You are just so wholesome and down to earth, you have the funds, stately hom, title etc yet you are so kind and so wonderfully genuine. Just love you and your channels. Thank you, thank for being you and sharing your wonylife xx
Those flea markets are to die for. You have found wonderful, unique things for your home. Love your bathtub.! I would not have taken the rust off either. That makes it just perfect for your bathroom. ….❤
Yeah, this is another of your channels I'm hooked on. I've built homes for Habitat for Humanity, remodeled homes, and love antiquing. Never been to Tuscany but I love it. I was stationed in Great Lakes, IL. and had a blast. It is way cool you lived near Sandwich, IL. Coincidence??? 😊
Hi...I saw that beautiful chandelier you got for your bedroom..with that beautiful Patina...however if you want to clean it out try using a mix of baking soda + lemon or white alcohol vinagre with a pinch of neutral detergent...works wonders... This is also good for jewels..real or not.. it brings back the shining of all metals.
I absolutely love the bathroom! It’s so pretty! So many beautiful things at the antique markets! I love the chandeliers! I also love how you incorporate new with old!
Watching your video in my apartment in New York I love European decor. I have quite a bit of it so I am quite enjoying watching you decorate your home in Italy. You’re doing a fantastic job.!!!!!
Oh my goodness! Julie your house is going to look so unique and beautiful! Thank you for taking us through the antique markets ❤ Imagine the history behind every single object! I am definitely going to visit them when I come back to Italy. I can’t wait for the next video.
I don't get the half and half paint colors on the walls. So many beautiful stencils, tiles and textured finishes to choose from that have the authentic Italian vibe that if paired with your other décor would knock it out of the park.
I would love to see your finds when you find them ,I love what you have bought your home will be so nice ,just feel we are missing out on you finding your items and chosing them ,hope you understand what I'm trying to say ,love you Caroline ,England xx
The grout pens are the best!! Before I sold my condo, I used the white pens to refresh the old white grout in my shower. It looked like a brand new shower when it was all done.
Yes. She writes it in the Info box. These are archive videos that are also posted on her other chanel. She wants to post them in the next weeks until she catches up.
Last touch I would do it treat the feet on the tub to rustproof. And pain the claw feet in the same bronze to match the mirror. And yes, of course, ... Love! Love! Love! the rust on the side of the tub. But just think the feet would give it that extra pizzazz and finish it off in a really classy way. Patti Bee, Madison, Wisconsin -- love your content Julie and love your style.
Julie, Would you be willing to share your ethnic background? Are you Italian or just love the Italian culture? Your passion for your Italian home is so sweet!
Loved seeing the Huge Warehouses full of Antiques, the Venetian Chandeliers were magnificent, the old hand painted wardrobes, and storage cupboards with labels for herbs were all so fun! I could get into so much trouble there- in a good way! Love the lamps and really everything you've hunted for and found at great prices- a person after my own heart. Love that the person left- (in a place she figured you'd again visit!)- the Viscountess Lady Rosemary Hinchingbrook's sketchbook- (hope I have that right). Perhaps the sketchbook is from her younger years, but showing great aptitude at a younger age for the Artist she was to become. That was so kind and thoughtful. Your bathroom tub is great- and love the lights- especially the chandelier overhead. Have you ever seen the antique or newer bamboo racks they make for footed bathtubs that span the tub width and allow for soap, washcloths, etc? Some are simple, some larger with wine holder and even holder for an iPad, lol. They also have metal soap & sponge holders that have hooks that hang on side (inside) of the tub...these could be useful. You really make Europe in general, and Italy in particular sound so interesting and attractive. Love the Flea markets and you sharing a feel for the history, people and places you visit. Your Italian house is delightful! Thanks for sharing!
I absolutely love this series ! I just found you on here ! And I’m so excited for you and to watch everything you are doing to your new Home! I have always wanted to move to Italy ! I just think this is great !
Just a suggestion -The indentation in the field could have been an area of ground which was a reservoir or pond for cattle to drink from. Or has been dug out for another reason.
Smile I on the other hand loves when Julie loves something she tells you! I understood not that she would repaint it but the lines of wooden bed is what she was looking for, not the delicate flowers of a different style...
I agree. I, too, like the stencil painting on the headboards. Are they historic? Looks whimsical. However, I trust Julie's taste. When I see Julie's design that she has in mind, I'll probably understand the look she's going for.
Dear Julie, I don’t know if you’re aware of this but in the notifications from RUclips they’re using your channel to sort of click bait for gossip channels about the Royal family. Wish I could insert a screen shot here to show you. For example it will say: Mapperton Live, (your video title), viewers also watch this channel. The channel they’re pushing is a gossipy much lower level channel. I feel like it really brings your channel down by associating it with that type of always inaccurate gossip.
I love what you're doing with your Italian House, but I do have a question about the weather in England. Why is it always gloomy and overcast and not much sun?
