One home in need, 17 rooms (spaces) to makeover, $25,000 total budget (which include flooring, renovation, paint, furniture, window treatments, accessories etc.), and one year to get it done. Can this lion house be tamed?
We moved in exactly one year ago today, rolled up our sleeves, did some strategic shopping and went for it. It was a fun challenge, and has resulted in a house that now feels like a home.
Here is the movie version, or you can check out each room with links to details below.

Susan!!
What a great job on your house. It looks great and on such a budget and time frame. You did a fantastic job. Very stylish and light bright and airy. Much better than the before. Love the reference to taming the Lyon House.
Those lyons are the hallmark and the hit of the block when you dress them up. Love it all!!! Well done.
Oh, my goodness!
You did such an amazing job – on a budget!
You are my hero.
(And, I’ll be stopping back for motivation and inspiration!)
