Nothing feels better than clearing out an area and making it more useable. Well done. And the barn is looking so good with a fresh coat of paint. Loved seeing you try out each chair! You're moving right along and I'm enjoying watching the progress.

Your house is becoming a HOME SWEET HOME❤️👌🏻☺️

Bravo! Having space cleared of EVERYTHING that is either not useable, not repairable (or too expensive to repair), and just junk trash is such a good feeling. I never understood the idea of "maybe one day" it seems unfathomable to surround myself with things that take up space--even when I have it. I know many people who have had this type of "maybe one day" items and it has been 5, 10 or even more years since they have hung on. Yikes. Keep moving FORWARD. The wild iris are beautiful.

Discovered your channel 3 weeks ago, and now kind of addicted to watch a different chapter literally every day.;-) Such a quiete place,and relaxing to stay there. That is so amazing, the repairs you have made, and how you keep carefully this authenticity of traditional swedish house. Last few years I spend my winter and spring holidays between Norway and Sweden, mostly in Stockholm and Visby and I see lots of those beautiful houses. Have never been inside, and now with your videos this is like an opprtunity to visit inside.. That is very inspiring how you are renovating this property. Dream house. Great job Marcus! Cheers from Canada.

Great to see the Barn painted . Nice looking Parker Knoll chairs great choice and goes well with the sofa. Oh those old Shell and Castrol cans are very collectable and rather expensive ,dont check the prices 😮. Have a great week Marcus 💙💛

Marcus, I have loved watching these videos from day one. The improvements are shaping your own unique personal touch on the place which is such fun to watch. Look forward to the next!

We love your videos Marcus. One of our favourite. Judy and Garry Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada❤

Marcus, the workshop looks great!!!! Your home is coming along wonderfully🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤😊

Marcus you are making great progress & very thorough in creating a nice home. Keep up the great work. All the best from Perth Western Australia.

The house has got a lot of character. 😊

The beautiful blue flowers are iris. They grow from bulbs .

So many beautiful flowers you have! I saw the tiny blue wild geranium, the blue iris, beautiful pink aquilegia and peonies! Looks like a tiresome job painting the barn.But it will look soo good!

Lovely timberwork on the old barn.

You have so many beautiful flowers. The ones you don't recognize are irises. I also love lupins and covet your overload of them, though maybe that's because I can't grow them where I live! As always, you are making wonderful steady progress, and your videos are fun to watch. Cleaning out the barn must be very satisfying.

These chairs are beauties! Love to see that step by step this house and the shed feel more and more like a home. And just for sheere curiosity about something not important at all: what did you eat? Roasted breadcrumbs? Rectangular popcorn? Processed eggs? 😉

I'm pretty sure the noisy bird is a wren making its warning call.

Beautiful chairs 😊

Those cans are collectors items $$$$.

Yes it does look like an Iris, very pretty, almost like an orchid. In South Africa we also have something similar, very small compared to an Iris that we call a 'blou pypie', blue pipe.👍

I L O V E watching red paint go on !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ❤

Great job❤

Hej Marcus, the same flower is growing in front of our little old house in the middle of Sweden and we also like it very much. We looked it up: It seems to be an Iris (Iris sibirica). ... Your videos show how much love and time an old house needs to be brought back to life. How much modernization are you aiming for in your renovation? Or is it more important for you to preserve the old charm of the property? Painting our buildings is also on our To-Do-List. But everything step by step. Like you we don`t live at the homestead permanently and we have to be careful not to take on too much at once. And document work and life in videos also requires so much time. We're excited to see what happens next for you. Vänliga hälsningar, Ulla

I agree that the flower is an iris. And I think that bird you continuously heard might actually be a tree frog or some kind of insect. Not sure, just never heard a bird do that.

I’m not an expert but I believe the flower you spoke of is a Siberian Iris. Also like the aesthetic you’re creating in your sitting room room.

If you have an iPhone and want to know what any flower is you take a picture and Open a photo in full screen or pause a video on any frame. , Visual Look Up is available. Tap the starred Info button, then tap Look Up at the top of the photo information to view the Visual Look Up results.

The bird is desperately trying to tell you, to use more paint and a softer brush…!

House is taking shape with furniture and kitchen accessories, barn looking good with new paint and clean up.

It's good to see you bringing in more to make it more comfortable. Awesome chairs, making it your own.👍

Gosh, that is a lot of hard manual painting. Have you considered buying or renting a compressor so you can spray it on instead? You’ll be doing this every few years and it would be worth the investment.

Those old tin Castrol and Shell oil can’s from your shed would have been very saleable in my homeland Holland at classic car shows and so on, at least 100 kronor each i would say….

Hi Marcus, I’ve been enjoying your videos from scorching hot Florida - they seem to cool me down!! On your barn clean up, please make sure those gray roof tiles are not asbestos. If they are, please be very careful in disposing of it. Take care! (Also, please make sure to enable captions for your videos: old people need them…)

Don’t be so quick to throw away things! Some of those old oil cans are collector items! People pay good money for them! Those flowers are a type of Iris. When you are doing a big painting job like that get a smaller container to put some paint in. That way you are not going up and down the ladder 100 times. Much more efficient. Use a piece of wire to hang the bucket from your ladder to keep both hands free.

Rekommenderar att fixa en dubbel krok som du kan hänga på stegen och på så vis hänga färg hinken på andra änden.

Marcus, I like very much watching these videos. I only know the flowers Finnish names (saksan kurjenmiekka, pioni jne.) and they are lovely.

It would cost an absolute fortune to build with timber like that here, it's cheaper to do with brick. I love the timber and found a old dismantled timber kit home from Europe many years ago and built reusing that. That was twenty years ago and I would do it again.👍

When you said the bird was going mental, you weren’t kidding! 😮 THE BARN IS LOOKING GREAT BY THE WAY. And is the Swedish red color you are using, is it more of a stain than a surface paint? And what’s the durability like? Do you have to paint yearly or does it have more longevity?

Pytt i Panna 😋

Why did you pull all those beautiful flowers?!?!

How about a roller or even better a compressor to paint such large surfaces? You are spending so much of your time painting with a brush.

I like your two new chairs, which one is the most comfortable? The paint job on the barn is looking really good 😊

the oil cans i aasume are worthh money to can collectors in the United states

👍

Blommorna som du inte sett förut heter Isris. De blommar på försommaren , du har ett vackert bestånd :)

hej,hoppas att du inte kastade oljeburkarna från Castrol och Shell ?,finns mycke folk som samlar på just sånt att ha hemma i sitt garage,lika så framlyktan i trälådan,har aldrig sett ett sånt glas som satt på den,men kul att se hur de blir med stugan när de är klart

Did you buy that yellow dutch oven or did it come with the house? i never thought i would want such a thing in that color but here i am, thinking it's sad i don't need it (i have a dark red one). i've been binging your videos few nights in a row now, love the progress.

warum entfernst du die lupinen? sind sie giftig?
