When we were building our house, people had a lot of opinions on what we should or should not do or add because of “re sale value” but we chose to build our home that was the best fit for our family. When or if you sell it, the new owners will remodel it to their liking anyway! Might as well enjoy your home while it’s yours!
Exactly. And ceiling fans can be pretty cheap if the new owners really want them. They can just install them where the central fixture is in each room. Easy peasy.
Whenever you plan to live in a place for more than about 3 years, it’s definitely best to make it your own. When it comes to easily replaceable items, design for yourself, not for future owners.
Agreed, especially if you intend for it to be your home for a long time, do what you enjoy and want, not what is best for 'resale'.
True. Many people are too focused on money instead of happiness nowadays. All of her choices look wonderful...
They don’t own the home so resale is irrelevant
@@jmonta21 If you’re referring to the new home they are currently fixing up, yes they do own it along with the bank. They bought it, I think from the church Ben works for. The church is right next door to the house. Why would you think they’d be allowed to do so much reconstruction on a home they don’t even own? And why would they bother? Even if a landlord allowed it, who would be willing to spend thousands improving a home they don’t own?
Jessa & Ben's children are the cutest little people ever.
We have lived in our house for three years and we have Ceiling fans in every room except our dining room. We didn’t install them the previous owners did but we love them.
Happy Father’s Day to all the Daddies in your family 🥰☀️♥️
AHHHH Cabinet pulls in the kitchen sticking out like that could be awful with littles if someone falls or catches it on the face playing around. Just thinking of your momma heart, my littles are super clumsy though so it may not be a problem for you. Everything is BEAUTIFUL, love the back splash 😍 you have a great eye for design. Fans not necessary, love the light fixtures 🤗
To see ivy and fern sharing a pop cycle together made me happy to see that ivy will have a playmate
Hi, Jessa! We ran into your kids at Silver Dollar City yesterday and it made our day! I had to do a double take when I saw Spurgeon hop on the swings with us😂. We have followed your family for 20+ years and appreciate you very much. You all are an inspiration. Thanks!
Sweet! How fun! They loved getting to make a trip there with Grandma!
Girl! I had to check my facts. I guess it hasn’t been 20 years 😆. I thought I was in high school when I saw that first tv special but I was wrong! I googled it…Oops 🙊. Anywho, it’s been a long time!
18 years 😅
The entire look with the black hardware, and front door, is sophisticated.
the vanity lights typically get pointed down, easier to change the light bulbs and they won't fill with dust or bugs and ceiling fans are personal preference
How sweet big sis sharing her popsicle with her little sister. Everything is looking so nice. I wish we would have done more drawers when we did our kitchen. Good decision! We live in mid-Michigan and we do not have any ceiling fans. I think it’s a personal choice. Can’t wait to see the next update.
No ceiling fans for me! I have beautiful light fixtures and curtains in every room. It brings such a vibe!
Jessa, it’s so beautiful! You have done a great job renovating and decorating this home. Simply gorgeous!! Black door is definitely the right move!
I like that you really did your own thing incorporating a little of everything, traditional, modern, country etc. shows you have your own thoughts and it really looks wonderful! Many many blessings for you and your family ! 🥰
It's commonplace to have ceiling fans on most rooms especially living rooms, dining rooms and bedrooms. They reduce cooling costs and make your home more comfortable.
They're not for everybody including me, lol...
@@audreybrown1257 I run mine year round and cannot sleep if my fan is not on.
@@runninggreywolf8313same here. Have all mine on 24/7/365.
I do not like fans.
I love my fans. It’s helps circulate the air. Specially night time. Ours is right above the bed.
It looks so good Jessa, your girls in the family are very talented young ladies. I have watched your family from the very beginning and it’s such a joy to see you with your children now.
I think it’s gorgeous because it uses lots of natural lighting, softening hues with many clean lines and classic elements that incorporate natural materials. 😻😻😻😻 congrats it’s beautiful 😍
The black door is absolutely beautiful and just think you have the cedar and the black in the way and then you walk in the house and you have the same thing which I’m sure you’ve already thought of anyway but … the flow is just great!!!! I am so happy for you
I would paint the mailbox and right above it, install your house numbers in black on a cedar board, all trimmed out in a black trim board. Just a thought.
