Not So Big Remodeling: Tailoring Your Home for the Way You Really Live

A Message from Sarah:
Not So Big Remodeling is a book that readers have been requesting for a long time—ever since the release of my first book back in 1998, in fact. Countless people have asked me things like, "We love your books, but do we have to start over and build new, or can we make our existing house not so big?" and "Can we implement any of the not so big concepts if we only have a small amount of money to spend?" The answer is an unequivocal "Yes." With a little guidance, it's possible to stay put and to remodel your existing house in a not so big way, incrementally, as time and money allow.
