An alcove in a house with a hanging plant in an orange pot, a shelf, a cabinet door, and a windowsill.
I made a shelf with brackets and everything. #womancarpenter #plantmom #centuryhome

Calling all century home dwellers! ๐ I live in one myself and I'm always fascinated by the history. Do you live in a house that's 100 years old or more? I'd love to hear your stories, experiences, and any quirky historical details you've discovered. Share your century home tales below! #CenturyHome

Shutdown project days 6-8: adding more shelves to my closet.
It's hard to know if I'm measuring wrong or if everything is off because in a #centuryhome nothing is straight. So I'll measure one or two points, but then the walls and other shelves aren't straight or level...

Shutdown project day 7: making my combined bathroom/laundry room dreams come true.
This is the only free wall space that has room to hang clothes.

Another door restored! Plates match the original hardware from 1900 and the dark maroon porcelain doorknob was picked out by our 4yo! Sheโs so excited about her โnew doorโ lol and helped a lot during sanding and shellacking. #centuryhome #restoration
This fully restored entry set is arriving any day now! I am so excited to get started on the front door restoration. The set cost an arm and a leg, but itโs almost impossible to find complete and fully functional restored sets, especially for house is built in 1900. ๏ฟผ#Restoration #Centuryhome
The front entrance of a century home.
Sunflowers in full bloom in the rain.
An old fire hydrant, crusted with red paint.
Shots from a walk around the Queen's Park neighbourhood with the New Westminster Photography Club this morning. The walk was mostly focused on the historic buildings but it was dark and raining and I got distracted by a few splashes of colour.

One of the worst parts of buying a century home is finding stuff like this. Beautiful solid wood that was painted over for decades by landlords. The whole house is like this. The sad part is the cost of restoring this on my own is exponentially more than just repainting it. #DIY #centuryhome

Just put in an offer for a 1910 house. Wish us luck! #centuryhome #Oregon

More differenter #art and #craft day, here. I'm pretty stoked about the #colour, and #modding our #centuryhome is always fun. We'll. More like a #restoration, but you know.
Been in my house for a week now. Still a long way to go but it feels amazing to be here in century home. #centuryhome #homeowner
Iโll probably end up doing a room by room series like this eventually. Lovingly refer to this room as The Room Formerly Known As DogPeeRoom. Iโll let you guess why
#remodeling #homeimprovement #centuryhome
More floor shenanigans today. 1) Floor lotto--what will we win today 2) What--and I cannot stress this enough--the fuck? 3) Footprints from a dog who lived here long-ago found between layers of subfloor. โค๏ธ 4) Watch that first step. #centuryhome
