Two projects this month. One is just more of the same... the never-ending radiant barrier install. But this month I found a much better deal on the stuff than I'd been getting in the past. I ordered 1,000 square feet of the stuff from Radiant Guard. [Read More] 

It's been a busy few weeks around here, so I have a lot to catch up on! We celebrated our 27th anniversary the week before Christmas. It turned out that we had a church choir rehearsal/party that night, so we went out to eat before the party. I ga [Read More] 

It's been a long time coming, but we now have mirrors in our master bathroom! We had to special order the one for over my sink/vanity area, but it finally arrived. DH made frames for them to match the frames on the cabinet doors... Here is DH's mirr [Read More] 

So there is still some touch up work to do and more art to hang … but … here she blows.

This is possible master bath look #3 first two of course are the fixtures and floor, then the wall/tile colors. I didn't put an accent color in this mix. It will be paired with the brushed nickle faucets, maybe my accent color will just be the nickle [Read More] 

I had previously posted that I wanted to go with the Kohler Memoirs collection in strongsandbar/strong for our tub, toilet and sinks. Figuring that out was only half the battle... I'm trying to figure out exactly what I want to do in that room. I've [Read More] 

This is the second possible decor scheme for the master bath. I had originally thought of possibly using the "rootbeer" colored iridescent oval glass tiles but upon further inspection of them I thought that was probably a bit much with the tan fixtur [Read More]

I dashed home from work to meet Levi the plumber and we installed the toilet and tub upstairs. This is very exciting because a) it means I can finish demo downstairs; b) it means I have a clean bathroom; c) it means my tub actually works and kicks a [Read More] 

however, sheetrock is a sign of progress…..I totally surprised the delivery guy from Hammond, buy helping him unload the first 35 pieces (2 at a time!). Little did he know I was numb enough to lug the sheetrock upstairs and hang it by myself. [Read More] 

The stairs were looking great when we got to the house, but there was a guy working on staining them and we couldn't go upstairs! I really wanted to see the master bathroom and the sewing studio, where I think they may have installed the cabinets alr [Read More]

Yesterday's pictures of the master bathroom just didn't do it justice. The lovely bright lemon-yellow tilework just doesn't show to its full advantage. I'm going to have to try to take better pictures of it. Last night we had our first non-family [Read More] 

The master bathroom just might be my favorite room in the house. From the beginning I had a vision of it looking like a spa, with lots of cool blue and green tones, so that was where the majority of the inspiration came from. However, with a 20x40 to [Read More] 

One of our cabinet doors fell off in the master bathroom. It is fixable, but I would love to use it as an excuse to redecorate and revive the bathroom (especially after seeing those Delta faucets and that shower!!). I have been gathering bathroom ide [Read More]
