Budgets & Costs (Of Our Home Renovation)

When we bought the cottage in 2021 we knew it needed A LOT of work and that everyone else would have torn it down, but we saw potential and I love to save and salvage. We didn’t realize the pandemic and location of the cottage would have a huge impact on how much it cost to renovate. In today’s episode I'm breaking it all down… how much we’ve spent on renovating the cottage, our unique POV on setting budgets and the results from our poll of what you guys have paid for different home renovation projects!

What do you see when you look around your house, your apartment, that room or space that has never quite lived up to its full potential? We hope you see possibility, excitement, and your dream home coming to life. XO MaCenna (MaCenna Lee) has been disassembling and reassembling everything she can get her hands on since she was a little girl. After years of trial and error, she’s built a successful YouTube channel where she takes her viewers along for the journey of the do-it-yourself lifestyle. From renovating her 111-year-old home in Texas, to figuring out the perfect design for a coffee nook, she’s not afraid to get her hands dirty. She’s not afraid to try, try, and try again. Part of the process is learning as you go. Never stopping til you see your vision in front of you. In this podcast, she’s breaking it down, step by step, story by story, of how she manages to do it all, with her own two hands. Every episode of With My Own Two Hands will be an inside look into the thoughts, planning, struggles, and mindsets that have allowed MaCenna to figure out home renovation, decorating, and inspiring others to tackle everything from weekend projects to dream projects. Grab your second-hand finds, the haul from the hardware store, the oodles of color swatches and put the circular saw down. It's time to trade your ear protection for some headphones while MaCenna shares her years of experience and knowledge while answering your questions and gives tips on how to make your blueprints into a place you call home.
