Motivation

I have a few outstanding projects. Just a few... I keep coming up with new projects and my sweet husband decided to give me some motivation. He said I could start my new projects as soon as I finish all those that are "in progress". Motivation received. So here are a few that I've finished thus far.



 Painting the pantry. I'd finished everything but the floor boards. They were replaced when we switched out the flooring and still needed to be caulked and painted.

It's now a fun dark blue which I had on hand already from a previous project. I dig how a little bit of paint can give a quick facelift. Quick if you don't procrastinate that is...

 Our kitchen is the turquoise I use for my backdrop in just about every photo. Love it. Happiest room in the house.


Master Bath. I switched out the mirror, painted the walls, and painted the vanity. The vanity is laminate and I didn't prep the doors well enough. The paint scratched easily. I was seriously annoyed and let them sit unattached for longer than I'm willing to admit to. I had to strip the paint, re-prep, and paint them again. 


Here's another view. It had more of a kids bathroom feel before. I still need to figure out some sort of wall art. Any suggestions? I think the vanity is calling for some hardware too...but for now it's good enough that I'm willing to call it done.

Two projects down, a handful or more to go...

  1. You've inspired me yet again! I think, once my kitchen curtains are done that I'm going to pick yet another color and paint the inside of my pantry, too. The door is already a really cool shade of green to go with my purple wall. Hmmmm, what to do what to do. . .

    1. I remember your purple wall (which I love) but don't recall your green door. I must come see.

      Just don't get me in trouble with your husband. :)
