Watching your channel brings me calm and joy. Thank you both ❤

Every week I look forward to the new episode on your channel I admire the way you treat old things You give them back the life they deserve

Of all of the Italy rehab KZfaq channels your property is the most compelling. It's a dream property. Keep up the good work, we look forward to every new drop.

Velutto was getting so brave, I hope he’s back soon

I love your honesty in following your dream by moving to Italy. The houses are very beautiful and most of all I love the quiet of the surroundings; Hepatica nobilis and fire salamander. I see the eagerness of Isis to do gardening work and recognize myself in this. To add plants to enhance the beauty of your surroundings and wild life. Lovely to see and exciting too ❤ best of luck with your projects and future business. Greetings from an ecological gardener in the Netherlands

Epic filming on this one!!! Spring and the beauty of the Piedmont, then snow The next day. So very peaceful....I look forward to each one...

to the guy with the goofy hat , I appreciate your skills !!

I hope he comes back soon as well… He seem like he was coming around…🙏 The vanity that turned out absolutely splendid… Never did I think such a red bench would look so phenomenal well done….❤

Befriending a wild cat is a most precious life experience.

... the little red table is sweet; it turned out beautifully. You both work so hard but I see it as a labor of love. Continued success; can't wait for the next "episode". God bless.

I love the care and time you take to restore, refurbish old pieces. You and Bertus have accomplished so much...❤

I definitely hope Velluto comes back! I love the way you are repurposing so many things. They have so much more meaning and character than new bought.

Such a beautiful life!

Martin doolard mais en couple bravo un vrai plaisir !!!!!

Hi Issis & Bertus, One week pssed by already so one new Ep arround the Great habbitall Farmhouse and the surrouding areas. I liked the idee to use the little cellar room for a contemporary kitchen,I did like that the old owners liked a good Barola Wine one of Italias best. Further on great progress as usual and yours determination and patience to get things done inn your one way and time. decorating the outside space corner by the stone trap was exclusive with the wine baloons and the table made from the finding in the old barn. the Bathroom table Bertus did remake to fitt beneath he bath roomsink was well executed,Well-done👍🏻🛠 you.see you at the next ep🇮🇹.Greetings.Hubertus 🙏🏻🇳🇱🇳🇴🍀👍🏻☮🇮🇹

Italy has a number of regions full of abandoned homes, villages, towns even, in various regions. A Dutch "homestadter" is rennovating small stone buildings near the Dolimites, I believe and I've seen KZfaq of abandoned areas in the very South, near the boot. An Englishman is restoring another property near the Adriatic coast. I'm following similar efforts in France.

There’s always a sense of calm around your video. A sense of quiet contemplation. The vanity unit looks so good, as you say it works so well! The elder should provide plenty of flowers for the bees, or elder flower champagne! The berries make a great syrup for treating sore throats and a tonic for shortening the length of a cold. Plus a very acceptable elderflower wine. Any left over the birds will relish, though make sure you have no washing on the line as the result is stained washing. If you follow my thoughts! Hopefully the snow doesn’t hang around too long, just when we all thought spring was just around the corner. Have a good week, look forward to next weeks episode.❤

I am enjoying viewing your clever DVDs. I envy you the farm but my time for that type of project is past. The surrounds wildlife and the PC Veluto all add wonderful texture to your life. I plan to retire to Italy in May 2025. I’m looking at Abruzzo where I have the choice of mountains and seaside. Keep up the wonderful DVDs. Greetings from Adelaide South Australia. Yes we do have kangaroos.

A suggestion... Move the compost bins away from buildings...mice and rats will always be in compost....so away from buildings is best :). You're doing good work!!

I'm sure Velluto will be back, he's probably hanging out with a female. 😊. Beautiful craftsmanship in all that you do, including the filmmaking. Thank You for sharing this ❤

Loved the video! Always good to see you two working on your projects together, and the end results are great! We had snow today to, which at my home never lasts very long, want to keep seeing the Daffodils! SW Washington State.

Spring is still fighting winter, but warm days are getting closer. The washbasin cabinet went perfectly, you created a very nice piece of furniture from an unattractive red one. I haven't caught up with all the episodes so I don't know if that's your cat? If not and he comes back a good method for friendship is food (he already has that) and play, just a twig with a string or ribbon tied to it and the cat will start to get interested and slowly play( I have 7 cats, rescued from homelessness and every one of them loves play). I hope that nothing bad will happen to the cat from martens, foxes, birds of prey and stray dogs, because the cat is very cute and you can see that it feels safe with you otherwise it would not roam so freely. See you next week.

I love your Hawthorn shrub. I used to have one of those. It reminds me of my mother.

Hehehe, yes I noticed the peace sign last video, thought some hippies had some history there lol. Very funny, your explanation makes more sense.😂

Beautiful reclaimed vanity. Great find, great redo!

What a wonderful video this week. It’s nice to see thing’s beginning to bloom. Then the blossoms peeking out of the snow. The bathroom vanity is perfect! And the way you set up the big stone container by the steps with the old wine bottles is lovely. I imagine Velvet will return with better weather cat’s know where there is good food. And if he’s a tomcat he will always wander looking for females.

