Old Home Love

Probably our Most Controversial Post…

Probably our Most Controversial Post…

Welcome!

Hi! We are Andy and Candis (picture us waving excitedly/awkardly to you.)  We have talked about starting a blog for quite some time now to document our historic home renovations…I don’t know why it has taken so long…possibly because I am a control freak graphic artist who wanted our blog to be perfect before launching (spoiler alert: it’s not), but we are TOO excited to not write down all of

  • DIY Tip: Replicating Historic Molding

    Having historic molding recreated can be expensive...although there is certainly a time and place to spend that kind of money, you can usually make a very similar look from off-the-shelf molding!

  • DIY Tip: Refinishing Floors

    Make sure to use the right kind of sander when refinishing your floors! It takes a little bit of practice, but a large belt sander works much better than a random orbital!
