My name is Kim and I'd like to invite you to join my husband and me as we, project by project, turn our little 30 year old ranch style fixer-upper into a one-of-a-kind, old-fashioned cottage - and on a very small budget. Travel with us as we take this "cottage" renovation and transformation journey, for there is so much work to do! If you love the charm and simplicity of days gone by, you'll feel right at home here. Please feel free to email me with your questions and comments...and remember to sign my cottage guestbook before you leave!
