With enough planning and creativity, you can turn a small space into one that works for you! Our home was probably the 10th or 11th home we looked at in a two month span, so I had seen smaller living rooms than the one in our house. A lot of the homes in the area we were looking to buy were built in the 1970’s and it showed. Even after some major home renovations and even large additions, some homes still had very tiny living spaces. It was a huge turn-off if I’m being honest and I started to wonder if I could even handle it. My husband assured me that I would “do what you always do and make it nice”, but I really had my doubts.
