Ep 9. Trash To Treasure
- July 6, 2020
In this episode of Maine Cabin Masters, the team takes on a daunting challenge as they attempt to turn trash into treasure. The owner of the cabin, Mary, has inherited the property from her father, who was an avid collector of vintage and antique items. The cabin is cluttered with his collections, and it's up to the team to make sense of it all and transform the space into a functional and beautiful getaway.
The crew is excited to take on this unique project but quickly realizes that it's going to be harder than they thought. The cabin is filled with antique furniture, vintage appliances, and all sorts of knick-knacks that have been stored away for decades. The team must work together to sort through the clutter, salvage what they can, and get rid of the rest.
As they work, they discover some hidden gems in the cabin. There are a few pieces of antique furniture that are still in good condition, and the team decides to repurpose them to fit the new design scheme. They also find some vintage appliances that could still be used with a little bit of love and care.
After clearing out the clutter, the team gets to work on the design. They decide to go with a rustic theme to match the cabin's woodsy setting. They salvage some old barn wood to create a feature wall and add some rustic charm to the space. They also create custom-built furniture pieces that incorporate some of the antique items they salvaged.
To add some modern conveniences to the cabin, the team installs new plumbing and electrical systems. They also renovate the bathroom, adding a new bathtub and shower. The result is a beautiful, functional, and cozy cabin that still retains some of the original vintage charm.
Throughout the episode, the team faces some challenges, but they always keep their sense of humor and camaraderie. They joke around with each other, share memories of their own childhood cabins, and work together to find creative solutions to unexpected problems.
As always, the Maine Cabin Masters put their hearts and souls into the project, and the results speak for themselves. The cabin is transformed from a cluttered mess into a beautiful, functional, and inviting space that Mary can enjoy for years to come.
Overall, this episode of Maine Cabin Masters is a heartwarming and entertaining look at the art of turning trash into treasure. It shows how the right mix of creativity, hard work, and a little bit of humor can transform even the most cluttered and disorganized cabin into a beautiful and functional space.
