A blast from the past

My House was made in 1920s but my House became Home once I moved in 2021. A 100 years old Home is being restored By using materials from the Habitat For Humanity and Materials that are not needed are donated to Habitat For Humanity. We Tried to preserve The beautiful oak woodwork while making home energy efficient. We tried to preserve the original red brick fireplace while getting energy efficient fireplace. We tried to preserve original wooden bookshelf's around fireplace by modifying shelfs from the Habitat For Humanity. I did my part of selecting color of my room and tastefully decorating it. My toys are a blast from the past mixed with modern technology. Thank you Habitat For Humanity for helping us preserve the history and use modern technology to become even more energy efficient.
