My Cottage Project is Complete

My cottage make-over is complete and now I can enjoy this last bit of Fall weather relaxing by the water, rather than nailing boards, calling suppliers, evicting carpenter ants and carrying endless supplies. Check out our Portfolio page for more Before and After photo’s. This truly turned into a labour of love and I couldn’t have done it so quickly without the help and support of family and friends.

We affectionately referred to this project as “30K in 30 Days” because we were working within a quick timeframe and a tight budget. How did that go? Well all I can say is you can get things quickly or cheaply, but you can’t have both. Is it possible to upgrade/ renovate within a budget or a timeframe? Of course. Just make sure you are being realistic. Weather, life events, unanticipated problems, etc., at some point will probably come into play. Be flexible, patient and never lose site of the end goal… your wonderful space created specifically for you and your loved ones.
