When we moved into this 1940's fixer-upper, I had a vision for every corner, but I didn't realize just how much heart (and sawdust) it would take to get here. From the "no-demo" kitchen refresh to the seven-month living room labor of love, every project has been about leaning into that cozy feel. We’ve DIY’d the living room, dining room, and the half bath ourselves—and we’re just getting started! It’s not perfect, but it’s ours. 🏠🛠️1940s Cape Cod HouseFixer Upper JourneyDIY Home RenovationsCollected and Cozy HomeBefore and After Home TourBudget-Friendly DIYNew England Homefixerupper1940shousediyhomerepaircollectedhomehousetour LTKHome LTKSeasonal LTKstorytime
