Yes to seeing what Guido and you eat to stay healthy ☺️ I love learning new healthy and sustainable recipes. As for the pool lining, I’d go for the grey. There’s nothing more beautiful than a dark teal pool.
Your Dr is so right. I have 6 children and I continued life as normal, doing the things I always did and everything was absolutely perfect. Pregnancy is a normal part of a woman’s life, and yes, eat healthy but don’t overthink everything. Looks like hubs has lost some weight too. ❤️considering you will have children in the pool,I’d vote for a light color so the swimmers can be easily seen
I second this excellent advice. I had 3 healthy babies over 30 years ago and the exercise portion is very important. Do what makes you feel healthy and good xox
The larger, wide gradual steps into the pool create a safe zone for toddlers/young children to sit and play without worry of toppling over or falling into deep water. Cant wait to see your completed project!
From Palm Springs, CA… pool capitol of the world: build a large tanning shelf in your pool; GREAT for babies, little kids, grown ups. Also, holes for umbrellas in the tanning shelf; essential! You’ll be spending many happy moments in the lounge chairs under the umbrellas watching your kids while they are pretending to be fish 😍 🏊♀️🏊♂️
Diving into deep blue water is always refreshing- go with the grey liner for a cool turquoise blue pool! Your‘Stealing Beauty’ clip has always been my favorite natural / organic swimming scene- it’s memorable! Love the stone and the natural setting for your location- beautiful!!! You will create something wonderful, as you always do- Thank you for the inspiration!
I’d go for the gray lining too, will be lovely in the long run. And for your allergies, start using a netipot Kylie, with himalayan salts. My highly allergic husband finds great relief from it! You can use it daily even twice if the season is high, eat local honey to counter your allergies. Good luck in the second half of your pregnancy!
Watching y’all talk about your pool project I was struck by the beautiful friendship that continues to grow between you both. My wife and I have been married for 32 years and I still can’t wait to share everything I learn with her. The two of you are such wonderful people and you make me very happy seeing that there are others around the world who get to share in the magical union of lovers and friends. Congratulations to you both in your great fortune and best wishes for a safe pregnancy. I look forward to seeing Guidos face when his first born son arrives. The birth of your first being a son is an incredibly emotional experience for a man and your husband is such a thoughtful and caring man that he will feel the enormity of the gift you’ve presented him with. By the way I’m no chauvinist. I am the happy servant of two beautiful, incredible daughters..
Yes to the platform, we had that when our daughter was a baby and it was so perfect, especially in teaching her to swim! You will love it. Ours was about 30cm deep which was ideal. It was also a great platform for her to jump off to us from into the deeper part with the stairs being to the side. We also instead of straight stairs had a deeper platform of about 50cm in depth on the stairs side, and then the stairs started from that depth. It was useful to get her used to deeper water where she could still touch. As for the lining I think keeping it the sandy colour in line with the stone riming the pool makes if feel the most authentic. Although darker pools have warmer water so could offer you a longer swimming season, although in Tuscany I am sure that is already pretty long.
I can see your little one toddling behind papa and you in the garden as you harvest the little veggies. What a blessed environment to raise a child. Xx
Would love to see and hear how you two have been eating...feeling clean after a healthy meal is wonderful. You've also asked us to weigh in via the color of the pool interior...just my opinion but I think the pale grey would be so romantic as you stated that the water shade would be a greeny turquoise which are brilliant natural shades found in nature.
Cara Kylie, it was opportune that we have just found your video, full of love, family, passion, culture, language , food and music which we adore. You have made your story come out of the page, vivid and colourful, real and true. Our love of Italy is inherent in our genes. Our Italian mamma gave us the greatest gift in life, which is a joy, but our hearts were broken when she passed away three years ago. Thank you for telling us your story with Guido and your genuine love with all that you do. God bless you both and the joy for the future. ❤
Dear KylIE, MAY I tell you that your videos are wonderful. I see the work you put in to them. Very professional and delightful. I love the cooking, gardening, painting, etc. just about everything. Thank you.
So glad to hear you're feeling well. With regard to the pool, I built a new pool a few years back with the "beach" style stair area. I also had them put an umbrella post hole in the center so we could sit with young children in the water with an umbrella if we wanted. We used the beach area quite a bit when they were all small. But not so much as they got older. When it's hot we would float around more than sit by the beach area. The umbrella option really helped keep the young ones from sun burn. Oh yes, I had a darker blue grey color in my pool. When filled it was beautiful very much like looking at deep ocean water. There's something about looking at the water with the grey blue that compliments the stonework very nicely.
A pool is a fantastic idea! My "two cents" is a grey liner to make the water look blue... platform and stairs is a good idea too. You look healthy and lovely! So excited for you and Guido with the upcoming arrival of your baby boy!!
In today's day and age, to see a woman so happy and so in tune with Mother Earth is a wonderful sight to see for many of us. I wish you much love and peace and pray you enjoy this most wonderful time. Blessed be.
Simply beautiful!! Every part of it; your filming, your honesty, your ability to communicate switching between Italian and English and your positive attitude toward life! It's no wonder you have all these subscribers! We love you!!
Wow so long and crazy!! I grew up with a pool in our backyard it was such a highlight of my growing up years. Good on you folks!! It's going to be amazing by what you have said. I love the sand colour and and the wide step in thought of children. I think you were born just for Guido you have so much in common!! Your wedding was so beautiful and as long as you have the people you love there it doesn't matter if it's small. Apparently we had relatives from Florence and a great great grandfather Francisco moved to New Zealand where I come from but now I married a Canadian living in Canada. I just love all the scenes from Italy, the countryside and all the stone work, etc.. My sister and I would love to come to visit Italy one day, also I love the history of France too it would be a dream trip. Thanks for sharing your busy life with us.. I don't know how you will do it with a baby, but so thankful your parents will be there to help you. Would love to see Guido parents in one of your video's? Maybe over a meal together?
Definitely go with a full platform followed by the steps. Children love water play, filling and pouring water from a variety of containers. As for the pool lining whichever colour is a most natural blend with the environment. Light blue would blend well with the sky easily seen from the hillside and it is a cooling colour for those hot summer days. So happy for you both.
The first child is always different because your life changes. You don’t know what to expect and it’s all new but it’s an adventure and exciting and all wonderful. This new life life and the baby will have two loving attentive parents!! So excited for you both
I was just listening to you talk about your pregnancy and I can tell you from first hand experience, keep doing what you are doing. I, like you, had nausea during my first trimester, but felt so energetic after that passed. I was super active, was very careful about my diet and exercised, jogged and even rode horseback up until the start of my seventh month. I only put on 24 pounds and was back in my regular clothes a week after delivering my beautiful, healthy baby girl. Less than 24 hours after giving birth I was at a birthday party.
