Jenny Marrs Says Home Renovation Featured on ‘Fixer to Fabulous’ Was Emotional
On February 27, Jenny Marrs took to Instagram to share the heartfelt experience of rebuilding a special home featured on Fixer to Fabulous. The house was among many that required restoration after tornadoes tore through the community.
“This was such an emotional one,” Marrs wrote in her caption. “Our community suffered immense loss last May when tornadoes touched down all across town in the middle of the night. At the time, we had already planned to renovate Shelly and Alexa’s home—a cherished family home that once belonged to Shelly’s parents, Alexa’s grandparents—but after the storm, the scope of work changed drastically.”
She continued, “This home held countless family memories, and our job was to restore what had been lost—to bring back life, joy, and light. The reveal was incredibly moving, filled with tears, hugs, and heartfelt reminiscing.”
Reflecting on the project, Marrs added, “It felt so good to give this well-loved home back to this beautiful mother-daughter duo. 🤍”
Ahead of the episode, she shared another post emphasizing its significance: “This one is really special—we work on a generational family home that was devastated when the tornadoes ripped through town last year. This was such a meaningful project for us as our community reeled from the aftermath, and we set out to help rebuild—one home at a time. 🤍”
