We had the smallest budget, but brought our BIGGEST HEARTS to the restoration of this house in Troy, NY on Episode 5 of Who’s Afraid of a Cheap Old House? It warms our hearts that with a little extra creativity and a lot of added love, this turned into the happiest little place. Congrats Vanessa + Dan!
1️⃣ Let the original wood features breathe! With Eco-Strip and some mineral spirits, BAM!
2️⃣ Salvage architectural elements to get character and quality without breaking the bank! Like this door from Architectural Parts Warehouse / The Historical Albany Preservation
3️⃣ The absolute easiest: preserving what is already there! When you have vintage subway tile, you don’t touch a thing! Just enhance it with appliances from AJ Madison, hardware from Charleston Hardware Co., faucet from Vintage Tub & Bath, and countertops from MSI Surfaces!
