I spent the better part of my morning dreaming up ways to “complete” our master bath. I can’t really imagine the thought of a room actually being complete. However, this is a pretty comprehensive list of things to change and I think if we actually did these things I really may just be done *gasp*.
So here’s the mandatory list and the not-so-mandatory list of things I’d like to get done. Maybe we can even finish it before December?
mandatory:
- Inspired by many a magazine, I was finally able to convince J to remove the door from our linen closet and make it an open space when I showed him this exact renovation done by the fantastic couple over at This Young House. Thank you John and Sherry for finally helping me convince J that this needed to be done (even though you had no idea you were helping…I appreciate it!)
Here’s what I’m going for with this little project:
Poor J doesn’t know that I’m going to start it this weekend while he’s out of town. I hope that I can surprise him with a finished beautiful linen closet when he gets home, although I forsee me crying in a heap of sheetrock and shelving by Sunday, wondering what I got myself into (HGTV I am not). - New faucet
I found this stunner at Home Depot for just $59. Perfect.
- New shower head and tub faucet for $124 at Home Depot — not bad for the set.
- New knobs and pulls for the vanity:
not-so-mandatory:
- 42″ Granite vanity top with sink bowl — the price tag is what’s selling me. Just $199 for granite in the bathroom. I can see our lux real estate listing now. Ahhh…
So for just $404.05 (including the granite!) the bathroom can be complete and look oh so lovely. One room down, six to go!
