Joanna Gaines, known for her sweeping home transformations, is taking on a project close to home in the upcoming episode of Mini Reni. Airing Wednesday, July 2, 2025, at 8:00 PM ET on Magnolia Network, An Enclosed Patio for Gathering, Season 1, Episode 9, sees Gaines tackle a renovation for her own parents. This time, the focus is on their outdoor patio, which she aims to convert into a more functional and stylish glass-enclosed space.
The concept behind Mini Reni is simple: big impact with smaller, budget-friendly changes. Gaines proves that thoughtful design does not always require large-scale demolition. In this instance, the outdoor area is set to become a multi-use room, perfect for potting plants and gathering around a fire with friends and family. It is the kind of practical yet elegant update that defines her style.
For viewers who enjoy a good before-and-after and appreciate design ideas that are both accessible and inspiring, this episode looks to be a good fit. It also provides a more intimate look at Gaines’s design process, working with a space that holds personal meaning.
