Renovation Transformations
Posted by Samantha Drury Shore on
I don't know about you, but as an interiors fan, there are few things I enjoy more than a really juicy "before and after" reveal of a room renovation. The more hideously dated the before picture is the better, in my books. I've rounded up a few of my faves that I've spotted recently(ish) on Insta.

"Did you buy some tiles for the bathroom?", "Nah, I just went through the magazines in the recycling instead." Honestly, this is one of the best before pics I have ever seen.

What I love about this one is even though you can see the good bones in the 'before' pic, the end result is still a delightful surprise.

How (I mean, HOW) is this even the same room?! There's hope for us all.

I know this isn't the same angle, but you can still see what a complete overhaul there has been here - sterling work. Christ, that 'before' carpet though. Wow.

Boom! Black grouting is always a win - love this transformation.

Proper building site to monochrome masterpiece - love it!

So it's not just interiors that can have a huge face lift. What can I say, this is some SERIOUS vision right here.
Cabin Renovation by Nor-Folk
You may already be bored of me banging on about our glorious stay at The Water Cabin in the Norfolk Broads. If not, check out my recent blog post! Fiona from Nor-folk made this wonderful video about their renovation process and there are a few extra before and after shots below. Such a fab project.

Illustrating with this panelling that you really can make anything look good by painting it white.
Our House!
These last shots are from my own home. We've still got some changes we'd like to make (and it's rather cluttered with toys right now), but as you can see it's been quite a long road from what we had to start with. We pulled out the old carpets about 5 years ago now and my retinas are still burning.

Ta da! Any top suggestions on what to do with our place next, do comment!
I hope you've enjoyed scrolling through this and ooh-ing and aah-ing like you're at a fireworks display (I heard you). I'd love to compile another one of these, so if you have a renovation project you'd like to share, do send us your pics! Email me, Sam, at: hello@whiteblackgrey.co.uk.
