We custom built our home, but ran into a VERY expensive snag during construction so a lot of minor details were scrapped. It's been 3 years and I need to finish things up. I'm going to work on the house project over the summer of 2016. I must note here that I have a lot of materials to work with, and much
of my work will be deciding what to keep and what to send to the thrift
store. I also work part time. Time is a precious commodity!
Goals:
1. Budget of $50 in each room...(leftover $ can be added to another room's budget)