Yes, common for fans in every single darn room! I don't like them but hubby loves them. He walks through a room and turns on fan and walks out and then I walk through the room and turn them off. 🤣 The house is looking good...love the door color!
Definitely paint the mailbox black. So sweet sharing the popsicle.
I am seeing lots of head and eye injuries as a result of those drawer pulls, the corners are extremely sharp. A little one that comes running to mom while she is in the kitchen can smack their head or eye on one of those corners.
As far as ceiling fans go, we have them in our bedrooms and living room to help circulate the air and save on our Air Conditioning/heating bills (electricity is extremely high here). Living in a fixed income and having major health conditions requires me to budget wherever I can to be able to afford meds and pay bills.
I was coming to make the same comment. Even scraped legs. They just don't look safe. But It's not my kitchen.
Everything should be bubble wrapped.
Actually, i've seen these drawer pulls in really life. They are very soft edged and don't really stick out much at all. They look like they would, but it's really something you just pinch with your fingers. It's actually a great selection for young kids.
I was just coming to comment that exact same thing regarding the drawer pulls.
Yessssss , that was my exact thought immediately when I saw those pulls. I would be a paranoid mess with those .
Bottom line, having ceiling fans can help save money.
Ceiling fans actually are great for saving heating and ac costs. In the winter they help circulate the rising heat down instead of wasting it on the ceiling. And in the summer the fan circulates the cool air upward instead of the cool air being wasted on the floor.
Jess that is y’all’s home. No one has to be the same with ceiling fans. If you didn’t use them before then y’all definitely don’t need them. You make your home the way you like it. If y’all ever have to sell the home that won’t be a hard fix. Have a blessed weekend my darlings 🙏🏽💕♥️💕♥️💕♥️💕💕
We have done it twice. It is not a big deal when you have the FINANCES to do it. It’s actually fun when money is not an issue. Most couples older and have to do things gradually as things prudently paid for. You guys are able to get this done quickly and few your age can - Be so grateful and Enjoy!!
I LOVE the open shelving idea for the kitchen!!!! That's going to look awesome.
Looks beautiful Jess. The only thing I thought was on the fixture pulls for the lower cabinet and drawers is that the corner looks like it might be kinda sharp. It might poke the little ones in the eye or head. I hope they aren't sharp on the corners I would hate for someone to get hurt.
My thoughts exactly. Not just the kids…I constantly run into these things!
unfortunately I thought the same thing.
Yes I thought they looked sharp and thought how close they were to small children’s heads. If only the corners were a rounded a bit. Love everything else.
I absolutely love that black door! It is the only color that would have worked but I would never have thought of doing that. Everything pulled together nicely Jessa. Flip bathroom light fixture will make a huge difference.
Living and bedroom ceiling fans are a must. You haven't reached the age yet, but you will get there. It's an easy enough fix, I wouldn't worry about future buyers.
We have ceiling fans (with light kit) in every room. We love having them! ❤️ Your home is gorgeous! U know you, your hubby and kids will really enjoy being in your new home! ❤️
We live in a row home and for some reason the heat stays upstairs so we really needed them cause it can feel hot hot hot! But if i didn’t i would totally get regular light fixtures too! Your house looks amazing Jessa!
Your kids are just so stinking cute and Fern looks just like Ivy. The house is looking great too!
Ceiling fans are dust collectors, constantly having to clean them. The best is what you feel is right for you and your family. The house is looking great! Love everything about it!
The house is looking great. Fern is a mini Henry! Can't believe she'll be walking soon!
I agree, looks Just like him. you and Ben have such a cute family!
Jessa, your home is lovely! Thanks so much for taking us along on your journey. Looking forward to seeing the end result! 🦋
It’s your home, Jessa…finish it the way you want. If you don’t want ceiling fans, that’s your choice. Tailor it to fit your wants and needs. It’s going to be beautiful!
We have never had ceiling fans in our 2 homes. We simply opened windows if the weather was nice or used the AC. I like primitive/country decorating which doesn't really look right with ceiling fans. Your new home looks so nice. The Lord is so good!!
