LIVING ROOM BEFORE
AFTER- we knocked down the wall between the living room and kitchen as well as the one between the living room and dining room to open the space up and we closed up the former kitchen (on the other side of the dining room) to make another bedroom.

OUTDOOR SPACES
Wow! I’m just amazed how someone can think of such creativity. I wish you could come and remodel my home. You are such an inspiration to remodel my home on a budget with household items. Can you please help me get some of this stuff done? Maybe give me some steps to follow. Thanks so much for sharing and being so inspiring!

XoxO – Kara is highly motivated and can pretty much do anything she decides to do, but me on the other hand, I tend to procrastinate and drag my feet. It seems like I go through waves of productivity.
My strategy for getting going is to start with some small projects that you know for sure you can complete in one “sitting” and something that isn’t too difficult. You want the first project to be a total success. Hopefully you will feel the “High” of getting something done and checking it off you list and it will motivate and encourage you to tackle the next item on your list. If you are just getting started there is no reason to jump to a really difficult project. Your skills and confidence will grow with each project.
You can’t let indecision or fear stop you, just start!
