2 YEARS (in 7 minutes) -- TURNING AN OLD SCHOOL into OUR HOUSE
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 24 окт 2023
- It’s been 2 years since we bought this 100-year-old school. Looking back at all the renovations and progress we’ve made feels a bit wild. It takes SO much energy to restore these old buildings, and we’ve learned so much already.
When we bought the school we were in NYC. Last year we spent a year living in Philadelphia for Sean’s work. Currently we’re living with our amazing parents with the toddlers, and it’s amazing being nearby and watching the final stages of this beautiful building become a home for our family.

I don't think I have ever passed an old brick school building without wondering why it hadn't been turned into an apartment house. Schools already have gyms, cafeterias, and auditoriums which could be turned into communal dining, workout areas, and community gathering places. It's cool to see people saving and utilizing these old buildings.
Syracuse NY has a bunch of them where I grew up. Here in Oregon many have been turned into community rec centers.
One of the old schools in my town was turned into condos the other was turned into a theater with a small restaurant in it. Also when our new hospital opened in 2015 they sold the old building and the developer turned it into senior and low income housing. I like when they use the buildings for something vs letting them rot.
This is amazing. I am so happy to come across this video today. I just subscribed. I hope you get a million subscribers. I love seeing these old buildings brought back to life. 👍😀
Reuse for residential is often far more expensive than just blading it under and starting over. Between the EPA and ADA and fire regulations, you really need either a major government grant or a superprime location to make it work economically. As with tiny homes and container homes, what seems like an obvious solution usually isn’t quite so simple.
Some actually have been turned into apartments. I grew up in one in Hopewell NJ. It was a high school from 1880 to 1929. It was turned into an apartment building starting in the 30's and has been so ever since. It was very similar to the school in this video, except it's made of white stucco instead of brick and it's about twice the size of it. It has eight units, four on the bottom and four on the top.
As a contractor I appreciate you giving props to your contractors! They work so hard and rarely get the recognition they deserve! I’m excited to see the results! Best of luck to you
@@immichaelwayne8285no it’s not. My dad’s a contractor and he gets paid peanuts and sometimes just breaks even once it’s all said and done on houses, due to Karen’s. There’s a lot of people he’s dealt with, that he ain’t paid near enough to deal with their stupid ends. Getting a license to build is hard to pass and expensive. And that was 20 years ago. Idk what it’s like now. So no, contractors that are honest don’t get paid enough.
@@immichaelwayne8285 Recognition doesn't necessarily translate to wealth. You might earn $100 for a job, but the recognition and praise you get can be worth much more than the monetary compensation. So no, money isn't enough.
God has pronounced that the penalty of sin
Even committing just one sin, would make you liable To spiritual death and separation from God for all of eternity in a place of judgment called Hell.
And We’ve all sinned and fallen short of the glory of God: (“Roman’s 3:23”)
We all deserve Gods judgment
All of us like sheep have gone astray, We have turned, each one, to his own way; But the LORD has caused the wickedness of us all [our sin, our injustice, our wrongdoing] To fall on Him [instead of us].
: “For the wages of sin is death”
BUT the free gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord.”
(Romans 6:23)
But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
(Romans 5:8)
He took our punishment death! and took it on the cross and gave up his life
For us on the cross of Carvery that we may be reconciled to the father Making a way through Himself
Christ died and raises again on the 3rd day for our justification so that God can be both just and the justifier of the one who places their faith in Jesus Christ so that all those who come to Christ may enter in, so that all those who place their faith in Christ Jesus may be saved (John 3:16)
but not only just saved but sanctified and justified and adopted into the family of God
we’re further sanctified throughout this life by the very same gospel that saved us, until one day when it’s all said and done we’re not just saved from the penalty of sin we’re not just saved from the power of sin but one day were gonna be glorified and saved from the very presence of sin this is the good news.
Right now this very moment God is calling you
From the darkness and into his marvelous light
Seek Him and you shall find Him
Repent change your mind about sin turn from your sins and ask God to forgive you He can wash you and cleanse you and Give you a new life through His Son giving up His life for you
1 John 1:9-10
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
1 Timothy 2:4-6
God wants everyone to be saved and to fully understand the truth. There is only one God, and there is only one way that people can reach God. That way is through Christ Jesus, who as a man gave himself to pay for everyone to be free. This is the message that was given to us at just the right time.
Right because a lot of times, people want you to believe they did all of the work themselves
it might have to do with the fact for every good contractor there are 9 bad contractors.