It looks absolutely amazing!!! I can’t wait to see it once you are all moved in and decorated!
Ceiling fans are tremendous at circulating air in the summer and pushing down the heat that rises in the winter. There is nothing aesthetically pleasing about them, to me personally, however, the more modern ones I've seen with 3 blades closer set to the ceiling arent bad. I really feel they work nicely regulating cool and warm air.
Ive got a couple of beautiful ceiling fans-depends on where you purchase them from
Yay! Finger pulls...jewlery on your cabinets!!! Looks great!
I like the idea of the mailbox being painted black and black house numbers, I do think your bathroom light needs to face down , I love the way it is all coming together, I Love those doorknobs and fixtures as well, can’t wait to see the kids bedrooms and the whole house finished can’t wait till the next video.
YES!!!! The black door looks great. The black mail box and house numbers will accent it well. Everything is looking amazing. Soul sister Sarah said thanks for the tip on the hardware/pricing. The bedroom doors look so good with the hardware and everything. We also love the seamless counter/back splash. It’ll make it was easier to clean as well. Which being real, with kiddos we all know simple to clean is a must. 😁😁
i don’t think it’s necessary in every room, however i will say i don’t think i could live without one! i have one in the bedroom and one in the living room, and it’s probably a personal preference but i love having the air flow it brings
I wish I had one.
I like the small, simple black pull handle for the cupboards. We have fan/light combo in EVERY room! hahaha and they are on 24/7. We like the air circulation. Everything looks really beautiful, congrats!
We have a ceiling fan in every room and all four bedrooms. We love it. They all have lights built in.
I'm so excited for you guys to move in and enjoy this beautiful home! I love everything you picked out. Thanks for sharing all the details with us!! ❤️
I love that you chose not to do ceiling fans! When we moved into our house, there was 4 ceiling fans. We now have 3, as we took the kitchen one out when we remolded that room. It looks more modern, I think, without it! I love the drawer pulls, they look really neat! The girls sharing a popsicle at the end was so cute!
Just bought a new construction townhouse with no ceiling fans and I’m having them installed in the living room and bedrooms. Not sure why you wouldn’t want them! Especially living in the south! I’m in New England and want them! Keeps the temperature much cooler in the warm weather and warmer in the cold weather!
Ceiling fans save money on power bills. They help bring warm air down in the winter and create a wind chill to help cool the room in the summer. Most people will put in ceiling fans if they were to buy your house. There are some really nice looking ceiling fans now.
The house looks great Jessa! I never thought about using countertop quartz for the back splash but I really like it!
I think the ceiling fan thing sometimes depends on where you live...very common in very hot climates and not so much where it's cooler. I have lived in 5 different states, some really hot, some more cold. Really whatever ya'll choose is up to you. That's the fun of doing remodels.
The tiny black knobs are too small in the kitchen.
Definitely love having ceiling fans in every room
Looking great. I like the black knob for thr kitchen doors. I have ceiling fans and i have so much dust. Growing up I never had ceiling fans, we had fixtures. This is your home Jessa, do what you and Ben like. Love your choses so far.
You will never go wrong with white, it really never goes out of style.
Everything looks amazing! I love the high baseboards as well. Great choices! As always, the kids are adorable
I like the small pulls those are super cute
I love your sense of clean and cozy design aesthetics. That sounds so high brow, but don't know how else to say it. Congratulations on your lovely new house.
Watching you grow up on television was lots of fun….now continuing to watch you on UA-cam …is wonderful. It’s so nice to now watch you with your own littles. You are a beautiful young lady, and you have a good handle on remodeling and decorating. Your family is sure handy with construction projects. Everything looks great!
For the kitchen cabinets, I think the smaller modern pulls look really nice & are space saving.
We personally have ceiling fans in the living room dining room back rooms but because we keep the AC higher and the fans cool off the area!!
That's the whole reason to have ceiling fans.
And you can swap turn directions in winter to help disburse heating and not have to run so much
yep, us too.
Second that. Really beautiful ones now. I would put one in every room.
