You speak about listening to the video tours of Quintessence - and John has Susanna Salk's book, It's the Little Things, on the shelf in his office! In case you didn't think I was pausing every scene and studying it with my magnifying glass. I'm 32 minutes in, have rewound the video 12 times so far, and have already ordered 3 books I observed and Googled 3 different designer/authors. Too bad you guys don't get commission from your "design school..." THANK YOU LINDA AND JOHN (and Stuart!) I feel like I spent the afternoon at a fabulous new friend's home. You are generous and elegant.

What a fabulous house!!!! As a designer, his home really sells his talent as a designer. It’s so wonderful. So nice to see a home that is not minimalistic.

[reneekirby]

OMG this is the most beautiful home I have seen in a long time. I love the blue and white.

[sandidueckman]

Does anyone else hit the like button before the video even starts because you know it's going to be amazing? ❤️🇨🇦🌞🌻 Love your ensemble! You guys dressed to match the house, didn't you? 😄

[sarahsiskin]

I want to move into his house today. Oh As a blue and white girl, this all makes me weak at the knees!
Love love love!!

[sherryhudson]

You can see the Ralph Lauren influence, which I love.

Please thank John, for having us over! I loved his decor and many stories! I’m also fond of blue and white pottery and blue glazed pots in the garden. The house has so much character. 🌱🌱🌱😃

[aprilhumen]

I love eclectic decor. It displays so much personality and interest.

[Cenepk]

John really has a way with bookshelves. Beautiful home !

[Chepe]

Can’t believe it’s almost one hour long! I have enjoyed every minute of this video… the house itself, the conversation between you both, the way it’s been filmed, the furniture and art collection, the family memories, everything together making a wonderful video. Thank you.

My passion in life has always been houses. Therefore I've been in many gorgeous houses and seen the best video on houses. This video is one of the very best. The house is gorgeous, the presenter knows her job and the person filming is brilliant !!! Please don't EVER speed things up !!! Just perfect as it is.

[marybeth]

Such a beautiful and artistic home. John's decorating style is just magnificent - I know it's done with great planning, however, it's so calming and comfortable. My favorite takeaway: the story of how John's grandmother allowed him, a young boy, to 'design' his card table fort with her fine items as long as he put them away when done. Everyone take note as there's so many valuable and loving life lessons in that story. Her heart lives on through John.

[mariemcgrath]

Love the way you both co-ordinate Blue & White with the decor.

[PancitaLlena]

How kind and generous to open your beautiful home to us!!

Warm, beautiful person-warm, beautiful home!

Stewart, you did great filming!

[loricrawford]

This is my type of home. I see so many that are void of things, empty and unfeeling. I love this. My home is also packed and everything has it's place. My only fear is when I'm gone who will have to go through all of this and hopefully love some of it.

[ladyvance]

Linda, I'm really, really enjoying your channel. The home is magnificent!! I don't think of your channel as just a gardening channel anymore!!! It's morphed into a gardening, home and lifestyle channel!! I absolutely enjoy you!!! 👍👍👍

[bjohnson]

This is my style. I love every piece of his blue and white and the way he has mixed it with books and other treasures. I didn't want the video to end. Can't wait for part 2. Thank you, John, for sharing your special home with all of us. I'm a kindred spirit maximalist too.

[robinbunis]

Linda I knew when you took us on the tour of John's gardens that the interior of his house was going to be as amazing on the inside. Can't wait for part 2. How cute that you included John in the fashion epilog .
You're both so stylish!
