Thank you to Sakuraco for sponsoring our video! My DIY projects never turn out as cheap as I had hoped. 🙃 Our house is slowly coming together, room by room! This project was our joint exercise room, sun room, Jun's wardrobe, and cat's fav spot. The setback with the cat tower actually turned out well since we like its new location even better! I'm very excited to make a custom cat tower for this room at some point, but our cats desperately need a custom litter box next so that'll likely be my next project!

How many times did Poki yell in this video Thank you to Sakuraco, use Code “RNJ” to get $5 off for your first box here: team.sakura.co/racheljunadventures-SC2301 . Valentine's Bliss box available until Feb 15th! Somehow with every project I end up wanting to give up about halfway through, but I'm always glad I stuck them through! I'ma say that's about 95% thanks to you guys, because if I wasn't making videos about them I probably wouldn't have the motivation to finish, haha. Unexpected youtube benefits?? It feels sooooo nice to have our exercise room all cleaned out and set up nicely, and we've found that we really like the new spot for the cat tower these past few days! Would love suggestions for a custom cat tower design to put in our exercise room window, or tips on how to prevent thin mirrors from turning into carnival funhouse mirrors 😭

I have a similar grid of mirrors and after a while you won't notice the irregularities and instead your eyes will just get used to how open the room feels. So don't feel bummed out about it at all. It came out really well. If it really aggravates you, you can break up the effect by hanging some high end artificial vines or other irregular shapes nearby so your brain isn't confused by the right angles of the grid itself. But I would just leave it. Well done!

Pichi cuddles at the end were so cute!!! I've seen furniture restoration channels use mineral spirits (an organic solvent) or even a cloth dampened with water to check how wood can look before staining and sealing them. You wipe a little bit on the wood and it will simulate how it looks after staining and lets you check if you've sanded everything correctly or if marks are still there. Just make sure you let it completely evaporate first before sealing.

What you did looks good and I think the cat tower fits really well in its new placement.

Want to recommend those cat hammocks that you can stick and fix onto a window for your exercise room! I think having a floor-to-ceiling cat tower would block the perfect view you have there on your treadmill and also makes the door harder to open... if you only have a few hammocks attached to the glass door that will probably save the problem of opening the door (and luring cats to stay there while you exercise!)

Pro tip! when it comes to removing a sealant, it easier to instead of sanding use a paint stripper and a metal scrapper! Also if you don't like chemicals they also make a paint scrapper that is quite sharp but makes it easier to get it even! Additionally, if you sand anything significantly, take a pencil and lightly go over the surface, that way you can ensure that you don't go over the same area too much which causes dips.

hehe 'the best thing about winter is she gets cold' - i hope Pichi is all snuggly and warm with you now!!!💖💖 also i am very impressed with how you kept with the project and tried to make it better (even if it turned out to be more work), i have yet more of a 'ugh sigh good enough' attitude 😹😹

Just to say hi from England and I really appreciate your channel. I love cats and am in love with Haku, Nagi, Poki and Pichi - also soooo chuffed to see how far Pichi has come! 🥰🥰🥰 I’m in awe of your DIY skills Rachel, you’re a real inspiration and also love Jun’s cooking content. I actually really love all these normal life videos and love getting to check in on people I like whenever you post. Thank you 🤗💗

It's so amazing to see how comfortable Pichi has become with you guys. She looked so content sitting on Rachel's lap!

Omg Rachel my back hurts just watching you haul around exercise equipment/bulk cat tower with cat. Also I love how Poki MUST be heard all the time.

I love these videos because I find them so relatable. I am often over ambitious in my crafting projects. And sometimes it works out really well and sometimes I just have a breakdown and hate the thing that I end up making. Rachel, you do such great work.

i really like that you guys are just acknowledging that jun folding his clothes is probably something that is not going to change and are choosing to work around the issue rather than keep trying to make it work. it’s refreshing.

TIL there are noise cancelling headphones and then there are Poki cancelling headphones.

Just rewatched your old videos with Poki and noticed how extrem his eyecolor changed over the years! Back then they were a beautiful sunflower yellow with jade colored spots to completey jade colored now! Such an amazing little boy ^.^

rachel the answer is yes. you learn the difference sounds between the child being genuinely distressed and sometimes a toddler being fussy to fuss, it can be manually tuned out if needed😂
