My Little ITALIAN HOUSE Master Bathroom RENOVATION (from Start to Finish!)

A rather large bathroom especially for Italy standards and I was able to place the wonderful vintage bathtub right in the heart of it. I love the colour of the walls too!
Julie in Italy (Finally!) 🇮🇹✨
Authentic Italy, Delivered to Your Doorstep! 🏡🍝
I've put a lot of thought into this new channel, @julieinitaly and decided now is the perfect time to take the plunge. My @AmericanViscountess KZbin channel has seen incredible growth since its inception, now boasting over 213k subscribers. Our "Castles, Manors, and Stately Homes" content is also licensed by Little Dot Studios www.littledotstudios.com and is featured on their various KZbin and FAST channels, such as @RealRoyalty (with 1.2 million subscribers), @ChronicleMedieval - @AbodeLDS (interior design and renovation), and more. Thank you all for being part of this journey! 🙏🏻
Given the popularity of my Little Italian House renovation vlogs on the @AmericanViscountess channel-some of which have surpassed 1 million views-it made sense to launch a dedicated channel, @julieinitaly Thank you for your continued support! 🎉
At the launch of @julieinitaly I'll be uploading archive vlogs from the past three years to help build the channel. Starting in July 2024, you'll get to enjoy fresh and exciting content. The kitchen renovation videos will continue to be uploaded on @AmericanViscountess and eventually on @julieinitaly It may seem a bit confusing, but rest assured, you'll get a healthy dose of Italy on both channels until the end of 2024 when we fully transition. Phew, and thank you! 🥳
Please subscribe to @julieinitaly - it costs nothing and helps me grow the channel. 🙏🏻❤️📈

Julie, your joy is so refreshing. Having Malcolm there, is just pure magic! Congratulations 🎉🎉

[@julieinitaly]

Thank you so much!!

[@user-bu8vd4il8i]

Love that you grouted it with dark grout. It makes it look like an old wood floor. ❤

[@mysettingsmysettings2997]

Your bathroom is worthy of a magazine.

[@silviablue9889]

Mixed metals are fine and I love the rust look that rust color is beautiful. As long as the pieces make you happy it’s fantastic!!

Your excitement is so inspiring 💖 Lovely results❤

[@julieinitaly]

Thank you so much!!

[@user-bu8vd4il8i]

Those flea markets are to die for. You have found wonderful, unique things for your home. Love your bathtub.! I would not have taken the rust off either. That makes it just perfect for your bathroom. ….❤

[@TheNoviceHomeCook]

You are just so wholesome and down to earth, you have the funds, stately hom, title etc yet you are so kind and so wonderfully genuine. Just love you and your channels. Thank you, thank for being you and sharing your wonylife xx

[@julieinitaly]

Thank you so much!

[@andreaschmall5560]

I don't get the half and half paint colors on the walls. So many beautiful stencils, tiles and textured finishes to choose from that have the authentic Italian vibe that if paired with your other décor would knock it out of the park.

[@gwenhunter8454]

The wooden clothes pegs are great for making dolls with to….. #childhoodthings 😂

[@janemaryagnes]

Confused ……. Was this filmed several years ago ?

[@miaserafina]

Yes. She writes it in the Info box. These are archive videos that are also posted on her other chanel. She wants to post them in the next weeks until she catches up.

[@darlenechandler2403]

I was getting confused too, because everything had been renovated, except the kitchen, so these are all repeats.

[@bettycarvalho7060]

Hi...I saw that beautiful chandelier you got for your bedroom..with that beautiful Patina...however if you want to clean it out try using a mix of baking soda + lemon or white alcohol vinagre with a pinch of neutral detergent...works wonders... This is also good for jewels..real or not.. it brings back the shining of all metals.

[@elizabethzapac3203]

I LOOOOVE the rust on the bathtub!! And the warehouses you shared are AMAZING!! Thank you, as always, for taking us along for the ride!

[@julieinitaly]

Thanks for watching!

[@OBXDewey]

Yeah, this is another of your channels I'm hooked on. I've built homes for Habitat for Humanity, remodeled homes, and love antiquing. Never been to Tuscany but I love it. I was stationed in Great Lakes, IL. and had a blast. It is way cool you lived near Sandwich, IL. Coincidence??? 😊

[@lynettewalker9744]

Soo much to look at I would lose sight of my want and need list😂

[@bestgirl1956]

I really hate to be a Debbie downer but it would be a crying shame to paint over the bird painting on those beautiful headboards.

