00:06Hey, Hank, can you dig me a hole right here?
00:09Today, our niece and nephew, Hank and Nell,
00:13my little brother Jesse, and his wife, Lauren,
00:15are going to come over.
00:16The kids will actually eat fresh vegetables
00:19if they pull them out of dirt first.
00:21Well, you're going to want to sit down.
00:23We got something to tell you.
00:24Are y'all OK?
00:25We bought a house.
00:27What?
00:28Yeah.
00:28Where?
00:29What house?
00:30In Ellisville.
00:30You want to see pictures?
00:32Yeah.
00:32OK.
00:33It needs some work.
00:34The house is not great.
00:36The house is not great.
00:37It's ugly.
00:38What brought this home?
00:40Where are we growing our house?
00:41Hold on.
00:42Are you pregnant?
00:45Good morning.
00:46Just another day of making our favorite small town better.
00:49Erin, we got to go, babe.
00:51Love you, girls.
00:51Y'all have fun.
00:52Ben, let's go.
00:53You believe we fixed up over 100 houses in Laurel?
00:55I don't know what's going to go wrong today.
00:57I'm sure something.
00:59Anytime we start a new house, we don't know how it's going to go.
01:01Girl, the bat just flew through here.
01:03That's not good.
01:05No way.
01:06They're about to see the house for the first time.
01:08This is the best part.
01:09Oh, my God.
01:11Are you serious right now?
01:12It is perfect.
01:13Every day is different when you're renovating houses in Laurel, Mississippi.
01:24Are you pregnant?
01:26We are.
01:27I knew you were pregnant.
01:29There's going to be another baby.
01:31Yeah.
01:32Oh, my gosh.
01:33You're pregnant.
01:34Yeah.
01:34You've listed the green house.
01:36Mm-hmm.
01:36And you are under contract.
01:38Mm-hmm.
01:38Yeah.
01:38You're talking about the one over by Katie and Chris's house?
01:41Where we saw y'all the other day?
01:43Hey, what are y'all doing?
01:45We're looking at a house.
01:47We'll tell y'all about it later.
01:49Did y'all just go look at it the one time?
01:51Yeah.
01:52Yeah.
01:52It was a great price.
01:53We got it for $200,000.
01:55Mm-hmm.
01:55We bought it because it has six acres.
01:58It has a huge kitchen.
01:59It has a pool.
02:00It has a basement.
02:02It needs a lot of love.
02:04Are you just going to move into it?
02:05We're going to do renovations.
02:07Has your house sold?
02:08No.
02:08That's yeah.
02:09We just put it on the market.
02:10Y'all, that was really, like, impulsive to buy a house before your other one sells.
02:16No need to fear.
02:17You look a little worried.
02:19We're going to be good.
02:19Their life is just a completely different thing than it was when we did the little green cottage.
02:26Welcome to the Napier house.
02:28Hey!
02:29Woo-hoo!
02:31Have you thought about that?
02:32That was the last Christmas and we didn't know it.
02:35We definitely have sweet memories there.
02:38You're just not as sentimental as we are, I guess.
02:41Yep.
02:43There will be more memories made at the new house.
02:47I just feel some, like, sadness because Ellisville is not two blocks away.
02:53It's a 15 minute drive to that house?
02:5515 minutes.
02:5615 minutes.
02:57Yeah.
02:57I love that house.
02:58We do too.
02:59But we're also outgrowing it, looking for more space.
03:03How big's the house?
03:04What's going on here?
03:04Same amount of bedrooms, but just more room in general.
03:07We love the basement.
03:08Let's play the last five years.
03:12They got married, bought a house.
03:15Oh my God!
03:18Oh, it looks so good!
03:20Dang!
03:20They got pregnant.
03:22They got pregnant again.
03:24They bought a small business.
03:27They frame shop in town.
03:30It's been four years.
03:31Yeah.
03:31And since then we have moved locations to a new building downtown.
03:35We now know got pregnant again, bought a new house, and listed their house.
03:40That's a lot.
03:42You're dramatic.
03:43I'm not being dramatic.
03:44We're going to try and do it ourselves.
03:46We're trying to be thrifty.
03:47We'll move in as is, and we probably won't do half the things before the baby comes.
03:53We love some paint ideas.
03:56I can definitely help.
03:57Kitchen ideas.
