I love how small, niche businesses thrive in Italy, and Europe in general. In Canada, all the small independently owned businesses are being pushed out, while big franchises and corporations are taking over. It's really sad. So many of our main streets have empty store fronts and shopping is done through Amazon, or in a one stop shop area with big box stores. I haven't felt joy while shopping for a very long time. And the small businesses that do manage to stay afloat have to charge so much for their goods and services because real estate, rent, taxes, interest rates are all through the roof. You guys are really lucky. And watching you shop brings me joy :)

Same in the states, higher rent, food and almost everything.😢 But, we the people are the guilty ones because we buy everything on line, we don’t want to go outside and look for it, we want the easy way. So, in the end less people buying things in the small stores that some of them have to go out of business.

The 'ugly garden furniture' now looks great! Seriously - it has far more personality than a contemporary garden furniture has. I think the colous of the wood and reupholstered cushions are very classic, cal, welcoming and will feel very cooling in the heat of the summer. The furniture is a delightful mix of your personalities and while it was initially somewhat unattractive, it now a delight. Cheers to the two of you on making your patio so inviting.

My husband and I look forward to Sundays when we watch your latest videos together. He's a Carlo fan and is interested in watching Carlo's projects. My husband also relates to Carlo which is part of his enjoyment watching your videos. Watching this video a bit ago, my husband said "what's wrong with where Carlo hung the fly swatter?" I replied, "I agree with Nicki. Nobody wants to see a fly swatter in plain sight." My husband asks "why?" It's true - men are from Mars, women are from Venus! Thanks for our weekly chuckles!

Hi Nikki and Carlos. 😊 when changing out your cushion covers , take a large black plastic garbage bag ,put the cushion in it , with the opening of the bag going into your cover first ,feed into the cover,once in just pull the bag out. It stops the struggle, as it makes the cushion slippery. 😊

I think the furniture is quaint and very charming, very inviting. I totally see why Carlo got it. It was extremely inexpensive; very comfortable, and had potential. You said the outdoor furniture was very expensive there, so it was very practical to get a temporary, inexpensive set until you were ready to invest in your ideal, permanent set. Being flexible can open our eyes to possibilities that we would never have considered, but end up wonderful opportunities! I will bet you that while you are gone, those former owners come for some of their things- not because they need them, but to be nosy. I wish you could put some trail cameras out to watch them if they show up. They are like a pimple on your a$$ that never goes away, but you know the possibility of them popping up to get their stuff is always there. Sorry, but I don’t trust them. They are shady and extremely inconsiderate. Have a wonderful time in Positano!❤

The ugly furniture set turned into a beauty! What a difference a little paint & new fabric covers can make. That flower market was pretty incredible. Also, the lamp shades turned out really nice - a great find. Indie made me laugh at the stall with all of the meat 's & cheeses - she wanted something so badly! Hope your Dad is doing OK. Have a good week. Ciao

Good buy Carlos I knew they had great potential, here that set will cost thousands of dollars especially real wood, those seat will last you a lifetime. Love the lamp shade every Sunday we want to move to Italy, love the markets, the tradition of every town. Thank you for a scape of our real world here in America

Carlo always seems to find gems in the rough. He seems very happy with his new toy, too. The lampshades are darling, but the cushion fabric for outdoors is exactly what I would've picked!!

Dear Carlo and Nicki , so lovely to see real craftsmanship still alive in the unique shops ! Like the fabric shop and Wow ! a whole shop making lampshades ! All those kinds of shops don't exist anymore in the UK ! Ofcourse the outdoor furniture turned out great , looks really lovely and would have been crazy to burn it ! Good solid , comfy furniture, now with a new life xx Janette (UK)

I like how the chalk paint soften some of the dark and heavy carving and yet the wood frames still give the impression of loving room rather than garden furniture. The woven reed rug still gives the rattan suite look that Nicki was originally hoping for. So an effective melding of your choices that don't come across as a compromise. Your lampshade choices will really dress up your bedrooms and kitche. Well done!

That rug made all the difference. Maybe a low table lamp too in the corner.

For those persons who said you should have burnt that furniture set, they obviously have no imagination for you have transformed it into something really beautiful. I wonder what the bagpipe players were doing in your neck of the woods. Whatever, it was sweet music to my ears perhaps because I'm Scottish!. As more proof, I've just baked a batch of shortbread well you're going to have to take my word for it. It's amazing what you've done to your house in so little time, it's starting to look absolutely gorgeous, just goes to show that with great taste and hard work what's possible.. It's wonderful seeing the dogs out and about enjoying so much space to run about in. You made, in my opinion, a great choice. Have a great time in Positano.

I'm a tool nut too Carlo ! This year I bought a weed eater and chain saw to cut up all the limbs in my 2 acre yard. Love the battery operated tools! So nice to see how pretty the porch furniture turned out. It's lovely.

That lampshade shop is extraordinary. Nothing like that here in the US. the seating Carlo bought looks lovely. I’m sure it’s sturdy and much more comfortable than newer sets. Older things are just made better. Thank you as always for sharing. The flower market was glorious.