I think having a platform before the steps, going into the pool would be really helpful, and enjoyable for children. I think I like the beige color for the lining. How exciting for you!
Hello, Kylie, we just returned from a wonderful trip to Italy which included a week’s stay in a villa in San Casciano at a small wine-making estate. It was so hot! The estate was so beautiful I began to weep when we met our hosts. They have a pool and it was so wonderful! I recommend gray or pale blue color, not beige, or the water will look green, not what you want. We have an earth-tone pebble finish pool in Arizona and the water is not blue. I am glad your second trimester of pregnancy is going well. Blessings to you and Guido!
I told my sister and her daughter about your beautiful and informational videos🤗, and to subscribe💖. We all love love Italy, especially Tuscany ❤️❤️❤️ Tuscany warms our Hearts! 💋
We’re on the 42nd parallel in Southern Oregon and typically we’re in the 80’s-90’s but not this year, getting some very precious rainfall and cooler temperatures. 🙏🏼 Our local farmers are thrilled! We love hearing about your progress in your pregnancy. My ex-wife, while pregnant with my son, ate a ton of raw broccoli he’s 31 now, very healthy and earned a PHD in organic chemistry- must be something good in raw broccoli. ☺️ We’d love to hear about your dietary regimen.
You are doing a beautiful job of balancing personal privacy and allowing your viewers to still be a part of your journey! A pool sounds divine! We spent a wonderful week in Tuscany with family years ago, and the pool at the villa was a special part of the experience. I think the color you use on the bottom can affect the temperature of the water, (ie darker colors can make the water warmer, lighter colors cooler etc) so choose carefully. The shape, I always think a long rectangular pool is classic and visually simple. It allows the nature around to be the focus, rather than the pool. Just some thoughts! I wish I could transport with my violin over to Italy this year! What a beautiful place. I spent my 6th birthday there (39 years ago!) with dear friends and musicians. We were in L'aquila. I still remember getting an Italian ice with my little friend in the hot July air. I got a beautiful little jewelry box, and a little yellow dress with pink ribbons that I still have somewhere stored away. Beautiful memories! Best of luck with the pool!
Having raised 4 children pools were very important to us. I loved the pools that had a shallower area for the babies to splash around in, 18 inches deep where they could play and walk around. A dark lining would be beautiful for your location.
Love another project! I agree that a big flat area before stepping down will be so nice! I like the suggestion of adding a hole for an umbrella as well....perfect for safely playing or sitting out of the sun. Listen to your body...it will tell you when to slow down and what not to do! If you're tired, nap; if you're hungry eat healthfully, if you have energy, go for it and by all means...do not stress!
A beautiful fence around the pool, Kylie! We Australians are used to fencing our pools 🙂..... So happy everything is going well with your motherhood xo
Yes to the pool! Here in San Diego County a pool is wonderful. A light grey pool bottom will make a lovely natural look. The fun will be in the tile choices. Your attention to health, Kylie, is inspirational.
We recently did a pool (built it ourselves - it was a true nightmare seeing as it couldn't hold water for the first year or so....) but instead of using chlorine we did a natural cleansing cycle with plants - like a natural pond but built in concrete and it turned out beautiful. So far it is working, and it is so lovely with all the plants surrounding the pool which also makes it feel more in touch with nature and the surroundings in the countryside. Maybe that is something you could also look into as welll. I love a pool that is not azure blue but a little bit more green - and with a fountain too it will look amazing. Can't wait to see the finished pool area as I'm sure you'll make it look amazing. Sending love to both (well, all 3) of you :)
I really appreciate when you both explain what is happening in the garden and how/when to pick - thank you! Yes, please share your food menu videos, I always enjoy seeing what your region has during the seasons. As for the pool liner go with a lighter color (grey) as that helps not absorb quite so much heat - you don't want a sauna, just a slightly warm and refreshing pool. And YES - get the platform, they are wonderful to lounge in even with low pool chair and of course the children can play, its a win-win. You both are doing a great job ❤️🕯️✨
The humour that you both approach every project with is so infectious and utterly adorable! I know it will be worth the wait and all the planning! So pleased that you are now free of the nausea and can really enjoy the pregnancy!
Kylie, you are so adorable, smart and I have no doubt you are taking excellent care of yourself and your pregnancy. Thank you so much for sharing this journey. My son and daughter in law just had their first baby in February and he's a boy as well. Can't wait for your baby boy to arrive. I love that your garden is already producing awesome vegetables. So beautiful. I live in Las Vegas, NV and we were over 100 degree's today. It gets hotter here every year.
Kylie your videos are a true cinema experience, so beautiful and peaceful. Enjoyed the pool conversation and the gardens are lovely to pick your own vegetables. Guido looks happy and you are radiant in your pregnancy. Enjoyed your video! 🌸🌼
The problem with cheap pool liners they always go yellow at the waterline over time, obviously a tiled pool is preferable and lasts much longer but is much more expensive, so if one has to use a liner then definitely use a darker slate colour, and I personally would definitely go for the more expensive Touch Stone product as the yellowing at the water line will be much less apparent and when filled with water it will look much more natural than the less expensive liner, also the slate grey makes the water a wonderful deep blue/turquoise colour… Well that’s my 2 cents 😆
We love the shallow shelf of our pool. It’s great for sitting in a plastic chair and having your feet in the water. It’s also wonderful for small children. I would go with the gray lining.
When choosing the color of your liner consider the ability to keep the pool looking clean and the desired water temperature. A light color will more easily show the dirt. We chose a black liner for our pool when we lived in upstate New York. Pool looked so natural that it attracted blue heron and wild ducks. It had an incredible reflective quality which highlighted the landscaping and extended the season by keeping the water warm.
I had a dark lining in my pool in California. It had a Mediterranean feel! I always felt like I was visiting Tuscany ! Also my favorite film has always been Stealing Beauty! I was Rapt by the beauty and charm of the places and the people! ❤️🇮🇹
Your a Beautiful & a Inspiration to many of us, I only wish I was as Blessed as you, be very proud of yourself and your accomplishments, many of us want make it....Thank you for being you ♥️🌹 from Florida 🌴🍊🐊
Yay do a video on how to be in optimum health and full of energy! We have a newborn and need all the energy we can get. 🥰😄 Do what feels right for you. I found that when I was pregnant I needed nourishing foods as well. Sending all the best wishes as always! 💝 Your videos are always such a gift. Thank you for uploading such healing, beautiful, uplifting content. We need more of that in the world. Thank you! 🙏🏼💕
I just had my pool redone in 2021 and the color is azure. (Looked darker on the sample ) It’s a bit cartoonish. I wouldn’t choose it again. Fortunately it’s fading into nice resort like blue. I was told modern pools are dark. Definitely do a beach shelf entry with the ability to put an umbrella. My grandkids love it. Even the baby 🏖
Ciao! Greetings from Puglia. My daughter lives in Florence. I've come across your channel and I'm enjoying your videos. Beautiful... We live in such a wonderful country! God bless you
I like the lighter sand colored liner and the platform. Our community pool has a platform like that and it’s wonderful for teaching children to swim or playing with a baby while the older one swims.
