Did anybody else get teary-eyed at the end of today's video. This has been a very interesting and long journey and I appreciate Alex and his family inviting us to come along. Love the painting too Josh.
Very...it's like I was saying goodbye to an old friend...but it was a great journey and I look forward to more!
Yes me and hubby lol
I sure did😢miss this series already
The tears were flowing down my cheeks
I did but I wasn't going to say anything lol. Its not everyday you find this quality of entertainment. Glad so many Are enjoying these videos, I even allow the adds to run their course to help support Alex and his work
I LOVE the painting Josh did!! So personal!!!
I can't believe how attached I feel to that house!!
It's emotional. You all did an amazing job on it.
Thank you!
Same
@@WhatSarahLikes1 Me TOO!!!
Same here - like ending a great book - it was great but you hate when it ends
Lori Kendrick, I also feel attached to the house, there’s tears in my eyes. I have an attachment to the house and all those that worked on it. Best of luck to everyone.
I feel the same way Lori.
I have been watching the Potter's House series since day one. Amazing how one click of a mouse can lead down a path where you, as the observer, start to welcome certain individuals into your life that you most likely will never meet face to face. Suddenly then they become part of your circle of acquaintances. The Archbold family, Josh and Jakota, Austin and all of the others who kept making repeat appearances in the series are all a part of my circle now. Thought we may never meet, you all have enriched my life a little bit, each and every one of you. Thank you.
Yeah well-that's the computer age for u-cyber connections. One sided but interesting.
quietone748 Have to agree with you. 1 simple click of a mouse and I was transported into sharing your journey of restoring the Potters House. I am sad it’s over now. But you did a great job and you had so much energy! Would like to know how you squared out after all the accounts are tallied up.
Good luck for your future
Very well said!
I second your words. I have enjoyed these videos and the work done by Josh and Jakota.....They are artists......turn something ugly into those gorgeous pieces.
I agree whole heartedly. never saw this channel before and somehow it showed up in my feed so I clicked it and what a journey I have taken along with everyone else. u are so right how all the ppl in the video became like family even though we had never met. sad it is over but what a fantastic job they all did on restoring this mess to a gorgeous home. wishing them all the best of luck.
It's so appropriate that you took an abandoned house in the dead of winter and turned it into a place for new life in the spring. Keep making things better wherever you go!
Love the painting, Josh! You really captured her essence!
Tears here
That painting of Mary blew me away. Josh is so talented, and that painting is an amazing tribute to an amazing lady!
Josh! dear god, that is awesome.
Good on ya brother!
Josh, your painting of Mary made me cry!
Josh, your painting of Mary is STUNNING. Just perfect. You are so talented. Mary will now live forever not just though her own art, but yours as well.
Beautifully stated!
The artwork is epic
I agree
What a beautiful tribute.
I think I'm more invested in this house than it's new owner will be!
Not only do good fences make good neighbours, but apparently good neighbours make good fences as well.
My thought too. Neighbor did a great job with the fence
Very nice of Heather to make the sign. Josh-love the painting of Mary!
so glad to see Austin came back...with his brother! Of course seeing Josh and Dakota feels like family. That painting is the show stopper though!
Love the Art that Josh did of Mary! Such a tribute is so beautiful.
It's bittersweet, this last visit to Mary's home. Thank you for taking us along for this adventure.
You know, I'm sitting here watching this, and I feel like I'm watching a family reunion. The entire Archbold family, Josh, Jakota, Austin... it's like the family has gotten together again. Seeing this makes me feel really connected to everyone, you know? I didn't realize that I would get as attached as I have.
same for me
Agreed.
Me too, and I REALLY hope you will all continue to work on future projects together, because a team this good can make miracles happen. A beautifully completed project, and I hope both that it sells quickly and that whomever buys it cherishes it.
FireCracker3240 I teally hate to see this end...
The yellow bird house makes the whole thing perfect!
right?! I was so touched by that :) so much love and dedication by so many people
I literally broke out in tears seeing Josh's painting! OMG! He is so good!! All of the details including the smudging in the background simulating her pottery porcess. I have been watching Josh's videos of tiling his bathroom and he said he had a secret project. WOW! Bravo, Josh; it's amazing!!!
what is the name of Josh's channel?
It's been a great show, this Potter's House transformation.
