I vote Yes on the haunted house! 😀 I love seeing all the progress!
I’m enjoying your renovation so much! Thank you for making each video so intriguing. I can’t wait till the next one. I vote yes on the haunted house story! 😊
Me too
Seeing your Black and Decker chopper made me smile. I’ve had mine for at least 30 years and it still works like a charm. And yes to haunted stories.
I’ve had that same little chopper for 33 years lol!
Same here, my mother in law gave me a black and decker handy chopper over 30 years ago and it still works great!
Haunted house? Sign me up! Love the idea of incorporating your family S in the Sugarwood name.. kudos to your husband for thinking of it.
Great video, I would love to hear about your haunting
Enjoying the updates. The Butlers Pantry is looking so good. Yes to the haunted house and can't wait to hear about the genealogy. Jeanette, New Zealand.
Oh YES PLEASE! How wonderful Ben gave you a genealogical type gift! Can’t wait to hear about the haunting at Groton house 😮😊!
Linda, your hands-on approach to decision-making is so helpful to the contractors. I am sure they appreciate that. It allows them to get it right without guessing what you may or may not want. The remodel is coming along so well. Thank you so much for sharing this with us!❤
I hope so!
Your hair looks fabulous and great call on three shelves over two! The more the merrier! Of the three wallpapers, I love the first two over the third, but all are beautiful and whichever one resonates with your heart is all that matters. Whichever one you choose, it will be lovely. Also, moving the microwave to the other side makes great sense. Perfect placement! Thanks for sharing your busy progress! ❤
Everything is coming along nicely! Would like to see evidence the house was haunted👻!! I Iove watching your channel and look forward to every episode.
Many years ago, when I was young I had to leave my home. Luckily, my friend found me a job as a live-in nanny for a very wealthy family living in a mansion in Newport, RI. Up until then I did not believe in ghosts, but this place was definitely haunted. A "woman" lived in the attic. My friend was also a nanny at the house and we both saw her from time to time (and also saw the effects of her shenanigans - faucets turning on and off, items moving around, etc.). The gardener also saw her, as did the kids for whom we were nannying. The owner of the house was quite aware of her presence, too. My friend and I were often left alone in this huge mansion with the kids (for days at a time). We all ended up sleeping in the same room. I was terrified to go anywhere in the house alone. I actually wrote a story about it and a writer in Hollywood is converting into a screenplay!
I admire your ability to make decisions. Even if you go back and forth on something, you get things done. I can't even choose paint color for the walls.
I want to hear all of the stories!
I love the grounds at Sugarwood so much! All those stunning trees! Bless you and Ben for being able to live with that mess for weeks. I honestly don’t think I could ever do it.
Wow everything is coming together so beautifully! I love all the wallpaper samples. It’s so hard to decide isn’t it? Love your cabinets, both kitchen and butler’s pantry! And yes!! Let’s have some haunted news!!
Thank you so much! I went with the toile!
I love hearing about haunted houses, Linda.
I'm interested in the "proof"!
This is all so interesting. I know living it is so different. Everything will end up just gorgeously. We will have witnessed the process to get to that point. You are amazing, Linda.🎉👏 I love that you, and your husband have a date night each week. Thank you for sharing this with us. 💫💛🤗
Such a fun video. Absolutely loving everything you’re doing in the kitchen. Thanks for taking us along for the ride! And, proof that the Groton house was haunted?!? Yes, please! 🤗
As a retired professional paperhanger, I think the larger print will be lost with all the cuts you will have to make. I love the first one, matches perfectly. I'm sure there would be something very similar on the market if that one is discontinued. The last one with the blue, I don't care for. The back round color gets lost, the blue is predominant. And by the way, the exterior of my home, garage, sheds and shop are all the color Briarwood. I have had this color for many years. I actually had everything painted a couple of years ago using the same Briarwood (I love it so much that I didn't want to change). You have good taste!
Yes, I found and order the toile right after the video. It is on its way. Briarwood was the exterior of two of our family homes. Love it.
@@newenglandfineliving So looking forward to the completion of the kitchen. You have done such a great job putting it all together, great attention to detail. Make it the way you want it to be. After all, you are the one living there!
Yes, tell us about the haunting of your old house.
Linda, we renovated an old farmhouse about 6 years ago. Yikes, what a project! Everything was crooked and needed to be replaced😬! However, we have lived in many new homes and this is by far my favorite. You just need a lot of money and patience, ha, ha!
