We Finished Our Utility | AN IKEA HACK
Please expand the description box for details of anything seen in this video 👇🏼
Welcome to our series of vlogs where we will be renovating our early 1960's converted bungalow in the beautiful Kent countryside. This renovation will involve a lot of #DIY as we do like to get stuck in however we are not professionals in any way so these are not tutorials 😂. From experience renovating previous properties we know that we learn from our mistakes and pick up new tips, tricks and skills along the way. This is not going to be a quick turn around, we'll be doing this over the course of the next few years so thank you for coming along for the journey, hopefully we'll still have all our limbs, fingers and toes intact by the end of it 🤞🏼

ADVERTISING
As content creation is our business and how we earn our living you will see advertising in our content from time to time in different forms:
We are very selective about what brands we work with on paid/sponsored content creation and as a rule we don't work with any brand that we don't already or wouldn't spend our own money on. We are incredibly proud of all our brand partnership content and it will always be disclaimed in the most transparent way possible so you know exactly what is and 'AD'.
Because we don't work with a large amount of brands on sponsored content we do rely on our KZhead ad revenue. Any adverts you watch during the duration of our videos will earn us a small percentage of 'ad revenue' from KZhead and we really appreciate you watching the adverts in full (and not skipping them), but only if and when you can. We also know that time is precious so no pressure.
We also use 'Affiliate Links' in the description boxes below our videos and if you make a purchase via these links we will earn a small percentage of commission depending on the sale amount. Not all links are affiliate links but just assume they are
Any items/links marked with '[AD - Pr products]' are products which have been 'gifted' from the respective brands without a contract for sponsored content. This is still classed as a form of advertising because nothing is ever "free", brands are gaining exposure to our audience by us featuring them, so these items are marked as 'AD' but we are under no obligation to feature these items. And as with our paid content, we never accept gifting/pr products from brands that we don't already or wouldn't spend our money on. If we have received a press discount on anything featured this will also be disclaimed.

This is the most beautiful utility room I have ever seen! And the fact that you made it yourself using cheaper products makes it even better!
Isn't it tho'
No, it's not
You can be so proud of yourselves. You made it look easy, but we can’t even build one ikea unit without arguing 😂 so know that it’s not. Fantastic video and a beautiful room.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Same here
🤦🏻♀️🤣🤣 I always build it alone 😁...very peaceful 😉
Haha I can relate!
😂
Your attention to detail is what makes it look high end I think. Great job as always 👏👏👏
You two are probably the only people who can make a utility stylish 😊 The idea and the realisation are both amazing!
Thank you, I’ll be sharing my original drawings over on the home account on insta soon so you can see how it came to life 🙊
Excellent job. Great design, beautifully finished. For me one of the biggest impressions: a delightful couple, each doing what they do best as a complementary team. If only more couples would see the benefits. All the best, Rob in Switzerland
Yay! DIY with Emma and Simon! What a great result; stylish and inexpensive.
Morning guys,you two are the ‘top guns’ of renovations and beautiful style.This project clearly took an enormous amount of working out plus lateral thinking.The end product looks incredible,every single tiny detail has been taken into account.A massive high five to you incredible work !!!.

Wow! Never thought I’d say a utility room looked beautiful. You’re both so talented x
Wow, you never cease to amaze me! You've both done a great job and the smooth editing in all your DIY videos are always so clear and simple. Loved it💜
What a wonderful transformation Emma! You and Simon should be so proud of such a brilliant job! The Stylish Utility Room of All Utility Rooms! And using all those IKEA hacks as well. It looks like an extremely high end mega expensive job. You both have such wonderful attention to detail. Love that the Bs have their own bath too. Can't wait to see how you built this! Looking forward greedily to more reno vids! Love to you, Simon and the Bs. X
Wow wow wow what a stunning utility! Congrats Emma, Simon and Callum on your amazing work! ❤
That's something I needed, with minimum and basic tools, that's relatable. And it doesn't look cheap at all. Kudos!
You and Simon totally outdid yourselves! The room looks BEAUTIFUL
It looks AMAZING !!! Your attention to the details and DIY ideas are one of a kind!
This is what i dreamed of having! You and Simon are the King and Queen of hags. What a beautiful space you have created. I love your creativity. You have mastered the game of simplicity and fanctionality. Your dogs are so lucky to have you. Impressed once again Emma. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏❤❤❤❤❤❤