[@kataleen7962]

Smile I on the other hand loves when Julie loves something she tells you! I understood not that she would repaint it but the lines of wooden bed is what she was looking for, not the delicate flowers of a different style...

[@user-qr4cw7qj9d]

I agree. I, too, like the stencil painting on the headboards. Are they historic? Looks whimsical. However, I trust Julie's taste. When I see Julie's design that she has in mind, I'll probably understand the look she's going for.

[@ColleenWarner-ps5eb]

As @kataleen7962 said, Julie was pointing them out as inspiration but said she was not buying them, but looking for something with similar lines.

[@donnapecoraro3126]

Dear Julie, I don’t know if you’re aware of this but in the notifications from KZbin they’re using your channel to sort of click bait for gossip channels about the Royal family. Wish I could insert a screen shot here to show you. For example it will say: Mapperton Live, (your video title), viewers also watch this channel. The channel they’re pushing is a gossipy much lower level channel. I feel like it really brings your channel down by associating it with that type of always inaccurate gossip.

[@chavahbateli3355]

@donnapecoraro yes, very annoying of KZbin to do....😢

[@susansweeney1069]

Love the new bath and the colour scheme for the house, especially the wooden floor tiles. 🇬🇧

[@terrecisco2467]

I loved this the first time I love it more now!

[@robbiemoriarty7499]

Love the rust on the tub. Love mixing metals. Wonderful the sketchbook returned to your library.

[@maryenglish9314]

Thank you Julie! Julie in Italy takes me to Italy with you! ❤️

[@tammyr2966]

I absolutely love the bathroom! It’s so pretty! So many beautiful things at the antique markets! I love the chandeliers! I also love how you incorporate new with old!

[@Skattie]

Love it ,love it, bathrooms are so needed for chilling out in , and getting scrubbed clean ❤

[@lorraineearle5967]

Julie, can I ask how much you purchased your home for in Italy? Love it! The bathroom is very beautifully curated. 🌞

[@DonnaBall-om1wz]

Such fun watching the transformation of your little Italian house. I cannot wait to see what is next!

[@pile333]

Nice personal taste and touch. Keep up the good work!

[@joshir1834]

Oh my goodness! Julie your house is going to look so unique and beautiful! Thank you for taking us through the antique markets ❤ Imagine the history behind every single object! I am definitely going to visit them when I come back to Italy. I can’t wait for the next video.

[@hispid1]

beautifully done Julie

[@Carlaskirt]

Great channel- very beautiful and refreshing! ❤️😊

[@Abuelita654]

Watching your video in my apartment in New York I love European decor. I have quite a bit of it so I am quite enjoying watching you decorate your home in Italy. You’re doing a fantastic job.!!!!!

[@Nickysmom]

Why not brown grout to make he grout disappear?

[@karenkinyone613]

I absolutely love this series ! I just found you on here ! And I’m so excited for you and to watch everything you are doing to your new Home! I have always wanted to move to Italy ! I just think this is great !

[@beccabonk1]

I love the sconces above the bathroom sink. Great score as they say!

[@Pam7555]

The grout pens are the best!! Before I sold my condo, I used the white pens to refresh the old white grout in my shower. It looked like a brand new shower when it was all done.

[@miriammuskal5402]

Thanks for the vlog, a joy. Just one thing... the latter half was incredibly confusing .. there were jumps from one visit apparently to the next; then loud music over talking then an end which just cut off without explanation.. very strange..😆

Loved seeing the Huge Warehouses full of Antiques, the Venetian Chandeliers were magnificent, the old hand painted wardrobes, and storage cupboards with labels for herbs were all so fun! I could get into so much trouble there- in a good way! Love the lamps and really everything you've hunted for and found at great prices- a person after my own heart. Love that the person left- (in a place she figured you'd again visit!)- the Viscountess Lady Rosemary Hinchingbrook's sketchbook- (hope I have that right). Perhaps the sketchbook is from her younger years, but showing great aptitude at a younger age for the Artist she was to become. That was so kind and thoughtful. Your bathroom tub is great- and love the lights- especially the chandelier overhead. Have you ever seen the antique or newer bamboo racks they make for footed bathtubs that span the tub width and allow for soap, washcloths, etc? Some are simple, some larger with wine holder and even holder for an iPad, lol. They also have metal soap & sponge holders that have hooks that hang on side (inside) of the tub...these could be useful. You really make Europe in general, and Italy in particular sound so interesting and attractive. Love the Flea markets and you sharing a feel for the history, people and places you visit. Your Italian house is delightful! Thanks for sharing!

