a good before and after.
Visiting a long renovation or design project every morning and seeing the gears of progress sometimes turn slowly puts you in the mood for some instant gratification. I came across this roundup at Better Homes & Gardens. I think you’ll enjoy it. Its the classic ugly duckling to swan montage.
Some of my favorites from the roundup,

Ranch turned cottage, they used some great materials here like brick, cedar shingles, copper gutters. They kept the crooked tree.
