      @Mapperton Live: Julie , you are a “living advertisement” for Yoga 🧘🏼‍♀️ and eating for health & wellness! I have never seen anyone as truly energetic and energizing ❤️!! Everything you are restoring there and, in Italy 🇮🇹 plus, just fitting in everyday life! I’m much older than you at 64 but, I know I would be aching in muscles and parts that I never realized existed if I had to do half of what you’ve done. Yoga obviously keeps you so limber and, your healthy diet keeps your weight from fluctuating up and down!
      If you weren’t so busy doing absolutely everything on two RUclips channels, I would love to see one of those “Everyday I Eat In A Day” videos all the American celebrities and models have been doing on RUclips. It’s frivolous but, I would love to know what someone healthy like you eats and does in a day!
      This was wonderful as always! “Hugs” from an American in the southern part of the USA 🇺🇸 ❤

    Could you cut the bookshelf to accommodate the window leaving shelves below the window and above and some shelf space to the right of the window thus making the window basically inside the shelving unit? This could be a unique feature that showcases the window but still gives you needed shelf space. I’m so impressed with you and your passion for this important project!

      Well, I believe his parents still own Mapperton and that Julie and him moved in to take care of the place. I don't doubt that they are well off but, the money it takes to maintain such an Estate, let alone the taxes, must still be a challenge. I'm just wondering HOW you would even know their finances....? It's one thing to plan and budget for certain projects but, when the unexpected repairs pop up, like the storm damage to those eagles, that kind of expense is still quite a dent.

    Beyond excited as I’ve just booked a visit to Mapperton for May and I can also visit my ancestral home of Beaminster. Perhaps I’ll see a few ancestors in the church graveyard. We have an old estate agent brochure for Mapperton when it was being sold in 1919. My family were farmers in the area and it looked like they were possibly going to buy one of the farms when the estate was being sold.

    Is your scanning operation being conducted in the muniment room? How are you handling the fumes and heat put off by the electronics? Just airing the room out after spotting for the day? If the chimney is operational is there a flue to decrease outside air infiltration? What has been done to the windows besides curtains to counter the infiltration of fading light rays or excessive heat/cold?

    • @AnnieWarbux

      Don't forget she was a Chicagolander... she has more fresh air in England than we've Ever had in Chicagoland, since the industrial revolution! It's a big drafty house and chapel so, she should be ok.

    • @taiikomochiyuurichin1459
      @taiikomochiyuurichin1459 Год назад +1

      Not to belabor the string, but remember, it was all the elements put into the air by people and industrialization that contributed to the degradation of the tapestries, curtains and upholstery. The fumes put off by things, particularly oil based put things into the air that can affect the condition of things. Chernobyl affected more than just the former Soviet Union. Personally, I moved into an apartment 14 years ago and the exhaust put off by all the electronics and cooking has made it that i have yet to turn on the heating system. If you want to maintain your archives in as safe an environment as possible even what you think is "clean" air not be so great. Additionally, moisture and paper do not always mix so when the humidity rises or mold gets introduced. Just a few things to be aware that others may not.

    Well Done Julie and Crew! The archive room looks amazing. One would never know about all the challenges you faced before even starting the painting.
    I wonder if there is such a thing as Preventive Maintenance being practiced at Mapperton. I ask because I used to work at an hotel in the Caribbean. Obviously the place was no where near the age, size, and or similarity to your place. Having the hotel very near the sea was rather challenging. We constantly were replacing corroded metal hardware, pipes, etc. Humidity was another challenge, dry rot,as was painting the exterior of the villas. To start with, the program seemed like a no go. But once the employees and management accepted that this was part of a new Strategic Plan to save the hotel. Before long each week as Management and Maintenace did a 'walk about'...it was pin-pointed that certain things/items needed to be placed on the list, the priorities, etc. etc. Please forgive my presumption that you might want this suggestion. 🙏✨
