Drab to fab

 

Renovating you say?  My mind instantly conjures up cutesie pinterest projects, adorably easy and stress free. In my mind they take up an evening or at most a Saturday afternoon. Easy. Very very easy. And since I have the added bonus of a builder husband, even easier. Right? Delusioned much.  Painting in my mind was a quick slap-it-up activity. Ya no, it's not. I have watched my man work harder than any person should have to every weekend, week after week, month after month, this last year. Literally blowing my mind with skill and talent. Making something beautiful every step of the way.

While pictures will never do the place justice or show the painstaking wall paper stripping process of every room, plastering, walls replaced, floors levelled, insulation, landscaping and general makeover; follow along the journey our little beach house has undergone. Massive thank you to those of you who made this reno happen. We could not have done it without you.

I'm in love with Nathe's custom made timber bench top! I married a keeper :)