03:58We kind of want to do it.
03:59Yeah, we'll do it ourselves.
04:00All right.
04:01It's going to be good.
04:02We're excited.
04:04I am excited, but I am also nervous.
04:07So are we.
04:08Okay, good.
04:09That's what I needed to hear.
04:11Maybe if we talked about ideas and walked through the house with them,
04:16pumped them up about what we could offer, what we could bring to the table,
04:21that might soften them on this DIY thing they're so
04:25crazy obsessed with trying right now at the worst time possible.
04:32We want them to let us do this house, but they're not asking anybody to help do anything.
04:38I just want to help in some way.
04:40You can't be actively involved in helping them unless they ask for it.
04:44That is hard for you.
04:45But we're all like, dude, you need help.
04:52This weather was so crazy.
04:55Look at the paint.
04:56Holy smokes, y'all.
04:58The paint looks so good.
05:01You didn't even know if you was in the right house or not, did you?
05:02No.
05:03You got time.
05:04What all have you done inside?
05:06Blood room area.
05:08This looks special.
05:10Yeah.
05:11There's no wood floors in here.
05:12There's not wood underneath.
05:14It's all.
05:14No, we looked at it.
05:15It's just a plywood.
05:17We love the size.
05:18It's huge kitchen.
05:20That was a big selling point about the house.
05:22We would just like some updates.
05:23So how thrifty are we wanting to be?
05:26Like, do you want to use the cabinets that are here?
05:28Do you want to reface them?
05:29I'm okay to be thrifty elsewhere to have a better looking kitchen.
05:34We spend a lot of time in here.
05:36This, I think it's got to go because you've said you wish you could have a big island, right?
05:40There's plenty of room for that as long as that's not there.
05:43So if you lost that, you could open up a case opening here.
05:48You would need to push the ductwork up into the attic and then you would need like a laminated
05:52beam because you're going to have to have big support right here.
05:55Okay.
05:56But then we would build a huge island right here.
05:59I love that.
06:01You could have the fridge.
06:02These are great ideas.
06:03In the corner over there.
06:04The range would kind of shift.
06:05I like that.
06:06But you could have another oven in the island.
06:08You bake more than anybody I know.
06:10We're cooking family.
06:12And then as far as countertops.
06:14We loved our granite countertops at the previous home.
06:17I would love something.
06:18Have you ever seen green quartzite?
06:20No.
06:20Because I have been dying.
06:21But I love green.
06:24Oh, gosh.
06:26That's pretty.
06:27That's so you.
06:28I love it.
06:29They're kind of expensive though.
06:30So we don't have to do that.
06:31That would be a great choice.
06:32We could be thrifty elsewhere.
06:34I think a backslash that's classic but makes some kind of statement.
06:39Like you could do a two-tone field tile checkerboard pattern where it's like a terracotta and cream.
06:45If we went with like a cream color on the cabinetry.
06:48A deep ecru maybe if you wanted to have a little more color so it's not too white.
06:53I think you got to get rid of the floor.
06:55Yeah.
06:55I hate the floor.
06:56Rats of really cool sheet vinyl would be your super budget choice.
07:02Love that.
07:02Or you could tile in here and do something that's like a salteo colored hex tile I think would be
07:08really pretty.
07:09That would be so easy to clean too.
07:11The dishwasher works so we're going to keep that.
07:13Uh huh.
07:14We could look for appliances that are not super expensive because again they're not the star of the show.
07:19I'm fine with the little scratch and dent.
07:21So then you're going to be kind of sharing the space with the dining room.
07:24If you deleted the door and the window it would allow for a bigger dining room table.
07:31You could just really use the dining room though.
07:33And then lighting, paint.
07:35You got to refinish the floors though.
07:36Do you know how to refinish floors?
07:38I was just going to get on the internet and watch a video.
07:42What are you thinking about the bathroom?
07:44This is going to be the kids slash guest bathroom probably most used.
07:50This tile is really great.
07:54This tile is really bad.
07:57It's a whole situation.
07:58We really love the blue 50s, 60s look.
08:02I mean it's appropriate.
08:05Everything else, the stucco walls.
08:08Yeah, it's bad.
08:09What are you going to do?
08:10Sheet rock over it.
08:11Or cut it out.
08:13I have no idea how to do that.
08:14That's going to be another internet video.
