I love how gracious you are towards the previous owners, which is very thoughtful since you never know if they are watching. Quite often, before and after makeover videos focus on how horrible the “before” was in order to make the “after” better by comparison. But you acknowledged the work they had already done, and simply added that you had made it more your taste. I can tell you put a lot of work into your home, nonetheless, and it’s beautiful. Your thoughtful words make watching your video so pleasant! Thank you
You are truly blessed to have a father, a husband, and a brother-in-law that is able to help you. Cherish that! My father passed away. I miss him dearly. I'm not married, and I don't have a brother-in-law who can help. I love watching your video because even though I don't have anyone to help I know that I can do some things on my own. I do love your bathroom makeover. I wouldn't change a thing. I love the front yard with the window boxes and flower bed. You are truly blessed that you have people in your life the good Lord blessed you with ❤ thank you sharing and reminding me of how blessed we are with family in our lives
Wow! This video has really given me faith that I'll be able to have a beautiful home like yours. I live in a fixer upper and lately have felt so upset that we even bought this home, but now I'm feeling inspired to make this into my dream home even though it may take some time. Thank you for posting this video!
I cannot imagine three energetic little boys in that space. It's so lovely and pristine. We like a lot of the same things. Painted furniture especially. Recently, I painted one of our cupboards a moss green. It brought the outdoors in. And made it feel very cottage-y. Inside the cupboard are my tea cups and old time candy jars. The door inserts are "mesh screening" which allows me to view - and enjoy - my collectibles. TYFS. Your home is charming.
Stunning and warm! Thank you for not only for sharing the beauty of your home, but also your character that reveals a grateful heart that even extends to the previous owners and the work they had completed before you purchased their home. Bless you!
Loved the before and after! You and your husband are quite talented and is he a professional carpenter. It is wonderful to have family that can help and love to do so. Thank you so much for the inspiration and sharing your home tour.
You and your husband have done a fabulous job on your house. It is so romantic and cozy. The exterior of the house is so charming. Love the window boxes. Love watching your videos.
Absolutely LOVE what you've done with your darling cottage.:) Your hubby is the hardest working guy! I love how he makes all your wonderful ideas come to life. Always look forward to your videos...so inspiring!
The love you share and pour into your home is so very apparent! Love seeing how your husband brings your vision to life with every detail so exquisitely produced. Your home is absolutely stunning and the bonus is your cost effective means of upgrading your surroundings, as well as embellishing everything with gorgeous , affordable decor! Thank you for inviting us in and sharing your life with us! You are the dearest gift, Andrea! Many hugs from a distance - xxxx's
How blessed you are to have a husband who is so handy around the house. I love my husband but changing a light bulb is a challenge for him (a bit of an exaggeration but not much) :) The first time I viewed your vlog was this past Christmas and I was immediately drawn not only to your beautiful home but to your sweet spirit. Your love for all things beautiful shines through your beautiful face. Keep sharing. Your vlog is by far my favorite.
Oh my word that made me laugh out loud haha!! Yes, my husband is such a blessing!! :) Thank you so much for all the encouragement, I'm still new at this and learning so it really means so much to me! :)
I was discovered your site. Truly, truly beautiful. You both have worked so hard and your home is so warm and inviting. I can appreciate your hard work. My husband and I built a cottage type log cabin. It is our dream home. So I understand how much love it entails. My husband is a wood worked as well and has saved us so much money over the years. I know you are proud of your better half. I know he must be proud of you! What a great team you make. Your sons are blessed to have such a special place to call home. Just watch - your sons will be home renovators too! Our son watched Dad over the years and does much of the same thing his father did. Now Dad is a consultant as well! Blessings to your family.
Aww that is so so sweet!! Yes! They want to help daddy all the time haha!! Your cabin sounds so beautiful :) Thank you for your kind words, they mean so much!! :)
Beautiful renovation, to see the before and after photos really allows us to see how much this darling cottage has been transformed by you and your husband. I love your style ,it’s clean, cozy and with such wonderful light and with an airy look to each of the rooms. Love,love love. Thank you for sharing your home with us.😊❤️
The sloped roof and rounded front door are so charming. You made the exterior and interior so beautiful. I hope you make many many more wonderful memories there. Thanks for sharing.
I have a crush on your beautiful cottage home !! So cozy, comfy and inviting. Love all the white and wood tones! Such a fabulous job on it all. We are never done renovating or decorating our homes. We evolve over the years, our style changes a little, etc... so wonderful to own a home and change with it! Gorgeous flower beds. That is something I did NOT inherit from my Dad! He had the greenest thumb! Incredible flower beds and garden. Lots of stones walls! But I did inherit our family home. The flower beds are gone,I did try to revive them.... I just couldn’t. Anyways... love the before and after. Thanks for sharing!
