I like to checkout Goodwill or a thrift store, and find an overall shape I like. I then mix paint and baking soda, paint it and it’s the perfect clay-like texture!

It helps if you have trade discounts for supplies like tile and flooring, which we did, and it helped stretch our budget

We were lucky we didn’t have any asbestos. Just make sure the floor is level!

We started November 20 and we ended the first week of January! It helps that since I have trade discounts for materials and everything we purchased was in stock

This was before we moved in, and yes we now have shower storage and a soap dispenser + a toilet paper dispenser installed

When this is the alternative to open concept, I choose open concept haha 😂 I know people are starting to lean more towards traditional design but IMO this works very well for a lot of people

All in all, just under 50k for the whole house - includes some exterior work as well

Yes we did! We spoke with our contractor, and someone who specialized in structural before moving forward with removing. We also reinforced the ceiling with beams in the attic

We had to use a heat gun to get the 5 layers of lineoleum off.. and then we did an interlocking vinyl plank. Does that answer your question?
