Setting Up The Library

[@johnwilliamtuckey2796]

Oh Billy I truly wish you would stop considerate on negative comments; you're a wonderful human being and who really cares about what other people say. I am a 60 year old gay man; I've been watching you for years. One thing that I have learned in my many year's is that if you try to make everyone happy you lose yourself in the process. "To thine own self be true " The testimony to you is the truly wonderful friend's and family that have always been by your side. Please do not question your ability to make the best out of your life. To you and your brother and sister; I appreciate that you all allow me to go on this journey with you all. Love you guy's! ❤

Hey Billy! That was a great shout out to all the arm chair contractors and carpenters out there! It's so easy to judge when you are not involved in a project. Crack on with your plan, it's your time, your money and your future.

[@sunnyndelaware6159]

My thoughts exactly! Everything that Billy has done has been gorgeous and first-rate construction. So just "Crack On," Billy!! ❤

[@heehaw8401]

For sure! Everything Billy has done has been great! I think he knows what he is doing. Michael needs to do an update on the chateau kitchen.

[@Sisteryoda1440]

Must say though, for those of us who are not contractors in any way, our concern about the vapor barrier issue was that we were wondering if the integrity of the indoor side of the stone walls would be compromised by the moisture coming off the barriers with nowhere to go. At least, I was wondering. Thank you Billy for explaining that the moisture will dissipate through the outer wall.

[@cliveklg7739]

You do realize there are some people who are professional, not just armchair contractors, that watch this? Sad so many people are so touchy they can't handle another opinion being posted. It is suggestions most don't care if he takes them or not. The overreaction to this is as ridiculous as the few hate posters.

[@Nonniekarn]

@@cliveklg7739 come on look at what the 4 of them have done so far. Do you seriously think Billy wouldn’t have had every inch of his plan checked…again and again and again.before he even ordered the wood and steel.

Not gonna lie...I really want to see the garden restoration. Behind the scenes planning, full drawn layout, species list. And ecosystem service considerations.

[@ThePethericks]

it’s a fabulous idea and i haven’t given it much thought. priority is to get these 3 rooms finished and then we can make a start outside

I'm looking forward to seeing it finished, but I"m also looking forward to watching the whole process. The kitchen really taught me to trust the process and just enjoy everything.

[@drummerlovesbookworm9738]

I really love that some thought is being given to bringing back the food gardens! The land there can grow practically everything your family would need to eat. That kitchen would be heaven to can, dehydrate, and prep all the fruit and produce. Start small with the gardens and figure out what works. When you have guests down the line, “farm to table” food would be such a selling point! I sure the nuns grew everything!

[@BTRPaganMedium]

I started craving fried potatoes seeing the fingerling ones they unearthed! Farm to Table cooking is fabulous and many people search for it in destinations to visit.

[@heehaw8401]

I live in metro Atlanta. There was a little farm down the road from us that had a farm to table event in a field. It was very fancy. They had a tour bus drive from downtown Atlanta to the farm loaded with people and adult beverages. At $125/person it sold out.

[@blueice011]

Yanis has turned into such a terrific tradesman! He takes his work seriously. He has become such a big part of the team! As I was watching Mick show off his potato crop I had thoughts of what this special old property once was, can & will be, in the future with the dream Billy has. I would think the village folks would be very excited and would help support the transition of the gorgeous old building into something everyone can enjoy. 😊

[@Thadius_Invictus]

Billy, I absolutely LOVE this Library project. I am a huge fan of practical adaptive reuse of historical buildings and the way you conceived and imagined this library is fascinating to me. I sometimes find myself in heated discussions with some people when they say that restoration doesn't include alteration, and building preservationists claiming buildings shouldn't be altered, but in today's society, if we hope to rescue and make these historical buildings suitable for the modern day's reality alteration is a must as so many older buildings had many tiny, tiny spaces and wasted throughways which make them impractical, and thus, without alteration many historical buildings sit empty and are demolished through neglect, even with historical designation. I love that you are reimagining the use of this building and aren't just keeping rows of Nun-cells intact because they have really old doorways, which many people would have considered sacred and that they couldn't be removed. I am really enjoying this content, Thank you.

Just a idea... Save all your old windows and make a greenhouse in the convent gardens. Your dad may like that.

[@cheriehomebody9454]

I've always felt that art should be included in a fine library! this includes paintings, porcelain, sculpture. You will have empty panels for the art and lots of shelf space for the other things. And you need one of those fantastic huge world globes. Very excited to follow your progress on the library!

[@jennifercampbell7698]

Yes I was thinking in the corners Paddy could include a built in stand or corner shelving for artefacts, statues or porcelain vases and even corner wall candelabras. Also the porcelain shelving piece would make a brilliant convent photographic history display with a glass overlay.

[@nicolaablett7790]

[@24NunuGraph]

Spanish sailors brought tomatoes (Colombia, Chile) and potatoes (Peru, Bolivia) from America to Spain in the 16th century. At first, the potato was considered a botanical curiosity and not a food, but its cultivation soon spread to Italian gardens and later to other European countries. It's amazing to see your father on the front line.

[@AliWade1971]

We are blessed to have Billy's vision. I got emotional seeing the library start to take shape. I volunteer at Picton Castle in Wales, and there is a unique circular library there - built in the 1740s. In 240 years visitors to the Convent will admire the library and talk about Billy Petherick. 💜

[@claireburkus8497]

So glad people mentioned window seats!!! My favorite reading and private time spaces!!! Built many over the years with moving from Pennsylvania to Boston and then back again!!! Most beautiful spot to watch the snowstorms roll in or just enjoy the lake views or rolling countryside!!!

[@judithjordan154]

I agree with you leaving the walls to breathe rather than putting up a vapor barrier that would trap moisture in them. Old buildings were meant to breathe, and with you doing a stud wall as well, leaving that little extra space where there are gaps, you won't have to worry about moisture ruining your beautiful library as it will have air to evaporate in behind the wall.

[@martemacdougall1985]

I know very little about construction, so for me, everything you do is bloody marvelous! When you're adding up the costs in your head, don't forget about buying some wonderful books and antique furniture and carpets to make it all cozy in a Manorhouse kind of way. As for lighting, perhaps some VERY DISCREET and well placed directional pot lights for reading in those arm chairs. Everything is coming together as your initial vision directed you! Enjoy the ride!

Billy, my dear friend, when I saw you dad dig up the first hill of potatoes of the year, I nearly burst into tears! My grandpa always did that and then saved the rest of the hills until they were larger. If you need a recipe, boil them until fork tender and then slather in butter. (My grandpa’s personal recipe!)