Wow. So many opinions! Listen to your Doctor and Mother. You know what to do. You both look so happy and healthy! Have fun planning your house, grounds and your life. Only you two know what's best for you and what will make you happy.
I am so glad you are feeling so healthy . Guido looks amazing and looks like he’s trimmed down a bit. Yes to what you both are eating to stay healthy and more energy. I’ve lost a bit but am at a plateau. What you both decide on pool wise will be perfect. Must have fencing around for security especially with young babies or other children. Not having pool I cannot give a good opinion. It will be amazing. Just love you both so much. Pray you get your master bath before the baby arrives.🤗😘🙏🤗😘❤️❤️❤️
Yes-Gray pool for turquoise effect & shallow platform. LOTS of Freeze dried nettle in capsules or powder stirred into AM juice for hayfever. You look both look healthy & fit! Thank you!
If you are under 6 feet you are going to need a lighter pool otherwise the pool will be EXTREMELY HOT in darker shades. The lighter the lining the brighter the water and cooler. The darkest you should go under 6 feet is sand/cream. Signed a pool owner in California 😉
Exactly! I live in Miami were the temperature is all ready in the 90''s in June. I've got a salt water system pool that's gray, with platform steps. Looks like a natural pond. The water never gets hot. In fact, I turn on the heater when guests come over. I'm sure their pool will be beautiful 😊
My favorite pool ever had small tiny little tiles that had various shades of dark blue and turquoise and it was gorgeous. I don't know if you want something like that but I'm just sharing what was my favorite.
When you mentioned that you're adding a pool, my first vision was the pool from the movie "A Good Year". The inspiration you shared is so similar and will be beautiful. My favorite lining colors are the slate and beach. Both feel natural yet fresh. :)
I am so excited to watch you two wonderful people become parents! You are going to be awesome at it! I love old stone pools with natural stone/concrete finish. There is a movie with Russell Crowe called, "A Good Day", and it has a lovely pool in it but the one you posted with the flower pots at the corners is gorgeous and perfect! I love your fountain idea at the end! You will love the platform as the first step with having children but you can enjoy that for many other uses without children as well! I would definitely do that!
Guido looks fantastic! Whatever you both are doing is working well. So very excited for you both! I’ve actually started to eat much healthier because of you, so thank you Kylie!
It’s important to make a pool practical for actual use: for feet and kids playing around it. People sometimes make gorgeous natural pools (here in California) that are beautiful and rustic, but are dangerous for actual use. Our pool was white plaster with light blue tile. The water was like a beautiful sparkling aquamarine crystal. Remember that the water will also be affected by and reflect the gorgeous blue sky of Tuscany. Enjoy! Oh, would be very interested in your food prep and preferences. Your child will eventually thank you for your good nutrition!
The steps going across the pool for the lighter liner & for the darker liner the steps going partially across with side steps down. The lighter liner will blend in nicely with the other buildings close to its proximity. Congratulations! Beautiful family and life 💖
I love how you two coordinated your color blue for the video. Love your top, Kylie. You are truly glowing, and Guido can be part of the reason. You both will make marvelous parents.
😂I would have had a hard time being pregnant with my third child if I couldn’t lift anything. I had a 20-25 pound toddler already that I had to lift all the time…into bed, into her car seat, into her high chair. I have had friends that even continue (not start)lifting weights through their pregnancies, although they did reduce their weights by 25-50 %. Light - medium color pools are somewhat safer, easier to see swimmers. Two of my daughters here in Texas have pools and their pools are on the lighter side because it gets blazing hot here. We too had temperatures 95-98 here in May but it’s not all that unusual for us unfortunately. Also, definitely yes to the the platform. So much easier with kids.
Thankyou more than you know for sharing your incredible film design talents, depth of fresh story content, honest thoughts, feelings, aesthetics, beliefs and well cant find even authentic words for .....bareing your life with us.. Love is most evident in your life and your world and your loves....that you have unleashed for me (and the rest) to deeply share your personal "paintings in life" .... roots... richly growing.... thoughts, and life you have created...huggs and strength for all you are and do for us...thanku from Dallas, TX.
I vote for the 3/4 platform and 1/4 steps, room for laps and room for wading or baby play! Love the grey lining, giving a more deep turquoise color or more natural look of a lake or pond. Very exciting! Congrats again on your pregnancy!
lining= gray; deep turquoise/blue would be so soothing and nice to look at. and i love the platform idea! i can’t wait to see how the pool turns out. it looks like it will be in a great spot.
You and Guido are both glowing! And you both look so happy! Looks like you are eating very healthy! I can’t wait to meet your sweet baby. Thank you for taking the time to makes these videos! After the lockdown, I had gained weight and felt so bloated. I try your recipes and I’m eating like you. You are such a good influence on the world. Thank you
You look radiant. Don't listen to anybody's advice but your doctors and your own instincts kylie. You are going to be amazing parents and you both are making a wonderful home for your children.
Kylie, We are building are 3rd pool here in Texas and manage many more. Always go up on more horse power for your filtration system. Light bottoms are better for visibility & safety, we have both. The swim platform is nice for babies and watching kids while staying cool. The color of sand is modern & hip and you have ancient buildings. Your pool style on the video is grass with a stone surround, which is nice. You have a wide open, flat area for your pool with no landscaping so you might want to match the color of the pool to the sky which would be cinematic! Go deep on one end, you'll enjoy diving in on hot days. Tell Guido that he'll love staying in shape swimming to lose weight and tone up wonderfully!
You look fabulous and healthy and happy . You are already a good parent by all your concerns on what will effect this most treasured little person that you are about to bring into this world. What an amazing and loving couple you are ! This child is already feeling that tremendous love you radiate. Love to you and follow what you feel is the best way and take the care of you also as you will need once your creation becomes huggable. Love you guys , stay well and bless you both. T
You both look happy and healthy. I'm sure you will make your pool elegant, natural and safe.. Travertin, beige/grey and wide steps.. Love from the Netherlands, Brigitte 🌷
La meravigliosa Kylie, come sempre una ricetta meravigliosa, per gli scatti di paesaggio sono divini. Godo di ogni tua apparizione, di ogni tua parola detta con modestia e rispetto per le persone e per la vita. Sei fantastico! Tutto il meglio per te!