I have that exact mini food chopper. I got it in 1989 at my wedding shower and still work’s beautiful. I do have the KitchenAid processor in black and it’s fine after 5 years. 😊
I vote YES as well Linda! I'd love to hear about the haunted house! Regarding the lifetime of appliances which are made overseas...It's just poor quality and poor workmanship. We are in our second set of washer and dryer in only 6 years. The same goes for my LG refrigerator. We have come to terms with the fact that they won't last more than 2 years. My little hand mixer is 42 years old and still going strong. It was made here in the USA. Things are looking really great in your kitchen!
I vote YES for haunted house info
Yes, Please! My Sister and her husband owned a clapboard house, in Connecticut, built by a Sea Captain in the mid 1800's. It was definitely haunted!! When their little girl of 3, started seeing a tall man with a long black hat standing at the foot of her bed, they sold it immediately! Right in the middle of renovation. They have only built or bought new ever since. ❤ from GA
I too am loving your vids Linda, I love watching you 'problem solve' AND I think it must be said: your contractors are heroes!!
Me too. It has given me more confidence to do my own DIY.
You are right!
When my Kitchen Aid mixer died after 20 years, my husband sanded down the brass accessory drive bushing which was binding and would not allow the machine to operate...viola, it worked! Your contractor and workers are doing outstanding work and committed to project. And yes....proof that your house was haunted and how you lived through that experience.
Your kitchen remodel is coming along!!! Yes I would love to see any info regarding your previous house being haunted!!!
Linda, your patience with the reno project is admirable. I’m not even living in the chaos but I’m chomping at the bit for it to be competed. And YES to hearing the haunted tales of the Groton house 👻
My decor is mostly earth tones so I don't have a speck of blue, but the blue wallpaper made my heart happy. I think it would be beautiful. In my next home, I will definitely incorporate more greens and blues.
I love the 2nd wallpaper that has a grain sack stripe and look . It is so unique . Yes, yes, yes on Groton house haunting!
Enjoying all of everything that is going on in your home.. Love it.. Can’t wait for the next updates.. Yes I would like to know about Groton House..!! Thank you..
Very exciting Linda! I'm going to be remodeling my kitchen this year. I appreciate you making changes as you go - let's me know it's okay to change your mind!
Your renovations are coming along beautifully Linda. I’ve had my Cuisinart for forty years. I use mine all the time and couldn’t do without it. 👍🏻💕
Loving the renovation!
Heck yes to your haunted house! 👻
I had to laugh about the cold coffee. I have done that so much. I find cold coffee in my sun room and the Bathroom! Yes, on the haunted stories.
Great progress! A good solution for the microwave! I love a good ghost story
Yes, please share your haunted house story. I live in one now, and I have to deal with so many things all of the time. Also, I lived in New England, since the time I was born, till about 1992, and most places my family lived were haunted to some degree. I’m always interested in other peoples stories, and what they live/lived with and had to deal with. I love to see your houses, and all the places you take us, in New England. I feel like I’m home, if only for a little while.
Linda you have helped me so much! I’m working with a contractor on several med range to small projects. Before watching your videos I thought I had to have all the answers immediately. Instead now I’m taking my time and looking at choices first. Thank you ❤
Wonderful!
It’s coming along! Can’t wait to see the completed project!
Love following along with your thought process with the renovations. I am learning so much as well as being inspired
Oooh the haunted thing sounds exciting Linda. X
All looks so nice!!
You had me at haunting! Tell us more!!!!
Loving the progress in your kitchen remodel ❤️
This is so exciting! You must be over the moon. Yes for the haunted house story, the S for your logo is a great idea!
Looks like your kitchen is moving along. I love that you take us along. I have had a Hamilton Beach food processor for quite awhile and it has been great. I also have one of those Black and Decker small choppers. They last forever. Yes, I would love for you to talk about the ghosts in your previous home. You have such an interesting channel. I never miss a video. Thanks!
If the ceiling is high enough, a good idea for the deep space over the fridge is a cupboard with slots to store & slide trays.
Unfortunately the space is shallow. we had to cut the cabinet and put a back on it to fit the odd shaped opening.
Having fun watching these videos as the kitchen progresses. I also use the steel wool trick and it really works, when I redid my kitchen and pulled out the old cabinets did the same thing. Hang in there, when it’s all over, it’ll well be worth it.
I love watching your progress. So many details.!
