I remember years ago when all I would watch was HGTV. Fast forward to 2016, and I only watch a couple shows that interest me. I haven't even viewed the Dream Home which has sat on my DVR since January 1.
One show that I never miss on Tuesday evenings is Fixer Upper with Chip & Joanna Gaines. I just adore their farmhouse style, and their witty banter back and forth. You can instantly get a sense that this couple loves each other and loves what they do.
Do you watch?
I adore the "befores" and afters".
I wonder what they do with that reveal large photo of the "before"???
I was excited when J received Austin, TX as one of his markets recently because it is pretty close to Waco where Chip & Joanna reside and have a business, Magnolia Market. I thought I'd be able to travel there easily, but instead he acquired Knoxville, TN. I will get there some day for sure.
Chip and Joanna Gaines own and operate Magnolia Homes, a remodeling and design business in Waco, Texas, and "Fixer Upper" shows the process by which the couple turn dilapidated but potential-rich houses into showplaces that are helping revitalize whole neighborhoods throughout central Texas. Chip manages the construction and realty side of Magnolia and Joanna is the lead designer. They also act as part-time counselors to clients who can't see a structure's beauty beyond the blemishes. Combined, Chip and Joanna save homes that look hopeless, renovating the imperfect, and revealing them as what they were always intended to be.
If you like old (read: decaying, falling down, long forgotten) homes and the idea of loving one back to life, you need to watch this show.
I also LOVE the Magnolia blog. If you are not following, you should.

Finally, Fixer Upper is a great show to watch on HGTV. I just hope they are around for a long time.
If you're in the Waco area, please stay at their new Bed & Breakfast and let me know how it was. I just love its design.