I vote for the water blue effect pool liner (grey). It feels so refreshing when you dive and swim through a blue/green pool. Guido is looking quite fit today.
I am a grandmother now. But because my mother taught me to eat healthy and always eat fresh foods it was so important to me to eat properly even before I had children. So keep doing what your doing. Like you with my first child I was nauseous for 4 months. I was so grateful when that went away. My doctor told me whatever exercise I did before was fine to do while pregnant. So I rode my bike up to my 7 th month. You will know and feel what’s best as you go along. Yes being out in the garden and nature is so good for you and baby . I love your reference photos of pools that basically honor the countryside. That look like they’ve always been there . The liner that would give it that deep turquoise appearance sounds lovely. The wide long steps should be great with children as you can sit there with them and play. They love to bring in little boats etc and it’s a perfect place to do so. So excited for you. I hope the pool is in soon so you can enjoy it in the last trimester it will be so helpful.
The platform of our pool has been very very useful, both with children and as a sunning ledge. Your design ideas are perfect for the site. The deeper color tones evoke such tranquility.
Oh wow just get so happy when a Kylie video pops up. Why are these so fun, entertaining, relaxing? I think it’s because I dream of a life in Italy regularly! ☀️☀️❤️❤️🇮🇹🇮🇹
Love watching you and your new adventures…Congratulations to you both on your new future arrival…I had our son around the same age…a great age to focus on a child and really enjoy the experience! As for the pool color…here in NC we have small snakes and frogs that love our pool…choose a color in order to SEE what is in your pool before you get in!! Although the dark colors are beautiful…this is the one downside…We also put 1 inch ITALIAN TILES in beautiful blues, greens and gold leaf that sparkle under the water and sunlight…our favorite part of the pool!! We put these on a large tanning bench as well as the steps…it is such a beautiful feature and really makes the pool come alive…an extra expense but worth every penny! Also view other pools with their pool colors helps one to visualize a little better…we have Pebble Tec here and we used a Caribbean Blue color…it’s a light blue/green…Hope this helps and try to enjoy the process…building a pool can be a little stressful but the end result gives years of joy in return. Ciao 🌺
You are GLOWING! So happy for you, Kylie. Yes,PLEASE do a video on recipes/foods for optimum health.For the pool (I have one I inherited from previous house owner) u need to make the investment up front, MUCH more expensive to change anything later.Can you get the pebble Tek surface? The texture and color of surface shld be something that looks like the farm house.The advice from ur contractor about wide, shallow entry steps is right! Great for kids,laying in shallow water, sitting on a chair with overhead umbrella pulled over on hot days. Be careful about traditional,natural tile for around the pool deck.It gets VERY slippery.Not safe for kids or adults.Its been a big problem for my pool.I have traditional Mexican saltillo tile. I am not sure how much traction travertine has. If at all possible,a salt water pool is better than chlorine pool as it is not covering u in toxic chlorine bleach but not sure if available in Italy.The fountain idea is charming and that natural color of fountain with the greenish or dark grey toned deep turquoise water would be ideal.Don't cut corners on pool.It will be there for a LONG time! Make sure you get a super quiet pump.They can be v noisy.I live in Palm Springs, Ca area and never cover my pool.It does get chilly (esp at night) in winter but cover is ugly and I enjoy sitting by it/ dining by it/ with umbrella overhead.If u have that wide swimstep you can sit in that on a chair year-round and cold swimming is v healthy for you.If Guido is to be your "pool man", know that he is taking on a crash course in pool maintenance and will be commiting several mornings a week to cleaning,skimming, measuring and adding chemicals,maintaining pump!It's a commitment.
I LOVE the turquoise water, looks more earthy and natural. And if it fits in the budget, the platform seems to have good multipurpose through its lifetime, otherwise full steps looks very aesthetically appealing. Keep up the amazing work and best wishes for your beautiful family ❤️
Oh my goodness. Every video is a work of art. I could listen to Guido and Kylie update us or read the alphabet. Your voices are soothing, and charming and you’re both so interesting and well versed on what your plans are. The late day sun backdrop was breathtaking. It’s like transporting us to your home every time you post. You look healthy and amazing; so does Guido ! Enjoy each day along your journey.
Such a pleasure hearing and learning from your journey toward motherhood! You’re so particular about all things related to health and watching you over time has been an education on what joyful mothering can and ought to be! Thank you 🙏🏼
Yes to seeing what Guido and you eat to stay healthy ☺️ I love learning new healthy and sustainable recipes. As for the pool lining, I’d go for the grey. There’s nothing more beautiful than a dark teal pool.
I think the grey sounds lovely.
Yes, please share some recipes.
It may look pretty for a fountain, but looks dirty in a pool.
Your Dr is so right. I have 6 children and I continued life as normal, doing the things I always did and everything was absolutely perfect. Pregnancy is a normal part of a woman’s life, and yes, eat healthy but don’t overthink everything. Looks like hubs has lost some weight too. ❤️considering you will have children in the pool,I’d vote for a light color so the swimmers can be easily seen
I thought Guido had lost weight for sure
Indeed. Healthy and happy is key. The way women did it hundreds if years ago was best.
I'll second the suggestion for LIGHT pool color so you can easily SEE SWIMMERS playing around
I second this excellent advice. I had 3 healthy babies over 30 years ago and the exercise portion is very important. Do what makes you feel healthy and good xox
The larger, wide gradual steps into the pool create a safe zone for toddlers/young children to sit and play without worry of toppling over or falling into deep water. Cant wait to see your completed project!
From Palm Springs, CA… pool capitol of the world: build a large tanning shelf in your pool; GREAT for babies, little kids, grown ups. Also, holes for umbrellas in the tanning shelf; essential! You’ll be spending many happy moments in the lounge chairs under the umbrellas watching your kids while they are pretending to be fish 😍 🏊♀️🏊♂️
This is a great idea!
Holes for umbrellas is perfect!
Thank you for this idea!
Diving into deep blue water is always refreshing- go with the grey liner for a cool turquoise blue pool!
Your‘Stealing Beauty’ clip has always been my favorite natural / organic swimming scene- it’s memorable!
Love the stone and the natural setting for your location- beautiful!!!
You will create something wonderful, as you always do-
Thank you for the inspiration!
I’d go for the gray lining too, will be lovely in the long run. And for your allergies, start using a netipot Kylie, with himalayan salts. My highly allergic husband finds great relief from it! You can use it daily even twice if the season is high, eat local honey to counter your allergies. Good luck in the second half of your pregnancy!