You have such a beautiful home and gardens. When I was first married, I put in and or redid the flowerbeds, it instantly made our tiny little home have so much personality. We too were on a tight budget and there weren’t many living plants in the original gardens. We received plants from my in-laws and my parents. My in-laws also helped with putting garden beds in. Many years and houses later, I still ask friends and family for plants. I still have plants from my mom, who has passed. I call my gardens, my memory gardens. I can tell you where each plant has come from. I remember each garden they came from and most importantly, the memories of the giver. I’ve given many plants to start new gardens, along with the stories of whom I received the plant from. So the memories continue. I love the style of your home, it’s so light and comfortable. I just subscribed to your channel.
Aww Donna thank you!!! That is the sweetest thing ever!!! Oh my goodness, I love that idea of memory gardens!! Thank you for sharing all that, I can't wait to do the same one day!! :)
Girl! Your home should be put in Better Homes & Garden! It's simply gorgeous 😍❤️! You have amazing taste & decor details! Thank you so much for sharing this home with us as it was a pleasure to see it! Maybe soon you will share the rest of it. Take care & until next time....
Your home is so beautiful, and all of your efforts have paid off handsomely, we lost our fixer-upper in the Historic flood in the Midwest, we had it just about the way we wanted it, so I built a brand new home miles away 🤗 it’s beautiful and safe from water 💕
We gardeners love to share! My first perennial garden 30+ yrs ago was started with plants from my mom's friend. To today gardening friends and I share bulbs, oversized plants, etc. Share the love!💖🌷🌼🌻🌹🌿
I am so in love with your home. I am grateful for the videos because I have a 1950's fixer upper. I am learning as I go along and am on a very strict budget, so your videos have been so helpful. Thank you for sharing your beautiful and cozy home. Please keep your videos coming!
Awe such a beautiful home! Amazing job, I love the details of it all! I so love the custom pieces your husband made, as well as that custom bathroom vanity! Loving all your videos, you are so beautiful and genuine! TFS! Blessings! 💕🌷🌺💐
Your home is stunning! I love every detail! There is so much character! For me personally, your home would be a dream come true. You and your husband must be so proud! Love your channel! Thank you for sharing! 👍🏻😊
I live in Grand Rapids and my girlfriend lives a few blocks from me in home with similar architecture. She calls it a storybook tudor. I think they look like something out of a story book. I just love the character they have. Your home is lovely. I am new to your channel and am enjoying your content. Take care- Sue from GR, MI
Aww hello from a fellow Michigander!! :) Yes, there is something so unique and charming about the architecture :) Thank you so much for the encouragement!
Andrea, was so excited to read “before and after “ on intro. I have so admired your style and was dying to see what your starting point. Wow... you have created a home of beauty! The bones of the house and your creative genius has transformed your home into a thing of beauty. Thank you so much for the before and after. ❤️
Aww Leslie you are so so kind!! I'm glad it was a fun watch for you...I'm always looking for new video ideas and I thought this might be a neat one! :)
I just discovered your channel. What a lovely home you have. I love Althea the changes you’ve made. Your home is so inviting. I have a old home built in 1917 so I home all the hard work that goes into making it your own. Looking forward to watching all your past videos and those you make in the future.
Oh I love your home. Have always wanted to live in a sweet cottage.i grew up in a small little house in the country and loved it. You are blessed to have a husband that can and will do the work on the home you needed
You are so calming and easy to watch, I love it! You’ve done such a wonderful job on your lovely home! I still love how you painted your piano. Thanks for sharing!🌺🌺🌺
What a beautiful transformation, Andrea. You and your husband have done a fantastic job. Many congratulations and thank you for sharing your home. Greetings from Spain 😊
I especially love your window boxes. They made such a difference to your home. I also love the color of your petunias. I mix in asparagus fern with mine in my window boxes. Can’t wait to see what you do next!
Beautiful cottage house! Love you & hubbies design sense, and all the hard work you’ve put into it!, I am a Michigan transplant to California,I grew up in North East Detroit. Still return visit my family & friend!😍
The stone under the deck makes such a great statement! I wonder if there is a decorative piece like a carved wall medallion that would look good on the swoopy part
So fun to see before and after~ that your vision for your home is still a work in progress nevertheless the progress is magnificent and so lovely. Showing all your family's hard work inside and out. Really adorable, beautiful and so cozy. Thank you for sharing it all with us, enjoyed. Blessings🍃🌼🍃
Everything in your house is so beautiful and detailed! I love that your husband made the mantle and it houses the pieces for the tv. Such a great transformation.
