Kitchen remodel question and answer chat, construction update, 

The windows add so much to the room! Can’t wait to see the fireplace! Great contractors.

That library is breathtaking! So fortunate to have it!

Adding those two windows made a huge positive difference both from the inside and outside. And, l knew right away that you were going to paint the sash!

I LOVED that precious library! Nothing like New England. So enjoy your videos!

The windows look like they should have always been there! The fireplace will make the space so cozy! I can’t wait to see it finished.

As a retired librarian I was smitten with the coziness of the library.

The windows add so much light and the fireplace will make it so cozy. Loved your walk to the little town. The library is awesome!

Love the windows & fireplace, it’s going to be beautiful

Beautiful library! I love the idea of having costumes to check out!

Love the windows, aah light and a view! 👍🤗

My goodness, the windows just totally changed the energy of that room it feels so vital and alive! I get excited watching this just as if I were doing a remodel at my own home I love doing things like this! Your hair cut looks really pretty on you. Like all the other subscribers I get so excited when I see a new video I grab a cup of coffee and take a few minutes of me time. Have a great week!🍁🤗🌻

Linda, thank you for taking us along on your inspirational journey, and the entertaining side trips that we take along the way... so enjoyable 👏🍂👏🍁

It's all so exciting! It was nerve wracking seeing the house cut like that but the windows look amazing! Now you can see the beautiful trees changing color and the room is so bright.

What a difference those windows make, perfect !!! This project is totally worth it !

The library is wonderful! So cozy and inviting. Thanks for the Q and A. I am so happy you decided to add the fireplace. The windows are everything!

Linda, I just had to say I love love love the two new window openings.. it makes that room look so much bigger and the fireplace is going to be perfect. 🥰🍁🍂🎄

Hi Linda!!! It is always so exciting when I see you posted another one of your wonderful fun videos.

Those windows make all the difference. I love it. I love looking out the windows while I eat. Watching the trees and all the squirrels. I love it.

The windows make a world of difference to an already beautiful space. The fireplace will be the icing on the cake.

The windows and gas fireplace in the kitchen is a brilliant idea!!! Can’t wait to see how it turns out!

Windows made a huge difference.. so much more light coming in that room. Good call!

The windows look fantastic - both inside and out. Can't wait to see the room completed. Great design decisions!

The windows are spot on! Love them! 👌🏼👌🏼

I learned late in life that my wants are easily dashed when I want something badly without due diligence, but even with that I’ve never been disappointed looking back at the end result! Needless to say, I’ve become somewhat more patient. ☺️

Fireplace and window wall-fantastic call! Linda, I always look forward to your videos, you bring a smile to my day. xo

Kudos to GREAT contractors!!

Oh! The library!

Great video Linda! Loved your walk into town! Your library is just so amazing!! Thanks for sharing! Love your haircut looks so pretty’❤

Hi Linda, I love what you're doing. Beautiful house. I love New England.

Linda such a big difference the windows made.. In all said and done and once the fireplace is installed it will all be beautiful.. I can’t wait to see it finished.. Thank you for sharing..

It is so exciting to watch the changes you are making! Thank you for taking us on the journey with you, can't wait to see its completion. So cozy and inviting!

What difference the windows made! So much light! Great vision. God bless, John 3:16😘🥰❤️🙏

It's amazing how adding two windows can change a room,,,, an view.. beautiful

It’s all so exciting Linda! And the windows look like they should have always been there! So happy for you!

Love the temporary windows with the potential fireplace. So much natural light on a dreary day 🥰

it's already obvious that you have made an awesome update with the windows and fireplace, what a grand room it will be once completed!!

So enjoyed this update. My initial thoughts were that I would not have given up wall space and put in those windows. Now that you have shown it, absolutely the right idea. So much light flowing in that room and I thought the outside of your house looked much better than the solid wall.

Linda you never disappoint Marlene

The windows and fireplace are great calls. They not only add symmetry outside but inside as well. You can never have too much natural light, especially in winter!

What a fabulous video!. You took us from a wonderful walk in the country side (I do love N New England) to your home via the library which I love....wish I had a library that looked like that. I too have remodeled an old home and yes, one wants to make it her own so it works. I don't believe there is the "perfect" home....there is always something to do to make it your own. And I love to decorate. Those 2 new windows are a fabulous addition. Even the outside wall looks better with the two new windows. I like the idea of the fireplace also. I took a walk this morning-my long drive is lined with the Red October maple trees and they are brilliant....and at 74F I had a hard time coming back inside to get some work done. What is the location of your store and are you online??? I so much enjoy your presentations. Many thanks.

