About two months ago my sweet, new Mr. and I moved into a 1910 craftsman home. We immediately fell in love with the 10 foot ceilings-- actually, I don't think we saw anything else after that. Or else we might not have put in the offer. Because oh boy is it a project! But that's what we wanted. These "Rehab Addict" addicts are READY to give our cute, old home some new life. I am writing because we want you to learn from our mistakes.
(I can say this with confidence because I have already cut myself severely more than once-- and gotten an updated Tetnis shot. I may occasionally need my GPS to get to Target, but I can get to the doctor's office!)
I've seen it on the faces of our realtor, contractor, and all our visitors-- we are crazy! First time home owners in a house that needs a great deal of vision, as well as some safety updates. But you can't look at the original windows and woodwork, beautiful hearth, wood floors, and interior exposed brick and tell me this place isn't a diamond in the rough!
I can't wait to share this journey with all of you.
