    It's wild how far it's come in the short time you've had it! It's gorgeous! I agree about the water stains. You were the best person for this house, Brian. I can't wait to see it come along. Your video skills this time were great. I felt like I was just walking around with a friend showing me their new house. Keep it up!

    You are too tough on yourself. We love your videos and narration style. Its just amazing how much you've accomplished in such a short time. Before your followers know it, it'll be Christmas and we'll be dazzled all over again by your fabulous decorations.

    I love that you took out that new crystal chandelier. It did not belong there in that hallway. The hanging light you put in fits so much better! Thank you for being this homes steward!

    The house looks amazing! What’s crazy is you’re not there full time yet it looks as if you’ve been there every day, working non stop. What’s also great is how much the furniture just fits right in place, as if it was meant to be in that house. Love it!! Can’t wait for the next update.

    TV solution: The chest of drawers in the upper hall goes into the den with the TV above it and the armoire in the den goes upstairs into the upper hall.
    PS It's really cool that you're from Shelby. My High school orchestra used to do a Spring Fling concert every year visiting back and forth between our high schools. Each of us would host a Shelby kid at our house like an exchange student. In Shelby. I remember we thought those rotating auditoriums at the Shelby high school were a wow factor.

I cannot wait to see what you do for Christmas because your last home was exquisitely decorated for the holidays. Thank you so very much for sharing this journey with all of us again it is truly amazing what you have accomplished. Take care and God bless you.

    Brian, I followed you on Instagram when you were in your other house and always looked forward to your Christmas tour.
    I am enjoying these videos of your new house. My mother was from Edgefield and I still have family there. My favorite thing to do was checking out historical houses when I was younger.

  • @bethgaither1214
    @bethgaither1214 4 месяца назад

    First: thank you so much for restoring your home without ripping out and discarding the original character. I am shocked and saddened to see so many people doing just that with no respect and zero knowledge. I love your home and would love to pick your brain! Question: While the house is still in the reconstruction phase, why not add insulation to all sides? Doesn't insulation not only keep the warmth in but the heat out? My grandfather was on the construction crew of Colonial Williamsburg and worked on the Palace, Raleigh Tavern and the Capitol. I guess that's where I get my love of all things old, or at least made to look old. Thank you again!

  • @jefflawrentz1624
    @jefflawrentz1624 4 месяца назад

    The original wallpaper border you show reminds me somewhat of ‘Orbes Directoire border’ by Adelphi Paper Hangings. I bet they could replicate your border perfectly. The new kitchen lights look great - I love your choice. Thank you for this updated interior tour- I really enjoyed it!

    Many homes in rural South Carolina had a sleeping porch room. It could be for travelers. My ancestors had one in their house and the story was it was for the traveling preachers who would preach a circuit. A group of rural churches or sometimes “under the grapevine “ service. This was probably the most prominent family in the church.

    Brian! Love the update video! Now you will think of my comment 5 times a day when you go to the refrigerator with a left side opening door. They are designed to change the hinge side. But alas, add that to the one million things you have on your list.

    Hey Mr Brian. We can never tire of seeing your gorgeous home. The architecture itself is wonderful but then you take it to a whole new level with your beautiful collections and eye for detail. You understand how to decorate in the classical way ! You must just love it every time you come home. Have you had a chance to do some formal dinners ? Would love to see your table settings ! The library is adorable and I love that you have one token ocean liner picture ! Just love you and being a part of you living your best life !

  • @hayeslong2277
    @hayeslong2277 4 месяца назад

    When in doubt please leap through. The foyer looks wonderful, especially with the pop of those chartreuse lamps. Are they Christopher Spitzmiller? You have done an excellent job with hanging all the art throughout the house. Can’t wait to see what you option to do for future window treatments. I would love to see a segment where you discuss why certain pieces spoke to you. Speaking of speaking, the ghost is probably content that someone is protecting her home.

  • @jeffreywest9474

    Wonderful!! I hope you’re going to keep the light fixture in the library (and in the library). It’s bronze? The dark color looks really great there, and as a counterpoint to the federalist, chippendale pieces. Not crazy about the coffee table in that room.

    Your house is looking wonderful. You have a splendid eye for decoration and furniture arrangement. Years ago, I worked for the curator at Biltmore House. It occurred to me, when you were speaking about painting the original spaces: will you have the walls and ceilings painted with a brush? I hope so! This is the only appropriate method.

  • @JohnGrigger

    Hey Brian, not having any problems with 'the mug', just to let you know. This is a fabulous house! The scale of the rooms and detail on the fireplace surrounds are just wonderful. The great hall is stunning. Surprised that you didn't talk much about the fanlight and sidelights--they take my breath away. Curious, what the model is on the fireplace mantle in the den? It reminds me of my 18th century brick dorm at my college in Maine. I would be interested in its story. As an architect, scale models are eye candy for me. Many thanks...

    Hi Brian! So nice to see you again so soon!! I just love all the rooms in your home! I actually reminisce what it must have been like back in the day with the original owners walking about. This home is so grand, and I love all the furniture you have in it! The beds are beautiful, and the dining room table and chairs look beautiful! I agree with you and love the kitchen! I think you are really making progress! I look forward to your next update and hope you have a wonderful week. Hugs! :)

  • @ehta01
    @ehta01 4 месяца назад

    I agree about the wallpaper stains - I wouldn't try to remove them, even if you could; it's part of the house's history. Also, the unconnected room you use as a study could also have been a "parson's room" for travelling preachers - don't want THEM in the house :)

  • @carrielassiter8455

    I love everything you have done so far to the house and by the way, I did not know you were from Shelby NC, I live in Gastonia NC. If you dont mind I would like to make a suggestion, the room with the water damaged wallpaper I noticed in one corner where the light was shining on the wall it made it look like a sunrise/sunset type glow. So...... after re-watching the segment a few times I wonder about what if you went and painted just the sky of the wallpaper like a sunset/sunrise and leave the rest of the wallpaper as is. It would brighten the room and I think give it a special glow.
