  • Michelle and her brother added plenty of sweat equity while renovating this surprisingly spacious and light-filled garage apartment in Bryan, TX, and the finished product is absolutely stunning. With a budget of less than $5,000, this sibling reno team totally transformed the space using salvaged pieces, DIYs, and curated furnishings. The most recent addition includes a gorgeous 200 sq ft patio space, making Michelle's home perfect for entertaining guests as well as quiet nights at home.

    From a garage to a space like this! We love her outdoor space as well as her kitchen. What's your favorite part of her tour? Let us know in the comments.

      If you want a bigger and international audience why don't just add squaremeters so the rest of us don't have to look it up or stop caring for channels like this? I think it's a small improvement that could really add to the channel:)

    I love, love, love her place! It looks larger than 550 Sq.Ft.! She organized and decorated it well! She's so creative!
    Makes me want to convert my garage into an apartment! What is most fascinating about her is her helping others organize their spaces, too! I just love that!!🤗

    I live in TX and a decor like this is much more common in major cities Austin, Dallas, and Houston, so bravo to Michelle for being a very creative women. I love her sleeping nook, bathroom, and floating book shelf. She's giving me Kelly Clarkson vibes ☺️

  • @ciganyweaverandherperiwink6293

    She did a lovely job with such a small space. I'd be proud of myself too. Lovely. I would love to see the outside living space when plant pots, climbing plants etc have matured and made the space lush and dramatic. Such potential! 😊👍

    I love this!! It may be one of my favorite small spaces!! The natural light and big windows really open up the space. I have an armoire too that I will never get rid of. It's like an extra closet and holds seasonal decor as well as serving pieces for the holidays.

  • @pamelapeterson2987

    Love the space....although small, it doesn't feel that way. When you live in a small home, having an outdoor space is EVERYTHING. We do most of our entertaining outside. I love the bathroom that you did. The sleeping space is a little bit too "cozy" for me as I love to sleep with my windows open and fresh air, but aside from that, I could definitely move in and feel right at home.Also, the quote by Mary Oliver that you have framed is one of my favorites and the only quote I also have displayed in my home.

    I love the sleeping nook! When we all shifted to work from home, I switched my tiny home office (where I used to work from home once a month or so) to my bedroom and moved my bedroom into the home office space, which basically only is large enough for my bed and one table. Works very well, and it's so cozy.

This home is beautiful, we are also building ours inside and out from facebook marketplace etc finds, what a wonderful age we live in where we can furnish a home for nothing/next to nothing and it can look lovely and bring joy and peace ...

    I love what you did with your space. Gave yourself more “living” room and a cozy sleeping nook. We’re only in our beds for 8 hours a night or day according to your shift. I love the fact that your bed is put away behind your kitchen. You could even put a room divider up for company. Not that that matters. I saw one at Hobby Lobby that I was thinking about getting. I’m hopefully moving into a 700 square foot apartment by December first and have been arranging my furniture in my sleep lol! Ty for sharing your home. Truly unique and beautiful. 💫
