Bathroom is Done!

Aside from some small tweaks but you know how that is. A person who is obsessed with interiors is never truly "done"

We started this demo in January of 2012. You read that right. There were hurdles, money, demanding schedules, lack of motivation, pole dancing to be done. But it is finished!


This is a bad before picture but this was it when we bought the place. 

We removed the wallpaper, repainted everything and lived with it like this for a few years.


Our master bath was in bad shape so we focused on that first.

But now...


I still want to add some open shelves with baskets and pretty towels above the toilet but everything else is done-zo! Fur-downs gone, pony wall gone, new tile and paint, new lighting.

Bone inlay mirror is from Wisteria, no longer available :(

New cultured marble countertops, under mount sink (these are the only way to go, in my humble opinion)


my painting moved in here


Vintage glass towel bar, hung some art, with one lonesome decor piece on the counter :)


Vintage persian purchased on craigslist. Marble tile in herringbone pattern.


Subway tile with dark grout. My mom and I sewed the curtains. It's an ivory linen with tassel trim. The fur-downs extended over the shower and that is now gone as well. The whole room just feels bigger without those silly and completely unnecessary things. I don't understand why they were ever popular!

In other news, scott surprised me with this table from Target last week! Have you seen their new Threshold line? Of course you have, don't be silly. You know how I love rocks and agates. This was only $60!


All styled up!

Have a great week!

Look at me go, I've made a decision!

Just realizing that title sounds all election day-y. But this has nothing to do with politics. 

I found, made a decision and actually purchased something for my home! Maybe decision 2012 did have a hand in it! Sorry, that was cheesy.

I really liked the stencil I had previously picked out for our hall bath remodel but something just wasn't quite right about it.


From here.

So I decided to shop around to see if anything else tickled my fancy. I figured if I don't find anything this is a good option still.

But I found something, oh yes I did.



From here.

Its less art deco, more moroccan and bohemian. I am slowly coming into my style more and feel like this is a step in the right direction.

I did backpedal on my paint decision though.


I chose the middle but now I think i want something more blue, less green. Back to the paint store I guess. My goal is to make a decision by this weekend. We have scheduled a holiday party about 5 weeks away and even if the tile isn't done I want the walls to be. Nothing like having people over to motivate you!

Then the question is, should the stencil be white on blue, or blue on white? Oh the possibilities are endless!

White on dark...



Then there's dark on white...



 Which do you prefer?

These are all so good I'm not sure which one is my favorite! 

I'm contemplating doing something like this in our hall bath remodel. It's small-ish and has no natural light. That's a project that will have to wait a while though. After the master bath, we're taking a break from major renovations. I also need to focus on the design for our master bedroom and living room. These are the most used rooms and they're virtually untouched as of now!

Have a lovely weekend everyone! I have a few fun things planned for next week so hopefully I can get my butt in gear this weekend and make some things happen!