Hi Julie, 👋 My name is Susie, I live in the states and I’m new to your channel. I am loving the beauty of not only your home but seeing Italy through your eyes, you enthusiasm is contagious 😊❤ Thank you for walking us through all your work and the shops with all those antiques ❤❤❤, I love antiques. I do have a question I hope you can answer, I bought a beautiful table lamp with gorgeous crystals hanging all around it and when I cleaned the crystals the wires what hole them started breaking, any idea what I might get to replace them but make them look authentic? Thank you for sharing all of this wonderful country and town that your house is in, I’m enamored and would love to walk through the town, I’m living vicariously through you 😊❤ Be well, stay safe and God Bless
It was so nice to see a bit more of your town. Very charming! I was so excited to see the grout pens!! I know that is a weird comment, but when I chose the grout for my master bath it was supposed to be the same in the tiled shower and on the floor (even though the tiles are different). The contractor didn't use the correct grout and like yours it looks almost white. I hate white grout. I'm going to google for those pens, but if I don't find them, could your provide a link? I hope I can get them in the US! Grazie Mille Julia!
You doing great work and hunting for antique pieces, however, the mustard color of the bathroom is too much. But then, we were wondering if perhaps the camera view/lighting is different than actual color.
Hi Julie, I have traveled to your Italian beautiful home. Once again your ideas are so inspiring. My great grandmother some 16 times removed was Catherine Di Medici. Her family was of great wealth and influence. She married the King of France, Henry2, to create an alliance between France and Italy. In those days it was about marriage to a catholic so that the Pope would help to support wars. It was also about interest in the two lands to keep the peace. Rarely was it about love. However, the son of the King of France who was Francois was betrothed to Mary Queen of Scots at age 6. They married when they were 17 or 18 and it was a great love match. He was the great love of her life however he died between a year and 18 months into their marriage. She then returned to Scotland to claim her throne, no longer feeling as though she was Queen Consort without her love and King. I can not believe this is my history and here I am a simple woman renovating my 1892 home. It really is who marries whom and when my King and Queen lines of Stuarts, Tudor, Valois and Di Medici ran into Earls and Lords and slowly disappeared into wealthy landowners and last Pilgrim in Massachusetts. I feel that we are fragments in our DNA of all of these people and voila, I am this soul. Thank you Julie, I might never get to a lot of the Uk...I have been to Italy and have Murano glass on my end table. Your life is so exciting!💖
Enjoying this renovation...At the end will you give a general price of the property, and all the costs spent to renovate?? If I am being too nosy I'm sorry..
I'm really enjoying the renovations of your piccolo casa (not sure I spelled that correctly) and the wonderful views of Tuscany. I have always wanted to live there myself and you are so blessed. In the 2nd bedroom, is the wood feature a door or window or something? I'm especially excited about the kitchen Reno and can't wait to see it finished. But then your reno's will be over and I won't get to see more of tuscany! :D
The purpose of a bath tube is to provide a sense of cleanliness. Sure a slick clean underside is more expensive. I do not appreciate the deco statement of the rusted underside of the footed bathtub, i
I absolutely love the videos but I’m a new subscriber. Can anyone tell me how much Julie spent on the actual renovations of the house? Thx. Now I need to find me one. 😊
I'm a bit confused because awhile ago I watched many videos of this little house finished. Including the decorated balcony. But this video was posted a few hours ago? And are they still wearing masks there in May 2024?
Hey Julie, I will so have to get in contact with you, as I have a dream too of owning a property in Italy. I still have family in Northern Italy and in a very small town where my grandmother and my mother and my uncle and my grandfather were born. We still have the same house and I am hoping to purchase the property from family, so I can have it as a respite for people who I work with - who suffer from PTSD - so travelling from Australia to Italy, will be a big trip for people, (where I’m from) but it will be a sanctuary and it will be a peaceful calming environment in a very very old historic villa right on the Swiss Alps and right on the Italian Alps, so I would love to contact you to run ideas through - as to how you have done it - because this is a very big deal for me and I love watching your videos it’s very inspiring and touches my heart. I am also wanting to capture this journey on RUclips and create a channel around this. Lots of love for now and keep making those videos. Tracey. Xx
I'm sorry (new here), but who is Malcolm? I know you from Ladies of London and also from seeing a few vlogs on your other channel. Forgive me if I'm being too nosy.
Its a latin language thats why its dificult for you , Im portuguese i have a latin language we speak easely italian etc ...We have the necessary accent.i love your videos !
Julie, your joy is so refreshing. Having Malcolm there, is just pure magic! Congratulations 🎉🎉
Thank you so much!!
Very glad to see the compilation of footage here on the new channel. New viewers will enjoy Julie’s enthusiasm and love for Italy!
These flea markets you go to are incredible.!!!!!
Your bathroom is worthy of a magazine.
I think they call half curtains …cafe curtains
I know this lovely Italian house will be beautiful beyond words cause Julie and Malcom will see that it is. Great job you two👏🏻💕
