📖 Our Story:
We bought this stone house in Italy during the pandemic in 2020. The house was a ruin and we saved everything we could, unfortunately that meant only four stone and clay walls! The back wall, against the terrain, was close to collapse; the roof beams were eaten and basically reduced to dust; the inside separation walls were easily taken down and the whole project turned into a heavy renovation/rebuild.
Follow our journey as we turn this old stone house into a beautiful home 😊.

Wow! Vince, I never cease to be amazed by how hard you will work to get a perfect result. The floor is simply beautiful. The shots at the end show a real appreciation for material used. I can imagine you and Maddi sitting in your living room, just relaxing, and both of you glancing at how the wall interacts with the floor, or how the light plays with the texture of the floor. You're artists in your field. Anyone who hires you will be so pleased with the result. Wishing you all peace in your old new home. Thank you for sharing.

[@NancysBungalowLife]

Your dedication to old school methods and your persistence in meeting your goals pay off! The terracotta tiles looks like it has always been there.

The neverending story of grouting LOL. I know it will be a great relief when all that bit is done!! It's shaping up so nicely. 🙂

Hey fans I see they are almost to 100K subscribers, I would love to see them get to 100K and see the KZbin plaque on their wall. Their hard work and dedication deserve it.

Thank you very much, we would never have imagined reaching this number!

[@nerther7625]

Wow, give that man a medal. Having said that, Maddi, I am sure you were doing something just as impressive as Vince was. Wow, that took a lot of physical work and patience and it will look so beautiful when you get it complete. Well done.

Thank you!

[@cathybrewer8958]

Just seeing the floor before putting the grout down, it didn't look bad but after, what a difference. So much nicer. Looks more complete. At least you only have to do it this one time. What a transformation for the whole house has been. Great work to both of you.

[@ateliermavi]

Yes we agree, it change a lot ❤️ thank you so much!!

[@catgynt9148]

What an amazing process you have for finishing your floors. Not just craftsmanship but creative artistry. ‘Twas nice of your furry companion to supervise the vacuuming and confirming that your mortar batches are a consistent color. Wishing you and your family a blessed week filled with gentle seasonally appropriate weather and restful evenings. Peace

[@ateliermavi]

Thank you very much 🤗

[@sorensenDKuki]

Caiù approved, she was checking on the process and making sure all was going well. She also did a sleep test to make sure it was comfortable. That floor is looking wonderful, it will get better as time goes on. As always, excellent work!

Thank you 🤗

You are both such diligence, hard-working, and exacting builders! While watching, it made me think about your parents, your influences and your own interests as they converge in this place, on this land, and in this home. I see a book in your future! 🙏🥰💃🏻 thank you for sharing your journey 💞

I don’t think you should be dissatisfied with it, I think it looks mellow and a little aged.

Wish i could teach you (as a pastry chef) how to hold and use the pastry bag more practically and effectively. 😂😂 Hate to see you precing in all the wrong spots ,making it harder for you. Either way you both are the living example to "where there is a will there is always a way". Great work

[@ateliermavi]

We will still have to use the bags A LOT so any advice is welcome, particularly coming from a pro 😄

[@janel4582]

@@ateliermavi I second that!

[@user-uv4qo9ln2e]

@@ateliermavi So its always better when you push from the top of the bag. If you are pushing from the middle part of the bag , most of the material is going back up, and not downwards. If you have to push from the middle,make sure you are making a very tight stop with your fingers. Also... Always pushing with your "good" hand from the top and guiding with your "bad" hand close to the tip. This will might feel more difficult when starting but gets really efficient once you fell comfortable with it. Did some stone walls my self at my place and piping bag skils came really handy..😁😁