Thank you for this lovely vlog! I am enjoying your journey as you renovate your home. It is beautifully situated. Can’t wait to see all your hard work accomplished and for you to sit back and enjoy

Just a idea 💡. Why don't you mount that circle lid above where you where sitting. Paint it the same colour as the door and plant lavender in the big massive pot. Love the green bottles. I would give my 2 front teeth to have stunning bottles like those. ❤

Ready! 29 entertaining ones videos in 2,5 days! ;-)

I love the bathroom vanity!

Your vanity project turned out quite wonderful. Well done!

On one of another vlog I watch The Newby’s, in Portugal, they turned a couple of those wine flagons into lamps.

I love the pantry and the new seating area, also the bathroom cabinet. You’re doing great work with Velluto, he’s very handsome, I hope he’s back with you now x

Bathroom cupboard looks great, well done.

Love the vanity. Gorgeous photography ( or is it videography?) of the snow ❄️. Thank you 🙏🏽

Beautiful finished result on the undersink table....also beautiful how you seamlessly share the craftswork processes in the restoration of the piece....= Simpatico!❤🙏

31:40 - wow, what a gorgeous scenery! 😍

That table came real nice! Somewhat funny that I'd always choose sure twice or 3 timer wider brush when I paint anything! That heavy peace table, do not think water seeps inside the bowl and starts slowly smell? Your filming comes better all the time.

You are working your way into Velluto's heart. The fact that he washes his face in front of you shows he is fairly relaxed. Great to see. That new sitting corner area, I can just imagine Velluto on your lap, enjoying that break with you. Do you have a plan for so many Elderflower plants? I know cordial and wine can be made from them. You work well as a team, The bathroom vanity is a case in point. Being so high, I am sure winter will drag out for you a bit longer. Mind you Martijn Doolaard lives a bit higher again. Have you seen his vlog? He is renovating two old stone cabins somewhere in the mountains of Italy. Best wishes.

Well done!! We love watching your progress. Can't wait to see a new episode!

Come home, Velluto!

Your lilacs are budding!!! Yay! Back in the way back machine, those green bottles would be hung with bulbs as light fixtures - a thought. I took a big bottle and filled it with little twinkle lights and used it on the floor in the corner of a room. About the bathroom table...yes, when you least expect it!! That's when the Universe provides. 😊

Love your new outside setting area. This house just keeps giving up treasures.

Bertus, nice project reconditioning the old table!....you may want to look into some Japanese hand saws for cutting intricate and delicate joints/corners. I believe you will love them.🤔😃

⭐️👏👍🍀💐

Fabulous !!!!!!

Thank you both for seeing the value in the little red table. You saved it and gave it new life, love that! Also thanks ou for naming the plants and the salamander. Hope the primroses and the blooming liverwort make it through the snow!

Always an absolutely pleasure to spend some time with you in your peaceful home.

I was in the Netherlands last week.. and learnt this phrase "We zullen dat varkentje wel even wassen". Thats you two! Wonderful film as always and a new definition of 'Vanity Project'.

great shot of the salamander in the basement; it's an ecological project as well, isn't it?

Great video love it 👍 ♥️

Era vloggar är rena terapin! // Your vloggs are so terapeutic!🥰 Hi from Sweden🪇

Good luck containing the elderflower, sends runners out everywhere. Great for making champagne from the flower heads and red wine from the berries. 👍

güzel iş , güzel senaryo👍

La primavera sta spuntando! 🌱☀

What a beautiful transformation, you'd never guess it was the same table. Again I love your choices with the colour of paint and varnish, it looks like it's always been there.👍

Hope Veluto comes back. The vanity is perfect. Love hearing from you two and getting updates

The vanity project turned out beautifully, I did not think that red object could be turned into something so pretty and practical. You both did a fantastic job on it. I hope the cat comes back, looks like he was coming round to you. I loved the shots of the fog/mist and the flowers on the bushes and trees showing their beautiful colours against the fog/mist absolutely stunning. Another lovely video. Bedankt.

Liked your videos from the beginning, but they are becoming better and better ... very, very close to Martjin D’s storytelling and filming qualities (and still your very much unique style) 🙏✨🤍

Buongiorno vanuit Nederland. Toevallig jullie kanaal gevonden. Wij herkennen het type huis/boerderij van onze eigen zoektochten in Piemonte. Uiteindelijk hebben we besloten in Nederland te blijven. Maar, bijzonder mensen te zien die doorgezet hebben. Wij komen wel heel regelmatig in piemonte. Omgeving Cortemilia. ( Levice) Vlgs ons moeten jullie daar in de buurt zitten want op een video zien we vlgs ons de stalen brug in Cortemilia. Wij gaan jullie filmpjes is chronologisch bekijken. Hartelijke groet, Hans en Carla

♥️😊🇧🇪

I like the vanity cupboard 😁

Hi guys .. thank you for another super video!! We so love seeing your progress and especially this time how you’ve transformed that table. It’s perfect. Praying for little Velluto to return very soon xx ❤

The bathroom is looking so nice. Love the sink vanity.