[@IFSTherapist]

Last touch I would do it treat the feet on the tub to rustproof. And pain the claw feet in the same bronze to match the mirror. And yes, of course, ... Love! Love! Love! the rust on the side of the tub. But just think the feet would give it that extra pizzazz and finish it off in a really classy way. Patti Bee, Madison, Wisconsin -- love your content Julie and love your style.

[@joyendrei3822]

Julie, Would you be willing to share your ethnic background? Are you Italian or just love the Italian culture? Your passion for your Italian home is so sweet!

[@julieinitaly]

I just love Italy!

[@Cali-ForniagirlinMichigan]

Hi Julie, 👋 My name is Susie, I live in the states and I’m new to your channel. I am loving the beauty of not only your home but seeing Italy through your eyes, you enthusiasm is contagious 😊❤ Thank you for walking us through all your work and the shops with all those antiques ❤❤❤, I love antiques. I do have a question I hope you can answer, I bought a beautiful table lamp with gorgeous crystals hanging all around it and when I cleaned the crystals the wires what hole them started breaking, any idea what I might get to replace them but make them look authentic? Thank you for sharing all of this wonderful country and town that your house is in, I’m enamored and would love to walk through the town, I’m living vicariously through you 😊❤ Be well, stay safe and God Bless

[@snowbirdlady7221]

It was so nice to see a bit more of your town. Very charming! I was so excited to see the grout pens!! I know that is a weird comment, but when I chose the grout for my master bath it was supposed to be the same in the tiled shower and on the floor (even though the tiles are different). The contractor didn't use the correct grout and like yours it looks almost white. I hate white grout. I'm going to google for those pens, but if I don't find them, could your provide a link? I hope I can get them in the US! Grazie Mille Julia!

[@lisadurban3525]

Just a suggestion -The indentation in the field could have been an area of ground which was a reservoir or pond for cattle to drink from. Or has been dug out for another reason.

[@maisonlorraine]

Can you order from Riccardo Barthel? I would love to use some of these fittings in my reno.

[@debramoss4089]

Enjoying this renovation...At the end will you give a general price of the property, and all the costs spent to renovate?? If I am being too nosy I'm sorry..

[@MaggieG121]

I'm really enjoying the renovations of your piccolo casa (not sure I spelled that correctly) and the wonderful views of Tuscany. I have always wanted to live there myself and you are so blessed. In the 2nd bedroom, is the wood feature a door or window or something? I'm especially excited about the kitchen Reno and can't wait to see it finished. But then your reno's will be over and I won't get to see more of tuscany! :D

[@julieinitaly]

Lots more fun content coming even after the renovations are over. xx Julie

[@rosieposie8695]

I’m confused I seen a post where u had finished the house now we are back in time ?

[@Maximusrex4575]

It's too bad then grout lightened up so much from when you first showed us. Glad you found a solution. For citrus trees, if you didn't find an on the street solution, I would be you could setup some kind of automated watering system on your roof top patio.

[@Noniinthebush]

Hi from Australia. What city is that amazing antique market in ? Cheers

Please paint the outside of the tub with a rust-resistant paint. Thanks.

I love what you're doing with your Italian House, but I do have a question about the weather in England. Why is it always gloomy and overcast and not much sun?

[@tinashockley2782]

Where do you fly into get to this amazing town?

[@Danigys]

You doing great work and hunting for antique pieces, however, the mustard color of the bathroom is too much. But then, we were wondering if perhaps the camera view/lighting is different than actual color.

[@munchie1ist]

Hey Julie, I will so have to get in contact with you, as I have a dream too of owning a property in Italy. I still have family in Northern Italy and in a very small town where my grandmother and my mother and my uncle and my grandfather were born. We still have the same house and I am hoping to purchase the property from family, so I can have it as a respite for people who I work with - who suffer from PTSD - so travelling from Australia to Italy, will be a big trip for people, (where I’m from) but it will be a sanctuary and it will be a peaceful calming environment in a very very old historic villa right on the Swiss Alps and right on the Italian Alps, so I would love to contact you to run ideas through - as to how you have done it - because this is a very big deal for me and I love watching your videos it’s very inspiring and touches my heart. I am also wanting to capture this journey on KZbin and create a channel around this. Lots of love for now and keep making those videos. Tracey. Xx
