Haha I think he would object to the team effort implied here! 😂 He definitely did a great job though! 😍
Love everything you/Dan did in the room. I think if the curtain rods were raised to the ceiling with longer drapes,it would make that wall look longer and matched the vibe really well with the awesome shelving that goes from floor to ceiling as well ! Either way, looks so good, love the vid 😍
The room looks very much done by a wardrobe professional. You have a wonderful husband. Like Dan my husband did so many upgrades to our home from watching you tube😄. Saved a lot of money. IKEA products are great. Thanks for sharing with us.
Beautiful, Amie! ❤️❤️❤️ it’s awesome to have your own handyman at home. 😁 My husband built my walk in closet and gym after my 3rd baby. It’s amazing! I don’t have to leave my house and drive to gym anymore. Pure bliss! 🥰🥰🥰 Enjoy it, Amie! You two are a beautiful couple! 💐❤️
So good!! Dan did a great detailed explanation and was so comfortable describing his work. Obviously he has a lot of carpentry talent. I think we all enjoy how to make over the counter shelving into a custom fit! Really inspiring.
Amazing Dan! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Congrats Amie, you won the whole package! ☺️
Absolutely gorgeous, what a fantastic job Dan did!
It looks absolutely amazing!! So much work but so worth it!😊
Wow Dan did an amazing job! It looks so good!! I love these kinds of videos! Thanks for sharing Aime!
Omg…. Your hubby is really superb and so sweet! Thats so so so much effort….. really saved so much money by doing diy customisation!
I love that Dan really explained stuff and told us all the cheats he's learned from previously doing it. Why does Dan not have a DIY channel? You guys have really been hitting the gym! I can't imagine the amount of food Dan must be putting away now lol. You know the old saying..............A couple that work out and DIY together, stay together lol. Thanks so much for the great video - both of you xxx
What a handy husband you have! He’s causing trouble for other husbands by being so good at fixing up your dressing room. I am totally going to show this to my soon to be retired husband. His “honey do” list is getting long.
Wow!!! Beautiful finishing
Watched this last week - what a great job Dan did making this room look so professional.
This is sooo amazing. I‘ve always liked your dressing rooms in the past but this one… WOW🤩!
It looks incredible. Dan did such a fantastic job!!!!
Thank you for sharing the process! I love the result and this is great inspiration!
Looks beautiful! Great job!!!
Well done, Dan! Looks amazing!
It's so so nice and thank Dan for explaining how he did. I'm definitely going to do this. Love all of it!
My compliments to both of you, every place you live is beautifully decorated and comfortable. I adore Dan😍
My husband and I agree that we need this in our lives! Very chic!
Love the customization made it look built in I'm inspired thanks for sharing
Very helpful video & the room looks great.
Amazing 🤩 Now got to build up the confidence to actually have a go after watching all your videos!! Thank you so much for sharing all the details it really helps 💝 xoxoxo
Thanks Amie for this video, very useful. I always wondered about these shelves. Dan was very clean and explained very nicely with all the details a layman would need. ❤️
Dan did a great job. Looks professional. Really nice.
Yay! Thanks for sharing a dedicated video on the closet ☺️

Dan did a wonderful job explaining how he created the wall panels and the shelves. The room looks fantastic.
Is Dan a carpenter? If he isn’t, how did he do that? Wooowww, he’s so talented!! Lovely room🥰
I am so impressed on how its so professionally done! Good job to both of you 👏👏

It’s always fun when Dan makes a cameo appearance in your videos🎬 He’s done a great job!
His sweat equity is the equivalent of a Birkin bag! Bravo Dan!
Wow, Amie. You have the most beautiful closet I've seen. Minimalist, elegant, chic and everything seems to be coordinated, color wise. Well done, Dan! He so loves you! :)

Thank you for sharing this video Amie. Dan did an amazing job, just like the professional! The whole room is very detail work. I tried having my husband remodel my closet as well and the answer is "nope, too much work". Great job Dan!!!

I’m speechless for his professional carpentry works! 💕
It looks amazing. Dan is so clever. Thanks for doing this video in such detail. I would like to do something similar in my house in a few years. I have a nice big laundry with one empty wall and I want to put in shelves to house my kitchen toys and the general overflow from the kitchen, which doesn’t have as much storage space as I would like.
Good job. Turned out beautiful.
An outstanding job! Well done Dan!

Hi Amy I'm interested to know where or how do u keep your clothes??😊 Room looks nice good to have hubby on deck 💅🏾🎀
your lucky to have a good handy man!
Looks amazing! Do you ever find it annoying having your clothes and shoes & bags in separate rooms?
Hi amie where is your dressing table from and the circular pouffe seat in the middle of the room? Looks amazing well done Dan!
I love your shoe collections❤️ please do a collection video❤️❤️❤️
Looks great! Amie I wanted to ask if you still had the Saint Laurent Kate Tassel Bag and if you had any issues with oxidation on the tassel?
I really enjoyed this video. Well done Dan! Room looks great 👍. lol I loved how you roped Dan in providing the details for the description box. 😄 On another note: Brexit . how "great" did that turn out to be
Excellent job!

Looks beautiful. Can I ask which height you went for for the pax units?
Hi Amie, what’s the brand of your mirror? It looks stunning
Dan Rocks!!
Congratulations on your new closet. Do you know what color paint he used to paint the moldings to match the ikea white? I find it difficult to find or even have a place custom paint to get it to match.
woow i love it
What a lovely husband? Made his wife a dream dressing room. You are a lucky lady Amie. 😍😍😍
What do you use in your knee high boots to keep them standing? Your closet looks gorgeous.
Amie! Need your opinion, wanting to get myself a 30th birthday present, interested in the Chloe woody tote and the Gucci Diana mini, what would you pick?
I love your closet. I tried getting a white IKEA Pax closet for mine, but IKEA North America isn't able to stock the smaller white unites until May 2023. I'm hoping they come in sooner, I need my closet like yesterday! lol
Does Dan have a YT channel teaching how to do all these things? Cause I really need to learn 😍😍😍
Looks fantastic. I wish I had a partner who was as handy as Dan!! Question, do you have two closet rooms? This one and the other for clothes? Could you walk us though both at some point and how you go back between the two? Yo must have a lot of rooms!
Hi. How do you store your handbags?
Well done, Dan! Updated house tour please.
Great work Dan! This room looks awesome! You made Amie very happy!
Vanity/desk tour please :)
I thought the system for your clothes and shoes Are in the same room. Both Looks great ✌️

We thought about joining the rooms but thought it would likely devalue the house so decided against it in the end :)
@chaseamie what is your opinion on the recent Chanel price increase?
I have a question not exactly related to this video but about your corporate career/journey. You seem like a kind person overall so my question is how did you survive the corporate world as a kind person? I'm finding that as someone who tries to be kind, people will take advantage of you, do or say certain things to you and think it will be ok because you're 'nice', spread rumors that aren't true out of jealously etc. Just a suggestion, could you create a video on your corporate journey if you've dealt with issues like this or maybe tips on handling workplace politics, jealously, gossip, etc? Thank you and by the way you have the lifestyle that I aspire to have one day!!
What a beautiful room! What I love the most is that you've created a lovely space on a budget and invested in the things that bring you the most pleasure (and which you'll take with you should you ever move). Bravo!