08:16I love the idea of keeping the blue tile and doing some type of wallpaper in here.
08:21Yes.
08:21And then, you know, find a vanity or something.
08:24Yeah, you can definitely get a prefab vanity that's beautiful.
08:28Yeah.
08:28And that would save a lot of money.
08:29Something thrifty.
08:30And you said you definitely need double sinks in the kids bathroom.
08:33Yeah.
08:34All right.
08:34So that's what we're doing in here.
08:36So the biggest style changer in here would be, I think you got to take all this off completely.
08:42I would love- And re-sheet rock.
08:44I would love like a wallpaper.
08:45Yes.
08:46I love pattern.
08:47And then taking out this tile floor, you could do possibly a sheet vinyl that looks like mosaic,
08:53just like white floor tile, or you could actually do mosaic floor tile is not that expensive.
08:58Yes.
08:58By a beautiful prefab vanity unit.
09:00You could have a funky little semi-flush light fixture.
09:04Yes.
09:04You could have a funky mirror and hardware for paint towels.
09:08I love like curves and different shapes and texture.
09:12Yes.
09:13I love the idea of mixing all of that together.
09:15Are we happy with the tub?
09:16We like the tub.
09:17I love the tub.
09:18You get Marletta to refinish that.
09:20That's not expensive.
09:21Okay.
09:21What else have y'all done?
09:23Nothing's changed in here.
09:24No, the hallway's the same.
09:25We have done some painting.
09:26The kids' room.
09:27How is that?
09:28Oh, the paint looks good.
09:30We didn't paint.
09:31My parents painted.
09:32Just because some of the paint, I can't be around while being pregnant.
09:35I have been pregnant and renovated.
09:37I just remember how stressful it was.
09:39We would be living in a lot of the renovation.
09:41Yeah, which doesn't sound appealing.
09:44I mean, you still have such a very long way to go.
09:48And you're halfway to growing a full baby.
09:51And it's not getting easier.
09:52Before you can live in this house, you need the kitchen.
09:55A kitchen and a bathroom.
09:56Yep.
09:57And you need one bathroom.
09:58We were prepared to do it ourselves when we bought the house.
10:01Yeah.
10:02I think realistically, it's going to take longer to do it yourself than you have thought about.
10:08I'm just going to buy a house.
10:09It's going to work.
10:09We can figure it out.
10:10We're going to fix it up ourselves.
10:11We're thrifty.
10:12We're capable.
10:13All of that is true.
10:15Like, even though the house is not really a disaster, it's just that I don't think that
10:19they can possibly fix it before the baby comes.
10:22I just don't think we kind of realized how much of a big burden that would be.
10:27The idea of not living in the house while it's getting renovated is appealing.
10:31That is a little overwhelming.
10:32We don't like to ask for help.
10:34But they have more of a shot at getting all this done than we do ourselves.
10:38The house sold.
10:39You need some of that money to pay for this one.
10:42But then you have some left over.
10:44We've got $75,000 that you want to spend on this house.
10:50Yeah.
10:50To renovate.
10:51What were you thinking?
10:52What if we take the $75,000?
10:55We could just do the urgent rooms only.
10:57Kitchen, a bathroom, and get in the dining room, living room, livable.
11:01Your roof's 25 years old, so we need to work in $10,000 for that.
11:05I like that.
11:07Yeah.
11:07We like that.
11:07Yeah.
11:08Y'all are currently a family of four, and you only have a few more weekends of that.
11:14Before little sister arrives.
11:16Is it a little sister?
11:17It is a little sister.
11:18I bet y'all already have a name picked out.
11:20Bonnie.
11:21Girls.
11:22Little girls.
11:23So many girls.
11:24Hank's so outnumbered.
11:26I love everything that we talked about when we were walking through.
11:29Yeah.
11:30I feel like $75,000 would do it.
11:32It would be so much fun to do it again.
11:34Let's let them do it.
11:35Yeah.
11:36Okay.
11:36You want to do it?
11:37Let's do it.
11:38Let's do it.
11:39Let's do it.
11:40Be thrifty.
11:41You starting today?
11:42No.
11:43Um, I can show you some stuff.
11:46No.
11:46We'll come back and talk about the outside when it's not raining.
11:48We'll be right back and talk about the outside when it's not raining.
12:14We'll be right back and talk about the outside when it's not raining.
