Finished- yahoo!!

I am so happy that we got the bathroom finished over the weekend. What a relief. It turned out cute and I am happy with it.
So here are the pictures:


Here is a shot of the CUTEST bathroom tissue holder that I got from http://www.eagle-emporium.com/wrought.htm. It's Amish made and was just what I needed, and their prices are dirt cheap.



For this room I used Historic Tan Gripper primer and satin paint from ICI Dulux, and for the trim I used semi gloss White Linen. It's a nice crisp white. The shower curtain is one I already had from the old house by Waverly. Still a big fan of their Country Life toiles. The mirror is from Southern Living at HOME, it's the discontinued Dress Me Up Mirror. I really like it because I can change the ribbon depending on mood and for holidays. I used seed glass shades for the light fixture from Lowe's because I just really *heart* seed glass. I got the little cabinet from Homegoods, and even though it fell out of the back of the truck when we got home, it didn't break and looks fine (well one door is crooked LOL.)
One more look:


This was a special job for us, especially since we did everything ourselves, including some plumbing, and drywall. It's a small bathroom that was added on in the back of the house. The back entry and this bathroom is located in what used to be a porch.

Why o why

Why do all my projects take waaayyyy longer than I plan?? It must be because I am always doing about 5 million projects at once. Well, more like 5, but still. And I still have to keep up on the everyday stuff. The everyday stuff has multiplied a lot since Ashlyn got big enough to really get into things. I have been working on my ebay store too, it's worth a look and you can see it here : http://stores.ebay.com/The-Denham-Genes
Next post will hopefully contain a picture of my finished bathroom!
