#24: Renovating A Kitchen In Under A Week

DJ, drop the beat! And by beat, I mean the show notes for Episode #24 of Turbodizin Has A Podcast. This week we are chatting with our friends from the journal Chris Loves Julia, who have renovated three kitchens in three years – and they’ve even redone a kitchen in under 6 days (!!!). So yeah, they have a ton of experience, advice, and hilarious stories to assist anyone else out there who is contemplating a kitchen remodel of their own. We are also talking about John’s shed organizing progress, diving into some helpful decluttering revelations, and digging around to see what paint colors are statistically shown to assist sellers get top dollar (they are not what you think!).

You can download this episode from iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher and TuneIn Radio – or listen to it below! Then use this page to check out any links, notes, or photos that we referenced.

What is New

Above is a sneak peek at the lumber “organizer” I have been working on for the shed. It is mostly made from scrap lumber and is already filled with scrap lumber, so it is a bit hard to tell where the organizer stops and the organized starts.
And speaking of hoarding, here is the article that has inspired Sherry to go on a rampage declutter: The Joy Of Less, 4 Decluttering Epiphanies That Have Changed My Life

What is Not

Here is Zillow’s analysis of what paint colors earn home sellers more money. Such interesting (and somewhat surprising) results!