Hi Isis and Bertus, I meant to comment on last weeks thumbnail! I loved it! I wondered immediately if you would try to work in “Girl with a Pearl Earring“? That would be funny. Maybe a visit to a mercatina? (Sp?) looking for pearl earrings! Also worth mentioning is the child’s straw/cane chair; it could be restrung to hold cane or straw baskets? Your new outdoor sitting area is very cool. I thought the big tub was for a pot plant at first, but do prefer the table. A beautiful breakfast spot in the summer. Keep cosy in that snow, regards Susan.

Hope the kitty comes back! You guys did a great job with bathroom vanity!

Velvet has probably found a warm dry spot to wait out the cold, you know how much cats hate getting wet.👍

Awesome build, NC USA 🇺🇸

The blossoms are also on our trees but instead of what looks like a crabapple, with those dark pink flowers, we have Red Buds, which produce no fruit but are a fast growing tree for shade. I do envy all your canning and bottling supplies and your cool storage for food. Thank you for sharing your lovely lives with us.

Ciao, siete molto educati, carini e bravi, e questo e molto bello. Vi seguo da poco e mi sono appassionato al progetto che avete intrapreso. Complimenti e Auguri dalle Dolomiti. 👍

It looks like you are going to be rewarded with some beautiful blossoms, and so soon. Love your choice.❤

🥰🥰🥰❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏

fantastisch huis/boerderij maar nog wel veel werk te doen suc6 ermee .

35:54... for now, it is a job well done. Possibilities become beautiful! Be assured, Velluto will return. xo

The stables look amazing!! Love the little sitting area with the wine press table. You guys are so creative and we love watching as you slowly bring life into your cascina. Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦🫶

Those old Barolo bottles would make nice candle holders

Love your stories, but unfortunately it's not usually possible to read your WHITE subtitles. Any chance of using a font with black out lines? 😊😊

Ragazzi, siamo orgogliosi di voi!

Dat tafeltje is hardstikke leuk geworden. En het mooie eraan is dat jullie er echt samen aan gewerkt hebben. Ik denk dat jullie er veel plezier van zullen hebben.

Usually cats don't like to eat from owners' hands...🖤🐱

17:09 I highly recommend making two push sticks, with smaller notches at the ends.

Op de steen heeft dit teken eventueel te maken met Che Guevara Peace sign? En hippies gebruikten dit teken ook voor vrede. Supermooi huis en creatieve mensen zijn jullie, heerlijk. Ik ben al een tijdje jullie filmpjes aan het kijken en ik hou er wel van 👍👍 mooi is het tafeltje geworden en de omgeving prachtig!

19:54 Tool tip: the BAHCO scrapers with carbide blades are worth every penny. Quite affordable, too.

22:20 : that's some creepy snow! 😲

I hate using the over-used term "awesome" but here I go! Awesome. I love the care with which you have created all the bits-and-pieces of your lovely bath. That table is perfect. I am so grateful for the subtle color usage. I am in awe of your care and detail but THIS is what makes a house a home. See you soon. Velluto will one day decide you are "safe" parents.

PODEM FAZER UM PERGOLADO AI ONDE COLOCARAM AS CADEIRAS AO LADO DA ESCADA, FAZ O PERGOLADO EM CIMA DA PIRTA DE FORA A FORA NESTE CONCRETO COBRINDO AS ESCADAS!!

I’ve forgotten their proper name. 🤷‍♀️😉🥰

Vi seguo con piacere. Bravi!! Mettete i sottotitoli in italiano!

Is your little cat sleeping in the little shelter you made?

Estou amando seus vídeos,sou de pouso alegre ,minas gerais ,Brasi,coloquem legenda em português pois infelizmente poucos pessoas no meu pais falam sua lingua.

What is that exquisite purple flower? And the white one looks similar to hepatica, but I don’t think that’s it.

For you a scraper (Ziehklinge in German) would be helpful 😊.

😮😮😮😮TIREM O LIMO DAS PAREDES E PEDRAS, COM BOMBA D' AGUA A JATO( DE PRESSAO) E MAIS RAPIDO E EFICIENTE.ATE OARA TIRAR REBOCO E OUTRAS COISAS DE PEDRAS E PAREDES C REBOCOS!!

Siete bravi ,ridate vita ad un mobile che buttavano via ,ancora bravi

At 6:13, I grew up using those ground cylinder jars for making sauerkraut or brandied fruit...are they intended for the same use in Europe?

There have been reports of a large wolf population, that may have been what happened to Kitty. I sure hope not!

Hola amigos soy Apolonia de Mallorca me gusta lo que hacéis pero cuando se pueda poder restaurar la casa de piedra sin ventanas quedan ya muy bonito para alquilar igual que canciones que teneis en el piso sería un buen recurso sed ganar dinero yo sé que soy capaces de hacerlo poquito a poco bueno hasta el próximo vídeo cuidados cuidados mucho

What is that tree with the dark pink/red blossoms, did I miss you saying?

Please get some basic table saw safety lessons before you get hurt. Specifically, only push on a board between the fence and the blade, that is where binding and violent kickback can occur. I enjoy your videos

Why don’t you tell us how much you paid for the property?