Watching y’all talk about your pool project I was struck by the beautiful friendship that continues to grow between you both. My wife and I have been married for 32 years and I still can’t wait to share everything I learn with her. The two of you are such wonderful people and you make me very happy seeing that there are others around the world who get to share in the magical union of lovers and friends. Congratulations to you both in your great fortune and best wishes for a safe pregnancy. I look forward to seeing Guidos face when his first born son arrives. The birth of your first being a son is an incredibly emotional experience for a man and your husband is such a thoughtful and caring man that he will feel the enormity of the gift you’ve presented him with. By the way I’m no chauvinist. I am the happy servant of two beautiful, incredible daughters..
Thank you so much for such a thoughtful comment, Lance. 🙏
Your comment brought tears to my eyes and I am not a crier. It's wonderful to hear a man that is so in love and like with his wife.
It',s true it is beautiful !
Yes to the platform, we had that when our daughter was a baby and it was so perfect, especially in teaching her to swim! You will love it. Ours was about 30cm deep which was ideal. It was also a great platform for her to jump off to us from into the deeper part with the stairs being to the side. We also instead of straight stairs had a deeper platform of about 50cm in depth on the stairs side, and then the stairs started from that depth. It was useful to get her used to deeper water where she could still touch. As for the lining I think keeping it the sandy colour in line with the stone riming the pool makes if feel the most authentic. Although darker pools have warmer water so could offer you a longer swimming season, although in Tuscany I am sure that is already pretty long.
I can see your little one toddling behind papa and you in the garden as you harvest the little veggies. What a blessed environment to raise a child. Xx
Would love to see and hear how you two have been eating...feeling clean after a healthy meal is wonderful. You've also asked us to weigh in via the color of the pool interior...just my opinion but I think the pale grey would be so romantic as you stated that the water shade would be a greeny turquoise which are brilliant natural shades found in nature.
Cara Kylie, it was opportune that we have just found your video, full of love, family, passion, culture, language , food and music which we adore. You have made your story come out of the page, vivid and colourful, real and true. Our love of Italy is inherent in our genes. Our Italian mamma gave us the greatest gift in life, which is a joy, but our hearts were broken when she passed away three years ago.
Thank you for telling us your story with Guido and your genuine love with all that you do. God bless you both and the joy for the future.
❤
I would love it if you created a video on what you’ve been eating for optimal health!
Dear KylIE,
MAY I tell you that your videos are wonderful. I see the work you put in to them. Very professional and delightful. I love the cooking, gardening, painting, etc. just about everything.
Thank you.
Kylie... you look radiant and healthy! Your Mother and Doctor are perfect coaches.... along with your wise intuitions.
You do you, that is my advice and what you and your Doctor discuss. Don’t listen to any outside noise. Keep up the positivity it’s so beautiful
So glad to hear you're feeling well. With regard to the pool, I built a new pool a few years back with the "beach" style stair area. I also had them put an umbrella post hole in the center so we could sit with young children in the water with an umbrella if we wanted. We used the beach area quite a bit when they were all small. But not so much as they got older. When it's hot we would float around more than sit by the beach area. The umbrella option really helped keep the young ones from sun burn.
Oh yes, I had a darker blue grey color in my pool. When filled it was beautiful very much like looking at deep ocean water. There's something about looking at the water with the grey blue that compliments the stonework very nicely.
The gray pool liner producing the beautiful darker blue would be stunning
A pool is a fantastic idea! My "two cents" is a grey liner to make the water look blue... platform and stairs is a good idea too.
You look healthy and lovely! So excited for you and Guido with the upcoming arrival of your baby boy!!
In today's day and age, to see a woman so happy and so in tune with Mother Earth is a wonderful sight to see for many of us. I wish you much love and peace and pray you enjoy this most wonderful time. Blessed be.
Simply beautiful!! Every part of it; your filming, your honesty, your ability to communicate switching between Italian and English and your positive attitude toward life! It's no wonder you have all these subscribers! We love you!!
Wow so long and crazy!! I grew up with a pool in our backyard it was such a highlight of my growing up years. Good on you folks!! It's going to be amazing by what you have said. I love the sand colour and and the wide step in thought of children. I think you were born just for Guido you have so much in common!! Your wedding was so beautiful and as long as you have the people you love there it doesn't matter if it's small. Apparently we had relatives from Florence and a great great grandfather Francisco moved to New Zealand where I come from but now I married a Canadian living in Canada. I just love all the scenes from Italy, the countryside and all the stone work, etc.. My sister and I would love to come to visit Italy one day, also I love the history of France too it would be a dream trip. Thanks for sharing your busy life with us.. I don't know how you will do it with a baby, but so thankful your parents will be there to help you. Would love to see Guido parents in one of your video's? Maybe over a meal together?
Definitely go with a full platform followed by the steps. Children love water play, filling and pouring water from a variety of containers.
As for the pool lining whichever colour is a most natural blend with the environment. Light blue would blend well with the sky easily seen from the hillside and it is a cooling colour for those hot summer days.
So happy for you both.
The first child is always different because your life changes. You don’t know what to expect and it’s all new but it’s an adventure and exciting and all wonderful. This new life life and the baby will have two loving attentive parents!! So excited for you both
I was just listening to you talk about your pregnancy and I can tell you from first hand experience, keep doing what you are doing. I, like you, had nausea during my first trimester, but felt so energetic after that passed. I was super active, was very careful about my diet and exercised, jogged and even rode horseback up until the start of my seventh month. I only put on 24 pounds and was back in my regular clothes a week after delivering my beautiful, healthy baby girl. Less than 24 hours after giving birth I was at a birthday party.
I think having a platform before the steps, going into the pool would be really helpful, and enjoyable for children. I think I like the beige color for the lining. How exciting for you!
Hello, Kylie, we just returned from a wonderful trip to Italy which included a week’s stay in a villa in San Casciano at a small wine-making estate. It was so hot! The estate was so beautiful I began to weep when we met our hosts. They have a pool and it was so wonderful! I recommend gray or pale blue color, not beige, or the water will look green, not what you want. We have an earth-tone pebble finish pool in Arizona and the water is not blue. I am glad your second trimester of pregnancy is going well. Blessings to you and Guido!
I told my sister and her daughter about your beautiful and informational videos🤗, and to subscribe💖. We all love love Italy, especially Tuscany ❤️❤️❤️
Tuscany warms our Hearts! 💋
We’re on the 42nd parallel in Southern Oregon and typically we’re in the 80’s-90’s but not this year, getting some very precious rainfall and cooler temperatures. 🙏🏼 Our local farmers are thrilled! We love hearing about your progress in your pregnancy. My ex-wife, while pregnant with my son, ate a ton of raw broccoli he’s 31 now, very healthy and earned a PHD in organic chemistry- must be something good in raw broccoli. ☺️ We’d love to hear about your dietary regimen.
