Finally, the Complete Renovation Shopping List – EVERYTHING I used! (part 1)

Hi Everyone,

Happy March!

Finally, I have gotten together a complete renovation shopping list.

It’s now all in one place, but not all on one page. However, this post is ground zero that links to all of the other posts and pages.

 

What’s included in the complete renovation shopping list?

 

Well, everything I used for my recent renovation, and also some other items I’m including, because:

  • They are on my wish list. In other words, I don’t have the item yet, but am considering it.
  • A few items are alternative products. Most of my furnishings, for example, are vintage or discontinued and effectively are one-of-a-kind. However, as much as possible, I included similar items.
  • The majority of items I purchased are “widgetable.” (Now, that’s a word!) That means that I got them online from a source that’s part of the affiliate network. Thus, you will find the items in a large shopping widget.

To make things a bit easier, I have divided my home into four areas.

 

Two are upstairs, and two are downstairs.

Upstairs

Kitchen/Entry

Living Room/Den.  (2nd bedroom)

 

Primary bathroom lower entrance architectural details

Downstairs

Bathroom/halls/closets

Primary Bedroom

The downstairs will be part 2 coming up on Tuesday.

 

Some notes regarding the renovation shopping list:

 

Because I have divided the house into sections, there will be some repetition with some of the mouldings, door knobs, etc.
The upstairs bathroom has not been touched except for the new Huntingdon sconces by Visual Comfort.

 

Before you check out the complete renovation shopping list, I promised an answer to a question I asked in this weekend’s HOT SALES email.

 

If you’ve opted out of that email, of course, you didn’t see it.

 

The question is: Do you see what’s missing?

Yes, the microwave is no longer sitting on the counter!

So, where is it?

It’s in the kitchen pantry where it’s supposed to be.

Cale and Me 2.7.2026

When my son Cale was here for my birthday, the day before, we remeasured very carefully and realized that the opening was only 1/8″ too small.* So, Cale purchased a planer and got to work.

*The measurements of the microwave didn’t include the 3/8″ protrusions on each side.

So cute with the pencil behind his ear.

He did a great job, too!

What I didn’t know was that there was going to be a two-inch piece of wood on the interior of the cabinet. I do see why one inch is necessary. It’s so that anything inside clears the hinges when it slides out. But they could’ve given me another two inches inside, and then I could’ve done a slightly larger microwave.

Okay, please check out the first two pages of the renovation shopping lists filled with everything upstairs.

 

And the kitchen and entry are here.

The living room and den are here. 

 

It was fun reliving everything again via putting together this renovation shopping list. Well, mostly fun! haha

xo,
