Reason number 248036 why I not-so-secretly want to Reason number 248036 why I not-so-secretly want to live in the project house ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒธ I'm in BIG trouble once the peonies start to bloom!
I never thought I would miss the chaos of trying t I never thought I would miss the chaos of trying to get two babies dressed and into the car every time we had to go somewhere...but I kinda do. ๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ™ƒ What's one thing you previously complained about but now find yourself missing during this quarantine?
My little ballerinas...without a care in the world My little ballerinas...without a care in the world. ๐Ÿ’— How are you all feeling after today's announcement from the president?
When I start to feel overwhelmed by the amount of When I start to feel overwhelmed by the amount of projects we still have to finish (so many!)...or all the major purchases I still have to make (๐Ÿ’ธ๐Ÿ’ธ๐Ÿ’ธ)...or what will happen to the real estate market given the current state of events...or the most obvious of concerns (the dreaded C-word) โ€” I venture over to the almost finished master bathroom and just stare. ๐Ÿ–ค๐Ÿ–ค๐Ÿ–ค The oh-so-talented @roomfortuesday challenged us to share a happy corner of our homes โ€“ well this is mine. What's yours?
We uncovered the floors at the house and I cannot We uncovered the floors at the house and I cannot believe we are so so close to being finished! I better start sourcing furniture if I want to stage this place in time! P.S. Can you spot the new exterior color and deck through the windows? ๐Ÿ˜ฎ P.S.S. Yes I know a lot is happening in the world right now but I'm choosing to redirect my energy to more productive things instead of breaking my brain trying to figure out this madness.
We collected flowers and rocks and sticks and swun We collected flowers and rocks and sticks and swung on swings and dug in dirt with our bare hands and honestly it was just what the doctor ordered. ๐Ÿ’—
I wish I could say I see the light at the end of t I wish I could say I see the light at the end of the renovation tunnel but we've hit round 3 (or is it 4 now?) of sickness in our house so everything is at a complete standstill...unless you count the ๐Ÿ’ธ๐Ÿ’ธ๐Ÿ’ธ I've been spending online ordering ALL THE THINGS. Side note: why are there so many things?! โ€ขโ€ขโ€ข But in case you were wondering...I am definitely team "Light Fixtures in the Bedroom." โ˜บ๏ธ I understand that some may prefer a fan to help cool a room. If you're renovating for yourself and a fan is an absolute necessity for your lifestyle then by all means put the fan up. BUT if you're looking to market a home for sale (and especially if you plan to stage the house) then go for the beautiful light fixture. No buyer has ever walked into a room and said "my goodness what a gorgeous fan!" but it's not uncommon to hear "look at that beautiful chandelier โ€“ such a statement!" and we all know first impressions are important in real estate. โ€ขโ€ขโ€ข Psychologists say that we make up our mind about a person within the first fifteen seconds of meeting them and I think the same is true of a house. So yes...when selling go for what looks best โ€“ at least that's my rationale and I'm sticking to it. ๐Ÿ˜† Besides...it's a very easy change if someone is a diehard fan fan...see what I did there??? โ€ขโ€ขโ€ข P.S. We've been cooped up in the house for far too long. โ€ขโ€ขโ€ข P.S.S. The end vote was 50|50 in my stories.
In case the nonstop sneaks peeks on Insta stories In case the nonstop sneaks peeks on Insta stories weren't enough of an indication: I am SO FREAKING EXCITED about the master bathroom transformation. This space is really coming along...in fact it's so far along that I better hurry up and start blogging the process while it's still relevant. So today on the blog I'm sharing a really detailed post. There's an extensive "before" tour + my design plan for the space + I talk about which changes I would've made in an alternative fantasy world where budgets and structural limitations don't exist. ๐Ÿ˜† Oh and you finally get to see that beautiful over-the-tub chandelier I've been going on about. It's fun and it's educational and I hope you'll check it out. Link in bio.
It's taking me 2 weeks to finish the master bathro It's taking me 2 weeks to finish the master bathroom design plan post...and I wish I could blame the chaos that is my life right now but I'm basically writing a novel โ€“ so brace yourselves. ๐Ÿ˜† Apparently I have a lot of feelings about bathroom renovations โ€“ and I'm not afraid to share them. ๐Ÿ˜œ In the meantime here's a reminder of the beautiful tiled floors...and a quick comparison to the "before" to help me keep going.
Team brass or team chrome? Obviously I love both โ€“ especially when used together. ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿผ Styling these moodboards is like therapy for me and when you're renovating an entire house in a matter of months (with babies!) โ€“ therapy may not be such a bad idea. ๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ™ƒ Did you see the latest post on the blog yet? It's all about how I'm designing the guest bathroom to be classic but full of personality...appealing to the masses but still unique...basically taking on the impossible. Let me know what you thought!