Andrea - I love your home. I love English cottage style. You two have done so much work and should be proud of what you accomplished. I love the shutters and window boxes and your lovely flowers. I hope you are able to do the insulation that you want. Michigan winters can be hard. Where do you live? I am in Lansing area and still shiver when I think of the ice storm of 2013. Have a wonderful day! Blessings - Judith
Hi Judith!! Thank you so much for all the love! :) Yes, I think this home may have been built for summers only? The fireplace is only for looks and the walls feel like ice this time of year haha!
I love your house !!! When I first saw your little numbered coat hooks in a previous video, I was on the hunt for myself!! Found some at Walmart and they are so cute ! Impressed with all the work you did!
I absolutely love your home. I’ve watched many before and after videos and I must say i thoroughly enjoyed this video and seeing how beautiful and charming your home is. TFS. 😊
You are the sweetest person ever! I hope to be able to help my future daughter in law out with gardening some day! Do you have a video on installing your board and batten?
Oh my word she would love that!! :) Sadly I do not, but I did write a blog post about it when we did the nursery! If you search board and batten you should find it :)
Hi I just watched this video and I loved everything you did. I live in Michigan too. I love your kitchen and what you did the only thing I would change is add a few plants that is if you have a green thumb and enjoy fooling with them. Above your fridge instead of the basket and flowers, (although very pretty) would be a perfect place for a plant because of that wonderful window you have there. You could get a vining plant and direct the vine to grow from the top of the fridge to drape around the window. Use small nails or even straight pins for the vine to rest on as it meanders around the window. I noticed you garden and bringing a few live plants into your home to satisfy your gardening bug in the winter. I don't know if you've found these wonderful vloggers but they are Garden Answers for Garden ideas, and Planterina for house plants. Both these women are so informative and fun to watch. They both live in areas that are the same growing zone as Michigan. Anyway I love your house and we have the same style and I'll be watching regularly. I have antiques as well. I hope you don't mind my unwanted advise. I'm almost 60 years old and I've earned the right to be mildly obnoxious... LOL!
Hahahah oh Dianne thank you for all that information!! You are not obnoxious! I welcome advise! It's so neat to hear other people's ideas and opinions. Thanks so much for introducing me to those channels as well! Can't wait to check them out! :)
Wow! Quite a transformation. I’m from MI so I understand the cold lol. Suggestion...could you put a pretty electric fireplace on your porch for warmth? Big Lots has a good selection of styles and you could “antique” it like you did that round table?
I love how gracious you are towards the previous owners, which is very thoughtful since you never know if they are watching. Quite often, before and after makeover videos focus on how horrible the “before” was in order to make the “after” better by comparison. But you acknowledged the work they had already done, and simply added that you had made it more your taste. I can tell you put a lot of work into your home, nonetheless, and it’s beautiful.

I love your house. My friend in Toronto had a similar style home and I absolutely loved it. Such a beautiful character home!
I especially love your window boxes. They made such a difference to your home. I also love the color of your petunias. I mix in asparagus fern with mine in my window boxes. Can’t wait to see what you do next!
Oh that is so so smart!! Thank you for the tip and all the love!! The window boxes were fun to design :)

You did a fabulous job! Charming. I love the Tudor slant roof over the door. Again, very impressive renovation. Bravo🎉
Lovely looking home, and it's an almost timeless look, love the way you have been gentle with the renovation and allowed it to develop over time,
Oh that means so much. Sometimes it's hard to be patience and work as your budget allows, but it's honestly the best way to go about it! :)
Beautiful make over. A home with a heart, full of love...love your style, Andrea! ❤️👌❤️
Thank you Cindy!! :)

Use small nails or even straight pins for the vine to rest on as it meanders around the window. I noticed you garden and bringing a few live plants into your home to satisfy your gardening bug in the winter. I don't know if you've found these wonderful vloggers but they are Garden Answers for Garden ideas, and Planterina for house plants. Both these women are so informative and fun to watch. They both live in areas that are the same growing zone as Michigan. Anyway I love your house and we have the same style and I'll be watching regularly. I have antiques as well. I hope you don't mind my unwanted advise. I'm almost 60 years old and I've earned the right to be mildly obnoxious... LOL!
Hahahah oh Dianne thank you for all that information!! You are not obnoxious! I welcome advise! It's so neat to hear other people's ideas and opinions. Thanks so much for introducing me to those channels as well! Can't wait to check them out! :)
Greetings from Dali, China!!!! Your home is beautiful!!!! Years of work went into this video... wonderfully done!!!!
Aww thank you so much!! :)
Wow! Quite a transformation.
I’m from MI so I understand the cold lol. Suggestion...could you put a pretty electric fireplace on your porch for warmth? Big Lots has a good selection of styles and you could “antique” it like you did that round table?
Stunning!!
