Ahhh, Friday. Glad it's here! I'm actually headed to Nashville this weekend with a friend -- excited to explore a new town. I've been a couple of times, but it's been ten years since I've visited, and a lot has changed. Any recommendations for places to visit? Cool restaurants, shops, etc.?
Anyway, moving on. I'm also excited to announce a little "challenge" that I am going to take on, which is in partnership with the BLACK + DECKER Big Finish. BLACK + DECKER is challenging all the participants to take on a project around their house that they have been putting off, and FINISHING it. I was actually supposed to start this project on the tenth of November, so I am 11 days behind - bad blogger! So, I only have 19 days to complete it. Yikes!
What project am I going to finish? Our guest bathroom. I spruced it up a while back, but there are a few things that I just still don't like about it. It has never felt finished to me, and it won't take a whole lot to get it there. Heres what it looks like now:
Like I said, it's done-ish. It started out looking like this:
I didn't love the cabinet from the beginning. It's a little too modern for me, and the counter bugs me because water spots stay on it. When it gets wet, a little dark shadow appears in the spots where the water has been, from absorbing it. It's one of those little things thats not a huge deal, but just bugs me, you know?! Anyway, I eventually painted the cabinet, and changed out the hardware.
I also switched out the light fixture which used to look like this:
and it looks like this:
It's cute, even though it was a nightmare to hang! I had a hard time. At least I improved my electrical work skills ;)
and it now looks like this:
(from Pfister)
I've already done a lot in here, so it's really just finishing touches that I'd like to change. Hence the BLACK + DECKER BIG FINISH. :)
So, anyway, the rooms that were inspiration to me for my bathroom were these:
I'm thinking of possibly changing out the countertop... can this be done in 19 days? Not sure! It'd be my first experience with changing out a countertop, but it can't be that difficult...right?!
I also want a different rug in there (I do love that rug, so I'll just move it somewhere else), and a different shower curtain. I'm thinking that I will either sew a new one, or have one sewn with some cool fabric. I have always felt like the one I have in there now is just so-so. I'm always on the lookout for a new one, but never find one.
I also think I'd like to add some trim around the mirror, like this.
So, here we go -- wish me luck. Obviously, I'll be completing nothing this weekend in Nashville. Not good! Check back here to see what I improve upon in the next couple of weeks! I may have big goals, but you guys know I'm not afraid to roll up my sleeves and get things done.
Anyway, what's in it for you, with this BLACK + DECKER Big Finish challenge? A lot!
BLACK+DECKER has launched a movement to get all the unfinished home projects moving again. Join them for the opportunity to win $10,000 cash and products. Plus, they might put you and your finished project on a billboard right in the middle of Times Square. So while your family may never notice that you finished hanging the crown molding, millions of others will!
For this campaign, there are Weekly Prizes, at approximately $439.91 per prize, and one Grand Prize of $10,000. The Weekly Prizes include one of each of the following:
BLACK+DECKER prize package comprised of one (1) of each of the following:

Please note, the contest ends December 28th, 2014.
Check out the Finished Project Gallery to browse the other entries and get inspiration for their own projects.
Thank you to BLACK+DECKER for sponsoring this post and inspiring me to FINALLY finish this room!
You will get it done, I am sure. The white shower curtain looked good. Will you do the counter yourself? Have a good trip/visit in Nashville...Alison
ReplyDeleteprobably won't do it myself!! thanks!
DeleteCouple of things...
ReplyDeleteFirst, when you hang your shower curtain, take the rod up to the ceiling. It makes a huge difference. Kinda like when you hang a drapery rod. You want it as high as possible. Of course "off the shelf" curtains are too short for that. But if your making a new one...
Second, I bet you could find a remnant at a stone yard for an affordable countertop.
I always love your designs, so I know whatever you do, it will look great.
Have fun in Nashville!
yes! It actually used to be a lot higher, but it fell one day, and someone else put it there and I haven't moved it. and yes, gonna check out a stone yard! thanks!
DeleteI have no doubt you could do it if you want to!!! Love the changes so far:)
ReplyDeletethanks sherry!
