Renovations

We’ve been busy renovating the barns over the past few months! Did I mention that I've learned how to cut wood myself? First, we worked on various room by adding reclaimed wood to the walls and salvaged architectural pieces. Now, we're  are transforming horse stalls into amazing rooms using reclaimed wood, salvaged architectural pieces, wallpaper, and paint.

Here's some photos so you can see what we've been working on:
