A single parent to a young son, she took it a step further by buying her grandparents\u2019 ranch-style house, which was her mother\u2019s childhood home. The house, in Pittsburgh, held sweet memories, but she wasn\u2019t attached in the least to the actual interiors. Dark and dated, with a small kitchen, it was in dire need of a refresh.<\/p>\n<p>Kelly Jo\u2019s idea was to move the tiny kitchen into the roomy and light-filled sunroom, an addition that her grandparents had put in decades after the home was constructed. Her remodeling budget of $80,000 was not a small sum but challenging nonetheless when you factor in the other projects (turning the old kitchen into a home office, opening up the entryway, furnishing the kitchen, dining, and living areas) that would have to be undertaken in order to transform the interiors into a bright, warm, minimalist space.<\/p>\n<p>Enter Leanne and Steve Ford. In episode 4 of <em>Home Again with the Fords<\/em>, a new HGTV series that follows the sister-brother team as they help redesign the homes of people moving back to their hometown of Pittsburgh, Kelly Jo gets her dream kitchen, thanks to clever hacks and smart, budget-minded decisions.<\/p>\n<p>Mari kita buat lawatan.<\/p>\n<p>Photography by Erin Kelly, courtesy of Leanne Ford Interiors.