Y'all, that won't be a house, it'll be an absolute mansion. What a blessing to be able to take on that project and restore a piece of history in your hometown. Super cool.
It's always gratifying to find someone who wants to renovate rather than demolish. Two thumbs up.
Ya’ll obviously aren’t broke and have money.
Had to be hundreds of thousands for the windows alone…
I’m 100% jealous of what you’ve been able to accomplish.
Wishing I could scrounge up enough money to take on an old building like that. I love historical buildings and it’s so sad watching their demise from lack of love and up-keep. Thanks for bringing that old gem back from the dead.
It will stand as a symbol of segregation and racist hatred of children for another hundred years.
The more of these videos of people fixing up old buildings I watch, the more I realize that the big secret to doing it is really just money.
I don't think anybody thought it was a secret. It's not about not having any money and doing it. It's about the project being unique
Not jealous, even though I would like to do this, but with an old church. However, I'm also very satisfied with the small cottage we have.
It's fun to see the before and after projects.
You're living my dream. I have always wanted to buy an old school and fix it up to live in. That's not gonna happen, so I will just sit back and enjoy it vicariously. LOL My late husband's aunt & uncle raised 8 kids in an old converted schoolhouse, and I thought it was a WONDERFUL place!!
You might consider an old church. Sadly, there are more and more of those where the congregation has dwindled and has to sell the church building. The church property might also be already zoned residential.
@@rebeccaharrison2968 I forgot about the zoning! We have looked at old churches, but there aren't any in our area for sale right now. But that could change!! 🙂
@@OHlookSHINYthing I wish you the best!
My dear friend bought a former school in SW Quebec and they had 9 kids…I unfortunately never got to see it. These old schools are great if you have many kiddos.
SAME! Still holding on to hope! 😊
My daughter used to live in an old high school that was converted into apartments. The lockers were left in the hallway and her place came complete with a huge blackboard that everyone wrote on! One apartment was in the front office and I think the bedroom was actually in the principals office. So unique. Bass Lofts in Atlanta, GA.
So cool, I am jealous.
I dont understand how a small family can live in a place that big. The space is overwhelming. But I wish you happiness and success in all ways in your choices.
I agree and my mind boggles at the heating costs and keeping it clean! 😮 I think I preferred the idea of it divided into two properties and I would rent one out for income.
Maybe they can rent out the basement to cover some of the renovation costs?
Or maybe their parents would live there also?
Maybe they just like a lot of space. I’d love to have that much square footage.
It's going to be 4 families living in that school house
I love it when people give old buildings new life.
I just discovered your site and am relieved to see that we are not the only folks with BIG ideas. You are doing a lovely job and you will love the results. Almost 20 years ago we bought a 4-story, 25 room abbey from the Catholic church here in Germany. We only had to replace 47 windows, but since the building a historical protected site we had to have custom wooden-framed windows made and installed. I laid over 1000 sq ft of oak flooring and my wife plastered all of the walls in the house! We have replaced the oil central heating system and had major repairs made to the roof. There are a number of videos about the work we did on our RUclips site. Good luck on your amazing endeavour.
That is amazing!!! Great job!!!
@@vmuz3516 Thank you. 😊
Can you post your RUclips channel?!!!! I would LOVE to check it out!!!
@@jenns6063 Gladly, it is ruclips.net/user/Broo44videos
Just checked your RUclips videos and they’re very wholesome I just subscribed! May God bless you and your wife always 🙏🏼
I love the old giant double hung windows that were in schools. I remember the teacher walking from window to window with a long pole with a hook on the end, as she opened the upper windows. Still remember the sound as the windows were opened.
My parents remodeled my mom’s old high school when I was a kid, and we lived in it for 10 yrs. Funnest childhood ever.
Can I just say I’m only 2 minutes in and you have captivated me with not only this tiny school’s history and charm but your own life as well! The way you edited and made this video is impeccable! The perfect pace, love all the real life video and photo you’re showing, interesting, easy to follow, and somewhat calming😂I love everything about this video so far!!
I love watching old buildings given a facelift and life!
So many times I've passed old schools that have lovely architecture but have been abandoned and have thought to myself that it would be wonderful to repurpose it into a home! It is wonderful that you're doing this! I look forward to seeing more!
This is amazing. The restoration alone will be a boon to your home town. I wonder what you found tucked away under floorboards and walls. While renovating one of the active schools I work at, we found a wall that wad been converted to a blackboard and had lesson notes from 1965!
They found a hidden room.
That would've been sweet.. You find anything else in there that was cool ??