Those hardwood floors are stunning! 😍 As far as ceiling fans go, down here in Texas they are common in every room. I grew up in a home where they ran 365 days a year and now I can’t sleep without one! 😂
Your new home is BEAUTIFUL. I'm so proud for you and your family. God Bless you and your family always 🙏❤. 🙏 ❤
Yay, the black door! It all looks absolutely gorgeous Jessa! So happy for you all. ❤️ceiling fans are personal preference, not a must. The light fixtures look really nice, and I especially love Ivys! Absolutely adorably girly! 👍🏻
Your house looks beautiful and I really like some of the choices you've made (i.e. flooring, kitchen cupboards). I especially like how you have extended the countertops as a backsplash. That looks amazing! I am going to suggest, however, that you have your bathroom light changed. We recently had our bathroom renovated and I specifically told the contractor that I wanted the light globes down. He ignored my request and installed them globes up like yours. They did a great job of lighting up the ceiling but provided no light for the mirror or countertop. Besides, the bulbs are much easier to change when the globes are facing down. I had the contractor correct the mistake. BTW-I truly enjoy watching your kids. They are adorable and have so much character! :)
I’m using reclaimed items reintroduced and I am loving every small step to make someone’s old my uniquely reinvented beautiful chic new. It’s amazing what a joyful feeling this gives. Me knowing every minute touch is my dream bringing treasure from someone’s dis guarded jink
We love our fans and use them constantly. If you don’t use it there’s no reason to spend the money! Ivy and fern are so sweet together. You’re right, cuteness overload” They are so very sweet together!
It looks beautiful Jessa, you have a good eye for styling. The girls sharing an lollipop are so cute 🥰
It all looks so so good Jessa, I know y’all are so excited! I love ceiling fans in every room & we run them all day everyday but if y’all don’t use them then I wouldn’t worry one bit about them. Your house, your rules chic 😉
Love the black front door and the black hardware and accents throughout. Also love all the ceiling lights as well. I really like the granite and solid granite backsplash in the kitchen, easy to clean and not detracting and busy like some backsplashes can be. You have really nice taste Jessa! I already have a black front door and garage door. Think I am gonna steal your idea on the black doorknobs through the inside, lol. Regarding the ceiling fans, we only have them in the bedroom, but rarely use it. Design for your preference, you are the ones living in the house. Even if you had fans up and resell, the new owner might have a different style and replace them anyway. Go with your style and taste, you are doing a great job!
The house looks nice but all of those children are GORGEOUS!💋❤
What a gorgeous home for you all!!! I love, love, love all of the natural light flowing in from all over!
Beautiful Jessa! Can't wait to see it when you all move in!!!
Beautiful home, ending the video with pure sweetness!!! Thank you
Yes to ceiling fans !! Living room and all bedrooms a must.
Jessa, you have done a spectacular job. I'm so happy for you guys.
Absolutely love what you have done. Front door looks beautiful in black and yes to the post box in black. The kitchen is just Turing out fantastic I love that you have kept most of the cabinets a natural wood vs painting them all. You must be so excited to get to the finished touches . ❤❤❤❤
I won't lie... you showed the light and I went, "Wow! No fan?" But I also notice you have an attic fan, and that's how I grew up, with that and sometimes window fans until it was warm enough for AC. I don't think it would even register if I were buying a house. I'm learning that it's best to just do what you want with your own home, and stop worrying about resale value. What you've done looks amazing! As long as you love it and it suits your needs... that's all that matters!
We have lived in our home for 15 years. We have 3 fans that have literally never been turned off...only to change direction in the spring and fall. They are the Hunter brand. Love your new home.
I love the small pulls on the cabinets
love the front door ,love cabinets, love counters and back splash you must be so pleased everything is really coming together so nicely
Ceiling fans are a great idea... moves the air around but its all about personal choice...The house is looking great!
Ceiling fans circulate air, and I like them in bedrooms for immediate freshness. Otherwise, they're not necessary in each room of the house. The house looks great, can't wait for it to be completed!
