Meet the Jones

Welcome to Jonesville! I'm Elizabeth and he's Auston - and together we are the Jones part of Jonesville. 99% of the time I'm the one writing the posts and taking the pictures, even though Auston is always willing to help. We met at the end of 2012 and got married in 2016. We bought our first house for a steal - and when I say steal, I mean it was so nasty we had to live with my parents for 4 months before we could move in.

Now we live here and fix it up a little at a time. Our motto is "if we can do it on a budget, you can too." We don't have any design or construction experience, but we do 98% of it all by ourselves. We want to learn how to do things now so when we move into our forever home, we can make it the home of our dreams.

So welcome to out little slice of the web 'burbs, we hope you enjoy our journey and stick around to see where we're headed. You guys are the best and get in touch with us if you want to talk to us more.

See our first house's on move in day and the projects so far.
