I really thought the renovations of my fairytale Cottage were going to take three weeks, tops! After a month in, I was still so far from where I wanted to be. I got very frustrated and a little depressed that my dream house was not showcase ready.
It seems like the more I did the more I found still needed to be done. It has been almost 8 months since I moved in and I am still not ready for visitors!
These are the things I wish I had known before I started so that I could be in the right mindset for my renovations.
