I’m pushing on with my DIY kitchen cabinets and feature wall in my off grid tiny house at what feels like a horrendously slow pace, but I suppose with this heat I’m only working short days… so there’s my excuse! I’m try to get all the pieces prepared and come up with ideas for my corner cabinets. I think I’ve finally got a plan and I’m working towards that by making each of the pieces of the cabinet puzzle. I’m also making some progress on the feature wall with the shelves, but it’s also slow going.
It still looks like a cave in there but I have a plan, I promise!
As always, thanks for watching and please do share the video around, like, comment, and subscribe if you like what you’re seeing. Thanks!
For anyone who’s interested, here’s a link to the Makita saw I was talking about in the video: https://www.makitatools.com/products/details/XSR01Z I’m not pushing Makita tools or anything, they’re just what I happen to have. But I do quite like them, and some people suggested that giving little tool reviews here and there might be helpful… so forgive me if it sounds like a sales pitch. I just blab on about the tools I use from time to time and I’m sure there will be some I don’t like, too (I’m looking at you, jigsaw!)

Bravo top bon travail
A bientôt 👍
I'm really enjoying your channel! It's very refreshing to see someone who's "real" and you're very inspiring to me. I'm a new subscriber looking forward to all your future videos :-)!
Kolay gelsin Türkiyeden selamlar 🌹
I commented on this before and you replied that you needed to have more content before giving viewers the option to thank you with a small monetary gift. I think you’re there…..and I’m desperate to at least donate the cost of a new pair of work gloves 🙂
Wonderful job
You are so clever
Thank you for sharing 😁
If I were a neighbour, I’d help sharpen your chisels, as a gardener, sharpening secateurs is a weekly job. You have inspired me to build my kitchen myself. You’re great, thank you for sharing 🙏😎
🇨🇦🇹🇷🌸
I like your attention to detail.

I also enjoy chiseling. Strangely satisfying!
Great job. I can almost picture it's going to look really nice. can't wait to see the finished kitchen!😊🌻
I admire your girl ! inspirational for other women who want to be self sufficient.. Love that nothing is perfect ! cool.
You make me smile … X
We love your 'sanding montages' 😁 Very ASMR relaxing to watch – and invigorating to see the quality outcome.
Do you know anyone who lives in off-grid how bought one land in Portugal and who isn't a digital nomad? Is it possible to have a self sufficiency sustainable life?
I love the project life and want to change my life a better life.
🙋hi from Scotland hi Kirsty well done you are amazing at woodwork can't wait to see it put together and waxed it will look so lovly take care till next time cheers 🍷🍷 Anne from Scotland
Great watch Kirsty x
Your sacked!!! I just saw u use a wood chisel to chisel stone! Omg 😲
One can really see progress and your lovely piece of land has lost that harsh and raw newness and has softened into a comfortable homeliness. It must be the love you put into it. Well done, Kirsty. Looking forward to seeing the kitchen as it progresses!
You are making great progress. I got tired of watching this other couple in Portugal that takes a whole yr to just plaster their wall. It’s fun to see someone also work on wood as well—I’m a beginner so it’s fun to see carpentry work.
Thanks! Polish Sosij
Not first!
Sorry to hear you weren’t feeling well. This heat is no joke and it seems like everyone in the world is affected. We would watch just about any video you do at this point, so don’t hurt yourself in the heat for our sake. Save that heavy stuff for the cooler weather. We would love more tours of the garden, cooking and preserving vids, and just general hang out story time and chit chat. Your health is priority one!
Beautiful wood
The project is coming along nicely, good job!!!
Hi Kirsty. I can't find your email anywhere. I'm your neighbor. I want to do some swaps. I would email you but I can't find it anywhere. Is it in your about area?
Nice work-Enjoy watching your videos. I love your work ethic. Reminds me of when I lived on Crete for 8 years. If it's too hot you'll get it tomorrow…That's the Cretan way. :). I was visiting In-laws in Norther Portugal (Ponte de Barca) in June. It was hot first week and cool after that. I know you guys baked in July and August. Hope the fires weren't close to you. My in-laws did ok on there little farm. Keep up the good work. Hopefully well retire there soon.
