Great Start to the Weekend!

Mike and I had a wonderful start to our long MLK day weekend!  We've been accomplishing little things around the house that make big differences in my opinion.

I finished the second coat of varnish on the front doors.  They are looking a little more shiny now!

View from outside.
View from inside.  They just need one more coat!
Our Amazon fixtures came this week, so we were excited to get some finishing touches put up in the bathrooms.  It’s the little things in life, you know… like finally having your toilet paper on a holder, or hanging your towel on a towel rack rather than over the door.  Necessary for living?  No.  Nice to have?  Absolutely!

The toilet paper now has a home :)
Door stoppers for all the bedrooms and bathrooms (magnetic).
I also finally brought myself around to putting the hardware on the vanities.  Again, it’s nice to be able to use the drawers!

I used my handiwork to drill the holes for these, and then Mike finished up!
As I type, Mike is currently installing a curved Moen shower rod.  He had to buy a specialty bit to drill into this particular tile.  Here’s a look at all three of our bathrooms.  We still need to purchase mirrors, but after that, they are pretty much complete.  Thought it would be neat to give you a taste of the before and after on the master bathroom... Enjoy :)

A little reminder of just how FAR we've come... old master.
New master bath (minus the vanity mirror).
Another shot to show off the fantastic tile
work by my hubby (Mike Wolfe) and Uncle Frank Tau'a!  Nice work
gentlemen.  Took the inaugural shower in there last night!  Very spacious.
Here's what the Master currently looks like.  Still have a
way to go with decor, but no rush.  I can save that for later.
Upstairs guest bath.  Went with the beach theme.
Another to show off the tile work ;)
And finally the downstairs bath.  Still needs trim, a mirror, and glass for the shower, but totally usable as a nice half bath for now.  Wasn't too in love with the color once it went up on the walls, but it's growing on me.
