Let me start with saying my husband loves a project. We are not TV people so we normally have some kind of project going. A couple of years ago we sold our home where we lived for several years. You don't realize what all you have until you start moving it.
We bought a fixer upper and completely remodeled it while living in it. I don't recommend that, unless you can handle total chaos. Talk about a challenging time and as if that was not enough we started building a house as well. CRAZY yes I know!! Did I mention it was our daughters senior year?
For sure a busy time for us!! I will tell you we survived not sure how but we did. There were days I was not sure we would ever finish it but we made it, sold the fixer upper and finished the house. It was a long process with lots of long days and nights of working but we made it and I have to say it turned out great!
If you love a project handy with your hands and want to build your own home I say go for it. It is very rewarding when you step back and see what you have created, you turned your vision into something real. No its not easy and not for everyone but if you have the talent and time go for it!! I will share with you some pictures.
My favorite parts of the house is our bedroom loved how the fireplace turned out he really did a great job with it. Another space I like is the back porch, we spend a lot of our time there.
This is the first of a series, I will show you more of the house and our thoughts behind our choices.
