Fixer to Fabulous Italy AFTER THE SHOW

This week, we have a very special house tour for you. You might have seen it on HGTV’s Fixer to Fabulous Italiano… Now that the TV crew have left, I meet up with my friends Rebecca and Pierre, owners of Campo Sasso, to find out all about the process of renovating a farmhouse in Chianti, with the help of a TV production company. Make sure you stay tuned until the end to see the amazing, state-of-the-art cheese cellar…

What a gorgeous dog at the start!

[@Lea-rf5tw]

Absolutely loved this video, the house is beautiful, watched it all, and alot of hard work and hurdles to climb, amazing, what a team. The cheese shop, well fabulous, I would just sit there all day with cheese and wine and probably get carried home. 😂 xxx

[@luzinparis]

OH mon Dieu. The cheese, the wine, the olives, the house. Je suis jalouse!!!!😉

[@viviennepastor3188]

As an Italian who currently lives in Australia I just have to say that your channel is fabulous. I hope to return to Italy one day and buy property. I am actually from Trieste but I am warming to Tuscany. Thank you so much for your dedication in showcasing how beautiful Northern Italy is.

[@AnnetteJosephstyle]

Thank you very much. I enjoy showing off our beautiful region of Tuscany. Thanks for watching x

[@U2BearCat]

I normally don't watch Jenny and Dave's Fixer to Fabulous but I did watch the Italian House Renovation. LUV'ED it.

[@goodphone156]

Very beautiful!!

[@kirkshrum6222]

Great video today Annette! I watched this HGTV series, great to see behind the scenes & what the home owner really is like. Cheers Kirk

[@AnnetteJosephstyle]

They did a great job, a beautiful home. Thanks as always Kirk. x

[@KMACKTIME]

We met Rebecca just the other day on a wine tour. She’s so friendly and was so much fun as our guide

[@AnnetteJosephstyle]

She's really lovely. Thanks for watching x

[@goodphone156]

OK in the second part of this video I could realize that you use also Italian cheese, well done !!

[@jamesarmel]

Amazing episode! Beautiful home. The cheese cellar was a twist I didn't see coming!

[@ibenglish]

I really liked this one and found it very interesting. Those bathroom taps cost about 1600+ a piece 😳. Nice jacket there Annette 👍🏻👍🏻 style!

[@AnnetteJosephstyle]

Thanks so much. Wow! I had no idea those were so expensive. All the kitchen and bathroom fixtures are from the US and were donated to the show. Thanks for watching.

[@barbieholicable]

I love love the Kitchen and that tub wow.

[@nevisscot7697]

Absolutely gobsmacked .stunning home and shop ..woww .

[@susanvelez6534]

I live in the town in Oregon where that blue cheese is made. Queen Elizabeth was sent several a week. She loved it 🙋🏻‍♀️🧡

[@AnnetteJosephstyle]

Oh wow!

[@lyndaflinn5172]

wow, what a place!

[@AnnetteJosephstyle]

I agree. Thanks for watching. x

[@ryanstuhr]

Jeez now I want a cheese cellar! Looks like so much attention those cheeses are getting 😅

[@reginamyers8856]

Love you, them, and both your lives!!!

[@AnnetteJosephstyle]

Thanks so much for watching. x

[@BD-wk5pc]

So cool Annette! I just love you first of all and I've been following a while. I caught this show at the time and great to see you following up. But...I just LOVED that mill house industrial place on the river! And yours of course!❤😊

[@AnnetteJosephstyle]

Wow, thank you!

[@reneephilander5592]

Thnk you so much ❤❤❤for sharing this video... I wanted to see the end results

[@AnneGrady-ms7zg]

What a great home…con formaggio

[@blakehahn-atlantaga8510]

Fabulous! Totally dreamy!

[@lisarapuano2426]

Just fabulous! ❤

[@AnnetteJosephstyle]

Thank you! 😊

[@cottageonoak]

Lovely ❤

[@user-or1mj2ph4w]

Annette ... your fabulous . I love your channel !

[@AnnetteJosephstyle]

Thank you so much!

[@LisaBrifoglio-uw1um]

Lol I said Saltburn as soon as you said wanting to lick the tub… great video

[@AnnetteJosephstyle]

LOL I just could not resist. That tub is incredible. Thanks for watching. x

[@thekah246]

Fantastic tour! Love!

[@AnnetteJosephstyle]

Thanks so much!

[@kathifailor4660]

Awe WoW very cool 😃✌️ everything!! Also, I'm sure when they had the house on TV they had everything done. It looks like she might have changed things obviously since the tv show. Or maybe they took out some of the furnishings and are going to furnish it more like the way they want it?? I'm just assuming that's what happened. Beautiful house. Lovely life! These two have so cuteeee 🥰

[@U2BearCat]

Rebecca (homeowner) mentioned that much of the furniture used for the final reveal was rented and the homeowner had an option to buy it.

[@summertyme9046]

This is great!

[@annedodd5888]

Beautiful renovation! Great taste! Wonderful cheeses!! Inspirational One question - could you add the link for the wallpaper shop in Firenze and their cheese shop ??Grazie mille.

[@AnnetteJosephstyle]

Ciao Anne, here you go www.ubfirenze.it/ the cheese shop is listed below in the video description.

[@stevengilleyOU812]

This is a great episode!

[@daliabajzath8459]

Interesting to see what happened after the show 😊 though I missed the 3rd bathroom. I presume Campo Sasso is not for rent right now as of missing furniture. Such a shame they didn’t kept the furniture - yes it’s “Hollywood” but people watching the show from US and Europe would have been eager to go and see it as a bonus to the wine tours or even renting it. As it is right now it lost it’s charm and the hard work what was done. I noticed that some pieces made by Silvio and Dave remained. 👍

[@AnnetteJosephstyle]

It is for rent. Go to the link below the video. 🙂

[@gigirocks9603]

Lovely lovely and lovely! Super fun. Much rather watch you Annette than HGTV. We need real baby, let's see it real! Grazie, Merci!

[@AnnetteJosephstyle]

xx

[@jennrowsell7868]

❤

[@maurawhelan3530]

Where in the US was the cheese from?

[@TAG993]

Annette you are so jealous. It’s too funny.

[@AnnetteJosephstyle]

Thank you for the feedback and thank you for watching.

[@TAG993]

@@AnnetteJosephstyle Always get a kick out of your videos. Love from Flat Rock,NC.

[@goodphone156]

Why you use French cheese and not Italian cheese?! That in my taste is superior!! T

[@AnnetteJosephstyle]

Pierre and Rebecca have a wine and cheese store, she explains in the video that her husband is from France. They have half French and half Italian wine and cheese in their shop.

[@phoenix-xu9xj]

Hoping Europe stops becoming more and more Americanised.

[@AnnetteJosephstyle]

Well I grew up here and it was different... but with the internet.... I am afraid that it's an impossible dream. Once Starbucks and McDonalds hit Italy we knew it would never be that different, right?