Linda, you are truly blessed to have such a large kitchen. Lookd amazing!
YES! BRING ON THE HAUNTING!!
Yes! Steel wool is a great critter-stop! Will add that Pest Stop to my arsenal - thank you.
Please tell all about your haunted house! Loving the kitchen remodel and all of your ideas. Thank you so much.
It makes such a difference working with the contractors along the way and taking care of the issues ahead of time.
I'm so excited to see your final results of the butler's pantry. I am making sure my next house has one. Love love them!
Your coming along! Looking forward to see the kitchen finished! Detail is so important when you redo a kitchen! 😊
So true!
Yes to the ghost story ! Enjoyed this video , looking forward to the next. What a nice Christmas gift from Ben !! See you next time .
I bought my Mom a Cuisinart back in 1981 and paid $110 for it back then. I have it now and after 41 years, it still chops and mixes and works as well as they first time it was used. They don't make things like they used to, but this was one of the best investments! And I enjoy and love the way your kitchen and butler's pantry is progressing. You are making all the right calls! 👍
Hi Linda! I sometimes get up at 4:30 am but I am amazed that you are so “with it” without coffee! Everything is really coming together and your decisions are really good ones…shelves, moving microwave, and the other things that always seem to surface when remodeling. The contractors doing a super job. I have had my Cuisinart food processor (9 cup) since the early 90’s. it still works well…use it for pastry, pizza crust, and other things. My KitchenAid mixer was bought in 1979 and it’s still going strong. Perhaps because they are older, they are better made. Love your date night with Ben…love seeing pictures of the places you go. Everything is going to be beautiful; feel like it’s my kitchen. Thanks so much Linda-look forward to your adventures.
I had a KitchenAid that burnt out so I invested in a 12 cup Ninja - very happy with it and was lucky to catch it on sale. I make a lot of bread and let my Ninja do all the kneading, can’t beat it.
Thank you! I will look into that brand
Totally agree about the relocation of the microwave; the cookbooks will be such a nice visual! Things are really starting to pull together; you must be so excited. 🥀🥀
I am!
It's all slowly coming together. I'm enjoying watching you.r reno from Melbourne and seeing all your snow garden pics while we are sweltering in very high temperatures. I too am remodelling my home and just got done with the kitchen. The walls are still needing to be painted. My next part is my staircase and that I am really looking forward to. It all takes time and time to save the money. And I like you am maintaining the character and not gutting it and turning it into a 'modern' masterpiece for lack of a better word. My home is 31 years old built by me and hubby and is French Manor style. Love your videos Linda. ❤️
It sounds wonderful!
Omg, such good stuff from you! I can hardly wait for the next video!!!!!!! Woohoo!
Yes tell us about you experience of the apparitions!
I love knowing if spirits were in your former home. I know there is a spirit of a young girl in my 1880 home
I grew up in Lexington! Love that you brought this up! I love your RUclips show!!
I have an Oster blender that I got after I lost everything in a hurricane. I had my daughter on the day of the hurricane and the blender is as old as she. The blender is 52 years old and still going strong.
So exciting, can't wait to see everything!
Thank you so much Linda. So enjoyable!
Hi Linda, you look so pretty! I like your hair. Also, I’m excited to see the kitchen and pantry coming along. The wallpapers look very nice. I did not know you were going with blue? I thought the taupe or green? Yes, I would be interested in the haunted house Grotenwood…Boo!💕
I am not sold on the blue. They are samples I had on hand to consider. The ones I’m order are different colors
@@newenglandfinelivingI think I liked the other wallpapers better. However, I was not seeing them in person. I know you will make your kitchen and pantry look beautiful! Can’t wait💕💕
Yes on the haunted story. Kitchen is coming along and can’t wait to see the finished results..😀
The Bedford Inn is so charming, we ( my daughter and I ) are floral and event designers and did a corporate party there, it was such a beautiful setting. When we went for the sight visit we had lunch there and everything was delicious! I am so enjoying your kitchen and butlers pantry renovation.
I'm always curious about hauntings... so yes, please share.
Wreath wallpaper is the best Loving everything your doing m
Oh ya for the haunted house. Linda, the house is going to be beautiful. It already is even with all the work being done. I love watching the progress.
