Never Ending Cabinets

Just finished the top coat on the insides of the top cabinets. What a pain! I'm feeling really grateful that we'll NEVER do that again. Soon as it dries I can do a coat of yellow on the outside. Eeeeeh!

First coat of COLOR!

Getting There

You guys, this is miserable!

And a bowl of brackets, hinges, and handles soon to be resurrected in an orangey mango color (hopefully!)

Cabinets!

My first real workday on the house and my project is to give these old, built in place from plywood, cabinets some new life. So far I've got all the doors off and I'm waiting for Ben to quit sanding so I can clean them up and prime them. I'm really excited to give them some spunk.

(Choosing to focus on this project I have some control over and not the neighbor's 15,000 plumbing repair happening across the street!!)

Beautiful Things

I'm so excited to be adding these lovelies to our bathroom soon. It is shaping up to be the most beautiful room in our house!

Gorgeous, gorgeous 1" hex tiles. We're going with grey grout to match our paint color (and hopefully hide some dirt!) I knew I wanted to do hex tile in our bathroom, and when I found this gorgeous carrara marble I fell head over heels in love!

Our tub's feet will be white and the faucet we chose is slightly different, but you get the idea.

We'll be adding a vessel sink to this antique wash stand I found on craigslist. We saw something similar in a house we looked at just before we bought this one and it was so beautiful. I knew we had to try to recreate it.

Can't wait to share the finished product!
