I was reminded this week of 2 before shots of our Pen Y Llechwedd, and I am most happy with her changes. Whilst we will leave the full reveal until we are satisfied with her being complete, I will show these two before and nearly afters to show you our progress.
This is how the front looked a few days after we took her over. Whilst the hedges had been a little maintained, the garden was completely grown over.
Here she is, just last week, still not completed, but finally maintained and presenting with the splendour she deserves.
This is the original view from our lounge into our dining room, my goodness what a change this has seen. So dark and oppressive, I just cannot remember it this way. Thank goodness for her charm, otherwise I don’t think I could ever have imagined the changes we have made.
The photos simply don’t do it justice! I am totally in love with what we have accomplished.
I love every piece of furniture we have chosen.
I adore my drinks ‘cart’.
Love this piece, that took us months to find.
I’m really happy with how far we have come. There is certainly plenty of work still to be done, but I feel now, after seeing the before photos, we are well on our way.
Are you renovating your home? Have you renovated before?

I can’t wait for the big reveal! It’s just dreamy – you have impeccable taste!
Me too Sammie, I can’t wait for it to be finished. xx
Wow! It looks amazing! I love old houses like that with the wide open verandahs, the polished floors and immaculate gardens. When can I move in? ? We have renovated and built before. I too, am a builder’s wife ?
We should make a club Renee, The Builders Wives Club, where we can discuss ways to get the everyday waterproofing membrane out of their clothes, or compare splinter removal techniques. ?
Would love to share our space with you, I’ll swap you for one of the kids, do you think Hubby would be ok with that?
Lol! Sounds like a good deal to me ?
Bravo! What an incredible space you’ve created. That drinks cart is definitely calling my name!
Have a lovely Easter
