MEET TALIA! FROM RENO NOVICE TO RENO QUEEN!

Hey, Guys! We know we’re sometimes prone to a little overexcitement #thatsyoulana when it comes to talking all things renovating and, of course, the Reno School, so don’t believe the hype… until you’ve read these REAL reviews from REAL Reno School students! Then believe it all!

We’re shocked, amazed and so damn proud of how these guys and gals have turned their reno dreams into dream houses. And we’re lucky that they were up for being quizzed on how the Three Birds Reno School helped them along the way. We kept quiet long enough for these lovely students to tell you about the Reno School in THEIR words.

BON'S CHRISTMAS LIST

It’s Bon’s first Christmas in her ‘new’ home so is it any wonder that she jumped early and got the tree up earlier than most! But for the rest of us, we’re starting to feel a little anxious about the pending festivities and also - what to buy!

HOOKED ON HACKS!

If you love custom furniture, but can’t afford to splash your cash on fancy pants furnishings throughout your whole home… we can help! We jumped on the #IKEAhack bandwagon back in House 3 with their Bergsbo wardrobe doors and then again we painted their beds in Bonnie’s Dream Home. You might just say we’re hooked on hacking.

THE CROWNING GLORY OF HOUSE 9

This little ugly duckling of a house needed a lot of help in the roof department! The original tiles left a lot to be desired but we didn’t have the budget to splash the cash on a whole new roof. We wanted the extension to complement rather than contrast the original roof, so needed to find the perfect crown to sit atop this little black beauty.

WHICH WINDOWS WILL WORK FOR YOU?

Doors and windows have a HUGE impact on the interior of your home but I’m afraid to say they’re often an afterthought for many renovators who get distracted by more glamorous decisions involving their kitchens, flooring and furniture. But long after those items have fallen out of fashion, your windows and doors will endure.
