We were fortunate to be able to live with my mom for the 4 months our home was undergoing renovation. Not having a kitchen, and having lots of dust in every room because we were painting, removing walls, and replacing floors throughout the entire home made an easy decision to move out. Even though we moved out of our home, it was still very stressful. Our contractor moved fast, and we had to make lots of decisions that we hadn’t anticipated, quickly. I can’t imagine what the process would have been like if we hadn’t started looking at appliances, bathroom fixtures, tile, and sconces one year before we started renovation. The great thing about planning so far in advance was that we were able to buy lots of things on sale, and have time to make the best decision on big ticket items like our accordion windows & doors, fridge, and oven. Having our “Remodel” budget was such a lifesaver. Stoked that @youneedabudget created a program that’s versatile; we used it for the remodel, for our monthly budgeting, and for my blogging budget! I love it so much! If you have undergone any kind of renovation, what did you find the biggest challenge? If you haven’t yet, do you have any questions about the process? . . . . . http://liketk.it/2CvEh liketkit @liketoknow.it LTKhome LTKfamily LTKkids @liketoknow.it.family @liketoknow.it.home Follow me on the LIKEtoKNOW.it app to get the product details for this look and others