Thank you so much!
Mixed metals are fine and I love the rust look that rust color is beautiful. As long as the pieces make you happy it’s fantastic!!
Wonderful video👍🏻
Thank you 👍
Love that you grouted it with dark grout. It makes it look like an old wood floor. ❤
The silver N Gold 😍 You we're Spot On!with the chrome fixture and antique brass accent 😊 Julie your Italian bathroom is beautifull ❤
You are just so wholesome and down to earth, you have the funds, stately hom, title etc yet you are so kind and so wonderfully genuine. Just love you and your channels. Thank you, thank for being you and sharing your wonylife xx
Sorry for the typos, I have three broken fingers 👀
Thank you sooooo much!!! ♥️♥️
Those flea markets are to die for. You have found wonderful, unique things for your home. Love your bathtub.!
I would not have taken the rust off either. That makes it just perfect for your bathroom. ….❤
Glad to see you’re having fun while you’re doing it all. Everything is going to be spectacular once you’re done with it all.
Malcolm is the best! Glad he’s with you!
I also love the old with new, adds lots more interest 🙂
Your joy is so wonderful and contagious ❤️ love all the walks and scenery makes me wish I were there. The very best wishes for you and your family.
Thank you so much!
Your excitement is so inspiring 💖 Lovely results❤
Thank you so much!!
I LOOOOVE the rust on the bathtub!! And the warehouses you shared are AMAZING!! Thank you, as always, for taking us along for the ride!
Thanks for watching!
I bet that chandelier is going to look spectacular!
Totally addicted to all your channels … I have been watching all over the past two weekends ❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤
thank you!!
I had to rewind and hit the pause button, because I thought I'd seen GOLF CLUBS and sure enough, there they were!
Yeah, this is another of your channels I'm hooked on. I've built homes for Habitat for Humanity, remodeled homes, and love antiquing. Never been to Tuscany but I love it. I was stationed in Great Lakes, IL. and had a blast. It is way cool you lived near Sandwich, IL. Coincidence??? 😊
Hi...I saw that beautiful chandelier you got for your bedroom..with that beautiful Patina...however if you want to clean it out try using a mix of baking soda + lemon or white alcohol vinagre with a pinch of neutral detergent...works wonders... This is also good for jewels..real or not.. it brings back the shining of all metals.
Love the new bath and the colour scheme for the house, especially the wooden floor tiles. 🇬🇧
I love your videos! The bathroom looks so pretty.❤️
Thank you so much!!
I absolutely love the bathroom! It’s so pretty! So many beautiful things at the antique markets! I love the chandeliers! I also love how you incorporate new with old!
Watching your video in my apartment in New York I love European decor. I have quite a bit of it so I am quite enjoying watching you decorate your home in Italy. You’re doing a fantastic job.!!!!!
I loved this the first time I love it more now!
Love the rust on the tub. Love mixing metals. Wonderful the sketchbook returned to your library.
WoW!! Some place to go crazy wild in there 😮
Oh my goodness! Julie your house is going to look so unique and beautiful! Thank you for taking us through the antique markets ❤ Imagine the history behind every single object! I am definitely going to visit them when I come back to Italy. I can’t wait for the next video.
What joy you bring! ❤Greatly appreciate watching your videos! 😊
Thank you so much!
Thank you Julie! Julie in Italy takes me to Italy with you! ❤️
Loved it!! 👏👏👏👏
❤Zeljka
I absolutely love the bathroom! And the flea market was fantastic! I was surprised to see mask mandates still in place though.
Nice personal taste and touch. Keep up the good work!
The wooden clothes pegs are great for making dolls with to….. #childhoodthings 😂
I don't get the half and half paint colors on the walls. So many beautiful stencils, tiles and textured finishes to choose from that have the authentic Italian vibe that if paired with your other décor would knock it out of the park.
I would love to see your finds when you find them ,I love what you have bought your home will be so nice ,just feel we are missing out on you finding your items and chosing them ,hope you understand what I'm trying to say ,love you Caroline ,England xx
Will do!!
Great video.
Thanks!
Just subscribed to your channel, can't wait to see all your improvements
Thanks for the sub!
The light grout looked better. But it would turn darker from the dirt with some time
Soo much to look at I would lose sight of my want and need list😂
Julie, can I ask how much you purchased your home for in Italy? Love it! The bathroom is very beautifully curated. 🌞
beautifully done Julie
Julie everything’s so pretty your house is going to look stunning xx
Thanks so much 😊
Painting @ 14:11 looks like a Van Gogh. I love it ❤
I love the sconces above the bathroom sink. Great score as they say!
Thanx for tagging us along, brilliant!X
My pleasure 😊
Such fun watching the transformation of your little Italian house. I cannot wait to see what is next!
The grout pens are the best!! Before I sold my condo, I used the white pens to refresh the old white grout in my shower. It looked like a brand new shower when it was all done.
Confused ……. Was this filmed several years ago ?
Yes. She writes it in the Info box. These are archive videos that are also posted on her other chanel. She wants to post them in the next weeks until she catches up.
I was getting confused too, because everything had been renovated, except the kitchen, so these are all repeats.
Cosa ci sarebbe di tanto interessante avere una casa in Italia da dove la maggior parte degli italiani vorrebbe evadere.
Basta avere i soldi, poi l'Italia è fantastica.

