we're starting this week supposidly.. FH has 3 days off this week so it works out. and FH's partner is giving us his stove and fridge (so nice of him) so we dont have to buy anything. just have to buy the sink and cabinets. should be a quick process. just have to knock down one wall. and then were pretty much done!

Megan we are doing the same thing this past week and this week coming. We are going to be saving over $1,000/month and my mom and step dad and fh have been redoing the apartment for 2 weeks.

They knocked down a wall, redid the entire bathroom, put down wood floors, new carpeting in the bedroom, new paint and everything else.

We have to be out of our apt. by Friday. I am living in disaray. Half our apt. is packed up and the new apat. should be done by Tuesday hopefully.

It is stressfully, time consuming, and alot of hard work, but we just look at it as a stepping stone and hopefully shortly after the wedding we can start looking for our own home.

Good luck to you both

i think you had alot more to do then we do.. all we have to do is take down a SMALL wall and put in a wall of cabinets and hook up a stove.. the previous owners put all the plumbing in all we have to do is attach the sink.

you guys redid everything correct?
