Part 21 Potters House. working through the porch and attic... and still finding some treasures!

[@magicskyway]

IT NEVER ENDS. And I'm okay with that.

[@hoby7439]

I got a tiny bit emotional listening to Hannah play - I was just thinking about how happy Mary would have been to have her house filled with beautiful music and young people bringing life out of her old piano. I don’t want this series to end! Thank you, Alex - and Hannah!

[@guambyguambelle1864]

That entry porch looks amazing! The house is "breathing" again. Thanks for your preservation work!

[@guardianminifarm8005]

I liked the osb look, but it definitely has a cleaner look painted.

[@yoursisterfromanothermiste6696]

Seeing those “for sale” signs in the yard gave me a hint of sadness though.

[@davidpietarila699]

That piano... so many people that have come through this project have sat down and played that piano. It’s like the heart of the house reminding you that it’s still alive.

[@teresadale3130]

You must be a magnet for talented people. Lol

[@elmarobberts5128]

Ikr. Amazing. How about putting together a 'Potter Band'? We'd love to see y'all jamming together in the house.

[@richardcline1337]

And those twins are about as cute as anyone could ask for. It's great to see that there are still some teens that aren't of the "you owe me everything" class. I hate to see this set of videos end. Such a great transition of a really nice house.

[@basstrammel1322]

@@richardcline1337 I'm having a hard time finding the kind of teens your refering to, Richard. Yesterday I met a group of teenagers picking trash in the forest, and all of them asked if they could pet my dog. They brought trash bags with them while playing frisbee-golf. Last Saturday a shady looking skateboarder helped an old guy picking up some fruit he knocked over at my local supermarked. I've seen random kids and young people help out those who struggle with the self check out system there, too. Don't worry, there is a lot of good hearted teenagers out there.

[@jeffreymontgomery7516]

Everybody has talents if you care to find out what they are...

[@thequirkysquirrel5449]

Love that you never know what to expect on your videos. You get antiques, remodeling, music, comedy. A regular variety show.

[@mrbubbles5333]

I what to tell Hanna something. At 9:36 she played a song on the piano. I loved it so much I went and found it The River Flows In You is now my favorite piano piece. So thank her for that

[@UnbelievableSeries]

It's actually pretty popular amongst the Twilight fans

[@sandranokes7443]

Don't you see! This house is magical. Another artist, playing the piano. You can't go into this house without it reaching out and touching people. Either the magical artists who come there, or us, a very captivated audience, who love's this place and will miss it terribly when we won't see it anymore.

[@Princesshelyne]

I love that so many wonderful artist have worked on the house. Thank you Hanna for your lovely music

[@Distressedwoman]

Hannah is such a sweet talented girl and I’m sure Mary smiles hearing the house filled with music again from Heaven.

[@judychapman1868]

Alex, I have so enjoyed watching The Potter's House renovation, it hasn't just been the house being restored but you interacting with old and new friends that helped. Having family that volunteer to help show how much you are loved. Thank you for taking time out of your life to film and share this journey with us. Judy

You might as well go to Update 20... nice round number. ;)

[@discerninglight1998]

How wonderfully hilarious that the house produced a cure cough book for you!! The house is looking so good!

[@tigermoon44]

That front porch will sell the house! I would buy it for that because I love reading in a sunlit room. It looks lovely!

[@Lauraphoid]

I would love to fill it with sun-loving plants and a nice couch!

[@yoursisterfromanothermiste6696]

I’m sad she didn’t get to see the final product. I hope her family appreciates everything.

[@jusmeinia7]

@@Lauraphoid Oh yes! Lots of plants, palms and Geraniums in the window! Would have to have wicker furniture to complete the look, I wish I had a porch like that!

[@TiaMat99]

Maybe it's time for a four-handed performance!

[@suzannejensen275]

Austin Don't stop believing in yourself you are very talented and still so young remember practice makes perfect. The two of you did an amazing job playing considering the piano was put of tune and no telling how long it's been since the last time anyone had played it. I'm trying to remember if one of the guys played chopsticks or something like that on that piano. By the way you did a beautiful job on the doors.

[@SprucedandGussied]

Alex, you spoil us so! Please accept my gratitude.

[@nubiaflores547]

How funny you found the curing coughs book! Lol

[@bec_r_r]

My fave room - the front porch. Your father in law, he is great.

[@danielledenis9863]

mine too! Would love to have my coffee and read a book there, watching it snow

[@Scroggs2017]

I love that piece. It’s called River Flows in You by Yiruma. She did really well considering the piano is off.

[@ejwilliams2002]

Yes!!! Absolutely loved that piece.

[@maryc4745]

Thank you for identifying the song! Off to find it ... ❤

[@centrifugedestroyer2579]

Yeah, but it's a shame the piano is so much off. It became worse compared to previous videos, likely due to the rapid change in weather.

[@nsejita]

I only knew the Cat version! :O

[@pumpkinpie897]

The piano piece was lovely. The place looks great.

[@julieschneider5973]

That scrap of paper with Mary’s signature practice is an AMAZING find!

[@specialk9486]

Is Mary's pottery stamp maybe also supposed to look like a B when turned? So it can be both an M for Mary and B for Borgstrom? Just a thought I had while looking at all her practice designs.

[@charliemansonUK]

It's both exciting to see the house getting close to finished...and sad as we will soon be saying goodbye... But you just know Mary is looking down with pride, that's why she gave you the book on traditional 1930's cough treatment! I hope you read it through... Charlie 🇬🇧

Amazing job Alex. When I watched the first episode I was itching to jump in and help you clear everything out. I rush til the job is done.

I can’t say I’m sorry to see this series end because I’ll watch again and again 😊

[@willowraine725]

Wow, I guess I'll have to stop complaining about the rain in Indiana. I was surprised to see snow in this episode, The house is really shaping up. The entryway is really looking good.

[@edjo487]

Well, you mentioned tauntauns and Hannah played Yiruma amazingly well...the quality of your show is really impressing me more and more each time I watch! Anything Star Wars wins me over. Hannah has some chops too. She really played an extremely difficult song rather well off the cuff on an untuned piano! Great job Hannah! These are very informative, intelligent, and interesting shows. It can take up to 75 people or more to do a reality show for television and most are not even near the quality of what you produce. You really know what people enjoy watching as well which is key and you leave out the tacky glitz most KZbinrs seem to rely on. It is about the caliber and perfect content of your shows and I know how difficult it is to do what you do! Great job once again!

[@CuriosityIncorporated]

She learned it by ear too!

It has always come across as a joke but if most Canadians are half as friendly and polite as all of the characters have been in this series, I am impressed. Kindness is nothing to look down upon.

I was born and raised in Caribou Maine and the book or whatever it was in was from 1918 which was when my mother was born. It just brought back some good old memories for me so thank you! My mother passed away on Mother's Day in 1989 from having a triple bypass and not coming out of it. She was 71 and I sure do miss and think of her often. I do live in NH now and love it here.
