Making Progress?

When we moved in we had great plans for all the DIY work we would do to our house... that all stopped after about... Day 1. We painted the master bedroom, closet & bath before we moved in. Looking back, I would have painted the entire house before moving in. Ahh, hindsight, it's 20/20.

We have painted the guest bedroom.... but I let Andy pick the color which he promised he'd repaint if I didn't like it. Well I didn't love it and it's still not repainted.

We did get the decks stained finalllyyyy... but I feel like we've been at a stand still on making our house home. I mean, we haven't put a single nail in the wall.

So this week started our master bath overhaul. To make a long story short - we found a huge hole in the master shower the day we moved in. And it's one of those single piece units that they put in when the house is going up. The hole was huge and patching it wasn't a good idea. After a horrible experience with Bath Fitters we hung a shower curtain and never looked at it again. We showered in the guest bath across the hall for the last year and a half and finally picked a contractor to come tear our the old shower & put in a new one.

Here's to progress!!! And look at that DEEP tub... ahhh I can just feel the bubble bath I'm going to take when this is all over.

We also decided (unless we chicken out) to sand and paint the vanity (which someone has already done in the past) and possibly replace some fixtures and repaint while it's all a mess already! Hopefully we'll make a trip or two to Lowe's/Home Depot this weekend and get to work! Here's to hoping for success!

Vanity Currently - love the double sinks. Hate the color. Hate the faucets. Hate the lights on the medicine cabinet but LOVE the medicine cabinet!
