Because I Promised

July 24, 2013 | 8 Comments

I am leaving for the She Speaks conference (read a little about last year’s conference here and here)  later this afternoon, and I should be packing, and sorting, and making lists, and fixing large freezer meals for my husband, but instead, I am working on a blogpost….my 200th!

Kind of funny that last year as I was getting ready for the conference, our bathroom remodels were almost finished, and today I am finally going to show pics of the second bathroom. I promised I would show them, and I am sure that you could care less, but this has been eating at me, so today I am going to just DO it. Know what I mean?

We built our house years ago before people started building bathrooms bigger than some bedrooms. There were times in the past that I wished ours were bigger, but now I like the fact that I can swoop in and clean them in no time. I have other things I would rather do!

This bathroom is very narrow and pretty small, so I had trouble getting good pics without showing my reflection in the mirror. Trust me, you don’t want to see me in my baggy t-shirt and volleyball shorts that the coach gave me when the team got new uniforms. A long time ago.

This bath is off our bedroom, so I used the same curtains to tie the two rooms together. I saw similar ones in an Ethan Allen showroom and was able to locate the same fabric online and whipped them up myself. Easy.

I had these pictures framed for my hubs a few years ago for his birthday. They are of his great-grandma, grandpa and uncles. Janice at my favorite paint store cut the mats for me, Pottery Barn style. I love the way they look and Brad loves the sentimental factor.

The chandy was moved from another room in the house and the light fixture is Restoration Hardware.

I forgot to take a picture of the glass shower door, but afterall, it is just a glass shower door.

All the dust and dirt and stress is just a memory now, and we are happy with how this little bath turned out.

Wishing you all a beautiful July day!

    Beautiful!!
    The curtains, the shades, the chandy, and the fixture are all fabulous. And…I love the dark stained cabinet too. I bet it is a joy to use your lovely bath.

    You're going to She Speaks again!! Yay for you!!

    My fingers are crossed that someday I'll be able to attend a helpful conference and meet all kinds of wonderful people like you in person. Have a ball! I know you will!

    Susan,
    The problem with a bigger bathroom is that there is way more to clean and cleaning bathrooms just isn't fun!
    Love those curtains

    Hi Susan! Have a wonderful time at your conference! I hope you learn a lot and make some new friends to boot.

    I love seeing people's houses, and your is no exception. Isn't it amazing what a difference a year makes?? I really love your sweet gift of the matted pictures for your husband. It's so good to remember our loved ones!
