I appreciate greatly the fact that focus was put in restoration and not stripping it of its history. I feel like too many people (inspired by home Reno shows) are so quick to buy a home, paint it gray and put shiplap all over the inside without considering in many cases, it’s historical significance or restoring it to its original colors/style of the period. There should be a grave yard dedicated to all the mid-century homes that have been destroyed in this manner.
It's gorgeous. I looooove watching homes like this get renovated that's why I'm obsessed with the French Chateau channels. With that said it's so funny how many of these homes have been built in the US before the 1940's and are just now sitting in disarray because they are incredibly pricey to renovate, but that means it'll be more fun to watch it get renovated.
I love this. There are so many amazing abandoned houses, and I love when someone with vision restores them instead of tearing them down. You just couldn't build something like that today. Can't wait to see it.
All these old structures were built so strong to withstand time. I love that people are renewing these homes. Excited to see what Joanna and Chip can do. Thank you 👍
I can't wait to see this , I have watched all your shows and loved the work you have both done, Jo you are a fantastic designer and I'm sure your castle will be a show stopper, blessings to you both and family👍❤️🇦🇺
So proud and happy for you, can't wait to see the final restoration, with your special touch, congrats Chip and Joanna! cheers to continued success in all your endeavors! xoxoox
I love the fact that you are so enthusiastic about renovating and restoring the castle and get so excited that it’s over a hundred years old! Us Brits are used to old buildings and we are systematically restoring the Chateaux in France . Good luck it’s a different ball game x
I was unable to watch your show, for a couple of years. I finally found your show on u tube. You guys are my favourite. So nice to see . I even have my daughter, interested in your shows. We love you & your beautiful family. 😘
I watched the renovation and it turned out spectacular. Joanna takes her time to make a decision and that's why everything she does is beautiful. I especially like the conservatory.
Ciao Chip Ciao Joanna, siete straordinari per me i migliori fra tutti del vostro mestiere.. Io vi seguo dall Italia precisamente da Trento.. Guardo e riguardo tutte i vostri episodi.. Fate delle ristrutturazione davvero spettacolari dando importanza a tutti i dettagli.. Siete unici.. ❤️❤️❤️
I love all that Chip and Joanna do on the Magnolia Network ESPECIALLY ANYTHING JOHNNYSWIM RELATED!!! Except none of us in Australia can watch anything!!! Please make it available somehow, even through a streaming service like Amazon. 🙏
Oh my! What a beauty!! I just wish I could continue watching them, I miss when they were on HGTV. I live in Abilene & go thru the edge of Waco to visit a friend in Bryan. One day, I'll actually stop, shop & experience what Magnolia shops have to offer 💗💗
I have watched your program for over a year now and I can’t get enough of it,you’re designs are just beautiful I wish you were able to come to we’re I live so you can transform my house,but I live in Ecuador,😞 love your work 🙋🏻♂️🐶🐕
I am so excited to watch this come together. December 2020 I bought my 3rd fixer upper 1 story. It needs more work and I'm living thru the process. I felt stuck until tonight when I viewed a RU-vid Tour of The Cottonland Castle. Finally my unfinished projects have a Vision- Your Castle Masterbath, Kitchen and library. I'm so hooked. Ready to sell my last project house so I can finish my new project that I reside in.
LOVE everything you did regarding the decorating of the castle E-X-C-E-P-T one thing - the gawdy multi-globe light fixture in the parlor......UGH! Ya'll said throughout the series how you wanted to stay true to the period, honor the history, etc., and then you put in THAT modern light fixture.......?
Ok this will be fun. At least for us in the outside world. For you a creative challenge and a ton of work. But you have never shied away from a challenge and I am great full. Thanks 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Chip and Johana look like a couple in harmony, but today when I saw how she treats him because he didn't keep the castle floors, and how he apologizes and justifies like a child, it gave me a lot of tenderness and pity for him. Furthermore, he tries to like her, praise her and recognize her permanently, as if she were a somewhat inflexible authority.
Hello Joanna. I don't know if you will really see these messages that viewers send you. But hey, I write anyway. From Caracas-Venezuela, Monday, April 1, 2024. I love your shows, I find them very fun, creative and inspiring. Joanna, you are a very talented and physically beautiful woman, but sometimes you are so hateful, towards your husband Chip. When Chip has always seen himself as such a fun man, and he is in love, the rude things you make to him are sometimes very ugly. I don't know if it's part of the performance, but it seems very hateful. Chip is a sweetheart.
These types of structures-castles always look stone cold and unappealing in overall appearance. Looking forward to watching you take it to another level with a warm, inviting landscape. How will you draw the eye in? Colors, tones, textures, patterns? Best of luck!!
The only place for breakfasting, lunching, and dining is the formal. Seems like there should have been a smaller scale kitchen seating table for less formal eating. I would have thought the Butler's Pantry could have functioned as the nook for an eating table and chairs.
Just in case you didn't get my first message so proud of you chip and Jo love you guys why sell the Mansion why not call in Magnolia mansion and then have it used for a venue and where the public can come by and see it
