I’ve just a few irons within the fireplace proper now with the work I’m doing on the entrance porch, and the studio undertaking ready within the wings. (The climate has turned dangerous now, and shall be for a few days, so I’ll be specializing in the studio right this moment and presumably by subsequent week.) So it’s attainable that you simply’ve forgotten that I’m additionally planning some modifications to the hallway lavatory.
That’s not likely a undertaking that I’m champing on the bit to get began on. The entrance porch and studio initiatives are precedence proper now. However I do wish to have every thing I want for the toilet updates in order that when the entrance porch is completed, and I’m eyeball-deep within the studio undertaking, I can use the toilet updates as my “I want a break from the studio” undertaking.
Right here’s what the toilet seems to be like proper now…
I’m nonetheless working by all the updates I wish to make, however I do know for positive I would like (1) a brand new bathe curtain, (2) a brand new vainness shade, and (3) a brand new countertop.
I had already selected the bathe curtain material. My plan was to make use of the identical material that I used on pillows which are within the purple chairs in the lounge.
That material is one among my all-time favorites. I’ve some available, however not sufficient for a bathe curtain, so I deliberate to purchase extra. That’s confirmed to be an impossibility. The material has been discontinued, however I believed for positive I may discover some remaining inventory someplace. However I’ve scoured the web for extra of that material, and I simply can’t discover any. I’ve discovered it listed at two on-line material shops, and I’ve positioned an order at each shops, solely to obtain an e mail from each stating that they really don’t have any of that material in inventory.
So I’ve been compelled to begin over in my seek for the proper material. I imagine I’ve discovered some nice contenders, although. I got here throughout one specific designer on Spoonflower who has a number of completely different watercolor floral prints (watercolor florals are my favourite), and a few of them are in colours that might work completely in our home.
*This publish accommodates affiliate hyperlinks.
This primary one is my favourite. I do want the print have been just a little bigger (y’all know I like BIG flowers), however I feel it’s very fairly simply as it’s. The colours are good, and I’d have heaps to select from when deciding on a brand new vainness shade. It’s a contented, colourful material with out being infantile, which is at all times a tough steadiness to strike.
This subsequent one is similar design in a unique shade. It might be good for our home as properly, though I knew some you would possibly say, “An excessive amount of teal!” 😀 By no means. One can by no means have an excessive amount of teal.
I actually just like the lightness and airiness of this subsequent print. The flowers look delicate, which appears good for a loo.
And at last, this coral floral actually struck me. It’s out there in different colorways, however this one was my favourite.
So if I had to decide on proper this second, I’d most likely go together with the primary one, though the one with the teal background is a really shut second.
In different information, I did get the new flower sconces.
Now the duty shall be to determine the right way to make these sconces appear to be hand sculpted plaster like the other very expensive flower sconces that I really wanted however couldn’t justify buying due to the value. I’ve a sense that some air dry Sculpey clay is in my future.
So for now, my precedence is engaged on the entrance porch when the climate is gorgeous. On dangerous climate days (like right this moment and tomorrow), and after the entrance porch is completed, I’ll be targeted virtually completely on the studio till it’s completed. However I do know that in that studio undertaking, there shall be days after I simply want a break from the studio, so I’ll have these enjoyable little lavatory updates that may preserve me busy.