12:16And your big brother.
12:18Tom's not here yet.
12:19Tom's not here yet.
12:19I don't know if he's coming.
12:21Let's go.
12:22What's with this?
12:22I don't have no tools.
12:23I'm in charge, Jesse.
12:24Jesse, come back over here.
12:26I'm in charge.
12:26All right.
12:27Jeez.
12:29All right, let's do this.
12:48So you canceled class for this.
12:50I canceled it just for Jesse.
12:51Just for you, buddy.
12:52Thanks, man.
12:53Vanity didn't even take off work.
12:55No.
12:59You heard from Tom?
13:00He never showed.
13:01I wanted to get out of it, too.
13:05I wish we could keep this blue tile on this wall,
13:09but I don't know what we'll do ultimately, because we're going to have,
13:11I think budget will only handle a prefab vanity.
13:14But let's just see how much of the blue we can save on this wall.
13:25That mirror is hanging by a thread now.
13:28This scares me.
13:31We did it.
13:33It did great.
13:35Pretty impressive.
13:35I feel like that never happened.
13:40There's pretty tile back there.
13:45I think that is some super 70s tile.
13:47Look, I'm excited.
13:49Anything we can find that is usable that could become beautiful.
13:51It's super on board to keep it.
13:55I wanted to be an archaeologist when I was little.
13:58I wanted to dig for dinosaur bones.
14:00It's pretty close.
14:00This is it.
14:03What'd you find?
14:04Can y'all be delicate?
14:05Oh, I can be delicate.
14:06Sam's leaving.
14:08Nope.
14:08I want to uncover, unwrap the original vanity.
14:11My first thought was, let's just rip the whole vanity out
14:13and see if this continues behind it.
14:15But I really don't think it does.
14:25Hey.
14:26Yeah.
14:27That is so cool.
14:28O'Doyle rules.
14:30That's easy to clean off.
14:31Uh huh.
14:32To rework the vanity, we couldn't make it have double sinks,
14:35no matter what.
14:36Because the hole is cut in the center.
14:38So I called Lauren, and Lauren said she definitely would prefer double sinks over the original
14:44vanity with that backslash tile that we found.
14:47So we've got to just carefully cut the tile on the wall and remove the original vanity.
14:55Whatever we do, we just want to save money wherever we can.
14:58All of our big splurgy things have to happen in the kitchen.
15:02So if we can save money in the bathroom, I want to do it.
15:15Jesse and Lauren are coming by the house today while they're staying at Lauren's parents.
15:19So they're going to swing by and grab a couple of things while we're here working.
15:23We have a watercolor to show them, and that is exciting because they've already painted the house, and it looks
15:28great.
15:28While they're here, I want to just talk about the roof and how I think mid-century houses were less
15:34afraid to use color on the roof.
15:36What are y'all doing?
15:38Well, I got the painting ready to show them.
15:40Jesse!
15:42Come here!
15:44You want to see?
15:45Yeah, I want to see.
15:48You switch it off?
15:49I want to show you your house, but now I'm standing here realizing the trees are pretty obstructive.
15:54Preference on keeping all the trees that are close to the house?
15:57I don't mind getting rid of these two.
15:59Anyway, just something to think about because if you had no trees, this is what you would see.
16:05Super cool.
16:06I love that.
16:07I love the green roof.
16:09So my thinking was we went so green at your last house, and you still love it.
16:13We could have a roof that's just a solid dark green.
16:17Do you have anything that's kind of a little more funky?
16:19I have a shingle sample that definitely has, like, flecks of cream, light green, and dark green.
16:24Oh, I like that idea of the cream.
16:26Yeah, I think it could really bring out the color you fainted it.
16:29Yeah.
16:30I love what's going on here.
16:32This is a mid-century style house.
16:33If you did this mid-century modern mahogany custom-made door with a clear coat.
16:39That sounds really pretty.
16:40This railing was my idea because this wrought iron one is really loose, and it's pulled the anchors out of
16:48the brick.
16:49It has to be replaced.
16:50Replaced or fixed.
16:51I have cypress left over from a project.
16:53Oh.
16:54And so we could use it on there.
16:56Yeah.
16:57If we can save money wherever we can, we'd love that.
17:00Okay.
17:00Yeah.
17:00I'm trying to save money, like, everywhere.
17:02Anywhere we can.
