    Bathroom Planning: Closets

    January 21, 2019 /

    What’s In A Closet? No, not all master bathrooms have closets. But we’re making room for a very small one in our bathroom addition, and it brought up some interesting dilemmas for me! So just like with my post on planning for a vanity, choosing between a shower and/or tub, and a separate toilet room, I’m sharing my planning questions with you! Consider Possible Layouts When you are drawing up plans for a new bathroom, it’s easy enough to allocate space to a closet. BUT, what you can’t see on a set of blueprints is how does that closet function? Is there enough space for it to be a walk-in…

    Cherry-Picked: Happier Podcast

    January 15, 2019 /

    A Podcast That Will Make You Happier I’ve forever been obsessed with getting to know myself better. I never meet a personality quiz I didn’t immediately answer. I think it’s because if you know yourself better, you can be the best version of yourself. And being you is the best way I know to be happy! OK, this is a slight change from my usual posts about DIYing, but bare with me. Since it’s the beginning of the year and a lot of people are trying to improve and set goals in different areas of life, I thought I would share my favorite podcast, Happier with Gretchen Rubin.

    Bathroom Makeover Without Removing Tile With all of my potty talk lately, I thought I’d jump ahead of all the planning to inspire you with a finished bathroom we completed recently for Today’s Homeowner. Beige and Dark Before The bathroom was in great shape but aesthetically it needed a little improvement. I loved the shape of the tiles, but the color just felt dated and drab.

    Bathroom Planning: Toilet

    January 8, 2019 /

    Do You Need A Separate Room For Your Toilet? In addition to my shower/tub debate and bathroom vanity options, I never knew I’d need to contemplate whether or not the toilet needed its own room in our new bathroom. Water Closet Commonly referred to as a water closet (or WC), toilet rooms are small nooks with a toilet and a door. Most often seen in a master bathroom, they provide privacy for ‘using the facilities’ while someone else can be accessing the rest of the bathroom. And that’s why I’m currently a fan of the WC!

    How to Add Storage & Organize the Garage When it comes to organizing ANY space in your house, it’s essential for everything you need stored to have a designated spot. The garage Dad and I recently helped overhaul on Today’s Homeowner was a great example! Remove All The Things The first step to getting a more organized garage is to take everything out of the space, in this case the garage. The emptiness might inspire to throw out a little more than you might otherwise have! Put things into piles-trash, donate, camping, yard, tools, etc. This way you can see and know exactly what’s left to be accommodated in your new…

    How to Choose Between a Shower and/or Tub Things haven’t changed much on my bathroom addition planning, but I thought I could still continue my bathroom planning series for you! And since it’s about my master bathroom, we’ll start with what I consider the most luxurious of options you’ll consider. Separate Tub and Shower I think most people would agree that this is the ultimate, top-dog option when it comes to a master bathroom. Especially with the currently trendy, freestanding-style tubs.

    How to Update Front Door without Paint Nothing makes you think about the status of your front door like the holidays! Even if your family rarely uses it, it seems the front door gets a lot of action with holidays guests (and packages) coming and going. So I came up with a few ways to update your front door without painting it, which can be a full-day project if you include drying time! And who has time for that this time of year?!

    How to Select a Bathroom Vanity This marks the first post I’m sharing about the new master bathroom my husband and I are planning to add to our house in 2019! I first shared the news in my newsletter, so if you don’t already subscribe, click here to sign up now for more behind the scenes fun! We’ll add a door on this wall in our bedroom (eliminating the window) and the addition will be in what is now a dead spot in our yard. Win-win! As we’re in the very beginning stages of planning this addition, a lot of questions have come up. And I thought they might not…

    Easy Way to Label Bathroom Drawers

    October 25, 2018 /

    How to Add Stylish Labels to Organize Your Vanity A few months ago I made a few small changes to our small bathroom. (You can watch that video here.) One of the things I did was update the drawer pulls to help them match our new towel bar and just to give the bathroom a fresh look. Then ImpressArt* reached out to me and challenged me to incorporate some metal stamping into our bathroom. Challenge accepted! I decided it was the perfect opportunity to help (slowly) teach our toddlers about personal property and that not everything is theirs! AKA, I labeled my drawers, so they know what they shouldn’t touch!…