The windows look great...even without paint and trim. Brilliant idea asking them to use the existing windows until the new ones come in. It is going to be so beautiful when it is all done.

Linda, the kitchen is really coming along, can't wait to see the finish!

Such a charming cozy library! Beautiful to see a bit of Fall.

Love Love Love the new windows!!! That whole wall is just awesome!!

Linda, of course your little shop is doing well because everything that you have there is so nice and the prices are good! 🥰We are also wanting to build a really nice barn, possibly a post and beam, but they are so costly and so that project is on hold for a while. I also love to have a project at all times in the house, so I know what you mean! Putting those new windows in was genius…more light in the room and a beautiful view! Thanks for sharing with us…looking forward to seeing the next video!!

Wow! The fireplace and windows are a wonderful addition to your room. Just beautiful!

Oh Linda…those windows are perfect there. It immediately added brightness to the room. I can’t wait till it’s all finished ☺️. The walk you went on was so lovely to see. And I love the hair 😁. Have a great night!! 🪟🔥🪟

Windows there make such a difference! Lovely!

Hello from England!

Like the hairstyle! It reflects your enthusiasm and youthful attitude!

The windows were a great idea! I would have painted them too! Willow seemed to like them also! The library was so charming.🎃

Linda, I just love sitting in Evening, watching your Videos. They give me pleasure, and so many Ideas. Please continue with them. Thank you Lisa

What a great difference those windows make in this room. Much brighter.

I think adding the windows was a great idea. 😊 I think it is going to add such a cozy feel, especially when it is snowing out and having the fireplace lit. You are a great designer.👍

I think that Willow likes the new windows!

Learned in my 40's , that control is the power I can give. Even then life is complicated enough , step back , breath deep , focus , center yourself, step forward. Most will come to you. Heath and family are more important. The quality you share with them is paramount. Fabulous ideas can't wait to see the results.

I am excited for you! I love the light that the new windows bring in. You are so smart to go with the flow. That’s what I concentrate on, the older I get. (With age comes wisdom!) You have been a big inspiration for me. I am creating “fine living” in my own space!

Love the 2 windows in that room!

The windows and fireplace... are everything.. I just had a custom light oak with angle sides..20 in inch mantle installed... So beautiful.. Living your best life..❤

I really love the windows.

In reference to "it is what it is"...I am working on that one too and I think of it in this way: When something is not to my liking, is a conflict, or stressor, I stop, breathe, and tell myself, "This, too, belongs." And I am noticing, with this new level of acceptance, I don't take it into my body. I feel much calmer. There is a sense of wholeness and ease that comes with accepting what 'is'. Also it helps to know that things always change.

I love the windows. 🇮🇪

The windows not only add light and visual inside, they also fill out the empty space and adds balance along the long wall outside. I love the addition!!❤

Love the windows - it will be cozy looking outside at snow with your fireplace going enjoying something warm. I love how you spoke of wearing your Father’s coat. I have a blanket my Father made. I love curling up with it - a wonderful embrace. Love you videos. Please listen to your body. Your invaluable to your family. 😊💕

Very much enjoyed this video! I love the windows and Willow will especially enjoy being able to see who is coming and going 🐾♥️🐾 Haircut looks great too

I JUST LOVE IT!!! I share your excitement about these things!

The windows are wonderful and the fireplace. What a change it makes! Awesome changes.

🌾~Love the addition of the windows & can't wait to see the fireplace!! Sugarwood is just amazing; I love everything about it & all of your update plans!! 🏡

Good Morning from New Zealand . I really enjoy your videos and look forward to seeing the remodelling.

Wow that room is so light and airy now. What a difference. Totally different room.

Really love what you’re doing in your kitchen. The windows are a great addition to your room. Can’t wait to see a beautiful fire in your fireplace on a very cold winter day. How yummy!

Great idea to put the windows and fireplace on that wall! I love, love your chandelier over your table. I too have learn to go with the flow when doing any upgrades on your home.

