Our Powder Room Has the Mumps!!!

August 17, 2018 · In: Interior design

Our Powder Room Reno!

Our Hardwoods Floors are on order and that means its time to get the powder room, laundry room, and fireplace done… because we won’t be touching our flooring surfaces after our Authentic Reclaimed Hardwoods go in!  This basketweave marble is A DREAM!!  I couldn’t bring myself to just install floor… and if I was going to paint, then I better go ahead and rip out those tacks… and then I needed new lights… sigh… but it’s going to be so awesome when it’s done!

Here’s a little reminder of where we started and our mini fix…

Sadly pulling the dreaded tacks did not go well.  In an effort to fill, sand, and prep these walls… things have only gotten worse.  Much worse.

Our walls have the Mumps

I have professional backup coming in the morning because, guys, sometimes it’s better to admit defeat and get it done than to spend hours trying to DIY something.  (I won’t be quitting my day job, that’s FOR SURE!)

While I try to calm the panic over this heinous wall crime (Don’t EVER put tacks/push pins… anything in your walls!) I’m daydreaming of how it’s going to look afterwards…

HERE’S THE PLAN:

Sometimes you just have to go for what you love and we are definitely doing that in this room!  Walls will be slightly lighter… yet another shade of grey, of course, and we are even keeping a little gold… just in a completely updated and modern way!

Every now and then something truly extraordinary e Every now and then something truly extraordinary enters our lives and we cannot help but stop and admire their beauty…
These pieces gifted to us from @jamieyoungco completely took our breath away. 
1. The Tangled knot has a gorgeous movement that is both interesting and exciting!
2. The Marble Bowl is warm, so smooth you can’t help but run your hand over it, and has a subtle veining that is the epitome of quiet luxury!
3. The Hand Blown vases possess everything I love in a vase… repetition, structure, and a beautiful bubble in the glass- each one is unique! 
These stunning pieces really packs in the wow factor and I couldn’t wait to share them with you!! I’ll have everything linked up in my LTK (link in bio) and in my stories for you! XxV

It’s the little ones that pack a punch! My mom It’s the little ones that pack a punch! 
My mom always told me that and somehow I don’t think she was referring to small bedrooms 🤔 but I still think the saying goes here because this guest bedroom is petite but shows that you can create incredible, cozy, and luxurious spaces no matter what size the space is!  @article sent us so many gorgeous furniture pieces but the finishing touches are almost all from @amazonhome !!! Small room? Tiny budget? Ha! I laugh in the face of challenges such as these!!! 👊🏽 we can do great things and the challenge only makes the result all the sweeter!

We did a little experiment to test the power of color. Before the room was dark and sultry and afterwards it’s light and airy. Almost everything else stayed the same! It’s been fun to see it both ways and I STILL can’t decide which is my favorite! I love them both!