@C.Brown5150 nothing else really. We left it and covered it back up to preserve it
This is so neat. I immediately had a "This building looks very familiar" moment, only to realize it is only a couple of counties away. I love these old school buildings and sweet little country churches here in Indiana. I am so happy to see you lovingly making this into your home. Your wee ones are simply precious too. Blessing to your family.
I'm so thankful for those who have the will and the skill to save these old historic buildings. I wish there was more conservation. Thank you so much for saving that historic gem.🤗👍
I love how you give credit where credit is due. I also LOVE the way you and your husband have taken on a project to preserve something so incredible into repurposing for the future.
I grew up in Johnson Co and drove past that school many times. I'm glad to see it revived/repurposed into something it deserves. You're doing an outstanding job and I look forward to seeing up coming progress!
Thank you! Also small world!
It’s wonderful to see you restore a piece of history 🥳
People think my husband and I are crazy to renovate old buildings, but glad to see another comrade investing in history and grit! It’s worth it! Congratulations!
This is soooo cool!! And I'm sure the people who built this school are smiling down from heaven, happy that the school will now become a home to a lovely family 👍
Wow, that's really sweet.. I live in Indiana also , Westfield, Ind.. I've always wanted a old small School or Firehouse... I'm glad that you guys aren't only restoring a fantastic building and making it your home. But you're saving a piece of Indiana History , that would've other wise just been forgotten and left there rotting away one day at a time.. All things considered , you've come a long way and it shows.. I wish you all the best as you continue to move forward.. May the Hand's of God himself cover your family and your home.🙏
Hope the "school" is all the home you can imagine. Such a cool idea. One suggestion: I noticed what looked like corrugated pipe going in, possibly for downspout drainage? That type of drain piping is well known for clogging and/or collapsing. SCH-40 PVC piping, while more expensive, would be a much better solution. I've had mine for 15-20 years and it's never had an issue. Any leaves, etc. going through it simply washes out the end.
So nice to see you keeping as much original elements as possible, sourcing historic items, and buying new items to bring back the original look. It's going to be amazing when it's all done!
I love to see old buildings rehabed instead of demolished. Thanks and congratulations!
Hey hey! SO glad to see this, this morning. Your work on putting together these videos is definitely worthwhile. Your family will enjoy revisiting the process and you have yourself a little community here that very much appreciates and enjoys. Can't wait for the next one!
Hello from Bloomington Indiana! I've driven past your school before and I think it's so awesome that you're making it into a home.
Thank you so much for sharing this with the public. I grew up in Edinburgh and went to Union Church just down the road from the school building. Pretty sure my grandfather went to the school and I recognize the family names of some others in the class pictures you showed.
Like you I had always wondered what the building looked like on the inside as it was just boarded up then. Best of luck as you continue this big project to completion!
Oh wow I need to add you to our future open house list! And dm me your email, I have more pics from the museum, maybe your grandfather is in one! (Schoolhousestacie @ gmail)
@@SchoolhousehomesteadThanks! I will send you my email. Turns out my grandfather went to the Nineveh school instead but it would still be great to get to see inside.
What an absolute amazing story! I love these old brick buildings. I love the idea that they are repurposed for new generations. What a journey!!! I'm excited to follow the rest.
Love seeing old abandoned buildings find a new purpose!
In our throw away obsessed world we live in today. It's a Great Joy fer a ole man to see a young couple take something from days gone by and turn it into what they want it to be!!! All the while keeping it it to be what it was also and not just knocking it down, tearing it up or hauling it away!!! Thank you and Keep up the Good Work!!!!
Thank you so much!!
That's such an *AMAZING* accomplishment!!!
Congratulations to you and your beautiful family. It's incredible.❤!!!
Love that you fell into my feed! Your old school is lovely! I’m an American living in SW France. My friend and her husband bought a château and vineyard about 30 years ago. They raised 4 kids and make the most delicious wine. Their 3 year old grandson loves to “help” with harvest and anytime the tractors are in use!
Oh I LOVE watching all the chateau renovations!! I subscribe to so many here on RUclips. A school is about the closest thing to a chateau here in the US, hahaha
My house is in a village of 800 and we think it was built in the 1850’s. We did not do the renovations as we are NOT handy. Plus, we moved in 6 weeks before Covid lockdown so we were happy to have everything settled.
Wow, wow, wow. That is amazing the amount of work you have done. What an incredible house you will all have. Can’t wait to see future videos. Thank You for documenting this. 👍👍
Good for you. I love it when people restore and repurpose old buildings/houses. 😊😊😊
This is so cool...luve to see an old building being redone and not torn down. There is a reason it is still standing.