Very nice. Love Josh's painting of Mary. The sign your sis did is cool too. So many talented and hardworking people involved in this. Good job!♡
Josh's painting is awesome. I love the detail in it and the story behind it.
What an amazing adventure and an incredible tribute to Mary! Thank you, Alex and family, for taking us along! Special thank you to Heather for the Potter's House sign and, to Josh, for the amazing painting of Mary, that brought tears to my eyes, what an incredible tribute to the artist, from an artist!
Oh my goodness Josh, the unveiling of your painting actually brought tears to my eyes! Absolutely STUNNING!!!!
Love Josh's painting! All the love and thought that went into making that, using her powder pigments for that mask is so great! Way to go Josh!!! Love it :)
OMG! Josh the painting of Mary is AWESOME!!! Love it!!!
is it normal for art to make me feel things? i had some kind of emotional response to that. wow! it is so good. he captured her so well.
Agreed. Love it.
Josh, your talents are varied & wonderful. Your artwork of Mary reminded me,tho I like yours much better as you see the love in it, of Andy Warhol. Your painting is so warm & vibrant,much like Mary's inspiration in her work. I am so glad it's not being left in the house as I don't believe it would be as loved as it will be with Alex & Melissa. Could you,again,if Alex doesn't mind,give your TH-cam & other web site names. Thanks...a fan from California. Plus a HUGE fan of Curiosity Inc. It's been an enjoyable journey following the Inc's adventures!
Beautiful ! You people are incredibly sweet!
And The Potter's House sign was a lovely addition. Thank you Heather.
Austin is so cute in his behaviors. He's so quiet and barely cracks a smile over anything. So literal. He and Caldwell are very opposite, like my two boys. A pleasure to see them both.
A bittersweet farewell. Josh's painting is quite remarkable. Thank you all for sharing this journey with us all.
Wow a million times. Josh did a fantasy job on the painting. Love Heather's sign. Very loving touch. It is kind of sad to see it end but it was worth every watching hour seeing history being restore. Thank you so much Alex for taking us all on a journey of a bit history.
The painting Josh did is great, like how he used Mary's pigments!
his painting of Mary is soo great!
You all did such a great job. I'm sure Mary is looking down on you smiling. Thanks for letting us be a part of the journey.
This series touched many hearts and we were all inspired in various ways, from Mary herself and how she was revealed by you in this series, to DIY tips and the people who joined you in that journey. It is an ugly duckling to swan story of a different kind. Who would have thought the "Hoarder's House" would end up the beautiful "Potter's House", with so many hidden gems inside? I am glad I got to purchase just a itsy, bitsy gem from there. And yes, Josh's picture is a wonderful tribute. I am glad you introduced us to his channel. I just bought a partly renovated summer cottage so now it is my turn to start 're-purposing' and learning DIY from scratch. :-) This series has inspired me.
That painting of Mary is just brilliant, Josh is extremely talented.
I'm adding my appreciation for Josh's painting of Mary, what a sweet, beautiful tribute to an amazing woman. Thanks to Alex and the whole team for giving Mary to the world!
Sean Alan Morris amen
This makes me feel kind of emotional! Wonderful job on the house, and Josh's painting was amazing. I'm so glad I stumbled across this series!
I love how you say "my sister" with so much pride
Heather, you did an AWESOME job on the sign. Love how it LOOKS like it belongs with the house.
Exactly! I LOVE that sign with that house! She did an incredible job!
The picture of Mary does too :) both beautiful
You guys are so adorable. It's great how you've adopted Josh and Jakota. When you said "it's just extended family here now" and then moved to them. =D
Didn't he nicked named them the plaid brothers or was that someone else?
How beautiful to have joy and laughter in Mary's house again. A resounding quiet is no more. Bless you for honoring this special lady in every way possible.
Josh, your painting of Mary is inspired. The house looked so pretty all lit up at night, and looks glorious all ready for a new life and family...☺️🌸☺️
Heather's sign, Josh's painting, Family, Extended family, Workers now friends, Townsfolk, Visitors and Mary's home.
😁
Another touching and emotional video Alex, so well edited.
Tim 57 You seem to get the point across with such few words. I started crying and rambling but I totally agree with you.
@@suzannejensen275
I thank you.
Usually I ramble very much.
