Do It Yourself are words to live by!

Who’s Afraid of a Cheap Old House?
Vanessa and Dan purchased their house in Troy, NY for just $90,000 and came to us with the tiniest of budgets but also the biggest of hearts and the most “CAN DO!” attitudes!
We all pitched in to strip the wood ourselves using incredible tools from Eco-Strip, and furnished this entire room with secondhand finds, including the chandelier that Ethan and I had waiting patiently in our basement for the right house to come along!
