GRAND FINALE! – Old Town, Home Remodel is COMPLETE!
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.
EPISODE 7: HOME RENOVATION – Modern Kitchen Design
The kitchen is IN! Mostly, that is. The island is not yet set to prevent a lot of headache with cutting the Oak Floors around it, so we choose to install the island after the floors are in.
Old Town Coastal Cottage
If there was a neighborhood boardwalk of Tacoma, Old Town would be it. This coastal home, built right in the middle, Four blocks from Ruston Way Waterfront.

EPISODE 6: Drywall, Insulation & Sneak Peak of Plumbing fixtures
What a difference a week makes! Three inspections were signed off on by the City of Tacoma (Framing, Insulation and Electrical). Gas lines were stubbed out to the (soon to be) new furnace, fireplace and stove. Follow along as I (Jenny Wetzel) Renovate my 1959 Modern Home in Tacoma, WA
EPISODE 5: HOME RENOVATION – Hello Great Room!
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.
Episode 4 – Budget, Scheduling + Q&A
One month into my home renovation in Tacoma Washington and I’m really happy with the progress we’ve made in the first 30 days. Follow along I update this Mid Century Home in Old Town Tacoma!
Episode 3 – What is Knob and Tube wiring – Tacoma, WA home renovation
Tacoma, Washington – Our town is composed of mostly, older Craftsman, Tudor, Bungalow and Victorian style homes. With the admirable (and older) architecture comes dated systems (like Knob and Tube electrical and Galvanized plumbing). After so much wear and tear, these systems will eventually need to get replaced
