Before photos
These pictures are not shared to say how awful it was before, merely to show what we started with as a comparison to where we've ended up. The house was on trend when it was built. It was a lovely place to visit, cosy and welcoming and it was with great sadness that we embarked on its renovation as we often felt like we were deleting my father-in-law's mark and so much of his life. What kept us going was knowing that this is what he wanted us to do. I cried many tears wondering if he knew which day was the last day he left his home and all his belongings. It really did feel like he had just walked out the door that morning, and never came back. There were so many questions I wanted to ask him about bits'n'bobs we came across. As I type this I can feel the tears welling as we miss him so much and his passing was far too premature.
