This is what we started out with.. nothing absurdly ugly just drab, old and lived in.. and not by us.  I notice that my before pictures lack pillows and a blanket.. we have those.. lol.. we had already started moving things out of the room when I remembered wait.. I need pictures!! That white door at the end is our old bathroom and the doors to the left our old his and her walk in closets.. that entire nook was taken in to create our new master bath :) The his in hers were converted into a larger joint closet.. with it's door to the left and the door to the new bathroom to the right The inside of the closet customized with ClosetMaid and the walls painted a beautiful Shell Coral by Behr.. seriously this picture does not do the color justice. The walls painted and floors refinished.. I'll tell you the nightmare that is refinishing your floors on another day.. And then work began on our great big Ikea hack.. this is one of my f

The leaves were still a lovely green the effects of autumn only mildly visible with hints of oranges and reds slowly creeping in.

M and I were tickled by the fact that most of you thought the before picture of our teeny tiny master bath was in fact the after. We were constantly bumping into each other.. everything was golden and most things were being held together with caulk.. the previous owners solution for most things..oh and how can we forget our very own bathroom phone.. lol Our plan from the moment we bought this house was to use this space to create a larger bathroom. The two doors to the left are the his and her walk in closets.. we got rid of those doors and created a new door.. but more about the closet later.  We hired the contractor, worked out the design and then came the fun but hard part picking a color palette, buying the vanity.. choosing tiles. So many options!  The door to the left is for the new joint walk in closet and the door on the right to the new master bathroom. and now the after TIPS: -Pinterest is both a god send

Where do I begin? So the ankle.. remember that? If not click here for a refresher.. well two and a half months later it still hurts. I have done physical therapy, had an MRI and still no solution.. now I am on prescription medicine.. something to fix the nerve damage I have along with the partially torn ligament. Yup.. it just keeps getting better. Boy do I know how to sprain an ankle. But there is a light at the end of the tunnel.. I have been on the pills almost two weeks and I can feel the difference.. thank God! The contractor finally left.. almost three months later. It started with the master bath and bedroom.. when we started to rip out the old carpet it made the most sense to rip out all the carpet and refinish the floors.. and since we were ripping out carpets why not just repaint too.. and so the job took on a life of it's own.. and we are done! I can not wait to get settled in and share with you the results.. But here are a few BEFORE's  Teeny Tiny Master

As most of you may know we had planned a little kid free getaway in December for our anniversary that didn't exactly go as planned. So when our birthdays rolled around.. happened to fall on a weekend.. and my mom was visiting an impromptu getaway seemed perfect. Not wanting to venture too far away from home we picked a cute little bed and breakfast about an hour away. We started my birthday on Saturday with breakfast at home with the family and then headed to the mall for some shopping. We hardly ever get a chance to go to the mall.. and it is even rarer to get an opportunity to go without the kids. We have become online shoppers.. So in a mall.. we hardly knew what to do.. and so instinct took over and we ended up shopping for the boys.. Boy do we suck at this pampering ourselves business. Without the filters of online shopping it seemed a bit mind boggling to scan the racks.. but we didn't not give up till we both bought at least one item for ourselves. The word LOSERS! co
