In season 3 episode 5 of Fixer to Fabulous titled "Holiday Surprise," the dynamic duo of Jenny and Dave Marrs brings their A-game to transform a family's outdated house into a beautiful space, just in time for the holiday season. The couple is tasked with updating the home's living room, in addition to renovating the kitchen.
The family has an affinity for sunflowers, a fact that the Marrs make note of as they start to plan the renovation. Dave is excited about the challenge of updating the living room, and he plans to create a unique fireplace that serves as both a focal point of the room and an ode to the family's love for sunflowers.
Jenny is tasked with bringing the kitchen up to date by adding a modern flair. She plans to do this by expanding the kitchen, creating more counter space, and redesigning the layout to allow for a better flow.
The Marrs begin their work by demolishing the existing living room fireplace and making room for the new one. They then proceed to install a new mantle, baseboards, and speakers that can be hidden within the new brickwork. Dave takes care to add shelves and unique features that will display the family's love for sunflowers.
Jenny, on the other hand, starts the kitchen transformation by knocking down one of the walls to create an open concept design. She continues the design by overlooking everything from the floors to the finishes, even taking the time to add a custom-made island and create enough space for a large dining table.
As the team works on the two rooms, they pay attention to small details that will make a significant difference in the overall appearance of the space. For instance, Dave installed new sconces to light up the living room, while Jenny carefully curated a mix of modern and traditional finishes that would look cohesive and stylish.
To ensure that the family feels included in the renovation, the Marrs bring them in to assist in some of the decorative elements. They assist in adding some finishing touches like arranging pillows and placing ornaments, which added a personal touch to the room that the family would come to love.
As the renovation process enters its final stages, the family arrives to witness their newfound living space for the first time. They are amazed by the transformation and the attention to detail, and it's clear that the Marrs headed in the right direction.
On the reveal day, the family is overjoyed with the final results; The living room features a unique fireplace that ties the room to the family's personality. The custom-made island, new finishes, and added seating also make the kitchen a much-welcomed development. The family is visibly proud of the new space, and the Marrs share in their excitement.
In conclusion, season 3 episode 5 of Fixer to Fabulous titled "Holiday Surprise," is a testament to the unique abilities of the Marrs as they transform an outdated house into a beautiful, modern space just in time for the holidays. The family's love for sunflowers was incorporated into the design in every aspect, resulting in a one-of-a-kind renovation.
