Episode update + Tea Time Livestream this Sunday at 5:00PM! EST 3/26/23

Hello!!

I hope you are doing well! I have tackled some big projects before and I think this latest one is going to be my Mt Everest! I've been working on the finishings and now the furniture for the guest room, which has evolved into its own thing!

So this month's episode will feature how I've constructed a grand Victorian canopy bed frame by Frankensteining two facebook marketplace beds into one and will finish with my FIRST trip to the NYC garment district! There I found all of the velvet, lace and trim that this opulent room will require!

I'm Holding off on the room reveal episode until everything is finished, because of anything I've ever done before, this is honestly probably my very favorite!!

This Sunday we can catch up over tea and I'll be talking about the room and giving an exciting update on the printing of both my wallpaper patterns!

Can't wait to see you!

-Christine

Just got my autograph pictures and they are so beautiful. Can’t wait to frame them and hang them in the library!!! Thank you so much!

I was wondering when you'd finally make your way here to NYC! So glad you had a lovely time fabric hunting! :)

Christina Rodriguez

Hello, Christine! I hope you are doing well & everything has been going well. I’m looking forward to this Sundays episode. It’s exciting to see what you have coming up. I hope you have an amazing week ❤️

Truly cannot wait! I'm re-watching old episodes and dreaming of the day I get my own Victorian house to "Christine McConnell" style it up 🥰

Rachael Cowden

I do costuming!

Jordan Nuckels

Are we not going to talk about the man creeping in the background?

Maria Gress

For you to say this is the biggest thing you have ever tackled has me giddy with anticipation! I'm remembering some of your past projects (changing the facade of your parents house for Halloween, the Winchester Gingerbread House, transforming the couch, the owl cabinet, ect...) and with those in mind, I can't even imagine what you would consider a "Mount Everest " project. I can't wait for this! 😃

Deb McGrath

I'm home sick, so this is something to look forward to!!!

Killian Kincaide

This is such a great idea. I’ve been refinishing so much furniture lately and what better detail to add than some Christine creations?

Desiree Celeste

So glad you got to experience NYC's garment district. You must have felt like a kid in a candy store. Anxious to see how the canopy bed turned out. See you tomorrow!

Disclaimer: this message is from my 5 yr. old who loves Christine. I just want to preface with that because some of this might be weird for an adult to say, but cute when a small child says it.....anyhoo, here's Rowen: i like all the spooky things around your house it's soooooo pretty and spooky anyway i love you by

Sara Logan

Wow! I live in Texas. What do you make with your fabric?

Racheal Jones

Flying back to SoCal on a red eye from redecorating a home in Hawaii. (Work still in progress) I have an alarm on to remind me.

AnnLeilani#InSoCal

Sweet! I fly from Texas to NYC a few times each year, specifically to buy fabric. Love love love the garment district!!!!!

Jordan Nuckels

Digital nomading in Greece so 5PM EST will 11PM for me, but I'll be there! Can't wait!

Kiki Reef

I’m currently going through a redecoration phase myself and can’t wait for the shot of gothic inspiration that I so desperately need 🦉🖤

Amy Bainbridge

Can’t wait!

Camilla Hageberg

So sad to miss the live again (I teach Sunday evenings), but I'll catch the recording later and have my tea in your honor then. I can't wait to see what you do with the bed. I have a canopy bed with curtains, but I'm sure you'll inspire me to upgrade, as always.

Mina Murray

I'm going to try to make it this time I always seem to forget. I end up watch it after the live is done.

Magdalena Mojica

Christine definitely teaches us patience whether we like it or not. But then everything she does is just magic.🤩💖

Sarah Cortez

Love everything you do, but I am especially excited for this canopy bed you speak of!

Melissa Kerns

Can't wait to see what you make!! I'm picturing you grunging-up the lace via airbrush to suit whatever the theme is... underwater algae? Black rot? Rust stained? Or perhaps eleglantly shimmering to catch the light of candles with real gold thread embroidery. I love that I never know whether your project will be gruesome, elegant, gothic, or cute!

Clairomancy

Can't wait, I don't have to work this Sunday so I get to join in for once!

Willow Birch

How exciting!

Joan Bishop

I'm so excited to see the garment district outing! And the Frankenstein bed is right up my alley!

Aunt Debbie Halloween

I'm so over the moon to see your Mount Everest ;) I can't wait for your wallpaper too !

Hermine-Virginie Simon

Oooo, velvet, lace and trim - I hope you plan to "tassel it up". :)

Racheal Jones

I'm here to support your amazing creativity and I'll love your monthly episode no matter what it is. Also a future request ( plee?) when the wallpaper is ready for retail.. to make decoupage grade of the owls and rats in various sizing.. i have some antique furniture to redo and the patten would work so well :)

Angela Pearson

Can't wait to see the big guestroom reveal!

Dennis

I am so excited Christine. I also have an 1860s Victorian home I am renovating (my home actually looks like a mini version of yours). I am cannot wait to see the furniture you bring into the room! I also plan to purchase some of your wall papers for my home as well.
