About Us

Who we are

At The Avery Cottage, we blend our love for family, faith, and DIY projects to renovate old homes into cozy, pet-friendly spaces that foster warmth and create lasting memories.

Our story

We are a blended family with four kids of our own and often welcome foster children into our lively household. Our shared love for renovation and creative home improvement projects inspired us to start documenting our journey on Instagram, and we've been amazed by the incredible support from all of you who have followed along. Thank you for your encouragement! We hope to inspire and support you in your own DIY projects and as you navigate the journey of life.

Building Memories, One Nail at a Time: The Heart of Our Family Business

Welcome to The Avery Cottage, where every project is more than just a renovation—it's a labor of love, a blend of creativity, and a testament to the bonds that hold us together. As a family-owned business with a passion for DIY projects, we have been breathing new life into our old cottage and homes, turning them into cozy havens filled with warmth, charm, and character.

Our Story

Our journey began when we joined our families and discovered a shared passion for providing a safe and loving home to foster children, a shared love for giving new life to old homes, and a dream to make a difference in our community. Over time that community has grown to include you. We believe that every house has a story to tell, and it’s our mission to uncover it, one renovation at a time. But it’s not just about the projects; it’s about the people—and the pets—we design for and do these projects with. As a family with both children and animals, we understand the importance of creating spaces that are safe, welcoming, and full of love.

Family First, Always

In our business, family is at the core of everything we do. Whether it’s tackling a big renovation project together, sharing meals in between work, or spending time with our furry friends, we know that the most important things in life are the people (and pets) we share it with. Our projects are a reflection of this belief, designed with both functionality and family-friendly features in mind.

A Home for Everyone

With a heart for foster care, we’re passionate about creating homes that are more than just a place to live—they’re a place to grow, to laugh, and to make lasting memories. We know that a house becomes a home when it’s filled with love, laughter, and a sense of belonging, and we strive to bring that feeling into every renovation we undertake.

DIY with a Purpose

We love the satisfaction that comes from rolling up our sleeves and getting to work on a DIY project. There’s something special about taking a hands-on approach and seeing the transformation unfold before our eyes. Whether it’s restoring an old fireplace, creating custom woodwork, or designing a kid-friendly space, each project is a chance to put our skills to the test and create something unique and beautiful.

Guided by Faith

Our faith is the foundation of our business, guiding us in everything we do. We believe that our talents and passions are gifts to be shared, and we’re committed to using them to bless others. Whether we’re working on outdoor projects or on our 1930’s family cottage, our goal is to honor God through our work and to create spaces that reflect His love and grace.

Let’s Build Together

Whether you’re looking to renovate an old cottage, add a special touch to your home, or create a family-friendly space, we’re here to help you make it happen. At The Avery Cottage, we don’t just renovate houses—our goal is to create homes that our children (and maybe someday grandchildren) can build memories in. We’d love to be a part of your family’s journey.

Come join us in creating something beautiful, one project at a time!