Your remodel is fun to watch, I enjoy each video. Are the kitchen chairs and table available somewhere? I really like them.

Take care of yourself! We keep you in my prayers. I love your style. Started about the time you were getting ready to move into this house.

the windows are spectacular! The house was asking for them to be there and also it wanted a fireplace . I love your home and your wonderful ideas . Thank you for sharing.

How beautiful your temp windows are ! And fireplace ! Wow ! Just beautiful . Great improvement Linda . Also taking out the oversized cabinet in the kitchen👍

Wow. The windows open up the whole kitchen area.. Once it's finished it will look beautiful. I wish my renovation was going as quickly as yours...!

You do whatever makes you happy! Life is too short to live where you feel needs "something" . It is good to see you happy as you work very hard!

Libraries are a favorite place for me. This one in a beautiful heritage home would be hard to leave after a visit.

I loved watching the windows go in. It will be so much nicer with windows and fireplace.

Oh my gosh Linda where they were cutting threw your house, I held my breath. The position of the windows look great and it sure opens up the space. Will be glad when they are done. Looks so great.

O my gosh-who cares if the windows are temporary. The light coming through is just beeeeutiful and that almost fireplace! You should be excited, you lucky girl! I'm excited and it's not my house. Glad all the bugs are getting worked out. And that stove-achh-what a piece of jewelry for that kitchen. I'm living your dream and am thrilled (no really) when I see you've posted. You are so amazing and gifted. I am sorry that you have health issues. My dad had mini strokes and they were frightening-maybe more for us because he didn't know who we were. But once they got the right meds he never had another. So girl, relax. No more stressing. Holidays are coming and that means lots of family, fun and COOKIES! OK, I'm excited again. Have a blessed day...oh but you already have.

Hi Linda, I just love the windows and fireplace, perfect choices! Your kitchen will be absolutely lovely, so warm and inviting.

Love the windows! Glad the water leak was found, the SNFU's may have been a God send! Absolutely the most beautiful fall colors, I enjoyed the photography! Peace be with you!

Oh wow! How amazing do the windows and fireplace look! I am mesmerized! Your visions are phenomenal! Love everything Linda!!

Excited for this one, construction update. Also wanted to share I did order the apple cider donut mix from New England Hot Fudge/ New England Bake House. Everything was fabulous. Really loved that chocolate chip pancake mix😊

OMG Linda your kitchen with the new windows and fireplace is outstanding!! How it changed the look and feel of your space. I also Love your haircut too.

Hi there! I just discovered your channel-love it! We just moved from a 200 year old house when we retired. I really miss it, but finding your channel is giving me my old house therapy. I have been bin watching your older videos and love every one. It’s actually inspiring me to make some changes in our home. Looking forward to seeing your kitchen completed.

So much fun watching!!!!!

You just had my dream morning. A walk on the gorgeous fall roaf with all the sights and sounds and fragrances. A hot cup of coffee, lunch for later .. and then that quaint, cozy library!!!! Does life get any better than this? The windows completely changed the feel of this room. Can't wait to see it all come together.

Linda you remind me of my mother when she was much much younger. I always get happy feels when I watch your videos. I have to admit I'm a bit jealous of your lovely home with all the juicy history. Excited to see what you do next.

You are one clever person. The windows made all the difference in the world!

If I ever run away from my home in Alabama, I am headed to New England. It is just so beautiful. A library and a coffee shop in a nearby village. Yes Please. Linda, I enjoy change as well so I get it. Those windows are perfect! I love all the light in that room. Looking forward to seeing all the changes you are making. Thanks for sharing.( And yes, I would have painted that sash as well...those things drive me crazy.lol)

Love the windows and fireplace ideas! You have such great vision. So fun to watch! Thank you Linda…. Dee

Great addition to the room Linda, the windows and fireplace definitely adds focus. It will look lovely dressed for Christmas. You must look after your health…..😊

What a wonderful episode! Love the windows and fireplace. They make the space so much cozier. Eagerly awaiting every new installment 🎃

Hi Linda...what a beautiful day up there! It is beautiful here in VA too today! Everything is coming together so well!! So excited for all that you are doing! The kitchen is going to be wonderful!!!! ❤

Oh my goodness, how great the windows are. When you first talked about putting windows there, I just wasn’t sure but it just added so much light to the room and I’m sure the view is beautiful.