17:03I love that.
17:04So the thing is, we're getting really close to bringing in cabinets and things like that, and I'd love for
17:09you to be surprised.
17:10What if I finish mowing?
17:12Yeah.
17:13If you can get, like, your last box of things, whatever that is.
17:16Yeah.
17:17All right.
17:17Let's get going.
17:18Yeah.
17:18Jason, show me how this mower works.
17:20All right.
17:21Careful with it.
17:22I think that's got a 300-pound rating.
17:25When you're designing a home that your family's going to live in, it won't end when they move in for
17:31us.
17:31It's going to keep going.
17:33So it's more than just a house that needs help.
17:35This is, like...
17:36It's the backdrop to our family.
17:38Yeah.
17:46So I hear you got some issues with this bathroom tile.
17:49Yeah, you can say that.
17:50We got to talk to David about the bathroom because I know that...
17:53This is a different kind of tile problem.
17:54I love the bathroom tile for once.
17:57Right.
17:57And I want to use every bit of it that's here, but I'm really scared that you're about to tell
18:02me something awful.
18:04What's going on?
18:05Look here at this corner.
18:06You got a broke tile.
18:07Where's it at?
18:08Well, it was here.
18:09And now it's not.
18:10We don't know where that piece went.
18:12I'm sure...
18:13So it's here somewhere, right?
18:14It got nicked and then hit the floor, and I guess it got scooped up and carried out with the
18:20rest of the trash.
18:21We really need that.
18:22It is what everything I'm designing hinges on.
18:25Like, if the tile is not there, the whole bathroom design falls apart.
18:29But also, we need it for money.
18:32Well, I've got to keep this tile.
18:33We are not changing the tile.
18:35It's a vintage tile.
18:36It's worth saving.
18:38It's beautiful.
18:38This area here.
18:40Well, that's about to fall off the wall right there.
18:43Oh, yeah.
18:43It's just loose.
18:44I just take all the loose ones out, cut some of this grout out, restickle.
18:48Currently, the problem that we have is that we don't know what happened to these.
18:52Someone has thrown them away.
18:54I can do that.
18:54There are places you can find it.
18:56I'm gonna find it.
18:57Yeah, I guarantee you can't find that.
18:59It's a vintage tile.
19:00That corner is gonna be near impossible to find.
19:04What are you gonna do with this floor?
19:05This floor is getting new tile.
19:07We're gonna do an inexpensive white hex mosaic tile on the floor.
19:12And it's just not making a statement because we want everything else in the room to make the statement.
19:15So, I'm gonna go check the dumpster.
19:17Y'all keep talking about where you're gonna find it online and all that?
19:21We got a bet going on.
19:23He's not gonna find it.
19:25It's gonna be tough if he does.
19:27See what you can find.
19:28All right, what do I get if I win?
19:29Pot roast with rice and gravy.
19:36I think that I'm gonna be the one to find the tile because we had it and now we don't,
19:41which means it's here.
19:44I think the chances of you finding that very corner piece that came off of the wall is so slim.
19:53It's gonna be like finding a baby sock in a dumpster.
20:06That's it.
20:07I'm pretty sure I found what will work.
20:10Pot roast.
