I think this was a huge blessing for Ben and Erin to be able to do this project. They got to use materials they don't normally use and it was so sweet seeing how excited they were about the floors and such. So precious.
The owner of this house is so precious. I pray he lives long and enjoys his paradise! When Erin put the picture of his father on the bookshelf...tears filled my eyes. Good job Ben and Erin!!!
Erin & Ben~ “ just because you can spend money, doesn’t mean you should😊❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️” I love this philosophy and I love both of you. In my book, the two of you are definitely the two best designers in the world. ERIN: you think outside the box and create a vision like no one else does and it comes alive right before you and Ben’s hands- TRULY SPECTAACULAR❣️❣️❣️❣️ BEN:Your hands create 24 foot dining room tables for families Which Dine together every Sunday together and you can carve or hand tool/lathe the LEGS For the first time for the family and it turns out amazing; you make a fireplace and mantle out of refurbished wood and turn it into a masterpiece; you create little boys bunkbeds and trundle beds like no one has ever done or seen before, Due to a families special needs and the result brings tears to everyone’s eyes… The reason you guys are so successful is because you LISTEN
John had such a great personality!! Covering his eyes, when he said "HOLA!", etc. It's just heartbreaking that he never even got to live there. From what I heard, he was a very wealthy, but also very generous man.
Wow does that remind you of the rich man who built big silos to hold his crops so he could rest and enjoy life and God says, "Tonight you will die." Modern parable here. This guy seemed really nice though.
@@Somewhereintime22 Unfortunately he didn't. Due to health issues and the Pandemic he didn't get to return and spend time in the home. It was left to a friend who couldn't afford to travel and/or move there, or maintain it. They eventually sold it.
They gave the owner what he wanted and were mindful of saving some of the nice things for others and repurposed some things for the owner and did not blow the budget, great job!
Erin and Ben~ I love the two of you together and in my opinion, you are the very best interior designers and Wood carvers carpenters in the world. Yes there’s a lot of great interior designers and husband and wife and designer teams that work together but they don’t have the visions that the two of you together come up with.… Hands-down❣️❣️ there’s another couple I love but I just cannot give them the praise that the two of you personalize to the families that you do every time over and over in such unique ways… The hand carved fireplaces the 24 foot handmade dining tables for a family that dines together every weekend and for every holiday; the handmade bed sets for Children with special needs and also unique visions that nobody else is doing ..♥️♥️ & Erin, You have such design visions like no one else I know in the business and you take such amazing chances and you and Ben bounce those ideas off each other together, creating something totally amazing for the new homeowners and we are all blown away as your magic comes together. Each time you complete a home I think you’re not going to out do you yourself and this time this is the very best you can do and then you wave your magic wands and tools and designs, and you come yo With something even better and greater than before ❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️ No!😊❣️❣️I don’t know how you do it💕 again and again, but the two of you do it and you create more magic and more beauty and more love in each home for the people that move into your beautiful homes and the community of Waco and beyond, creating JOY and LOVE!! God bless You Both to create so much happiness everywhere you go!!God has truly blessed you both. Thank you for everything you do for all of us. It is a joy to watch you create😊❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️♥️♥️♥️♥️😊
Each time. Ben & Erin, I think to myself, now this is the very best you can do! And then you are do yourself can you make me a liar.! But look at this house you just did!! Erin, the visions you have & Ben, The craftsmanship you continue to show with your woodworking is just beyond belief as you continue to personalize each and every home you build and renovate… From 24 foot dining tables 2 carved fireplace mantle‘s and personalized children’s bedrooms with items they could get nowhere else in this world❣️❣️ The two of you make such a dynamite team I don’t think anybody could ever beat you❣️❣️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ I truly love you and yes there are other great designers who I appreciate but I love you 2 Designers are the BEST TEAM TOGETHER EVER😊❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️♥️♥️♥️♥️
I think this is still my favorite episode. I heard John passed and I wish I knew him cause he seemed so full of life. May he rest in peace and I hope this lovely home went to someone he loved who love and care for it.
I wonder who bought it and lives there now. John left it to a friend who although was grateful, was unable to afford to travel there and live in it even part-time or maintain it. They eventually sold it.
@@nogames8982Yes, when the show originally aired, it mentioned during the credits that he had died. I loved his attitude about money. You can't take it with you.
I was thinking the same thing. I really liked this one because it showed a more modern, contemporary home vs the cottages. Nice man too. I'd make him a sandwich.
I LOVED THIS EPISODE!! John was such a special soul. It's heartbreaking to watch it now knowing he was never able to actually return and enjoy his home. R.I.E.P. JOHN... gone but not forgotten! 😇🕊️🕊️

