Before: master bathroom. Needed a temporary fix until I can afford a new countertop to replace the faux granite laminate. Yikes. Hate the pinkish tiles behind the sink too but, another day!
After (still in progress): first pic is master bath wall behind the sink. Covered in Cole & Son Egerton wallpaper. Also painted & poly'd countertop gray, painted wood cabinets, and added vintage aged brass bamboo hardware. Did not have enough for door hardware but hoping to find knobs. Better?
Entryway of house almost finished! Ran out of wallpaper (Graham & Brown Manderley) but new roll came in so hope to finish soon. This big blank wall needed something & my sweet husband (he wants me to put "masculine") was a HUGE help.
Made an easy roman shade out of mini-blinds for the kitchen. Instructions via Little Green Notebook.
Next big project is a loveseat I found on Craigslist for $40! Was inspired by one I saw at Spruce. I think I'm going to try to make a slipcover (my first!) in gray linen for it (that is why there is a gray jacket draped over the back!). I also made the pillow recently, but not sure if it will stay there.
I guess I have made some progress with the house but there is a neverending list...sometimes it is difficult to rejoice in the stuff I have accomplished b/c of that list in my head!
Great wallpaper, can't wait to see the rest ;)
ReplyDeleteI am *LOVING* that wallpaper...we need an up close and personal pic of it! (c: Looks like you've got your hands full of projects and a head full of good ideas...I'll be back to check the progress! Thanks for the visit!

I love the wallpaper and the counter looks much better. I'm usually a fan of white over brown cabinets.
ReplyDeleteYou are getting so much done! That sink looks great and I've always loved that wallpaper. I love that roman shade you made too - where did you get that gorgeous fabric?
ReplyDeleteLeah - love the bamboo knobs in your bathroom makeover! Have you started the slipcover yet? I'm debating about trying one, too but know I don't have the patience. Yes, I received the zig zag sample in the blue (navy) color. Where are you thinking of using it?
ReplyDeleteLooking good so far, end result will be great!
ReplyDeletethe roman shade fabric is P.Kaufmann Tropical Fruit Vines. thanks!!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, I love your blind, and the settee.. did you slipcover it?! I'd love to see.. I'm smitten with settee's :) xoxo
ReplyDeleteHi Leah, your bathroom looks great! I'm using the same "egerton" wallpaper in my powder room, but we're 2/3 done papering and we've realized we need a bit more paper! Do you by any chance have any leftover that I can purchase from you?