20:10did you find well i haven't i haven't looked that close i have found a corner piece i found
20:15a corner piece this ought to work if i can get it off in one piece yes it's got me
20:20a corner
20:30chicken coop 101 if your wife wants it you build it you build it so why and jesse build this
20:37well lauren told me that it would be a dream come true if they could have gardens and chickens
20:44sis is making her own bread she's gonna be also making her own eggs i was raised on a chicken
20:50farm
20:50but like a commercial one there were no coops i have no experience with chicken coops but i've
20:55been reading you can put six chickens in a 36 square foot chicken coop that's what you need
21:02okay i think we could put it in the front yard somewhere to the side for me the most important
21:07thing about the chicken coop is that hank and nail and future baby napier can open and access the eggs
21:14because think about how exciting that is that every morning to go out and get eggs from the chicken coop
21:20for breakfast so here was my thought this is all scrap stuff from the factory that i've just been
21:25compiling over here this is all spanish cedar because i want it to be a pretty chicken coop yes
21:30of course i'm gonna buy two sheets of plywood everything else will be scraps it should be
21:35like a little small thing here's what i saw in my mind's eye i thought it would be like five
21:42feet
21:43wide maybe seven feet high egg box wall these boxes need to be between 12 and 20 inches off the
21:50ground
21:50the chickens need to feel like they have privacy and comfort so they can lay their eggs and so then
21:55you
21:55have a screen door here or you know chicken wire the chickens having their little privacy wall here
22:01of slats this is all screen you gotta have the little ladder those chickens can't fly and then i
22:09imagined it having wheels and on this end wheelbarrow style handles that you pick up one i'll pick up one
22:17and we'll move it together but this is definitely no taller than like seven feet at the tallest point
22:24i want to have some color i brought some color samples all right i trust you it's gonna be great
22:31so i'm essentially building a rickshaw but it's a chick shawl
23:00that's that's close okay feels a little tight right here can it go that way yeah sure
23:07and i know we'll have overhang for the bar yeah that feels way better i think this kitchen feels
23:12super comfortable especially with lots of kids lauren is going to freak out you know what'll make her
23:20really love this kitchen green quartzite yeah sure wish i could afford it i'm working on it i think
23:26i'm close like if we reuse their old dishwasher and i save money into a prefab vanity in the bathroom
23:32i've asked the moms to come help us paint so that should save us a little bit i think i'm
23:37like 500 away
23:52front door is going in today big moment i hate leaded glass that front door is terrible on this house
24:01it's not the time for a 1980s leaded glass
24:06man i like this door a front door is the taste maker of a house it really does tell you
24:12what to
24:13believe about this house so that's what i think this front door is going to do it's going to be
24:17transformative this is what tells the world the house is mid-century so this door is more modern
24:23than what we typically do but jesse and lauren really like that the things that lauren and jesse
24:29really gravitate toward is using natural wood wherever you can add it this front door does that
24:34i love this door how's it look looks great lauren has been really crazy about these european kitchens
24:55that are super minimalist that are all about function and then you'll see a checkerboard pattern on the
25:00backsplash this house is different it's a little bit funky so we have the terracotta and cream everywhere
25:06the countertops are going to be a dark green quartzite which we've never used before because
25:11it's crazy expensive but i can't wait to see that i know i'm being very splurgy we've saved money
25:17everywhere like this is a super budget terracotta look towel okay lauren wants terracotta towel floors
25:25i cannot afford terracotta towel floors but i can afford ceramic towel that is the color of terracotta
25:32it works with this also cheap version of zelige tile that's really not zelige but it's gonna look
25:40beautiful and we can do it under budget
25:50don't forget this is vintage if by some completely off chance you were to break this one tile i don't
26:02have a backup oh my goodness
26:09please be gentle
26:16oh easy
26:23it came off in my hand
26:25that is a lot of luck right there oh i thought wow wow i thought it broke off i thought
26:32it broke
26:32too there for a minute great job man i was worried about that one piece you saved the whole bathroom
26:38with a single towel micah say i saved the house when david took that towel and just carefully placed it
26:45in the spot it's like the house unlocked it unlocked its full potential for us good job that's what we
27:14have been here painting every minute they're not at work miss lynn hey you have been so busy i know
27:21so she started the dining room today and me and ben's mom are here and we're gonna try to knock
27:27out
27:27dining room and living room tonight lauren has said she's so so so thankful for y'all letting them stay
27:34i love them staying i don't want them to move i think you're lying i'm not lying i love having
27:41them
27:41painting is not fun but it's something that has to be done well anybody can do it you just have
27:47to
27:47want to yeah you know i don't really want to anymore i used to watch
27:51y'all we're getting a roof today and they are so fast if aaron gets her pick it's going to
28:04be a
28:05statement roof i get to do it this time we don't always so it's a fun day for me
28:19the floors are getting refinished that is exciting because that was the ugliest thing about the whole
