Marja and Harry moved from an apartment to a 678-square-foot house with a small garden, seeking more nature. They renovated the property extensively, transforming every room themselves. Marja chose a compact IKEA kitchen for efficiency despite suggestions for a larger kitchen. The bathroom received a significant update using tile paint, including a vintage-style toilet. They took on tasks like plastering the bedroom, driven by the urgency to make the house livable without waiting for contractors.
"Having a need to move in really pushed us to get the work done, and not having the time to wait for trades meant we had to do it ourselves (with some help from good friends and family of course!)."
"I wanted a toilet that looked like a toilet from 1920," Marja admits.