You are doing a beautiful job of balancing personal privacy and allowing your viewers to still be a part of your journey! A pool sounds divine! We spent a wonderful week in Tuscany with family years ago, and the pool at the villa was a special part of the experience. I think the color you use on the bottom can affect the temperature of the water, (ie darker colors can make the water warmer, lighter colors cooler etc) so choose carefully. The shape, I always think a long rectangular pool is classic and visually simple. It allows the nature around to be the focus, rather than the pool. Just some thoughts! I wish I could transport with my violin over to Italy this year! What a beautiful place. I spent my 6th birthday there (39 years ago!) with dear friends and musicians. We were in L'aquila. I still remember getting an Italian ice with my little friend in the hot July air. I got a beautiful little jewelry box, and a little yellow dress with pink ribbons that I still have somewhere stored away. Beautiful memories! Best of luck with the pool!
Having raised 4 children pools were very important to us. I loved the pools that had a shallower area for the babies to splash around in, 18 inches deep where they could play and walk around. A dark lining would be beautiful for your location.
Love another project! I agree that a big flat area before stepping down will be so nice! I like the suggestion of adding a hole for an umbrella as well....perfect for safely playing or sitting out of the sun. Listen to your body...it will tell you when to slow down and what not to do! If you're tired, nap; if you're hungry eat healthfully, if you have energy, go for it and by all means...do not stress!
A beautiful fence around the pool, Kylie! We Australians are used to fencing our pools 🙂..... So happy everything is going well with your motherhood xo
Yes to the pool! Here in San Diego County a pool is wonderful. A light grey pool bottom will make a lovely natural look. The fun will be in the tile choices. Your attention to health, Kylie, is inspirational.
We recently did a pool (built it ourselves - it was a true nightmare seeing as it couldn't hold water for the first year or so....) but instead of using chlorine we did a natural cleansing cycle with plants - like a natural pond but built in concrete and it turned out beautiful. So far it is working, and it is so lovely with all the plants surrounding the pool which also makes it feel more in touch with nature and the surroundings in the countryside. Maybe that is something you could also look into as welll.
I love a pool that is not azure blue but a little bit more green - and with a fountain too it will look amazing. Can't wait to see the finished pool area as I'm sure you'll make it look amazing. Sending love to both (well, all 3) of you :)
What do your plants eat ? Thanks
Oh Kylie-you look so sweet with your little tummy. Thank you for sharing your life with us. 😍
I really appreciate when you both explain what is happening in the garden and how/when to pick - thank you! Yes, please share your food menu videos, I always enjoy seeing what your region has during the seasons. As for the pool liner go with a lighter color (grey) as that helps not absorb quite so much heat - you don't want a sauna, just a slightly warm and refreshing pool. And YES - get the platform, they are wonderful to lounge in even with low pool chair and of course the children can play, its a win-win. You both are doing a great job ❤️🕯️✨
The humour that you both approach every project with is so infectious and utterly adorable! I know it will be worth the wait and all the planning! So pleased that you are now free of the nausea and can really enjoy the pregnancy!
Kylie, you are so adorable, smart and I have no doubt you are taking excellent care of yourself and your pregnancy. Thank you so much for sharing this journey. My son and daughter in law just had their first baby in February and he's a boy as well. Can't wait for your baby boy to arrive. I love that your garden is already producing awesome vegetables. So beautiful. I live in Las Vegas, NV and we were over 100 degree's today. It gets hotter here every year.
Kylie your videos are a true cinema experience, so beautiful and peaceful. Enjoyed the pool conversation and the gardens are lovely to pick your own vegetables. Guido looks happy and you are radiant in your pregnancy. Enjoyed your video! 🌸🌼
The problem with cheap pool liners they always go yellow at the waterline over time, obviously a tiled pool is preferable and lasts much longer but is much more expensive, so if one has to use a liner then definitely use a darker slate colour, and I personally would definitely go for the more expensive Touch Stone product as the yellowing at the water line will be much less apparent and when filled with water it will look much more natural than the less expensive liner, also the slate grey makes the water a wonderful deep blue/turquoise colour… Well that’s my 2 cents 😆
We love the shallow shelf of our pool. It’s great for sitting in a plastic chair and having your feet in the water. It’s also wonderful for small children. I would go with the gray lining.
When choosing the color of your liner consider the ability to keep the pool looking clean and the desired water temperature. A light color will more easily show the dirt. We chose a black liner for our pool when we lived in upstate New York. Pool looked so natural that it attracted blue heron and wild ducks. It had an incredible reflective quality which highlighted the landscaping and extended the season by keeping the water warm.
I had a dark lining in my pool in California. It had a Mediterranean feel! I always felt like I was visiting Tuscany ! Also my favorite film has always been Stealing Beauty! I was Rapt by the beauty and charm of the places and the people! ❤️🇮🇹
Never clicked so fast!! 💗💗💗 I needed this today! Thank you for uploading Kylie ✨
🌱💕✨️
Like SO fast! Haha
I agree !😊
Ohhhh thank you!! 🙏🙏🙏
Your a Beautiful & a Inspiration to many of us, I only wish I was as Blessed as you, be very proud of yourself and your accomplishments, many of us want make it....Thank you for being you ♥️🌹 from Florida 🌴🍊🐊
The Baja shelf is so wonderful! A couple of chairs and you feel like you are on vacation. The gray is lovely!
It’s always a Joy seeing what you two are up too. Stuff takes time, especially in
Italy !
Yay do a video on how to be in optimum health and full of energy! We have a newborn and need all the energy we can get. 🥰😄
Do what feels right for you. I found that when I was pregnant I needed nourishing foods as well. Sending all the best wishes as always! 💝
Your videos are always such a gift. Thank you for uploading such healing, beautiful, uplifting content. We need more of that in the world. Thank you! 🙏🏼💕
Such a beautiful setting 😍 thanks for sharing Kylie! 💚
Yes, I'd love you sharing your healthy recipes! Motherhood agrees with you, can't wait too meet/see your blessing.
I just had my pool redone in 2021 and the color is azure. (Looked darker on the sample ) It’s a bit cartoonish. I wouldn’t choose it again. Fortunately it’s fading into nice resort like blue. I was told modern pools are dark.
