Transformation

I’m back with more before and after photos of the changes we made to our home since we purchased it in 2021. Sadly, this home is now our rental property and we have moved on to another home to revamp.

But the pictures in the beginning are what the home looked like when we purchased it. It needed quite a bit of work and one of the most time consuming projects that we did to this home was remove the popcorn. I know for sure that I do not want a home with popcorn ceilings ever again because it was a pain to remove. But after all of it was removed, there was an immediate difference in how our home looked.

Aside from updating the cabinets, we removed the two half walls downstairs and wrapped the columns. This also helped to create more of an open concept for this home especially since the ceiling height was 8ft.

We also changed out the laminate vinyl plank flooring to help make the space look and feel bigger.

I’m super excited about the outcome. I would love to hear your comments and ideas. I hope you all enjoy this post! #hometransformation #renovatedhome #homerenovationproject

... Read moreHome transformations can be both exciting and challenging. Whether you’re planning to renovate for personal enjoyment or for potential rental opportunities, understanding key trends can make a significant difference in your project's success. One popular trend in home renovations is creating open-concept spaces that maximize natural light and spatial awareness. Removing unnecessary walls can significantly enhance the feeling of space, especially in homes with lower ceiling heights. Features such as higher ceilings can be accentuated with appropriate design choices, leading to an airier atmosphere. Upgrading flooring is another impactful change; modern laminate vinyl plank flooring offers durability, style, and ease of maintenance, appealing to many homeowners and renters alike. Additionally, focusing on lighting fixtures, neutral color palettes, and smart home technology can modernize renovated spaces and attract potential tenants or buyers. Overall, a well-thought-out renovation plan can transform your home into a desirable living space, elevating both comfort and aesthetic appeal.

Dresser transformation
This dresser was dated and ugly but I knew there was a show stopping piece underneath. I refinished the top to let the real wood shine and painted the body a pretty neutral. I shined up the original brass hardware and added some legs for extra height. #furnituretransformation #furnitureflip

I saw this idea on tiktok and had to do it!! It elevated this space so much and i’m so happy I did this:) The black peel and stick is from amazon for $7.99 and looks like real wood! It’s from the brand Teemall and it’s called “10M Black Wood Grain Removable PVC Waterproof Border Wall Decor”. I hope
