MyORC--BEEN BATH

The late 70's oil boom remodel gender happy vibe

I get it...

pink and blue

when in your life have you ever seen a tub like this one?  I really hated to do away with it

all for one and one for all

boy girl boy girl pink blue pink blue

do you see the door leading into the living room?

and the ivy growing into the window?

the pink and blue color scheme into my heart?

All the while we were working on this bathroom, there was a serious romance blooming

and we knew some privacy would be in  order

sadly one cannot "gut" only part of such a small space

so I told my "tired of gutting self"

let the "gut" begin

let's take advantage of the new fangled flex pipe shall we?

and as long as the ceiling is gone?  why not make the shower cool?

Martini...double dirty!

2014 Color of the Year--Radiant Orchid

~We~~

• Prepared ourselves mentally and spiritually for the biggest DIY challenge SO FAR whatever
• Got a new hammer
• Took it to the mat
• Abused the Visa for hex, 12 x 12 marble, antique dresser, fixtures and other cool stuff
• Saved money on things that matter...towels from the dollar store
• Read the future for the 2014 Color of the Year and mixed our own 2012 color...Hooting Owl

Are you ready for today?

antique dresser becomes the infinity marble sink dresser

beadboard, trim and crown mold are White Sulphur

walls are Memoir

vintage sconces...eBay

this is what we call our Japanese tub..you can take a bath with four if you want

or shower for two

the bar of glass block are original to the house

Martini--double dirty--candles--ESPN!

the hex tile was twice the price of the 12x12...

the trick was..make a tile "rug" so you can have the look for less

maintain the ivy...on the outside!

color of the year 2014 with a chandy from Lowes

I love Lowes

now there's a place for all those antique purple bottles I've been collecting

a vintage apothecary jar of vintage perfume bottles

 ~peace man~

we took off the cabinet doors and added some fancy trim

a dollar store table with an extra 12x12 marble tile

lace curtains...like a wedding veil...Lowes

I love Lowes...working on my vowes to them

$150 for a new potty is the best money a person can spend in their budget

~~Biggest Challenge~

a picture paints 1000 words