I found that a little odd too, but the clay colored tile would have looked strange inside the shower and the black and white tile didn't have the warmth they were looking for. Which one would you have preferred?
He passed away not too long after this was filmed. Due to the Pandemic and health issues he didn't get a chance to return and enjoy the home. It was left to a friend and eventually sold.
Amazing job!!! One quick question, did you guys change the windows or have the frame color changed to black. I am actually curious about the grid in the windows.
I love this home, but have to ask what is with the very small windows to the side of the main entrance.I see these small windows in a lot of homes in the US and they are ugly. I would have made these full length windows to give balance.
These windows are probably bathroom and closet windows. It's way more practical to have smaller windows in these rooms, for privacy and layout reasons. Sometimes you have to make a compromise between design and functionality. I don't think they are that ugly like you describe it, but everybody has a different taste 🤷♀️
@@dako6082 in Australia it is common to have the bathrooms at the side of your home, so the houses from the front look more balanced, even with smaller windows I’d hate to have a bathroom at the front of the house I’d feel uncomfortable . But I guess it’s what you have been brought with.
I think this is the first time I am really not impressed because when you have an unlimited budget it looks to me that it limits their imagination and craftsmanship
Presupuesto ilimitado y han hecho "esto"???? Malísimo! Claro q se ve bien, sin embargo, dista mucho de ser lo que podría haber sido con ese presupuesto! Mejor q se dediquen a bajos presupuestos o a aprender!
THIS HOUSE IS FUN - USUALLY WE JUST DO an 1800 SF craftsman cottage with 1 bathroom:"there's only so much you can do" YAWN. BORING. ... well some of us who can't afford that would be blessed beyond measure to have it. And make sure to get someone else to remodel it since you guys are tired of those stupid houses.

What a magnificent renovation!! I love how you repurpose wood into such beautiful furniture. You guys are fantastic.
PS I love crying men! 😂

The homeowner passed away shortly after this renovation. So sad. 🖤

Took this well built house too a new level. I bet he loved it!
RIP John
I wonder who lives there now
The homeowner died? Wow that’s so sad. I hope he got to enjoy it for a while before he passed.
@@Somewhereintime22 Yeah, he passed away a few months after this project

:( That's so sad!

I love how Erin and Ben do the whole house😍
I never met him. You just love him. GREAT FUNNY PERSONALITY PLUS, HE LOVED HIS DAD. I TOO WOULD OF LOVED TO HAVE MET THIS MAN. HE LOVED LIFE.
I saw this episode before but still my favorite, he looks like he could be a great dad.
I was thinking the same thing. I really liked this one because it showed a more modern, contemporary home vs the cottages. Nice man too. I'd make him a sandwich.
Totally awesome transformation! Absolutely stunning home, to make a lifetime of memories.
I thought I was the only one who said “holy schnikies”! Wow! Gorgeous home!

I just LOVE THIS COUPLE. THEY ARE VERY CREATIVE AND SAVE A LOT OF MATERIAL AND CREATE VERY NICE PIECES FOR THE HOMES THEY WORK ON 😀 😊
I loved this guy. So sad he had to leave so soon after this.
Wow great video lovely turn around 😍. enjoyed.
Oh I loved those glass doors that were there where they put the bar thing but ofcourse the house is amazing .
The day after Pearl Habour, Patriot!
Uau! A parte externa ficou deliciosamente linda. A reforma deixou o proprietário satisfeito, logo, é o quê importa. 👏👏👏
He seems an amazing man
absolutely beautiful...... South Africa
Great renovation

Looking good the only thing is the two different tile in the bathroom I would of went with one or the other
I found that a little odd too, but the clay colored tile would have looked strange inside the shower and the black and white tile didn't have the warmth they were looking for. Which one would you have preferred?
Masterpiece 😮
That backyard❤❤
My favorite show
I Love it!
Is he married??!

A dre home! Nice job!
Awesome!
Que casa maravilhosa 🤗🇧🇷🤗🌸
So, how much did the reno cost?
$349,000.
😍 Party shower!!
can i get the plan of this house , please?
If my Son would just at least Paint the House...its Embarrassing!!! 😭 Help...
For 349k you can get a closet in NYC.

Havent seen them on tv lately
I can't believe they had an unlimited budget and did that😢😢
I don't blame them for crossing the yard when sidewalk is so far from the door.
Sweet
Black is going to show every speck of dust
They waste so many good materials in the homes while renovating 😵💫😵💫 I hate it
I think this is the first time I am really not impressed because when you have an unlimited budget it looks to me that it limits their imagination and craftsmanship
What about the sofa table Ben designed and made?

Don't like this job despite the budget.