Great channel- very beautiful and refreshing! ❤️😊
You looked like a duck at the meeting with the orange face mask.😊 loved three tear ceiling light fixture.
That’s a lovely jacket
Such beautiful things for your home
Thank you! 😊

Please paint the outside of the tub with a rust-resistant paint. Thanks.
I really hate to be a Debbie downer but it would be a crying shame to paint over the bird painting on those beautiful headboards.
Smile I on the other hand loves when Julie loves something she tells you! I understood not that she would repaint it but the lines of wooden bed is what she was looking for, not the delicate flowers of a different style...

As @kataleen7962 said, Julie was pointing them out as inspiration but said she was not buying them, but looking for something with similar lines.

@donnapecoraro yes, very annoying of RUclips to do....😢
Sorry to say I'm confused as I thought you showed us the second bedroom decorated with the twin beds, linens, and a desk?...am I losing it?
yes, these are archived videos - new content coming in July! x
I love what you're doing with your Italian House, but I do have a question about the weather in England. Why is it always gloomy and overcast and not much sun?

Can you order from Riccardo Barthel? I would love to use some of these fittings in my reno.
You doing great work and hunting for antique pieces, however, the mustard color of the bathroom is too much. But then, we were wondering if perhaps the camera view/lighting is different than actual color.
People mix metals now. I think the bath is nice. The only thing I would change is the door going into the bat..a little too modern

What town in Italy is this located? It’s charming!
Looks like tons of fun! Just started watching. Is Malcome your husband?
No, he's a good friend. Husband is Luke - you can watch us at @mappertonlive
Has the kitchen renovation been finished? I feel like this is an old video???
Read description in the video - and you'll understand. thanks for watching!

interior designer.
The soundtracks you insert are Sicilian in Brooklyn style. They have nothing to do with Lunigiana or Tuscany.
What is the name of the little town ? I understand Filisano or Finisano, but I couldnt find it
Please give names of antique markets
Amazing market...but I can't believe everyone is still masking up?
That footage, I believe, is quite old when masks were still a thing in Italy.
Is it mandatory to wear a mask?
Why remodel so soon
Its a latin language thats why its dificult for you , Im portuguese i have a latin language we speak easely italian etc ...We have the necessary accent.i love your videos !
Hi Julie, do you perhaps have the email for the estate agent for fivizzano that you used?
I’m a bit confused is this a new Italian house or the same one? Just looks different to me.
Nothing wrong with mixing metals. The most beautiful homes look as if they were curated over a lifetime, not at IKEA in one shopping trip.
Is Emma your daughter or your friend
Her daughter.
How do you like that, Luke. In that moment I was reminded of Harry and Megain.... Push the aristocrat out of the way and make room for America.😂
Why is everyone wearing masks, is it mandatory there at the warehouses?
Too many um's
Yes that's so annoying 😮 it must be to the Italian's also. Ummmmmm 😮
I find that bathtub looks horrible with the rust on it. Sorry.
I think it needs a treatment to soften it. A gloss maybe. 😊
