Magnolia Market in Waco, Texas



CHIP AND JOANNA GAINES
HGTV FIXER UPPER


Are you a fan of the HGTV show "Fixer Upper"?  If so, then you will know who Chip and Joanna Gaines are.   If not, then you really need to watch this fun and interesting show.

HGTV Fixer Upper

This series is set in Waco, Texas and follows the adventures of Chip and Joanna Gaines as they take a house in need of updating and re-do it for some lucky homeowners.  Chip is the muscle and works hard ripping out and adding back.   Joanna is the visionary and designer. They show the potential homeowners 3 houses within their price range and explain what can be done to enhance the house to bring it back to life and have it fit the needs of the new family.   


On a recent trip to visit Waco, The 3 Road Warriors visited Joanna's home furnishings shop, Magnolia Market.  On the day we visited, the little shop and out buildings were crammed full of folks buying lots of fun things.   In the admission of full disclosure, The Travelling Toe must reveal that she and friends did assist with the economic growth of the shop.....well we were there, so we shopped, and brought some goodies home with us!


Chip and Joanna have recently purchased some property closer to the downtown area and are in the process of rehabbing the buildings for their shops.  The property has some silos so the name of the new shops will be "Magnolia Silos".  It should be ready to open sometime later in the year.

So watch the HGTV show and then go to the store.   The Travelling Toe would not lead you astray!

Happy viewing!
