Hi, Karen! The dining chairs are from Dot & Bo, although this particular style is no longer available. I found a similar style here. Hope that helps!

Hi, Lydia! The basement is mostly where the kids hang out and play, but Joe and I spend a lot more time down there now that we have a couch. Thanks for your comment!

Thanks for your kind comment, Anna! We received some materials for the remodeling projects at cost or for trade, but paid for the labor (the biggest material trade was the windows in the sunroom). The amounts in the post are reflective of what Joe and I paid for the projects. I hope that helps clarify a bit!

Thank you, Clare! No, we haven’t had any issues with mold in the tub/shower area, although we did need to caulk the space really well. Best of luck with the bathroom project if you decide to move forward!

Hi, Lena! Thanks for your kind comment! I’m so glad to hear you’re in love with your new home. Remodeling a fixer upper takes a lot of time and energy (and money) but in my experience, it’s been so worth it.

Thanks for your comment, Amanda! We’re going to miss this home a ton. I’m excited to share more about the new space soon!

We see photos of your living room a lot but wasn’t sure if you used the basement as an everyday space as well.

If you’re open to sharing more, I’d love to know if the products/services you received for free are also reflected in the numbers. It’s always helpful for expectations to understand the true cost when sponsorships are involved.

The new family is going to love the beautiful home you created. I also wanted to say thank you for providing numbers on your remodel projects. We too purchased a fixer upper where my mother in law pleaded with me to not buy it because I was blind to all of the issues, yet here we are on the other side of a $100k first floor remodel and completely in love with our home.

The new owners are lucky to move in to such a beautifully done space. Can’t wait to see where you are headed.
