Stranded on Purpose – Ocracoke Island, North Carolina

June 18, 2014

Oh my goodness, how fun is this?! Stranded on Purpose, an Ocracoke Island, North Carolina beach house, was completely renovated from top to bottom by Betsy and her husband Chris…without spending thousands of dollars on designer furniture and decor! Betsy spent a lot of time on Pinterest looking for ideas, scoured Craiglist for deals, as well as Buy/Sell/Trade groups on Facebook. And of course finding the perfect shade of paint never hurts! Love the creative details like the vintage badminton rackets and life rings on the walls and the drool worthy painted runner on the stairs (painted Behr’s Jamaica Bay)! You guys have to head on over to Betsy’s blog, she recorded the entire remodel process and it’s so inspiring–you won’t even recognize the before pics! And head here for rental info (woohoo!) and tons more photos!

    I have to ask, would you have put that granite with that beautiful backsplash?