Ohhhhh ghosts…. so exciting!! My Aunts’ 😮house was haunted . My mother who is a realist came out of my Aunts bathroom and a woman in a 1800’s gown was standing at the top of the steps. I said, mom what did you do!!! My mother said, I ran right through her down the step! Lol The ghost would play with my cousins when they were little. My Aunt would say to them, who are you talking to and they would say a nice lady was playing with them. The ghost would through things if upset. On and on. I’m just glad I never encountered her.
Oh and your Reno is looking better and better. I like how you think things out. That is great!
That's crazy! Just last night we were shown a photo, while at an inn/tavern a person took. In the photo, as if a real person, a woman in a white dress what in the photo. They say it was just children when they took the photo. THEN they found a photo from the 1800s. Almost the same photo angle. I woman in a white dress. I loved seeing that!
🙋🏻♀️I’m interested in hearing about the haunting!
Your home is so New England traditional. I love your home. I love the toile. It seems in keeping with your home's style. In the end you have to love and live with it.
Yes, would love to see proof. Thanks, Debra
Hello! The tavern is gorgeous, what fun! My favorite wallpaper is the one with the large repeating pattern, although as you mentioned, there’s a good possibility that the pattern is too large for the smaller area… I’ve done ghost hunting with a group off and on for many years, so yes, I would love to hear about any of your haunting experiences! Much affection from the city of Detroit!☺️
Yes on the haunted house. You may be able to spray the cleaner in a container then brush it on to lighten the beams. Oven cleaner strips paint. Be careful. The microwave change. is so much better. Makes sense.
Love your videos so much and am loving every moment of the remodel, but my greatest thrill in this video was seeing that beautiful restaurant! Around here there are no places that have anything that wonderful!!! Everything around my neck of the woods is so modern, industrial or just cold, plain ugly. I so wish I lived in New England, I'd eat out every night!
I so love your videos. I always hate when they end. You always leave me wanting more. I can't wait to see your kitchen and how I wish I had a butler's pantry. I would love to hear about the haunting of your other home. Please hurry back.
A haunting? ME! ME! ME!
Linda I love the Laurel wreath wall paper the best! You mentioned a place for vases, they are such a pain storing them! I must have ten large ones and ended up putting in attic since they are so big and definitely seasonal. Your kitchen is really coming together now starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel! And yes Groton house ghosts please share Kind Regards, Jan
Linda I think you need a contractor’s tool belt ! I love the way you trouble shoot !
Glad you went with 3 shelves. Perfect.
I made my husband watch this one. Look at everything they are doing! We can too! He agrees with me. We bought our house with the thought of improvement. Your videos are making us move forward in our own renovation so thank you! Love the pantry and especially the double oven!❤️
That is awesome! Enjoy the process!
I love watching all your remodeling of your home! I own a Cuisinart 14 cup food processor and I love it! I have had it about 4 years and never had any problems. I love it so much that if it does ever break I will be getting the same one again.
That is awesome!
I am really loving how your gorgeous home is coming together. I look forward to seeing your new videos,,,,oh yes please please,,,,,,tell us the story.....😁 Until next time..
Love seeing the progress on the kitchen and pantry. I would love any of the papers but I am drawn to the toile the most. Yes to the ghosts of the house-just not too spooky!
AGREE TOILE
Yay! The toile was ordered so that is what I’m going with if the color comes in correct
Oh, the mess...I would be beside my self...
The kitchen will be so nice in the end...wallpapers are all fabulous..my home is all blue, beigh,white..people say it is so soft...touches of pink and grey..
I use to have all jewel tones..many years...moved and bought all new everything, and went soft..love my new change..
Keep going my friend..very exciting to watch..
❤
Yes yes yes to hearing about haunted Groton house! Love seeing the progress in your kitchen.
Loved the update Linda, and the choices you’re making. They certainly don’t make anything to last more than a few years anymore 😫. Yes, I’d love to hear about Groton house being haunted 👻😁.
Loved the video. Yes, would love to hear about Groton house. 😊
I love your taste in wallpaper!
I get you girl! I loose my water bottles too! Yours is my fav channel!♥️♥️♥️
Yay! Thank you!
Multiple shallow shelves were a good decision. Nice you have that one item deep space behind the beautiful wood door in the butler’s pantry
So many wonderful pieces moving about in your kitchen❤️. I really would love to take a bomb to ours🤣. You have inspired me today! Thank you!!🌷
Love that restaurant you went to. The kitchen is coming along nicely. Love all the wallpaper designs. Would be hard to choose. God Bless.
Thanks so much! 😊 More wallpaper samples to come! These are just what I had laying around in my office
