Custom Light SHATTERS During Install

[@BirdYoumans]

There are houses, and there are homes. You two have built a home! And it's beautiful!

[@ptcclatlptcclatl1683]

Absolutely beautiful!!

[@teresafrankel]

So true.

[@derekutt1809]

Well said!!

[@anselg.2439]

I love your beautiful home.

[@shaolinmonkey3115]

They say, home is where the heart is, and this home has been given a heart by a fantastic family. Amazing..

[@brentcranford]

Josh was all heart when he said “It’s one glass lighter”.... too funny. Y’all are an awesome example of what couples are supposed to be like. Love y’all

[@realbadgolfer711]

The shot of Chuck and his cat buddy on the porch was so cute.

[@GeeFactor40]

Josh & Erin, this video has "Master Class" written all over it. You guys are NEVER boring to watch.

[@jonbarnard7186]

Nothing harder than finding nice lighting. You guys did a great job.

[@tacx1]

Josh, I have been an electrician 58 years. 😩. I feel your pain. Been there. You two show such good attitude with everything you do.

[@amjorgy1]

Erin "it's really heavy!" Josh "well it's a piece of glass lighter now!" Lol

[@gusfusses44]

yep that was the best line ever. I laughed so hard.

[@richysee]

I'm sorry to learn of the demise of one of those beautiful lights. Here in Australia we never use screw into wood for heavy hanging light fittings. Too much risk that many years later with changes to the lumber condition the screws could let go and someone could be underneath. We always use screw/bolt through the wood horizontally with nut & loctite in order to impart double safety.

[@suedorfman7138]

Oh my gosh!!!! Those lights look incredible. Great job installing them. I am so impressed the way you two work together. You are definitely a team.

[@tonywentworth3225]

You should be very proud of your achievements, what a gorgeous family home you have created !

[@judyshallstrom415]

I was holding my breath. I like your response, it's just a piece of glass. It really is, just a piece of glass. Thank goodness your children were otherwise engaged. You have the best attitude about what ever happens. 💖

[@NielsNL68]

They where lucky no of the child's where looking from below on how paps and mams where hanging the lights :(

[@mandyleeson1]

I’m wondering whether you need glass in those lights at all. They have a beautiful effect. The house is looking magnificent. Thank you for sharing🙏🏻

[@markseare9274]

Mandy Leeson I thought the same thing!

[@melwel9116]

Yeah, I agree with Mandy and all replying here. Get rid of all the glass; it's only there in case of outdoor use. I've actually got a foyer lantern of the same general type, and I took the glass out so I could feather dust it easier and not have to windex the glass every few years.

[@canescup12]

I agree the glass isn't needed. They will be much brighter also without the glass, especially when dirty.

[@jamesduncan2620]

I'll second or third that.

[@mattmoschkau84]

I don’t know how you manage to do it but your ideas are just coming together perfectly. I spent months home shopping and never saw a single that just fit together the way yours does. It’s a masterpiece.

[@ColHogan-bu2xq]

What I REALLY love about you guys is that you ALWAYS keep a smiley, positive attitude.

[@raynall3593]

Yall were right, those lights are perfect for that style of house, looks so good. I can see why you waited so long for them. Good choice. All the talk about them being so heavy had me worried that you might have one fall trying to get it up there but the planning worked out and once again, Josh made it look easy.

[@JoJeck]

Great production values, the video and sound plus music and sound effects is superb. So much better and more authentic than anything on cable or broadcast TV. Plus you two and your family are much more entertaining.

[@pamelar5868]

So glad no one was hurt from broken glass. It is pretty amazing to see /hear you all take in stride these set-backs and surprises. The lights are beautiful!

[@gatesjuniorreloading3470]

Keep holding each other and loving one another and your family. Those are the real important things.

