Jenny Marrs is sharing one major behind-the-scenes detail of “Fixer to Fabulous” that fans often wonder about. The HGTV star dished on one of the more surprising parts of the show that viewers never get to see.
Jenny Marrs Gives Inside Scoop on ‘Fixer to Fabulous’
On December 5, Marrs took to Instagram to clear up one thing fans often wonder about. Do they renovate more than just what is revealed on the show? It turns out, the answer is yes!
“Fun fact time! Did you know we film 60 hours of footage for each 43 minute episode of ‘Fixer to Fabulous?'” she wrote in the caption. “This means that there is a LOT of footage (59 hours worth 🤯) that you don’t see!”
Marrs continued, “So, we aren’t always able to reveal every space in the home on camera (extra bathrooms, bedrooms, offices, etc). But I can assure you that just because you didn’t see it on the episode, doesn’t mean it’s not there.”
She noted, “For example, the Ketners’ home has a fully renovated full bathroom for the kids, pantry and laundry room — these spaces just didn’t make the edit.”
“Just a little behind the scenes info for your Friday! (Hope that helps because I did get a lot of questions about if there is only one bathroom for seven people),” she added.
HGTV Fans Say They Want to See More
The comments section was flooded with fans saying they wish they could see more of the home renovations on “Fixer to Fabulous.”
“Oh, it would be cool to see other rooms,” one fan noted.
Another fan wrote, “I vote to extend the show to 2 hours! We want to see all the hard work y’all put in.”
When one fan noted they want to see everything, Marrs responded, “I know it! That’s why I loved the four episode renovations like The Welcome Inn and Italiano! We got to show it all!”
Marrs also answered another fan’s burning question about the show: “The furniture we see in the reveal, is that what is staged or does the family keep it?”
She responded, “They keep everything Dave makes and things like the hutch in the kitchen.”
“The sofa, for example, is offered to them at a discount if they want to purchase it,” Marrs continued. “We work with a local furniture store and I choose the pieces that work in the house now that it’s been reconfigured.”
The HGTV star added, “But they don’t have to buy anything or they can buy it and keep it exactly as it is when we finish. It’s up to them!”
