Bathroom Redo

Bathroom-Before
purple is still my favorite color but it was time to move on!
After
Still need to get a curtain that actually fits the window. That is an old curtain from our first house that I pinned up so I could drop the hideous plastic mini blinds!

see my Sissy girls sweet feet in the art?

Paint is Behr "Retro Avacado"

LOVE it!
scored that cute bin for $3 on target on mega clearance! It is actually a "beverage tub" What I love most about this transformation is everything besides that clearance beverage tub and paint I already had. I had bought the shower curtain last summer for our downstairs bathroom so the whole makeover centered around that. My mom had gotten us new towels for Christmas that I had never taken the tags off of because I knew I wanted to redo the bathroom and I wasn't sure of colors..so thank you walmart for letting me swap out 8 month old towels to get ones that matched! All the little pieces of decor are things I found and reworked. =)

Practical Kitchen Decoration

Don't have a backsplash? Is it looking kind of bare there? AWESOME fix? Hang your trivets to add a little flare. Easy, cheap and practical! LOVE it!

My mission

It started with Pinterest. A crafty side emerged that I had tucked deep down inside. I started making stuff. Redoing. Redecorating. and I had little money to do so...so thrifty became my middle name. People started asking, "Where did you get that?" and when I heard myself saying over and over again.."Well....I made it." I decided to create a place to share all of that. It helps that I have a hands on, talented husband who works in the construction industry. With his engineering skills and my visions we are a pretty cool team!
