When we think of Clint Harp, we think of gorgeous carpentry.
But Harp has a lot more tools in his belt (see what we did there?)
Early fans of Chip and Joanna Gaines know Harp from his appearances on the original “Fixer Upper.”
When a custom piece of furniture was needed, Harp was always the guy that Jo called.
He was reliable each and every time, and always delivered gorgeous results.
This is the crazy way Clint Harp found out about his Magnolia online grid show.
But there’s a big story that goes along with it.
“Hey, Clint, you have time to talk next week?
Harp was in, but there was a spot of trouble just ahead.
What’s this idea?
I want to know more.
I don’t know anything.
I just know that Chip and Jo want to do something with me,'” Clint said.
“Thursday comes, and I get in my car and I drive and there’s no signal.
Of course, I’ve got this phone call.
It’s panic mode,” he said.
Talk about the worst kind of situation to be in.

Picture it.

“I had one bar and I called Sarah [Kuban].
Talk about divine timing.
“This is what Chip and Jo want to do,” Harp said Page told him.
“They want to make a show about old structures being turned from old to new.”
“I’m just going, ‘Yes, great.
This is fantastic,'” Harp said of the experience.
Talk about a whirlwind.
