Big Canoe Mountain Condo gets a breath of fresh air!


This condominium is located inside the gates of Big Canoe Community. Big Canoe is a private community in the north Georgia mountains, about an hour north of Atlanta. Golf, lake beach, tennis, rockslide, boating, fishing, hiking, Jeep trail...lots of fun for adults and children.

The "S-family" has owned this condo and rented it out for the past 20 years. Many, many wonderful memories have been made here. And with all those memories, much wear and tear on the condo & furniture. It was time for a makeover!

Upgrades included: 
  • Kitchen Updates: cabinets, countertops, backsplash, sink, faucet, appliances, barstools, lighting, dishes/utensils/pots/pans
  • Living Room: furniture, lighting, rug, art & accessories
  • Bathroom: cabinets, countertops, sink, faucet, lighting, mirror, towel hooks/caddies, bath towels
  • Bedrooms: bedding, curtains & accessories
  • Foyer: bench
Mrs. S did a great job on kitchen selections and furniture. I assisted by doing most of the brick & mortar shopping and online shopping for bedding, art, accessories and lighting.

Whenever I am shopping for myself or for a client, I always look for deals.
Do you know about Bargin Hunt store?? We scored some serious deals here on bedding, accessories, & kitchen supplies. 
From what I understand, Bargin Hunt has last season's products from stores like Target, Costco, Best Buy... The prices are already marked down and continue to be discounted depending on how long they are in the store. The price tag has a date. After the product has been in the store a while, it is marked down an additional 10%-90%. 
For example, I found new-in-the-package twin comforters originally from Target for 80% off the original price. There are plans for a bunkbed room in the condo so we purchased eight comforters that day! The S-family grandkids will love cousin time in the bunk room.

FOYER BENCH
Mrs. S made a simple bench by staining a piece of wood and making legs out of plumbing pipes.



Bench is attached to the wall using L-brackets

After the renovations & updates, the condo is now clean and fresh. It is a relaxing place to stay. 
But, people don't go to Big Canoe to hang out inside. It is the beautiful mountains, trails and fresh air that draw you outside
Unplug. Breathe. Be Still.
