the toad home! Delightful!! ❤
Your husband loves you so much. He saved the toad for you! And how magical it was when he went in!! I love this. Love you❤. Needed this! Save the toads!

Oh Danie! I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE that toad house! And your excitement when the little ribbit hopped into the house - PERFECT! This video did nothing but give me warm feels and a HUGE SMILE!!!!! Thank you for being true to YOU!!!! You are amazing - never doubt it!!!! MUCH LOVE FROM IOWA!
This video starts off proving the old crafting adage: If you fail to plan, you plan to fail to stick to your budget and just buy every cute thing you come across. The house was cool enough on the workbench, but is looks AMAZING in the garden. Great job!
This made my soul so happy. You shouldn't doubt yourself when you post stuff like this because these beautiful, thoughtful, "weird" projects are what make your channel stand out. Thank you for adding beauty and magic to the world- we need more of it. 🖤
Here I am, 100% committed to watching a toad house making video that I really have no business watching……why? Because I 100% enjoy watching Danie and her quirkiness. I could literally watch Danie make anything and I would thoroughly enjoy it, because personality is EVERYTHING and you, Danie, have an amazing personality.
A lot of work resulted in a cute house for a toad...and the best is: she moved in !!! 🙂
The only thing more fun than you making this toad house was watching you create this magical toad home! So dang cute.
I absolutely love it. The love you put into making this home radiates through the finished project and the sheer joy you had when the tenant was home. There isn't anything you do that I don't enjoy. This one was special in its own way.
Dani - your energy, imagination, creativity knows no bounds! This is stunning! So sweet! Regardless of what anyone thinks, you do what feeds your soul and Toadtopia for the win! You just glowed. Nicely done! Now I want one! A whole village - for toads and turtles - how fun! You are loved, Dani!! Enjoy your day and your new toad home!! 💕💕💕💕
Danie, Daniel, Daniel! Why do you doubt that we'd love what you did?! That. Toad is the luckiest toad ever!
Love it! Other people who don't get it don't matter. Seeing the toad making itself at home in it was pure magic.
I'm convinced you have a mythical complexion that matches all blonde tones. How does it look so good with cool tones AND warm tones?! 🐉🦄 ✨🔮
I started watching this morning, my kids usually don't watch your show with me. But my 11 year old son and 6 year old daughter both sat down with me to watch and thought that the toad house was the coolest thing. Every new masonry spot you showed prompted an "Ooh, I like that" from my kids. We will now be building fairy, toad, and bird houses this summer. Also, we are now watching the Gotham book nook episode, so we will probably be building book nooks, too. It's so difficult to inspire my son to do craft projects, but your show has shown him how cool projects can be.
The best about it is how the toad just went in like a BOSS!! My house...❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
The entire time I was thinking how absolutely unbelievable it is that you literally made a whole a$$ house out of odds and ends going off of a vision. This is one of the coolest creative projects I’ve ever seen! Your trust in yourself and love for the creative process is truly admirable and I thank you for reminding us all to just have fun and enjoy the process🤍🐸🛖🍄
Your toad cottage is NOT SILLY! It's freaking MAGICAL and it's absolutely beautiful!!!! ❤❤
Not only this project is not stupid al all, but did you know that there's a whole community of miniature builds on you tube?? People build the most incredible miniature structures...and your toad house is absolutely adorable :)
The toad house is amazing. I love that you care for God’s creatures. There is something good and happy about doing that. Keep doing what brings you joy.
It's adorable!!! and a work of art! Omg, I couldn't believe how Mr. Toad moved right in, that was just the cutest thing ever.
This was so fun! My older brother used to have an elaborate train set, and the building of this reminded me of all the little houses and crossings and things he'd make for it. And it's a house for toads now!
