Vancouver basement suite transformation || second-hand home, furnishing home on a budget
Hello there!
Watch along as I bust my booty getting our new apartment in Vancouver BC all set up! It was a lot of effort, but it's totally worth it to get most of our furniture second-hand. We save so much money and can afford to get a lot of our furniture on a budget when you shop second-hand.
Thanks for watching!

Thank you! We really love and appreciate it 🥰
You've done such a great job! And Billy did well on that table!

Not perfect, but we’re happy it’s not fragile anymore so William can jump on it and we don’t hold our breath.

It’s the best! Especially when you have to wait a while for it to happen 😊
It all looks amazing Becca! I love that brick, it just gives off such a great vibe. In your bedroom I think a lovely duvet cover and pillows would set it off nicely. Best of all, you have a home!!!! Fantastic.

For some reason our bedroom is the room I care the least about. Mostly probably because there’s not a lot I can do with it. It’s literally a “bed” room because our bed takes up the whole thing 😂
Love love love! especially the new dinner table and oh the nook! The bright rug is perfect too. You're so good at this!I totally lack imagination

Every time we eat a meal we’re glad we switched tables! And the coffee nook makes me very happy 🥲
Looking real cozy, a wood burner would have been nice to have in that brick area, but a coffee nook suits it too. How do you heat your living space there? Garden looks interesting as well, appears to be plenty of vegetables in it.

The garden is incredible! She has so much growing back there. And we have central heating through the whole place so hopefully nice and warm!
I love the new table and desk, they're so interesting

I kind of wanted everything to be a statement piece! Before I feel like I had everything blend in. We’re loving how it’s all turning out so far!
I love that bright rug in living room!

I do want to get him different bedding! The throw blanket is meant to be temporary. When I find the right thing I’ll snatch it up!
Lovely to see that you have started your new plant family. The ones you had in NZ were gorgeous, it must have hurt to say goodbye to them. Great to see the Salt Pig has settled in ☺

You know me well 😂 I had such a hard time saying goodbye to all our plants in NZ. Hoping to find similar ones here and also completely new ones for our new country. And I’m very happy our salt pig no longer lives in a bag shoved full of socks 🥰
That little cracked table you could stain dark It all looks nice!

Looks great, i much prefer smaller homes, so much easier to keep clean, and a lot less expensive to furnish. Interior design seems to be your thing, be great if you could do something with my hovel😅

Interior design is NOT my thing! But it is fun playing around with it. And I love smaller homes too. What you said and also you don’t have to hunt down your kids, you don’t need baby monitors, it doesn’t take you 30 minutes to walk from one end of your house to the other when you need to grab something.. the list is endless 😂
Talk about valuable life-skills. Could you please teach my wife how to furnish a house for under $3,000? :-D
@Becca.Loveless

Yep! I’ll charge about $3,000 for the course.

Billy’s job is actually starting in full force next week! He’s had a bit of on and off summer stuff but the season is about to start! We’re all excited. We’re feeling very settled now and life feels incredible again 🧡 We’re really liking Vancouver! I just posted a differences video. Both are pretty amazing places but there’s still more to learn about here for us I think.
Looks fantastic Becca and Billy. Maybe a piece of steel going across the epoxied gaps on the underside of the table will help brace it from cracking further. I love that table Check if there are any Man sheds in your area, carving, woodworking groups or carpentry shops who could advise you. Well done.

Billy wishes we had a garage or shed that he could do wood working in. Maybe one day 🥲

Maybe one of those cyclone restst tents that has detachable flaps and the mesh to keep the bugs out. XCross reinforcements at the windows. Good for when it's hot and also showers,, safe place for the children to play extends your living space.
I love how you made the material road into a box and put stuff in it. Cute little money plant! I love the before, and Afters! You sure have a talent in interior design! I love the broken glasses. So cute! Love your opera voice when you said rug and mattress. the rug looks so cute! It matches the brick wall. Great job Becca and Billy!

That little farm kit comes like that! It’s pretty cool. We got it free from a friend of a friend. And thanks 🥰 I just grab whatever is available and hope it all looks good together 😂