In 2015 my husband and I sold everything we owned, bought a derelict schoolhouse in rural northwestern ireland (online, without ever seeing it) and moved from NYC into a construction site….
Your school is ENORMOUS. The scale of your project is a hundred times the scale of ours - but I think we may have a lot of things in common.
It’s changed everything in our lives, and we wouldn’t have it any other way. It’s not for everyone, as ireland is so much more, and so much less than you would believe possible. Our schoolhouse was built in 1891, and is an old stone building which we gutted and redesigned into a very comfortable place to live. (Turns out we inadvertently bought a historic landmark building, but this is for another day - the Coracloon School House )
I wish you joy and success in bending your schoolhouse into a shape that will work well for your family. These old buildings were built to last the ages, but were designed as municipal buildings, and don’t surrender easily.
With your high ceilings, the building will be cool in summer - but come winter? We have a big ceiling fan to blow the warm air down from the upper floor, back to the main living area. It makes a difference. - as the cost of our energy bills are the biggest expense we have.
Be well, enjoy the chaos!
omg I am in love ❤ What a unique home you are creating. You are putting your own work - blood sweat and tears into this, and this home will be able to be passed down through the ages. I love it!!
I love history, I love old homes and I love living in Indiana. Found this video after RUclips referred me this way and this video is sooo cool. Thank you so much for not only restoring this beautiful building, but for taking the time in editing and putting this video together. Also kudos to the contractors and the amazing work they're helping you do.
I just found this video. Now I CANNOT WAIT to see more!,
In 1989 my parents moved us from cedar park,Texas to Holdenville, Oklahoma. We had a beautiful ranch style home they had built throughout the 80’s. Mom didn’t want a freeway behind the house so we moved to be near family. They bought the 1934 Children’s Hospital in Holdenville. It was an abandoned building at the time and had been used for various activities over the years from vandals to those who like to empty their bowels on private properties. This video brought back so many memories of tearing down plaster walls and scraping tile off hardwood floors. Eventually the almost 6,000 sq. ft. home was finished. Sadly, mom got sick with ms in the late 90’s and dads diabetes became too much for him. He died in 2016 and mom passed in in 2020. Alone in the hospital. My sister had been renovating the home and had just replaced all the windows and spent over 100 grand in remodeling when the house burned down. But she then bought the old Bank N.A. building and has turned that into her home now. There are so many beautiful abandoned buildings in rural America. Thank you for sharing your progress.
This is fabulous! What an amazing experience for your children as well.
My childhood school in Deep Sourh was so much like this but much larger. It burned with a vengeance after school district and potential buyers had a back and forth about it. The latter wanted to create sr apts in it, exposing the old wood etc like you did, add gardens etc. as a nearby community has done. I am so excited to see a young family doing something like this! Subscribed as I want to see how it turns out!
Love the fact you’ve used the original doors also the floor mosaic will look fantastic. Stunning building….. you guys are very blessed.
Oh to be this rich
The amount of hard work is mind boggling. The dedication is Herculean. All worth it because of the humongous potential comfort of such a large space. My only suggestion would be to consider combining two of the three kids’ bedrooms in order to produce a “good” square footage since “young uns” like to spend time away from a rest of the family when they get to be a certain age.
Great job and it’s only going to get more rewarding as you move ahead. 👍
Not to mention that through that whole process, she was either pregnant or caring for a toddler/newborn! Has my respect for sure.
Awesome video! I am in Northeastern Minnesota & I grew up in a house built on the foundation of an old mining community school - the Malta School in Sparta. My great grandfather bought the school in the 1950s & because it was a huge building, they tore down the main school structure & built the house on most of the foundation - you can see the outline of the old foundation in the yard next to the garage (it's about the size of a two stall garage & the underground fuel oil tank is buried in it). I grew up with the original chalkboards on the basement walls, we had old desks, the old hand washing sinks, etc. The boiler room was in what is now a garage. The old bell housing was our sandbox playhouse. Our yard is huge - the community skating rink was in our yard & it's probably the size of two or three blocks in town. We even had a huge section of pine trees & a huge garden next to the rink & two mobile homes at times. I have only seen one old photo of the school before it was made into the house.
