A pale periwinkle.
Pictures?Ended up with a completely different pendant light for the stairwell - found one made from capiz shells, and then the two hallway lights are very simple flush mount alabaster domes which match the capiz shells quite well.
Still painting. Those lights will be sitting in their boxes for another month, at least!Pictures?
For those that have reno'd bathrooms (via hiring people, not doing it yourself, cause that ain't never gonna happen ), how many days does it take for a typical small bathroom reno? This is your typical 1980's style small master bath with a single counter with two sinks, toilet and standard tub (although mine is one of those full shower surround things so the tub is already gone). I hate the shower surround plastic walls thing. I want a shower with real tile. In fact, I could just keep the sink/counter as is and only do the shower to save time and costs. Can that be done in one full day, or is that still like a 3-5 day job just doing a shower even with professionals doing it? I have to be careful on burning vaca days and don't know that I could burn a full week for that.
This might be common knowledge, but I didn't learn this until recently so I wanted to mention it. Locks can be rekeyed, so you don't have to buy all new locks. My local locksmith/key shop will send someone out if you don't know how/don't want to remove your locks from the doors. They just reset the lock to a new key pattern and give you new keys.get the locks changed
If I EVER say "Let's redo the bathroom, honey!", just shoot me, OK?
It's been a month since there's been a toilet in our main bath. There's light at the end of the tunnel now, but I'm freaking exhausted.
It would have been easier, I'm sure, if this house wasn't 121 years old. Nothing in it is straight, and I still haven't figured out how to handle one of the main beems that is interfering with drywall placement.
Get an estimate from an expert, before ruling it out.And my little dollhouse only has one bathroom. I can't do a 6-week renovation in there. Although I would love to rip everything out and start over. It is admittedly, fugly as all hell!
This sounds promising!We had a third contractor look at the bathrooms last night. He renovated my sister's in-laws bathrooms and built their deck and pergola. They have very high standards, so I am going over next week to take a look at the contractor's work.
