Projects, Renovations & DIY, Oh My!
(A blog.)
In our blog we share everything—from tiny DIY projects to our total house renovations! You can learn how to improve your house on any budget, so get inspired and just start doing!
Nothing gets us more excited than seeing a space transform from bland or outdated into fabulous and fitting!
Need help? Reach out for a consult.
We’re happy to come check out your space and help you decide what can make it better for your enjoyment or to help you get it sold when the time comes.
If you or someone you know has a house that needs some work that you’d rather not do, feel free to give us a call. We’d love to chat about how we can help you out. If we can’t buy it from you as-is, we probably know someone who can OR we can help you make arrangements for repairs/maintenance so you can sell it.
Check back often, we are always working on something!
