Dreamy bathroom
Monday, June 28th, 2010When we were faced with expanding our house, I had the pleasure of drawing the blueprints myself. I especially enjoyed designing the new kitchen and bathrooms. I hired our new neighbor across the street to custom build our bathroom cabinets. He had spent some time in vocational training as a cabinet maker, and he offered to build our cabinets for cost. They came out beautiful! I hand painted the knobs and pulls to coordinate with the wallpaper.
And the luxurious towel warmers made me feel like pampered royalty! There simply are no words to describe how wonderful it feels to get out of the shower or bathtub and have a warm towel ready for you. I only wish that I’d had enough space and budget to put in a large spa tub too!
Our Christmas tree this year – most of the ornaments were hand made, mostly by myself or family members or friends. Isn’t it pretty? I even crocheted the angel topper and the tree skirt myself! This year the tree is a small 3 1/2′ artificial tree that had light bulbs already strung on it. I just didn’t want to bother with stringing lights this year myself! And we decided on a small tree to put on a table to help keep the dogs from bothering the tree. The last couple of years one of our dogs decided that chewing the strands of lights was a good idea!
