100 Year Old School Reno in Sweden l 2ND YEAR

  • Опубліковано 13 вер 2024
  • In this video I am showing everything I did the second year after moving in, with some new footage I haven't shown before in my vlogs.
    My renovation philosophy is:
    - Re-use of materials
    - Eco-friendly and natural materials
    - Used furniture and decor
    - Using craftmanship and building preservation techniques
    - Build and renovate for generations to come. not to finish as quickly as possible
    - Preserving and bringing back the history of the house
    This will become more and more apparent the more you follow along, but this will answer many of previous asked questions of why I don't do something more simple. The list above often answers that ;-)
    Who's excited for year three? I am already a few months in and I am currently working on the last room of the guest apartment and have finished the bedroom as you can see in my last vlogs (before the year 1 and 2 summary)
    I hope you follow along, it's great to see so many new followers, I love reading all your wonderful comments!

      I daily have to supress all the constant thoughts reminders of things that needs to get done right away and to focus on today and what I am doing now. But I think I manage it well with a kind of relaxed attitude, but it's not for eceryone, thats for sure :-/ Thank you for the pep comment :-)

    Hi girl! Kudos for you on your skill level. Just one tip if you don't mind. When you do electrical in the walls try to keep 90° angles. So, vertikal line next to ceiling and horizontals to your plugs. It will allow you, future owners and electricians to be able to follow the lines, but also it will allow you to know where wires are on each wall and make it easy for you to hang thing on wall without hitting electricity. As a single mom who renovated apartments alone and interior designer this is only advice I could give now. You are doing a great job.

    Reno tip. When re-using trim boards, instead of hammering the nails back through and then pulling, use a pair of pliers and pull them all the way through. This can prevent splintering at the nail head, and less repair work afterwards.

    What impresses me the most isn't the restoration and skill (but that is very impressive!), but to see you take the proper safety precautions when doing the work!
    Harness, helmet, mask etc.
    Being mindful of the life of the house is important but too many people skip a harness when it literally is the difference between life and death!

      I think it used to be common in most of Europe up until acrylic paint became popular. I've been told that professional painters loved the new paint because it dried faster. So they could finish a job quicker and make more money. It's more of a hassle with these old types 🤷‍♀️
