Half Bath Fixtures

Spencer and I finally finished the shopping needed to complete our 1/2 bath downstairs. We have our lighting, a new toilet paper holder and faucet that I can't wait to install. Nineties brass be gone! Right now the ceiling is painted, but a couple things need to be patched, taped and then we paint! I am hoping it will be finished before the end of the month.

Hubby can be handy

Instead of buying another trashcan for returnables, the hubby got creative one day at work and made a recycle bin for our cans and bottles. I was so impressed I had to blog about it. I wasn't expecting it and thought it was cute he was making things easier for us. On the plus side, it doesn't take up as much room as a garbage can. :)

Our Kitchen is Painted!

Here it is!!!! Remember the old kitchen? Dark, drab and dreary turn into bright and vibrant! My Tuscan kitchen is taking shape. I love our star and wine tasting decor on the wall. I couldn't wait to share it with you - but we do have some finishing touches to add. We will be swapping range and refrigerator out for new stainless steel models soon along with replacing the brass fixtures. I will also be adding maroon drapes to the window by the kitchen table. Our pendant light above the sink was originally $80 and we got it for $19 on clearance. It looks awesome when on - it has a wood grain look to it when lit. I love being in my kitchen now!
