WOW
Have you ever seen a dilapidated house transformed into a dream home? Well, you’re about to.
This determined young woman took a rundown property and turned it into a stunning sanctuary. The house was falling apart, filled with garbage, and in desperate need of some serious TLC.
Even with all that going on, instead of being daunted she saw potential and spent 2 years pouring her heart into this incredible project. The results are absolutely jaw-dropping.
She began by clearing out all the junk, repurposing what she could, and tossing the rest. What’s truly impressive is how she kept costs low.
She crafted every piece of decor with her own hands using found and natural objects. Talk about resourcefulness!
She didn't just slap some paint on the walls- she meticulously designed each space to exude a calming charm. She achieved this by using biophilic design to bring natural elements indoors and create a soothing environment.
Her renovation was about creating a functional, beautiful space filled with natural beauty. She updated the kitchen, bathrooms, living areas, and outdoor spaces, all while preserving the house’s original charm.
Each room was thoughtfully designed to blend the old with the new, creating a unique and inviting atmosphere. Despite facing budget constraints and unexpected structural issues, she found innovative, cost-effective solutions instead of giving up.
After two years of hard work, the transformation was complete. The old house was reborn as a beautiful, modern home, showcasing her creativity, determination, and skill.
This project is a stunning example of how thoughtful, sustainable renovation can create homes that are functional, full of history, and connected to nature.
Within just 2 weeks, a timelapse video of the abandoned junk house being turned into a small sanctuary has already received over 32 million views.

You might think cats and dogs are natural enemies, but let me tell you about Oakley and Binx Dyer from Edmond, Oklahoma. These two, a dog and a cat, have an extraordinary friendship that defies the usual stereotypes.
One evening, Oakley, a 6-year-old Havanese, was outside for a bathroom break when she was suddenly ambushed by two coyotes. It seemed like a dire situation until Binx, the family's black cat, sprang into action.
Binx, with a protective instinct, confronted the coyotes and saved Oakley from what could have been a tragic fate. "It was the craziest thing ever," said Lane Dyer, the owner, speaking to KFOR News with a mix of awe and gratitude.
Binx wasn't always part of the Dyer family; she was a stray who chose them as her own. Despite being a lot smaller than the coyotes, Binx's bond with Oakley drove her to act heroically.
Unfortunately, Oakley was badly hurt in the attack and was bleeding heavily. It was a race against time to get her to Neel Veterinary Hospital, where the situation looked grim.
There was a real chance she could lose her leg, but Oakley proved to be a fighter. With love and care, she made a full recovery, much to the relief of the Dyer family.
The Dyers checked their security cameras and were amazed to see the footage of Binx fearlessly charging at the coyotes, a David and Goliath moment right in their backyard.
"It was inspiring to see our little outdoor cat just jump at two coyotes that were attacking this little dog who she loves and run them off," Lane shared.
It seems as though Lane isn’t alone in that thought, either. The video of their encounter has already reached over 1.4 million views and earned Binx endless amounts of well-deserved praise.
