Something you might not know about me: before opening Birre Home, I studied interior decorating.
Also something you should know: I stumble over my words in the first 15 seconds of this video and simply could not be bothered filming it again. 😂 So we’re rolling with it.
Now we’re getting ready to renovate the upstairs of our own home, so I finally get to put everything I learnt into practice, with the added pressure of knowing that if I make a questionable decision, I’ll have to live with it. 😂
I’m starting a new series called Before the Reno, sharing the things I’m doing as an interior decorator before we begin.
There’ll be measuring, inspiration, planning, moodboards, lots of samples and probably around 5 to 10 changes of mind.
This won’t be a perfectly polished renovation series. I’ll share what I choose, why I choose it, what I learn and anything that doesn’t quite go to plan.
Follow along if you’re renovating, decorating or simply enjoy watching someone else make all the decisions.