28:24house jesse and lauren really wanted to sand the floor themselves we think this needs professional
28:30help those floors are in really rough shape i think it's going to cost about 2500 but it's important but
28:35now that you just see the clear beautiful oak it's so blonde and bright and i think a water-based
28:42clear coat is going to do the trick to keep it light so it doesn't become red with like an
28:48oil-based clear coat
28:53oh i'm so sorry the weather's like this today
28:59what a lovely day great day for moving thousands of pounds of stone the moment i saw it pop up
29:07on my
29:07calendar that we were going to get to get the stone today i have been giddy we've just never gotten
29:14to
29:15choose a colorful stone with so much movement that's so out of the ordinary that's so good i was so
29:21scared
29:21when i first saw the trailer coming because i saw the back side and it's gray and i was like
29:25oh it's
29:26supposed to be green this is so beautiful this is so cool y'all
29:35that was slick hey how does it look with the door i am so nervous about corners getting chipped off
29:40i know
29:42guys this is our first countertop that is a color i like that this is big it's so unexpected
29:50and so lauren and jesse it's so good that looks you like it i tried so hard to color match
30:00the front
30:00door to the countertop without having a sample of the countertop i was just going off of a picture
30:05i know that it was splurgy to get this countertop it was totally worth it we scrimped and we saved
30:10it just looks really expensive because it was because it was
30:24it was like the beach the ocean and the sand david's going to do the backsplash today really yes
30:44we got another problem in the bathroom i don't know david texted me okay
30:52i love it love it love it love it i've been so ready to see this wallpaper because that is
30:59what
30:59makes this all finally make sense this is the exact same color yes these blueberries match the towel it's
31:08all so youthful so we're taking this very old powder blue look that's dated but when you change
31:16the upper half of the wall it changes everything oh yeah what do you think i love it what's the
31:21problem david's gone now but he texted me that he didn't have much luck getting the blue tile off
31:28the board he tried soaking it and every time the tile would crack david had to cut out the old
31:33tile
31:34that was loose here so now we have a space that the vanity is not big enough to cover and
31:40we got to
31:40fill the gap all right now that i'm looking at it what if we just push the vanity this way
31:45so it touches
31:46the tile and then in that corner have a linen cabinet to the ceiling we could do like spice rack
31:53pull
31:53out drawers style so you could see from the side all your product cool because it's the only way we
31:58can
31:59deal with the tile hole look how good that tile looks right there that one tile that's so fun now
32:07we got to get marletta to refinish the tub i think it's in good shape it needs a cleaning more
32:12than
32:12anything cool
32:26there's no one in the door
32:28we can carry it every weekend
32:34all the sleeping bottles out i want to get you on the sun sky
32:58i don't know how chicken coopery works but lauren wants it real bad that'll be a huge surprise for her
33:10i'm so thrilled with how this house turned out it is so distinctly lauren and jesse they're colorful
33:18they're offbeat they admire the unusual and their house should reflect that the bathroom was the
33:26problem child of this house all in the pursuit of original tile was it worth it i think so the
33:33vanity
33:34was not expensive but i thought if we add custom hardware and it feels like it is you know it's
33:44really pretty similar we did an inexpensive sconce up there and it just had white shades but a painted
33:49stripes oh i love that did i go too far nope
33:57see the thing that's different is that i'm going to spend a lot of time in this house usually we
34:02finish a house and we say goodbye it's a special relationship with the whole design process
34:08yes when you really can envision yourself being a part of a project beyond completion welcome to the
34:17napier house holy cow i love it
34:26that looks so good my gosh that's awesome y'all this looks great
34:36you see that door really really look at the front door the door is custom built mahogany
34:43wow shoot i love the little window oh and the railing looks good not only does it look good it

34:50rock solid so hank and nail aren't gonna i love that i love the lines that it kind of creates
34:57with
34:57the windows the door the railing the windows it's very linear i love it and that is the theme of
35:05a
35:05mid-century house and we just kind of pushed it in there yeah i love that i love the green
35:09roof it's not
35:10too green either it's just so new and fresh yeah and the color is honestly kind of nondescript it
35:16looks very because you can't really see your roof i love it hey look at that over there whoa

35:37i love the wood yeah slatted look was you know to tie it to the house yeah i wanted it

38:51saving
38:52your dishwasher and reusing it yes using porcelain tile instead of a concrete i wouldn't know no one
38:59would know they're beautiful they're super affordable i like that it's like a matte finish
39:03to the tile then the backsplash was also a super affordable tile but you put it in an unexpected
39:09pattern and it becomes that's awesome i've never seen it like that i love the checkered pattern good
39:14we saved a lot of money using these cabinet door profiles these are the most affordable cabinet doors
39:20you could get this is the we didn't do anything fancy with the cabinet the cabinets are great the
39:25the handle is what makes it it looks like mid-century modern look you have double ovens