Definitely do a beach shelf entry with the ability to put an umbrella. My grandkids love it. Even the baby 🏖
Ciao! Greetings from Puglia. My daughter lives in Florence. I've come across your channel and I'm enjoying your videos. Beautiful... We live in such a wonderful country! God bless you
I would pick "atlantic." Darker will make the water seem cooler and be cooler! The light ones will be hot!! BTW, you look amazing! Much love!
I like the lighter sand colored liner and the platform. Our community pool has a platform like that and it’s wonderful for teaching children to swim or playing with a baby while the older one swims.
Wow. So many opinions! Listen to your Doctor and Mother. You know what to do. You both look so happy and healthy! Have fun planning your house, grounds and your life. Only you two know what's best for you and what will make you happy.
Yes please do post what your eating for energy! You look amazing! Keep doing what your doing. The baby I’m sure is thriving!
I am so glad you are feeling so healthy . Guido looks amazing and looks like he’s trimmed down a bit.
Yes to what you both are eating to stay healthy and more energy. I’ve lost a bit but am at a plateau.
What you both decide on pool wise will be perfect. Must have fencing around for security especially with young babies or other children. Not having pool I cannot give a good opinion. It will be amazing.
Just love you both so much. Pray you get your master bath before the baby arrives.🤗😘🙏🤗😘❤️❤️❤️
Yes-Gray pool for turquoise effect & shallow platform. LOTS of Freeze dried nettle in capsules or powder stirred into AM juice for hayfever. You look both look healthy & fit! Thank you!
If you are under 6 feet you are going to need a lighter pool otherwise the pool will be EXTREMELY HOT in darker shades. The lighter the lining the brighter the water and cooler. The darkest you should go under 6 feet is sand/cream. Signed a pool owner in California 😉
Exactly! I live in Miami were the temperature is all ready in the 90''s in June. I've got a salt water system pool that's gray, with platform steps. Looks like a natural pond. The water never gets hot. In fact, I turn on the heater when guests come over. I'm sure their pool will be beautiful 😊
Why is it Grey? I'm from Miami too, sunny isles.
My favorite color for the pool lining! Very natural, rustic. The sample on the far left of linings at the 19 minute mark. Love and Blessings! 💞
My favorite pool ever had small tiny little tiles that had various shades of dark blue and turquoise and it was gorgeous. I don't know if you want something like that but I'm just sharing what was my favorite.
Kylie, you are glowing. Pregnancy is agreeing with you. Keep up the good work. God Bless you and Guido and your little miracle growing inside you.🥰
When you mentioned that you're adding a pool, my first vision was the pool from the movie "A Good Year". The inspiration you shared is so similar and will be beautiful. My favorite lining colors are the slate and beach. Both feel natural yet fresh. :)
The star jasmin in your garden looks absolutely amazing. It must be incredibly fragrant!
I am so excited to watch you two wonderful people become parents! You are going to be awesome at it! I love old stone pools with natural stone/concrete finish. There is a movie with Russell Crowe called, "A Good Day", and it has a lovely pool in it but the one you posted with the flower pots at the corners is gorgeous and perfect! I love your fountain idea at the end! You will love the platform as the first step with having children but you can enjoy that for many other uses without children as well! I would definitely do that!
Yes!!! A Good Year! That’s one of my other favourites! 💙
@@KylieFlavell Oh, that's right, "A Good Year!"
Guido looks fantastic! Whatever you both are doing is working well. So very excited for you both! I’ve actually started to eat much healthier because of you, so thank you Kylie!
It’s important to make a pool practical for actual use: for feet and kids playing around it. People sometimes make gorgeous natural pools (here in California) that are beautiful and rustic, but are dangerous for actual use. Our pool was white plaster with light blue tile. The water was like a beautiful sparkling aquamarine crystal. Remember that the water will also be affected by and reflect the gorgeous blue sky of Tuscany. Enjoy! Oh, would be very interested in your food prep and preferences. Your child will eventually thank you for your good nutrition!
The steps going across the pool for the lighter liner & for the darker liner the steps going partially across with side steps down. The lighter liner will blend in nicely with the other buildings close to its proximity. Congratulations! Beautiful family and life 💖
Love the idea of travertine and I vote for whatever color makes the water look the most like the Mediterranean! 🤙 Also, happy half way 💖 🥳🤪!
Like the color of Guido's shirt
I love how you two coordinated your color blue for the video. Love your top, Kylie. You are truly glowing, and Guido can be part of the reason. You both will make marvelous parents.
Definitely go with the option to create a darker turquoise! So beautiful. The idea of creating a shallow area is perfect for babies and toddlers!
😂I would have had a hard time being pregnant with my third child if I couldn’t lift anything. I had a 20-25 pound toddler already that I had to lift all the time…into bed, into her car seat, into her high chair. I have had friends that even continue (not start)lifting weights through their pregnancies, although they did reduce their weights by 25-50 %. Light - medium color pools are somewhat safer, easier to see swimmers. Two of my daughters here in Texas have pools and their pools are on the lighter side because it gets blazing hot here. We too had temperatures 95-98 here in May but it’s not all that unusual for us unfortunately. Also, definitely yes to the the platform. So much easier with kids.
You don’t have to explain You look like a conscientious person. Glad you feel good. So exciting for the sweet love to come 🇨🇦
Put the stone on the other side of the pool, don’t cover that view! The pool will look amazing, I love the turquoise water effect!
Thankyou more than you know for sharing your incredible film design talents, depth of fresh story content, honest thoughts, feelings, aesthetics, beliefs and well cant find even authentic words for .....bareing your life with us..
Love is most evident in your life and your world and your loves....that you have unleashed for me (and the rest) to deeply share your personal "paintings in life" .... roots... richly growing.... thoughts, and life you have created...huggs and strength for all you are and do for us...thanku from Dallas, TX.
I vote for the 3/4 platform and 1/4 steps, room for laps and room for wading or baby play! Love the grey lining, giving a more deep turquoise color or more natural look of a lake or pond. Very exciting! Congrats again on your pregnancy!
Thank-you Kylie and Guido! 🦋
lining= gray; deep turquoise/blue would be so soothing and nice to look at. and i love the platform idea! i can’t wait to see how the pool turns out. it looks like it will be in a great spot.
You and Guido are both glowing! And you both look so happy! Looks like you are eating very healthy! I can’t wait to meet your sweet baby. Thank you for taking the time to makes these videos! After the lockdown, I had gained weight and felt so bloated. I try your recipes and I’m eating like you. You are such a good influence on the world. Thank you
You look radiant. Don't listen to anybody's advice but your doctors and your own instincts kylie. You are going to be amazing parents and you both are making a wonderful home for your children.
Kylie,
We are building are 3rd pool here in Texas and manage many more.
Always go up on more horse power for your filtration system.
