The Block & House Rules certainly have a lot to answer for! We have been living our very own renovation rescue for the past 10 months. My time line was 3 months to completion, of course my husband new all along that I was mad. All thanks to the fairy tale that reality TV renovations plant in your brain. Still, it was all worth it. This shabby little cottage looks so lovely and who knew my husband was so clever. Watch his "to do "list grow.
