updates

I wanted to thank everyone who has been commenting on our house renovations. It's really been helpful hearing your ideas and opinions! I think for now, we've decided to keep our desk the color it is (mainly because James is too busy to do it and I don't think I'd be successful) and it's growing on me as is.

I moved on of our kitchen parson chairs for the desk chair for now and I quite like it. I'll post a pic once we're done loading the shelves.

Now for the master bath fixer upper project. James and I have disagreed a TON this weekend to the point where we have been to Lowes THREE times and bought nothing :) I've finally decided that if he wants to make extra work for himself then who I am to save him the time. So he's we've decided to pull up the tile in the tub/toilet area and pick one tile to go in the sink area as well so it all matches. I've been pinteresting a lot of pins about cheap fixes to upscale the area. I think we'll go up the tub face with the tile to make the tub look more "built in". We'll also add floating shelves to the top of the toilet area and baskets for towels in the empty area. I would like to get a longer WHITE shower curtain (or regular curtain) to make the room look bigger.

Oh and I loved your ideas of pocket door, but unfortunately it's not possible for the area due to closets on both sides. I thought about sliding doors that you mount on the outside, but then it would block the light switch..... so for now the knee hitting door has to stay.

So stay tuned!

We also saw some COOL tile that looks like wood floors that I LOVED but it's way too pricey for a home we're going to sell soon, but how neat!
