I decided to make my house my own a couple years ago i would slowly make minor changes as i could afford them - this being because its basically the same as when my grandma lived in it.
Things I've done so far are
- created a fire pit
-created a flower bed and lined it with rocks
-installed a deck on the front of the house
- shrunk the garden.
-added an air conditioner
-changed the curtains
Things i'd like to do are
-install a fan in my bedroom
- paint the living room
- change the counter tops in the kitchen
- replace a few of the windows with newer windows
- finish the basement
I know the last few are fairly expensive projects so i'm saving up for them
The fan i intend to do soon then i dont have to have a stand alone fan at the end of my bed for months during the summer.
Do you make changes to a house when you move in? All at once or slowly over time? How do you make a house feel like your own?

I almost never move. I am still in process after more than twenty years, of making this place mine. Lots of the same projects and then some. I am having to save for most of them. I have most of a bathroom remodel in boxes on my back porch.
