Front Bathroom

We've got the tile laid. The cabinet is half ass painted. We've repainted one of the light fixtures and still have one more to do. We bought a cheap can of silver spray paint from Dollar General to repaint them. Of course they were just cheap builder brass fixtures. I'm not putting a lot of money into this house when we are NOT going to get it back.
We still have to replace the counter top. There's a place downtown that is Surplus something. I think we're going to check it out next weekend to see what they have. It probably won't cost us around $40 or so to replace it. Not too bad. It's a small cabinet.

So anyway. Here's a couple of pictures. Now warning, this bathroom is still disaster area. We've got more to do and a lot to clean up before it's finished.

Laying the tile. The teal was the color of the bathroom. K blames me, I blame him. It's gone now. :)

New paint. 

Better paint picture. 

Finished tile. Still waiting on quarter round at this point. It's now installed.

Cabinet is almost completely white now. I still have the doors to do.

House Projects

The big list is slowly dwindling down. Now here comes the short list. AKA the money list. This is the list that is going to cost us. It's the small things that we have to buy. ie: New bedding for the guest room since my so called best friend ruined my brand new bedding and never paid me for it or replaced it. Yeah, bitter much. We have to buy blinds for 2 windows. Possibly 3 since the the blinds in the dining room are broke. Cheap shit. :( I've already purchased the shower curtain for the front bath but I dont have rugs or towels to basically stage the room.

Trust me, the list goes on. Now can someone tell me where that money tree is because I'm going to desperately need it in the next month or so.

Master Bath

Well, we finally did it. The master bath is complete. It looks like a totally different room. I'm so happy!

At the time of the pics, we still had a few things to touch up. Obviously this is one. The cabinet is now painted.


This mirror is temporary. Ours of course, shattered when we were taking it down. We still have to get a new one and we want to frame it out.

New tile. I absolutely LOVE it!!



Shelf my dad built for us. There is NO storage in this house. I hate it. Now I am having issues finding some sort of basket or canvas storage to put on the shelves. They aren't but 6" deep.

What do you think?!?! We LOVE it! The front bath is now under construction. It's already been painted and the floor ripped up. Tile will go down one day this week. I'll make a new post and keep you updated on that one.

Shamelessly Stolen

I so stole this picture from Mandy. :)

The set up is like my laundry room. If it wasn't in the hall way I would take the doors off and set it up like this. But....I can still look into building the shelf above it and repainting the room. We already have built in shelves above it that need sprucing up.

Thanks for the idea Mandy! ♥

Picture

It's a iPhone pic so not the greatest but my camera is in the truck and I dont want to go get it. :P

On my comp screen, it's almost true to life. The colors. It really doesnt match but as long as it doesnt *clash* I guess I'm OK with it. With all the extra shit we have to do to this house before we sell I really dont want to repaint this damn room.

If any D&R girls see this, the color on the bedding is almost a silver mist (i think thats the color) Just a slight greenish tint depending on the light.

*sigh* Oh well, I love it and it's staying.

Now, curtains. :D

PS~Please don't look at my furry ass dog. He's getting a hair cut next week. I just bathed him so he's all fluffified. :D

I'm on the prowl again

We have to have new bedding for our bed. The down comforter is just too damn hot right now. Why it's bothering us now and not for the past summers I'll never know. But it is.

I've found these:
OPTION #1

OPTION #2

OPTION #3

What do we think of this?

I'm 900% sure I will not be able to convince my hubby to buy the first comforter set I posted. I love it but he thinks all paisley is grandmaw-ish. So what about this one?

PS-This one looks thin which is really what I want since we burn up in the summer.

PSS- Remember that my walls in my hallway are chocolate brown (for those of you that actually know my house) :D

I need decor help

I found this bedding (which my husband is going to HATE)
and this is my bedroom



Cherry bed, blue walls. What do you think? HELP?!? I suck at this! :D

New Furniture

Finally!! After 10 years of hand me down couches, we finally bought a new sectional. We're in love.

Yes, a sectional eats my small ass living room BUT...it has a removable wedge that when removed doesnt look like a sectional is missing a piece. It's a couch and love seat with a wedge.

We have room for everyone to sit now and when we get ready to sell, just remove the wedge for more room. :D

PERFECT!!
