Ep 13. A Home for Him and Her

The episode "A Home for Him and Her" is the thirteenth episode of the third season of the hit show Fixer Upper. In this episode, hosts Chip and Joanna Gaines take on a challenging project - renovating a house that was originally built in the 1940s.

The couple that owns the house, named Wes and Beth, are looking for a home with plenty of space for their family and friends to gather. They also want a space that is both functional and stylish, with a nod to the house's history. Wes is a chef, and he dreams of having a kitchen that can accommodate his culinary creations.

Chip and Joanna start by taking a tour of the house, noting its unique features. Although the house has great bones, it needs a lot of work. The couple decides to focus on the living areas and the kitchen, as these are the spaces that Wes and Beth use the most.

To begin the renovation, the team starts by opening up the living area and creating an open flow for guests to move around. Joanna brings in some statement pieces, including a beautiful rustic wood coffee table, to give the space a welcoming feel. The team also removes a wall to open up the kitchen and dining areas.

Wes is thrilled with the new kitchen, which features a large island, plenty of cabinet space, and stainless steel appliances. Joanna adds in some beautiful lighting fixtures, including a chandelier over the island and pendant lights over the sink. The team also adds an accent wall made of reclaimed wood, giving the space a warm and inviting feel.

In addition to the kitchen and living areas, the team also transforms the master bedroom and bathroom. Joanna gives the space a romantic, vintage feel with a beautiful iron bed frame and vintage-inspired vanity. The bathroom features a large walk-in shower and a standalone tub, perfect for a relaxing soak after a long day.

Throughout the renovation, Chip and Joanna encounter a few unexpected challenges, such as a plumbing issue and a delay in materials. But with their trademark positive attitude and can-do spirit, they power through and complete the renovation on time and within budget.

In the end, Wes and Beth are thrilled with their new home, which combines modern conveniences with timeless charm. The couple has plenty of space to entertain, and Wes has the kitchen of his dreams. As always, Chip and Joanna have created an inviting, beautiful space that truly feels like home.

Overall, "A Home for Him and Her" is a heartwarming episode of Fixer Upper that showcases the Gaineses' talent for creating beautiful, functional spaces. With their eye for design and commitment to excellence, Chip and Joanna prove once again why they're one of the most beloved renovation teams on television.