🙂
@@Tim-57 , that's OK. Rambler here, come by it honestly, it's a genetic thing, lol. A family of storytellers. I get cussed at a lot on social media and told " you must have no life to take the time to comment so much!". ..these comments always amuse me as I scratch my head and think, gosh, you spent the time reading my "long" comment AND even took the time to reply, seems like maybe they have some time on their hands too , ha ha. In this instance you have summed up very well how many of us I think are feeling. I could write an entire novel on this series...perhaps someone should. It's an amazing story and Alex has told it so well in one medium, through video, I bet it would be beautiful to read it as another medium of telling this incredible story.
@@makeuplover6852
Very kind of you.
It is very tough to comment on utube, if you do not expand enough someone is bound to say; "what do you mean?" or take it out of context.
In my opinion, this story unintentionally turned into a very humanized story. Alex and Crew did it very tastefully and touched a lot of us. 🙂

Tim 57
Rambler here as well!!! Lol!! Makeover, I get the same thing! One guy actually argued with me the other day he wasn't going to respond to my comment why should he since my first three words told him I didn't think...when what I had said was "I don't think they meant it that way"...or something like that! Lol! And even more funny to me was it was only maybe about four lines!! Hahaha!!
I put him in his place for being nasty without being nasty myself then he got even more nasty and called me Pavlov's dog and said not to bark bark again! So I then proceeded to lay it all out for him in his mistakes and assumptions and how much of a man they hadn't made of him and if I were him, but thanksfully I wasn't I would be ashamed of myself for treating another person who had done nothing wrong just made a comment he apparently took offense to. He did not respond again! Thank the LORD!! He was hurtful for no reason oh yeah and he tried to play it off as he was just joking words could be funny that way! Before my last comment. I just don't get why...I guess because I wouldn't do something like he was doing unless deliberately provoked! My original comment wasn't in response to him saying anything or the like...go figure!
Told you I was a rambler...lmbo!!!!!!! 😁
Hands down - best TH-cam series done by a TH-camr that I've ever watched, and I'm honored to have witnessed this. It's been a journey, and thank you Alex taking us along.
Loved the painting Josh. 😊
Alicia Maxwell could not have said it any better myself. Its been brilliant
AGREE!!!
Have hit the thumbs up this time around.
instablaster...
Loved hearing Mary's relatives in the background whilst looking around the cars. Reminded me of the early Potter's house videos.
It has been difficult to to find the words to express how grateful I am for what you have done. I'll be 73 next month, and I'm sometimes quite cynical, especially about the younger generations. But, as I followed you on this house, you have renewed my faith that the world will continue to get better because you showed me young people with special gifts and talents, who are humble and kind, and are driven to be productive. Additionally, you and everyone you worked with, made efforts to reuse, recycle, and prevented tons of items, some extremely valuable, from being treated like garbage. As the music at the end was playing, I felt my soul relax, knowing that this special part of history, which could have been razed, has instead been preserved. Those who make a difference in the world only do so if they, their talents, and hard work, aren't forgotten. Thanks to you, Mary and many others, will be long remembered.
seriously Josh I'm blown away by your painting of Mary. Wow
Indeed! Its spectacular!! Bravo Josh and the technique and colors are phenomenal!!
Wow, Josh that painting is just perfect, how you did it with her pigments and everything about it.
I hope that before you leave for good, you'll have the opportunity to take a photo featuring everyone that worked on the house together and hang it there. It has been an honor and a privlege to have watched this series unfold like it has.
Wow !!!!
That railing on the stairs going upstairs is incredible !!!!
Its a beautiful house now !!!!!
Wow !!!!
Wholesome............This series has helped me through a very difficult time,...a medicine.
Carolyn Marie Agreed, same here.
I would love to see a video when the sign is put up on the house and a final walk through, top to bottom, and with the yard in it’s spring bloom. It would be wonderful and a nice ending to the series. Plus, since you are going to be there anyway...see if the museum has Mary’s corner ready and add that also.
What Josh did with the painting is so moving and thoughtful... and the painting itself is so BEAUTIFUL! 😢
I know this is old now but I felt as if I were there, learning a little about Mary's life and art, and getting to know all of you.
Thank you very much for sharing this.
That painting of Mary is amazing. I love it.
Love the Potter's House sign, and love the painting of Mary both so perfect!
What a bittersweet feeling, who knew so many people could come together over a house that we will never step foot in. Thank you for giving us a little escape and an opportunity to learn about Mary and who she was and what she accomplished. I'm not crying... you're crying!!!!