Light bottoms are better for visibility & safety, we have both.
The swim platform is nice for babies and watching kids while staying cool.
The color of sand is modern & hip and you have ancient buildings.
Your pool style on the video is grass with a stone surround, which is nice.
You have a wide open, flat area for your pool with no landscaping so you might want to match the color of the pool to the sky which would be cinematic!
Go deep on one end, you'll enjoy diving in on hot days.
Tell Guido that he'll love staying in shape swimming to lose weight and tone up wonderfully!
You look fabulous and healthy and happy . You are already a good parent by all your concerns on what will effect this most treasured little person that you are about to bring into this world. What an amazing and loving couple you are ! This child is already feeling that tremendous love you radiate. Love to you and follow what you feel is the best way and take the care of you also as you will need once your creation becomes huggable. Love you guys , stay well and bless you both. T
Yes to everything on your video. Your diet, your pool, your joy in being pregnant. I love it all!
You both look happy and healthy. I'm sure you will make your pool elegant, natural and safe.. Travertin, beige/grey and wide steps.. Love from the Netherlands, Brigitte 🌷
La meravigliosa Kylie, come sempre una ricetta meravigliosa, per gli scatti di paesaggio sono divini. Godo di ogni tua apparizione, di ogni tua parola detta con modestia e rispetto per le persone e per la vita. Sei fantastico! Tutto il meglio per te!
I really like the turquoise colour of the water that the slate, quartz and jade produce. Another wonderful video Xx
I vote for the water blue effect pool liner (grey). It feels so refreshing when you dive and swim through a blue/green pool. Guido is looking quite fit today.
I am a grandmother now. But because my mother taught me to eat healthy and always eat fresh foods it was so important to me to eat properly even before I had children. So keep doing what your doing. Like you with my first child I was nauseous for 4 months. I was so grateful when that went away. My doctor told me whatever exercise I did before was fine to do while pregnant. So I rode my bike up to my 7 th month. You will know and feel what’s best as you go along. Yes being out in the garden and nature is so good for you and baby . I love your reference photos of pools that basically honor the countryside. That look like they’ve always been there . The liner that would give it that deep turquoise appearance sounds lovely. The wide long steps should be great with children as you can sit there with them and play. They love to bring in little boats etc and it’s a perfect place to do so. So excited for you. I hope the pool is in soon so you can enjoy it in the last trimester it will be so helpful.
Definitely having a accenting shallow end for children is a wonderful idea.
Beautiful, well done. The pool will be amazing, whatever lining you decide on. Grey would be my choice.
A light color turquoise pool is beautiful. And the wide steps are intersting. Hope it all goes well!
The platform of our pool has been very very useful, both with children and as a sunning ledge. Your design ideas are perfect for the site. The deeper color tones evoke such tranquility.
Look at all your beautiful roses!!!
The gray, would be incredible! Deep color water would look beautiful! Thank you for sharing your life with us ❤️
Oh wow just get so happy when a Kylie video pops up. Why are these so fun, entertaining, relaxing? I think it’s because I dream of a life in Italy regularly! ☀️☀️❤️❤️🇮🇹🇮🇹
Why are these so fun, entertaining, relaxing?
May it be the romance, adventure, and beauty all wrapped up in Kylie's beautiful cinematography?
@@siboneypeltier2307 yea that’s about right!!
I think the grey pool liner is the best choice. The contrasting colors of the water with the Travertine stone border would look gorgeous.
Love watching you and your new adventures…Congratulations to you both on your new future arrival…I had our son around the same age…a great age to focus on a child and really enjoy the experience! As for the pool color…here in NC we have small snakes and frogs that love our pool…choose a color in order to SEE what is in your pool before you get in!! Although the dark colors are beautiful…this is the one downside…We also put 1 inch ITALIAN TILES in beautiful blues, greens and gold leaf that sparkle under the water and sunlight…our favorite part of the pool!! We put these on a large tanning bench as well as the steps…it is such a beautiful feature and really makes the pool come alive…an extra expense but worth every penny! Also view other pools with their pool colors helps one to visualize a little better…we have Pebble Tec here and we used a Caribbean Blue color…it’s a light blue/green…Hope this helps and try to enjoy the process…building a pool can be a little stressful but the end result gives years of joy in return. Ciao 🌺
I love your baby bump! Thank you for sharing your beautiful life. ❤️ from Texas, USA
You are GLOWING! So happy for you, Kylie. Yes,PLEASE do a video on recipes/foods for optimum health.For the pool (I have one I inherited from previous house owner) u need to make the investment up front, MUCH more expensive to change anything later.Can you get the pebble Tek surface? The texture and color of surface shld be something that looks like the farm house.The advice from ur contractor about wide, shallow entry steps is right! Great for kids,laying in shallow water, sitting on a chair with overhead umbrella pulled over on hot days. Be careful about traditional,natural tile for around the pool deck.It gets VERY slippery.Not safe for kids or adults.Its been a big problem for my pool.I have traditional Mexican saltillo tile. I am not sure how much traction travertine has. If at all possible,a salt water pool is better than chlorine pool as it is not covering u in toxic chlorine bleach but not sure if available in Italy.The fountain idea is charming and that natural color of fountain with the greenish or dark grey toned deep turquoise water would be ideal.Don't cut corners on pool.It will be there for a LONG time! Make sure you get a super quiet pump.They can be v noisy.I live in Palm Springs, Ca area and never cover my pool.It does get chilly (esp at night) in winter but cover is ugly and I enjoy sitting by it/ dining by it/ with umbrella overhead.If u have that wide swimstep you can sit in that on a chair year-round and cold swimming is v healthy for you.If Guido is to be your "pool man", know that he is taking on a crash course in pool maintenance and will be commiting several mornings a week to cleaning,skimming, measuring and adding chemicals,maintaining pump!It's a commitment.
I LOVE the turquoise water, looks more earthy and natural. And if it fits in the budget, the platform seems to have good multipurpose through its lifetime, otherwise full steps looks very aesthetically appealing. Keep up the amazing work and best wishes for your beautiful family ❤️
The grey liner for a natural feel! I think that suits you best 🥰 Love!
Oh my goodness. Every video is a work of art. I could listen to Guido and Kylie update us or read the alphabet. Your voices are soothing, and charming and you’re both so interesting and well versed on what your plans are. The late day sun backdrop was breathtaking. It’s like transporting us to your home every time you post. You look healthy and amazing; so does Guido ! Enjoy each day along your journey.
Such a pleasure hearing and learning from your journey toward motherhood! You’re so particular about all things related to health and watching you over time has been an education on what joyful mothering can and ought to be! Thank you 🙏🏼
