Transform OUR Home with Love
Renovating our family home, whilst living in the garden!
Hi, I’m Gemma – wife, mum of three, DIY enthusiast, and accidental cabin dweller.
In 2022, my husband and I decided to take on the ultimate challenge: renovate our forever home from the ground up. The twist? We did it with three kids in tow — while living in a cabin in our garden.
Yep. No kitchen. No proper heating. No space.
Just a lot of love, chaos, and power tools.
Why This Blog?
I created From Cabin to Home to document the madness, share what we learned (often the hard way), and inspire other families to take on DIY projects — even when life’s a bit messy.
Whether you’re:
- Renovating on a budget
- Wondering how to survive a build with kids around
- Looking for practical, beautiful DIY solutions
…you’re in the right place.