The house is beautiful. And Josh, that painting is amazing. Great job..
The picture of Mary is AMAZING !! Applause 👏👏👏👏 to all who added their personal touch . Excellent job everyone. 👍👍👍
Great video. Canada should use his painting as a postage stamp, and the sign was wonderful too.
Fantastic idea! Put this message on Josh's channel so he can see the idea. All the best from Cyprus.
I think the additions of The Potter's House sign that Heather made for you and the beautiful painting of Mary that Josh has contributed are absolutely perfect for this home. I was in tears when you panned down and showed the picture that Josh painted. All of you are artists and it is absolutely appropriate that Mary be memorialized in such ways in this home. This has been a beautiful thing to watch, it was like a Phoenix rising from the ashes. I hope you leave Josh's painting with the house. It seems appropriate for her to be there. Josh incorporated not just the pigments... but Mary's image and her signatures that she worked on developing for the pottery for the pieces that she created in the historical kiln and Pottery House out back. This was just beautiful to watch! Thank you for taking us on this journey Alex and Melissa!
The house looks great, and I absolutely love Josh's painting of Mary!
And wow, over 100 people coming through for the open house! That's really saying something in a small town.
Well done, guys!
You must be so tired Alex ,but when you look back in years to come know you did a great job . Something you your family and all the guys who worked so hard can be proud of .
@@swissuz Perfect reply i think you sum it up elegant and thoughtfull x
Really rather sad this journey is over - it’s been amazing! Love Josh’s painting and the lovely sign - you’ve all done an amazing job Alex. Looking forward to your next adventure 😊
I wish I could up root from the UK and buy this house, I’m in love with it now you’ve done such an amazing job 👏🏻👏🏻💙💙
I didn't renew Prime due to the 20% increase. First TH-cam I watched(ever) & subbed was Curiosity Inc. Before the Potters series I got to explore different avenues with Alex. I started telling everyone, this man is charming and so is his family. The respect you showed for the hoarding situation was very professional. Thank you for honoring Mary's last request. A shout out to all the craftsman who helped on this restoration. Am looking forward to the next adventure.
Aww 🥰
Josh your painting literally brought tears to my eyes. Absolutely beautiful! Please reconsider prints. We all want to keep a little piece of the Potter series for years to come, especially those that didn't have a winning bid at the auction.
Alex and family thank you for sharing this journey with us. Can't wait to join you in your next adventure. Wonderful job with the house. I'm sure Mary would have loved it!
Karebear Vlogs There is going to be another auction for other items he has uncovered. Quite a few I think. Perhaps we both could win the bid for something then.😃
BRAVO!!! BRAVISSIMO!!!
This magnificent series is worthy of an "EMMY AWARD", it defines the loving spirit of humanity in many ways. MARY will always be remembered because of YOU Alexander and she's a guardian angel for you.
In addition, because of YOU and the arduous process of renovation, every house in the neighborhood particularly the one right next to the property, has enjoyed free of charge a considerable increase in their property's value. You don't owe 1CENT, to that guy who put up that fence, he should send you a THANK YOU note. Jus sayin...
Josh's painting is "Picasso Approved", BRAVO!!!
I agree. The neighbors have to be elated that this home has been restored...Indeed boosting property values for the neighborhood.
The Potter's House series is the best binge watch I've had in a long time! Love the amazing energy of everyone involved! Well Done!
Seeing everyone sitting at the dinner table makes this house a home.
Hate to see it end. Thank you for sharing. I feel like I know the cast of characters that glorified Mary’s story. Well done all and bless each of you.
Brilliant painting by Josh and I pray you get a buyer for the house you took us on a great journey with Mary's house 👍👍👍
Thanks painting is Fabulous! I believe, Mary would have been ecstatic!!! I have absolutely loved every minute of these videos!!! Thanks million!
Josh’s painting made me tear up. Stunning and so thoughtful. ❤️
I love Josh's painting, it's perfect for the house. I am so sorry to see these episodes end though, how sad. I also can't wait for the next renovations to start on an old general store though, happy travels...
Josh! That portrait and the special features of it are amazing. Thanks to Heather for the Potter's House sign, too. So cool that Austin came and brought his brother. This is a bittersweet episode. I do wish I could buy this property. Now to find a tissue to dry my eyes. Watching this was quite emotional for me.
