First of all, I forgot to post this baroque bathroom pic yetserday: Pretty no? It has an accent wall like Iloveupstate suggested! Last night I added about 10 shades of gray to my already absurdly large collection of BM sample pots. But I may return nine of them because I fell in love with the […]

I can’t possibly write a real post today, my head is swimming with random ideas and bits of information on wall treatments and how I can get a metallic-ish, brocade-ish, baroque-ish feel in the powder room. So here’s a little pictoral peak inside the madness: (image from Decor8 archives) from Brocade Home Farrow & Ball […]

…that may never come. I’m having a terrible time picking a date when our small handful of close friends will be available. So instead, we decided to have a few people who are around this holiday weekend over for a small gathering this Sunday and schedule a bigger to-do for the last week in September […]

The weekend started with a trip to Lowes Friday Night to look for a pedestal sink. Jeff decided to head out to the garden section (which is outdoors) to look for a large planter. Spotting one he liked on the shelf above his head, he tilted it towards him to look inside. Big mistake! Jeff […]

Ok, I have my camera cord! So here’s the result of this weekend’s progress..or lack therof. But I DO have a semi-decent excuse for my lack of productivity, Saturday was my grandma’s 85 b’day party over in Stroudsburg PA, so I only really had one day to work on the house.  Here’s my Grandma Eunice, […]

As predicted, I made almost NO progress this weekend. Well I did paint the fireplace white, but I brought my ipod cable instead of my camera cable to work today, so no after pics until tomorrow.. No weekend would be complete without a trip to target of course, and while there I found these silver […]

Here’s where my mind has been the past few days…follow if you dare! (Or just want to get really dizzy.) Battle of the Blinds I don’t know if you remember that I decided I wanted roller shades as undertreatments in the living room because they have a smaller profile when in the “up” state. Well […]

Even though I spent ALL day yesterday looking for wallpaper, I decided to go with Liz‘s fab idea of stenciling instead because, as Alana pointed out, wallpapering a small bathroom is HARD! So even though my search was for naught, I thought I’d share some of the amazing eye candy I turned up from euro […]