Oh wow this the light looks so beautiful. I hope you can do a house tour now that it complete. What separates you from many is the unity that shines through. The commitment to work together as husband and wife is so amazing to watch. You love so visible in both your eyes. You have what many can only dream of, a beautiful, solid family. Stay blessed, Stay safe 🙏

[@2CODO1963]

Glad no one got hurt when that pane slid out. Glass can be real nasty and you dodged the bullet on this one. This might be a sign that you should remove all the panes since they aren't serving any purpose on an indoor light fixture. You two are doing such an amazing job of creating your homestead and raising three wonderful youngsters while simultaneously starting a farm.

[@travisbenjamin4471]

Glass panes do serve a purpose on any light fixture indoor or outdoor. Indoors you aren't worried about moisture, obviously, but they do reflect and diffuse the light to some degree.

[@2CODO1963]

@@travisbenjamin4471 That is true at first. However, the glass will soon collects dust and a film from indoor pollutants that will reduce the diffusion of light.

Those lights make such a beautiful statement. Wrought iron accents, accessories, & furniture give a fancy touch to everything.

[@elainehernandez1952]

Watching you two work together is like watching a well choreographed dance. The way you two move to complement the other and end with a beautiful finish is just a wonderful thing to see. Your home is turning out better with each finished project.

[@dennis2376]

I trust Josh's experience as electrician. :)

[@timmorrow8909]

Those lights are amazing! As is the house!

[@NVidea-yz1fg]

They should paint the lamp insides over the kitchen counter in gold/brass. That would look classy and would also give more light.

[@Feejer1]

"just make the interior of the house POP" words that should that never be uttered by an electrician :0 Love the show and what you both are doing for your family. Lots of good information from Josh on how to wire things, as well as the overall build series. Keep up the good work.

[@gudfarfar]

Those lights really stands out! It became like a cathedral feeling to your house with those massive lamps. Very nice.

[@eklix2451]

You guys are AWESOME! Speechless and at awed of what you have accomplished. You two and your kids are an inspiration to any family. Exemplary example to anyone and whoever would like to follow your footsteps. Keep up the great work!! Amazing!

You both have amazing taste in lighting, those are gorgeous. The best thing is nobody got hurt and glass is replaceable. You have a great attitude with this mishap. Love all your videos.

Your boys are so much like our boys were growing up on a farm and living a rural family life. Great kids, great family..

[@rob1sullivan]

Looks amazing guys.i feel your pain on the glass josh so frustrating when something like that happens. Erin great job battling through the heights and sickness not easy.

[@sktyby]

Hey, it's clear glass. You probably wouldn't even notice it's missing. Plus it's one less panel to clean. 😉

[@josh-vee]

Wonderful video. Personally, I wouldn't bother replacing the glass, I would remove all the other glass from all the lights instead. It's not like it's reflective or lensing glass, so it doesn't amplify the light in any way, so you can barely tell it's there, and really, the glass is only there for if you install them outdoors, and if you remove all the other glass, it will make the lights lighter, safer, and cleaning the dust off the glass won't be a thing. 😉

[@josh-vee]

OOPS, I just noticed that many other commenters are saying the same thing. Oh well, it just means it's a good idea hehe.

[@thefleming7950]

What you said👍

[@iamjackyo.7265]

Right, with what happened, for me, its not safe to keep the glass, i mean, it just fell off that easily..

[@CKilger12]

i agree ditch the glass altogether. I Actually just upgraded some lights in my house.....glasses FTW

[@wkjeom]

@@josh-vee -- I know. I put my comment too before I read the others. I just think we are all concerned about their safety. The light fixtures would also be lighter and safer without the extra weight from the glass. They are beautiful. Styles change with the times. I took out of whole lot of similar fixtures and threw them away in a house I bought. Now that style is back. :)

[@That_dude91]

I think you guys are doing a tremendous job being the most amazing parents to your kids. It's really such a beautiful thing to see. I enjoy all the building and daily chores type of content on here (and now also your second channel) but it always warms my heart to see how wonderful you are with your kids. Thank you for that.

[@FalloutConspiracy]

After seeing how easily that glass panel got knocked loose and shattered on the floor, I would advise taking out all of the glass for safety reasons. It will lessen the load capacity, which will help in reducing the amount of strain being put on the screws. Other than that, everything looks great.