We actually have several old school buildings on the Iron Range that are for sale & several have been taken down in recent years. The school my grandma, her brother, my dad & his 4 sisters, my older brother & sister & I went to is supposed to be demolished in December - they took down part of it already. The smaller school my grandpa attended through 8th grade is another one that's been waiting for a buyer too. It's a beautiful building that's near my great grandparents farm about 25 miles from my parents house (my grandparents lived across from my parents & their yard was even bigger). I live a couple houses away from the high school I graduated from in 1990 & it will also come down soon. In the early 1900s, the various mining companies donated the funds to build huge brick & marble schools in most of the towns here on the Iron Range & many are vacant or gone because as the population started dropping 50 or so years ago, the school districts couldn't properly maintain a huge brick building (or multiple buildings) properly & they started to get worse as years went on. The schools started merging/consolidating before I was born 50+ years ago & that usually meant that buildings in one town were abandoned. I started school in Gilbert & we merged with Eveleth when I was in 9th grade in 1986 - they used buildings in both towns since, but Eveleth's old Junior High building sat vacant ever since until they demolished it a few years ago. Eveleth even closed their industrial arts building a couple decades ago & it recently came down (it was the first building my dad taught welding in). Eveleth -Gilbert merged with Virginia to create the new Rock Ridge district several years ago & it was cheaper to build 3 new buildings (a joint jr/sr high building & 2 elementary buildings) than to fix up a few of the 100+ year old buildings. Thankfully, the organizers included a deadline & funding to demolish the old unused buildings in the new school plans! It's sad to see them come down, but it was worse to see them sit vacant & crumble over decades.
The state of Minnesota has been giving funds & incentives for the smaller outstate school districts to merge with nearby schools & build modern school buildings so every student in the state gets the same tools for education that the Twin Cities Metro area kids have. It's a great program, but it's controversial because people who graduated decades ago & haven't stepped foot in the old buildings for decades are very vocal about their sentimental connections. Unfortunately, the maintenance & refurbishment costs are barriers for any interested buyers of the old school buildings too.
I am so glad that you are able to save your old school building! I am sure your community members are too! Good luck!
I appreciated reading your story. Thank you.
I LOVE it when old buildings are saved. Thank you!
That’s awesome, I’d have my parents living with us. Your home is going to be stunning. ❤
I can’t imagine what this old building will cost to heat in the winter 🥶
More please! Love this Lifestyles of the clever & gritty! I lived in an apartment that had been a former school, great high ceilings and a sturdy exterior! Thanks for sharing!
I also grew up in Franklin and I'm so glad someone purchased this school to give it the love it needs. I hope that it houses all your family's love for many many years to come!
What an awesome dream project!!! Thank you for caring and preserving a beautiful old building!! 🥰
This looks amazing! This is my absolute dream to do something like this! I can't wait to see the house finished!
I was stopped in my tracks when I saw this old building! It's a twin to my old school in Millbach, PA, where I attended all my school years! It had its start as a public school but has been a private Christian day school for many years now & still going strong. Your video was fascinating to see how you could change this into your home! You get an A+ for all your hard work!
Hearing your history and the connection to the school just made me cry. So cool. Thank you for saving it.
I love to see people learn to make something old into something new instead of throwing it away and replacing it with cheap materials that will break down in 10 years
First. I have to say, you have a very pleasant voice to listen too. You could have been a DJ.
Now, for what you and your family are doing, my mind just spins thinking about trying to organize such a project.
How in the world do you care for 2 children, that in itself is a full time job, then the 2 of you take on a 9000 sq ft School/Home.
I totally admire your fortitude, because many would want to jump ship, the moment something like the windows had to be taken care of.
I'm subbing the Channel, because no way do I want to miss seeing this project going forward. Honestly, I wish you the best in all your endeavors.
Determination full tilt, amazing!!!
What an amazing project! It's a beautiful marriage between saving an historic building -- and honoring its original purpose -- and putting it to a new and wonderful use. Looking forward to seeing the rest of the project unfold.
This was a very well presented and thorough quick rundown of all the hard work and progress you've made in turning this Country School into a home. You have a lovely family. I have to admire your tenacity. It's obviously inherited from your parents. So sweet you have loving parents who helped you get this project underway. The surrounding areas are beautiful. Can't wait to see more. ❤
FIRST: Way to Humanize the contractors!! Rarely happens, I always see them villainized for delays, issues, costs etc.
SECOND: I love watching this! I want to do this soo bad and you really show the hard parts as well as the good parts! I am inspired!
Wow, great video.
