However your blog has really inspired us to do it anyway and use the budget we do have to make it happen.

You'd be amazed what a difference that can make! I would love to do another reno project, but not a home I'm living in while renovating something I could do up to sell or rent out would be great :)Michelle {Jarrah Jungle}https://www.blogger.com/profile/06787886183163179543noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-219555239282842526.post-61947528157185080072014-10-17T12:13:13.613+08:002014-10-17T12:13:13.613+08:00It would be so easy to go overboard on the kitchen...It would be so easy to go overboard on the kitchen and get the best of everything but its not really needed, its a million times better than it was!Michelle {Jarrah Jungle}https://www.blogger.com/profile/06787886183163179543noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-219555239282842526.post-66098439765233126442014-10-17T12:12:21.278+08:002014-10-17T12:12:21.278+08:00Thanks Linda, if only there was a world without bu...Thanks Linda, if only there was a world without budgets now that would be fun!

We are thinking about remodeling our kitchen this Spring and we don't want to spend a lot. We want to move in the next year or two and think we'll get more for the house if we update the kitchen (its the original kitchen, good shape... just old). We are so not DIY'ers like you! But, holy moly you saved SO much money. You guys need to start your own remodeling biz!Carriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07646332034591536363noreply@blogger.com
