Episode Five, cabinteely | PHOTOGRAPHY & SUPPLIER LIST
Sweethearts Peter and Jessie Kelly, fell in love and married over 40 years ago in Kenya before finally returning to live in Ireland. In 1992, they moved to a three-bed semi in Cabinteely. The couple have seven kids and seven grandkids - but even though their four eldest have flown the nest - the Kelly household just doesn’t function properly as a family home.
The Kellys are a close-knit family but there’s no space to gather for meals because the cluttered living/dining space is effectively a museum hemmed in by Jessie’s huge collection of African artefacts collected on trips back to her native Kenya.
Over the years, the clutter has grown and now the chaotic layout has become overwhelming.
Enter: Dee, Pete and the team with a challenge to give the Kelly’s back their home without compromising the precious balance of Irish and Kenyan culture. Assisted by an enthusiastic support team of friends and family down at the local community centre, Declutter expert Aidan and the clutterbusters soon discover that Peter, not Jessie, is the main collector of the household. As Jessie sets about reducing her collection of artefacts, her husband Peter is less than thrilled to declutter his extensive stash of bags, briefcases and camera boxes.
Back at the house, with Dee’s design paused as she waits for Jessie to choose her favourite artefects, Builder Pete and the lads make slow progress repairing the damaged walls of the living room in preparation for a range of bespoke fitted cabinets. Meanwhile, upstairs, the reconfiguration of Jessie and Peter’s bedroom from dorm-room to the cozy boudoir they’ve never had - is a challenge in itself!
As the couple celebrate their Ruby wedding anniversary, it’s down to the Home Rescue team to give them back the home and bedroom they deserve.
Goodbye Clutter. Hello Makeover.
