@travelerintime123 Год назад

I just watched the video of Caleb restoring one of your doors and came over on Caleb's recommendation....glad I did. It is fantastic how you, Caleb and Kim and others are buying and fixing up these beautiful old homes. I just went through most of your videos but I didn't see one on the history of your home or the family that built it. Did I miss it? I am a history nut and love knowing about those who went before. Good luck to you and your family, it's a big job but looks like you have a good team to help you out with it!

@MansardStudios Год назад

Matt Mizell here.. I love this comment because I am so passionate about this story. Here's the deal. To properly shoot the documentary about Vahlkamp we need time and money. I dont want to under-produce it. We are trying to get monetized on YT first and get several more episodes made and then the teams dream is to shoot a documentary about Vahlkamp's life. I was a bit naïve about how much this would take to keep the 2 video a week pace. But we're going to do it. I'm also considering shooting some brews where I just go through the history without the beauty and engagement of the documentary, but it would provide context.

@travelerintime123 Год назад

@@MansardStudios Matt, you don't have to be all fancy with your videos - people (or maybe it's just me???) are just enjoying your saving of the beautiful home. I know it is hard work to get 2 videos out a week, don't kill yourself over it - My only suggestion is to simplify. With you (and your beautiful deep voice) telling the story and maybe showing a couple of pix is enough for most people. You can work on the fancy stuff as time allows. Just my 2 cents. Whatever you do, keep it coming!! and wishing you much luck and success!!!! Judy

Consider an historic freestanding kitchen rather than modern built-in. Especially with your amazing refrigerator! Will be a beautiful home.

@shellydehart8217 Год назад

First let me say Caleb sent me n I’m so glad that he did. I’m looking so forward to see you restoring this beautiful 140 year old house. It’s going to be magnificent. My only hopes that you’ll stay with the original house style. Please, don’t modernize it you’ll spoil the true character of the house. This is so exciting n I hope your looking forward to it. They’ll be many headaches n disappointments but there will be light at the end of the tunnel. ♥️😊👍

@MansardStudios Год назад

We are going to be releasing an episode about the design decisions with the house soon. We are preserving what is there, reusing what was left in the house while making sure we update the home so a modern family can live in it (currently no bathrooms!)

@kate_cooper Год назад

Long time viewer of Kaleb and Kim’s here. Great to see someone else in St Louis restoring another old house, St Louis seems to have a lot of really nice old buildings that need some love. Your CGI mock-ups of the finished house look great.

Jean that's amazing! We would love to talk to you if you're interested???

@jeancourter8491 Год назад

@@MansardStudios Sure, we could talk. I think I have a photo that may have been taken in the front parlor? It is of Henry & Caroline's 50th Wedding Anniversary. I haven't figure out the math yet to see if that is where they were living or not. The photo is a bit dark and has about 35-50 people in it (their whole family). I am on the west coast so we could set up a time that will work for both of us.

Jean we would love to chat! If you could send a message to Matt@mansardmedia.com so we can connect, we have a lot of info about Henry but are always searching for more! And photos are always great.

No, this house is actually south of Kaleb's home, about 15 minuets or so. There is so much great architecture all through St Louis City.

@AlannahRyane Год назад

I applaud your efforts and vision across the board. As someone who loves old houses with history I always suggest having the property 'cleared and smudged' of the old energy including new houses. There are real estate agents hiring people for energy house clearings. I am assuming you have done this.

@MansardStudios Год назад

Hi Alannah! My name is JD and I am the Director of the Legends of Lemp series and I am so happy I was the one who read this reply! The energy of the house is such an important aspect that has been overlooked for so long in the mainstream and I am SO extremely happy that it's becoming such a common practice. As a practitioner and explorer in the field of Psychospiritualism, we have absolutely made sure to incorporate the appropriate intentions. Thank you SO MUCH for his comment and for following our journey!

@AlannahRyane Год назад

@@MansardStudios Awesome JD I am very happy to hear your response as it felt cleared to me. After clanging and smudging a popular Toronto bar because the owners couldn't find a buyer, they called us back for a meeting because of the way it felt the morning after. They especially were shocked that the musty dank smell in the bsmt bathrooms was gone after their constant attempts to clear it with cleaning. I told them the 'copal' we added to the sage and cedar would flare up in the area across from the entrance so had to repeat the process a few times there also. They said the nasty former owner used to stand there choosing who he would let in. Loving your production. I thought just the fact that this house was so connected to the 'other' one through the DNA of this owner intensified everything and you fixed that so good job! BTW the bar sold shortly after.

@marthamiller-plumb1059 Год назад

Found out about you from Caleb and Kim!

@borislicina455 Год назад

Wow, so much to see. All these fireplaces, every single one different and lovely to look at. From the video it was difficult to tell but could the fireplace with the brass inlays and the different stone types be a painted piece like Kaleb from The Second Empire Strikes Back has in his library. And these ceiling roses, they almost look like they should be original in that paint. On your attic room, please don't remove the railing, it survived all these years, about 150 like you said and it would be a shame to loose that. If you are worried about privacy you can install a sort of non see-through glass in front of it. Last thing that interests me is will you get most of your walls plastered again or and if not, what do you imagine you do with the brick walls ?

@mattmizell7340 Год назад

Glass wall isn't a bad idea. We'll look at cost.

@MansardStudios Год назад

Thank you so much for your comment. We are going to work with the construction team to see what creative ways we can keep the original woodwork, sometimes its a matter of keeping trim or railings. The plaster was falling off the walls and ceilings due to the home being vacant for so many years. It needed to go for the safety of the family. We will have to go back with drywall so it can be insulated appropriately and it is lighter weight than plaster. Plaster would also not be financially feasable.

We are going to work with the construction team to see what we can do to save as much of the architectural details while updating it to accommodate the family. We don't want to lose the railing but may need to lose the trim around the window.
