Greetings, Anne !! What an incredibly beautiful (tastefully decorated) space - You have made it a HOME 🏡. From a design perspective, I am amazed at the effect of choosing paint color for the trim rather than the walls. 🤩. Thank you so much for opening your home so generously to your readers. -V. PS …..were you to put up screens or temporary walls in the upstairs for bedrooms, it might be a mid-term solution, which you could implement sooner rather than later…🤔

Thank you so much Virginia! The trim colours were really a gamble, but I think it turned out really well too. Even though it was used a lot in Danish farmhouses of old, you rarely ever see it anymore, so I’m glad you liked it! ❤️

I really love your desk. Do you mind sharing where you got it?

Of course! I’m afraid to say that I got it of Facebook Marketplace, though. It is an old desk, and unfortunately they do not make them like that anymore, not to my findings at least ❤️

I had a feeling that was the case. No worries, I'll trust that I'll find what I'm looking for in time. (Or maybe I can persuade my husband to build one...)

Loved the video and all the before and after photos. This is making me want to re-do our kitchen ☺️

I love the simple way you renovated everything, you made it lighter and brighter but simple and beautiful 😍 and I loved that you made all those curtains your self ❤️❤️❤️

Thank you, Melissa! ❤️ I did make all the curtains in the house myself, and for someone with no sewing experience it was quite the undertaking. Glad I did it though, it is a valuable skill to have in a house with many windows and no cabinets!

Your story is most enjoyable and inspiring. My husband and I renovated an 1880’s stone-built Ontario farmhouse many years ago. (We are in our 70’s now.) There was great satisfaction in all of that work, in seeing the improvements.

I admire your ambition and lifestyle.

As always, thank you so much, Catherine Ann ❤️ There really is a great pride and satisfaction to be found when you do it yourselves, and it was a big factor in why we wanted to document everything from the beginning! We want to remember all the work we did, and celebrate it!
