I can taste completion! At this stage in the renovation, I am constantly encouraging myself to push through. The product delivery times and onslaught of small adjustments is cumbersome and tiring.
There were many laughs and tears as I worked on renovating my mid century home in Tacoma, Washington. Here are some of the behind-the-scenes clips of renovating my lovely home.
BEFORE and AFTER photos of the 6 month renovation in Old Town Tacoma. Not only were all finishings replaced (bathroom, kitchen bedrooms). BUT also the plumbing, wiring and all systems in the house!

The intention in doing these video series throughout my home renovation was to shed light on what the ENTIRE home renovation process. Here are my 3 big lessons learned.

If you can’t tell from the video – I am tired! Overwhelmed with the feeling of satisfaction and gratitude, after all that has been accomplished the last week and a half. Constant communication between contractors and vendors, rearrangement of schedules, trusting relationships and good ol’ hard work is the only reason we are on track to begin insulating and hanging drywall.