An old friend of mine moved into an old school in a small town in Minnesota but it was less than half the size of yours, and being a working artist, I'm sure he kept it very wabi-sabi... 😅
I especially loved the background music -- had a very Blood Sweat And Tears, "Owl And The Pussycat" movie soundtrack vibe...
May your home continue to blossom in its new incarnation... ❤
Love that you’re doing this and keeping a piece of history. What a great place for your family to live!
What a wonderful project turning an old school into a real home in which to raise a family. It must be gratifying to see it come together. I look forward to future videos on the progress. Thanks for sharing. Have a Blessed day.
I subbed so I can keep up with your progress.. Beautiful place.. if you don't mind me asking, how much did you have to pay for the school.. So many places like this still around that are caving in.. Glad you got this one before it's to late... Take care and God Bless....
We paid 175k to buy it! And thanks for the kind words!
Would you please turn trump towers in New York City into housing for our veterans. 😊
There’s an old school in town here that’s been made into apartments .. it’s much smaller than this building, but the same energy that goes with these old buildings, schools and here, mills and factories from 100 years ago 😍 they are just incredible..
Nothing comes close to the airy feel and the HUGE windows..
I’ve always always loved them..
You’re very lucky to be able to make such a great place your own!
So wonderful!
Looking forward to seeing how things turn out.. !
Hi, this is so awesome and thanks for the update. We live in Indiana as well, west central area (Fountain County). I can't wait to see the next update! Stay safe and well. Merry Christmas!
Thank you for taking all of us your families journey with your beautiful home. I love what you’re doing
I absolutely love projects like this; painful as they can be, they are immensely satisfying when you see the history you're revealing...
Thanks for taking the time, effort, trouble, and love to make this beautiful and historically significant building your home...giving it "life"...❤
How super cool! The preservation of these historic buildings warms my heart. Thank you for sharing this huge adventure!
Amazing to see what you started with and what you are doing. It's great to see a building like this being resurrected to live on again. Keep up the good work. I look forward to following your progress.
So glad to see you restoring this lovely old building! I'm sure you will be happy with it when you are finished.
Before I even started watching, I knew it was in Indiana! My father went to a school like this in Shelbyville! Shelbyville was always our stopping point between assignments. My dad was a pilot in the Air Force and we called it home, my aunt and uncle still lived there. Indiana will always hold a very special place in my heart. Going to love watching your home grow. Truly, Mimi Lewis
So close to us!! And thank you!
So wonderful. So, truly wonderful! Love your story as much as the building.
What a very cool story! Thank you for sharing and what a beautiful family.
Beautiful I applaud you with uour children and family project thank you for remodeling the school
Beautiful! I love that you took it to bare bones, and are taking care of things the right way! What an adventure!
Just saw a quick video over on Facebook and immediately came to youtube to look for your channel. Going to thoroughly enjoy watching from the beginning!! Can't even begin to imagine what it took to do all this.
This is so exciting!!!! Thank you for sharing this amazing journey with us and I look forward to more video updates of this magnificent endeavor.🙌🏾👍🏾
Amazing! So inspiring to hear your journey! It’s so good to see you doing it right! I appreciate your work…love,love,love old buildings and you saved one!
Thank you for restoring this building that will be your home. That is really cool what you guys did.
This is going to be so cool to see when it’s complete! I’m glad I stumbled across your video. I love old buildings/homes.
Wow! You guys are brave! Can’t wait to see the finish product. Your new home! 👏🇨🇦
Fantastic! So great that you are giving old bones new life and sharing the beauty and process of it.
I really enjoy this... what a fascinating, wonderful project! She has a fabulous voice and the details she identifies are so interesting. A beautiful family and future home! CONGRATULATIONS!!!
Wow, you are brave souls! Congrats on a beautiful building and two adorable kids ❤️ Your presentation is very well done.
Thank you for saving this building. I hope you love your home.
My hats off to you. Incredible endeavor. Our home is painted sea foam green inside and it is so refreshing. A splash of color minus the overwhelming sensation.
I totally ENJOYED your story! Can’t wait to see it all pull together!
Something like this was quality made and so worth restoring. Bless you for bringing it back to a place to enjoy!❤
Congratulations on purchasing this lovely property and Best wishes on the renovations
How FUN! Lotta work, but gratifying! What a way to honor those who came before, as you grow into the future with your family. I look forward to being apart of this journey and seeing how this project evolves. Many blessings be with you guys, and to all the amazing craftsmen working so hard to manifest this vision for you all. So good. Love channels like this. Thanks for making a positive difference in this world.
Thank you for sharing. What an amazing project, cant wait to see more 👏