Well done you both. Especially Simon did a very good job.How lucky you can be to have someone so gifted and talented on your side.
Queen of hacks and beautiful renovations. The utility room looks very beautiful Emma 🤍
You guys did such a great work. I love it ❤
Such a lovely new addition, Emma and Simon! The dogs would love it, so would you in the years to come, as they will, in every sense of the term, leave the home spotless!
What a fantastic makeover! You did a marvelous job. This video is a delight to watch as well as an example to be inspired by 🖤
Amazing!! You guys made the video so accessible for anybody, but I can see some master-level using the tools. Wonderful done!

Another brilliant video Emma. You two are an excellent team. Congratulations on a brilliant build.
This looks amazing! Well done
What a great team you both are Well done❤
This renovation is as awesome as all the others in your house. You and Simon are such a great team. Looking forward to your other home renovation projects.
A really beautiful and well planned utility room. Love the white oak cabinets. Awesome looking. 👍👍
You and Simon are so talented. You dream up the best options and go for it. Love all your videos!
Now that is serious inspiration for a future laundry room renovation. Very clever. It looks like a very expensive install, Emma. Seamlessly fits with the rest of your home. Very functional, too. ❤
Looks amazing! So sleek yet practical. Loving the ikea hacks.
Emma and Simon did an amazing job, as usual..that utility room as the same theme and looks beautiful...well done! ❤
I’m so impressed - well done!
Absolutely amazing. Very, very impressive design and use of space.
WoW what a lot of work each time I’m impress…your man is very skillfull and perfectionist and you make a strong team!
You've just inspired me to do this. I attempted a casing for my washer and dryer, but since we don't have ikea here in New Zealand (not yet anyway), I made one out of MDF panels. The only thing is, I haven't fixed it to the wall yet 😅 I will get onto that this week for sure. Thank you for always honestly sharing your progress. You're an inspiration to me, and I always look forward to your content, especially budget friendly ones that look a million bucks!
As always you have smashed it. Beautiful looking and practical. You have transformed the ground floor. Can't wait to see the upstairs transform.
Yours and Simon's makeovers are so stylish Emma. Looks so nice and you guys work so hard. Love it.
Wow wow wow. You both work like a pro! ❤
Perfect. You can have warm towels for the dogs' baths! All the hacks are great.
Congratulations! Its beautiful! Love the scandi design of it. Simple, elegant, practical and most important you can actually use everything! Well done 👍
Buahhhh ..... de verdad que sois estupendos!!! Teneís unas ideas maravillosas. Me encantaría tener un cuarto de la colada así. Mejor dicho una casa tan genial como la que teneís en la que mis perritas y mi gata vivirían de maravilla y nosotros todavía más. Enhorabuena a los dos y los amigos que os han ayudado!!!!
That turned out so well, your whole home is flowing so beautifully and looks like such a tranquil space!
Thank you x
Good morning Emma and Simon! Beautiful utility room! Great work! Be proud of your hard work! 💕
With every project I think you’ve outdone yourselves and then you drop a glow up like this! Absolutely stunning creative result and it looks so high end. Love the stacking of the washing machine and dryer. You, Simon and Callum are a dream team ❤
Thank you!
I think I stated on your closet redo, that I CHOSE Ikea for my kitchen, quite large, and just upgraded my appliances and countertop, and I am totally SOLD on it. I never want any other type of room cabinets. I like the drawer assembly, the hinges are top notch, the cleanability, just everything about it. You did an amazing job here, it's stunning, plus the design was so optimal! I am a big Ikea fan. Isn't it nice to walk into a newly designed room, with all of the goodies for your babies!!! Well done!
Wow it looks amazing, well done guys 😊
WOW ! how fantastically thought out and beautifully executed ❤
WOW! This is gorgeous ❤
Your home is lovely, you two are doing such a great job... everything looks so stylish and homely❤
