First Home

Welcome to the tour of our first home in Grand Prairie, Texas. We lived here for three years from 2013 to 2016. While we didn’t have a large budget for renovations, it’s truly amazing what some sweat-equity projects like scraping and smoothing the popcorn ceilings and repainting almost every room of the house, and gathered and DIY decor were able to accomplish!

Click here for a Virtual Open House tour I put together when our house was on the market.

Keep scrolling to visit each room in the house, where you can read related blog posts and even shop the look!