This was an emotional one for me. Josh's painting hits me straight in the heart. Mary has to be beaming from above with pain free hands enjoying her home becoming a home again.
I love the painting! But sad to see this series end, thanks for the adventure and learning about Mary and her art, everyone did a great job!
Alex, it's beautiful, you did some wonderful work. And Josh, the painting is great you captured Mary's essence in that piece and it looks great on the kitchen wall. All you guys did a great thing with that house and her legacy. Bless your hearts!
What a great painting. Using her powders was such a wonderful way of honoring her.
All around fantastic job!
Blessings ~
Josh is so talented!!! The painting is absolutely gorgeous!!! What a gifted artist!!! Mary would be honored.
The house is now a home. I loved watching this journey. Love the painting Josh did.
Your sister's Potter's House sign looks perfect!
Yay! Josh and Jakota!! You have to include those guys in new shows! They are great guys!! The complement you!!
The painting of Mary made me cry. It's been a long day.
Your not the only one to shed a tear
You are a blessing to many and humble enough not to know how much you impact the lives around you. Thank you for taking us along on your adventure!
It was lovely of Josh to create the wonderful painting if Mary. Simply lovely.
I scanned over the comments, and it seems a bit redundant to say, but Josh’s painting of Mary stopped my heart! ......the picture of a world class artist done by another world class artist.
There's something very powerful about that painting, an artist paying tribute to another artist.....
All you guys did yourselves proud! Love Heather's plaque! Josh's painting of Mary! You can tell it was done with love and respect! Well done all, well done!!!!
That Painting looks beautiful, you should keep the painting and put it on a Frame. And could you do one more view of the house from top to bottom before you leave the house for good. ?????????
That's a wonderful painting of Mary.
*hopefully that isn’t a train full of people to see the house* 😂😂
If we all could be there we would! We all support you and the Potter House!
I thought the same thing. I wish we could all be there.
Amen👍
I think it would take a very large train to bring all of us. LOL
We will never get tired of his jokes.
The whole thing is magnificent ❣❣❣❣The painting made me cry for some reason. Well done.
Also I ... 😢
Thanks for having Josh! Love his interpretation of Miss Mary's signature. I agree this belongs agains the wonderful kitchen wall.
oooiking forward to the general store adventure Alex ..who needs t.v when we have youtube
Thanks for the journey Archbold family. Will miss this lovely house, but can't wait for the next adventure.
Absolutely love the painting! You should all be so proud of not just your hard work, but for honoring Mary’s life and legacy.
It started out as a hoarder situation and you turned it into a respectful and lovely search and rescue operation! Bravo!❤️
Watching from Australia in January 2021 🇦🇺 sending blessings to you all 💕🙏🏼
OMG! I love this guy's art in honor of Mary! Josh is an amazingly deep artist! These brothers are so talented.
JOSH that's the most beautiful painting dude.
you should follow him on insta. he's got some great art. @myhandsgallery and @usihtat
That painting of Mary is incredible! Lots of respect to Josh for deciding not to make prints of it, I'm sure there would be a lot of profit there.
Is there a reason it wouldn't go with the house, assuming the new owners are respectful? I feel like that's where it belongs..
Apathetic Aesthetic he should do a painting directly on a wall so it stays with the house ❤️
Wonderful painting of Mary Josh. Really enjoyed this series. Great job on bringing the house back to life.
You should definitely keep that painting. Not just as a reminder of Mary, but also of Josh. Two brilliant people that it is a privilege to know.
The house looks amazing! This episode was bittersweet. Who's cutting onions?
Heather, I so love the Potters house sign that you made! 💜
Josh, your painting is beautiful! ❤
Who would have thought a request of " would you like to look at some stuff " would lead you on a fantastic journey to discover a Canadian treasure and Artist Mary Borgstrom. Alex / Melissa you and all that have worked on the house, have done yourselfs, the house, Mary`s family and the memory of Mary Borgstrom great credit. All the best from the UK cheers Ken.
This has been such an amazing journey and I’m so thankful I found you! Alex, you should be so proud of what you’ve accomplished. You’ve brought this amazing house back to life and brought attention back to an incredible woman. The characters (workers) along the journey have been so entertaining and all seem to be wonderful people as well. Bless you all! ❤️
Josh's painting is awesome
