Before and After, DIY

I've been waiting for a long time to post a very drastic #before and #after DIY. So excited to share our finished front porch with you. If you haven't read the story on how we found this lot you can find it here.

#before - April 27, 2018

Excavation started June 14, 2018.

This house really was a HUGE do it yourself project. Tim did so much of the work and I am forever grateful and will always be impressed at his attention to detail and work ethic.


It's really hard to believe that we lived with just dirt in the front for almost a year.






Rocking bench: Walmart
Rugs and yellow pillow: Hobby lobby

#after - July 4, 2020
Just waiting on the grass to fill in a bit more. The front is finally DONE (for this year)!
