"What dreams are made of: Amazing home improvements we wish we could afford."


"It’s incredible how finishing a project makes your home look completely different. You might have added a new part that’s practical and stylish. Or, you may have completely renovated an old room. It’s so much fun, but yes, it is expensive. Mainly fun though, we think you’ll agree. Of course, there are some home improvements we wish we could do and might be just outside of our price range, but are far toward the bottom of our ‘needs’ list – those amazing home improvements we wish we could afford. These are what our dreams are made of."