I love a ceiling fan in the main bedroom, living room and guest room. I would love one in my office now too where I ride my peloton bike. I just think you can turn the AC a little more up when you have a ceiling fan on. I think your living room light is to small for your big room, but that’s my taste. Love the black door and great idea of the mailbox in black and house numbers above. You need to put some big green plants on your front door and both sides.
Ceiling fans are a must. Helps keep house cool and helps spread cool air once the air conditioner comes on.
Everything looks great Jess! I wouldn't worry about the ceiling fans! Especially if you had them at the other house and didn't use them. If you change your minds, seems like they'd be easy to install! And yay! You went with the black door! Good choice!
And I can't wait to see what else you have in mind for the different rooms! Love the light fixture in Ivy's room! Already waiting for the next update! Love to you Ben and the kiddos ❤️ 💙 💕
Just make sure you take the instruction papers out of the oven before you use it this time 😉!
I know you all will make wonderful memories in your new home. Your children are adorable.
Haha! My thoughts exactly! 🤣
Jessa!! Your Home Looks Amazing 🤩 Excellent choices on cabinets, floors, hardware and fixtures!! Well Done, Jessa... Can't wait to see the final reveal🤩🤩🤩
ceiling fans are essentials!! even if you dont use them. the house looks good!! keep up the good work.
Yes, well for us fans are a absolutely must. But we run hot so we enjoy the breeze. Your home looks beautiful and congratulations
Yes, to the ceiling fans! For the cubbboards....how about the small round knobs for the vertical cabinets and the longer ones for the pullout drawers?? Congrats!!
I also took down all of my ceiling fans when I bought my house! I love not having ceiling fans, but they are super simple to install/remove if a future homeowner wants them (or even just put them in before you list the house?) Gorgeous home!
I’m a firm believer in your house, your preference. If you don’t want fans, don’t get fans. Personally I have fans in every room. But that’s what we like. Your home looks great. Congratulations!
Ceiling fans are out dated! Glass fixtures are in. Smoky clear fixtures are in. Quartz. Back splash is beautiful. Congratulations…you guys deserve it. You have great taste.
(Lady Rusted) Jessa you have made wonderful choices! I am changing from stainless steel appliances to white in my large custom kitchen. They are built in and I am tired of metal. Our kitchens are the heart ❤️ of our homes, metal is like being in a restaurant kitchen. Cold, impersonal, lifeless and always needs wiping down constantly. Your little family is so full of life and joy, white suits you. Trends come and go…white is classic, it looks clean (Where food is prepared this is important) and along with baked smells…it is HOME! Ceiling fans are fancy dust catchers, more work. If you don’t use them, don’t install them. Beautiful home. 🕊✌️🌐🙏
Idk if it's a expectation to have a ceiling fan, but it's nice to have the option to just turn a fan on?
House is really coming together, really beautiful!
Fans are an inexpensive change out for a new home owner - not having them won't change your value 😉 love your choices!
We have a ceiling fan in our master bedroom that I couldn’t live without but that’s just me. You do you and then you can’t go wrong
I would love to see more videos of fern! Is she a talker like how Ivy was when she was just 6 months old?! She is too cute!
Ceiling Fan Lesson 101: during the the 1970’s energy crisis, fans gained popularity because they were less expensive than running home air conditioning units. A ceiling fans primary purpose is to circulate air in a room. AC’s chill air, but fans move the air around, so they are good for cooling & heating.
I also think the ceiling fans were used for temperature preferences in each room. Like when I visit my brother I’m still able to turn on a ceiling fan in the room I’m in and then turn it off when I walk into another one and not bother anyone else in the house.
The great thing about it is they are an easy switch out if you decide later to add any to the home.
I unfortunately didn't grow up with air conditioning. We sweat it out on the 2nd floor. U can bet that I have AC now! 😬
Ceiling fans are old school. I love your lighting fixture choices. Your new home looks so good!
I have ZERO ceiling fans in my home... I just like regular fans... And I love your lights on your ceiling- beautiful
Ceiling fan(s) are good for air circulation. Especially in the summer. Or when your kitchen gets too hot or to air out odors/cleaning/mopping etc. At least in the living room since your house is an open space.