It looks so pretty!
Your attention to detail is insane 😍 and inspiring!!!
I need a video of the dogs getting a bath in their new tub! This is amazing, everything turned out incredible ! 🌟
Having just finished my utility remodel, I'm sad I didn't see this sooner! I love mine too, but yours is very elegant and cost effective! Well done and thanks for sharing!
Emma you and Simon are so creative, I love your style and fabulous ideas, always looking forward to watch your videos ❤
This looks beautiful. A very high end result.
Absolutely stunning! What a beautiful job! 😍
Wow! You two are so clever! Well done Emma and Simon 😮😊👍🙌
Oh this is brilliant! Favorite part- the dog wash station. We just might have to make one! Thanks for sharing! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Just amazing - and looks so high end. You two are geniuses when it comes to DIY 👌
What a beautiful design you created. A very custom cabinetry look. 🎉
this is absolutely stunning emma 😍 you guys have out done yourselves- it looks so lux!! love the dog bath sm, and you can use it to hand wash clothes if needed too! brilliant x
Great use of IKEA finishes.. thanks for shaing.
This looks AAAAmazing! great job on all the hardwork!
Stunning, I love it and it works perfectly. Nice to see Simon as well, shout out to him!
Every comment expresses my fascination with your work! This room is beyond my expectations. It took your experience and sense of planning to create such a beautiful and functional room. You could definitely become planners for people’s dreams. Love everything about this room as well as the rest of your home! I don’t know what else you have planned, ….. perhaps another fix-it-upper home? I cannot wait for the next episode!😍😍❤️❤️
Not for a few years probably given the current financial situation in the UK. With the interest rates rising we’ll be staying out for a bit. We’ve still got plenty of projects left to do here though 🙌🏼
It looks awesome Emma! I would enjoy doing the laundry there, such a great use of the space. Thanks for sharing!
Some great ideas here. Your home is really taking shape. Thanks for the inspiration.
This is such an amazing laundry/utility room makeover. You wouldn’t be able to tell that you hacked multiple IKEA products to suit your space, Emma - it loooks absolutely amazing! 😮 I can’t wait to see the dog bath/sink video. Such a smart idea. Definitely something I’ll look to be doing with my water loving girl 🐶
Thank you x
Great Job, you can be proud of what you both accomplished here!!
Omg this is amazing! You’re both so clever!
Wow Emma the utility room looks absolutely stunning 🤩 ❤️
Absolutely stunning, and as so many others have said, a masterpiece of thought, planning, design and meticulous work! It looks amazing, and I’m looking forward to a demo of the dog bath, lol!! Great job! 👏👏👏👏👏👏🤩🤩🤩
Congratulations Emma and company, spectacular. 👏👏👏👏Good work
Super Stylish and Super Functional. Thank you for such great ideas.
The PAX hack for the washer and dryer was enough for me to subscribe! LOVE IT!
Very very impressive result , you can be considered diy professionals at this point . I really like this utility room , a very cleaned up and tidy style , that matches the rest of your beautiful house . Love it. Great work guys! Lots of love from Italy💕… Cinzia
This is very clever and creative to use IKEA products however you want 👏
Beautiful job! Everything looks great.
Very well done!
You guys are so talented! Wow!
This looks really amazing! You guys are so talented.
What a beautiful eye you have! And to be blessed with a practical mind - superb!
Great project, well executed. Thank you for sharing
Oh my gosh, it looks amazing! Well done both! X
That looks amazing.
Honestly, great job. It turned out looking amazing. However, I would personally be scared of that much partical board around water sources. I'd be interested in seeing how it holds up over time.
You two are such a team !! I don't comment very often but just wanted to say how much I enjoyed your HOME serie. Your minimalist and stylish tastes are so inspiring. As your closet is.
Thank you so much x
Impecable and clever utility! Love it
No way does that look cheap, you two are such an amazing duo, what a fab job that is one of the best Utility Rooms i have seen well done xx
