How I’m Renovating my Little Italian House with Flea Market Finds

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

I'm obsessed with finding flea market treasure to furnish my little Italian house and you won't believe some of the amazing spots I've found here in Italy!
Julie in Italy (Finally!) 🇮🇹✨
Authentic Italy, Delivered to Your Doorstep! 🏡🍝
I've put a lot of thought into this new channel, @julieinitaly and decided now is the perfect time to take the plunge. My @AmericanViscountess KZread channel has seen incredible growth since its inception, now boasting over 213k subscribers. Our "Castles, Manors, and Stately Homes" content is also licensed by Little Dot Studios www.littledotstudios.com and is featured on their various KZread and FAST channels, such as @RealRoyalty (with 1.2 million subscribers), @ChronicleMedieval - @AbodeLDS (interior design and renovation), and more. Thank you all for being part of this journey! 🙏🏻
Given the popularity of my Little Italian House renovation vlogs on the @AmericanViscountess channel-some of which have surpassed 1 million views-it made sense to launch a dedicated channel, @julieinitaly Thank you for your continued support! 🎉
At the launch of @julieinitaly I'll be uploading archive vlogs from the past three years to help build the channel. Starting in July 2024, you'll get to enjoy fresh and exciting content. The kitchen renovation videos will continue to be uploaded on @AmericanViscountess and eventually on @julieinitaly It may seem a bit confusing, but rest assured, you'll get a healthy dose of Italy on both channels until the end of 2024 when we fully transition. Phew, and thank you! 🥳
Please subscribe to @julieinitaly - it costs nothing and helps me grow the channel. 🙏🏻❤️📈

    Hi Julie. It is remarkable that you are speaking Italian at a conversational level! 👏 How many hours per day are you investing into that? You are truly an inspiration. I also wanted to say that it is a joy to see how you interact with your husband. You guys are a lovely couple!

I love watching you use every opportunity to speak Italian, even if its just naming something...I've picked up a few words along the way too. I love being busy and have many things going on, but i don't think i could keep up with you. How do you do it?! All the best and I hope you have a great week. ❤Zeljka

WOW just WOW !!! u do it all and there seems to be nothing u cant do that u put ur mind to ...u make this fellow American very proud that u r the one who is out there showing everyone that women really can do it all !!!

    Even though I am watching this in 2024 you mentioned skiing in 2022. So then I'm assuming you bought the house in Italy in 2021. The colours for the bedrooms and the bathroom are light and ideal for an Italian house especially when coming from a rainy and dreary weather days in England. for the sun in Italy is is perfect.
