Well more than just my blog name has changed in the past 1
& ½ years! I’m now a Stay at home mother of three children…Baby William was
born in July of 1012. Then a month later in August we bought our first home.
Very exciting times but stressful and chaotic too!
One of the beautiful joys of home ownership and raising three
children is no longer having money. Okay maybe I’m exaggerating but I definitely
don’t enough money to decorate my home with the pottery barn and Pier one magazines
that I’d like to. So that’s where Pinterest comes into play. Thousands of pins
filled with inspiration just waiting for me to try!
One of our first big projects was the guest bathroom. Its
kind of small and it was overpowered by dark wood, yellow tile, and a red laminate
counter top…all original to the house! I loved the look of this bathroom (picture below) I found while on Pinterest: http://pinterest.com/pin/179018153910148751/
I loved how the white stood out and looked so clean next
to the cool blue. So we painted the walls with a beautiful blue, put in a
smaller white vanity (on sale for $69 at Lowes), and put down laminate peel
& stick tiles. In total we spent about $100…and it looks like a whole new
space.
Old Bathroom (the red counter peeking out in the corner)
Fresh and clean!
I Love It! And for just $100...it makes me love it even more.
