The Finished Products

All of the projects from my three day weekend are now complete. I say "now" complete because I did not actually get them completed in my allotted three days. I couldn't find any curtains that I liked to match the bedding for the guest room. I finally found some this week and I finished the guest bedroom yesterday on my half Friday off from work. I think everything turned out pretty well. I still have a few paint touch-ups to do this weekend, but all in all, I think I did pretty darn well! Brian wasn't so sure about painting our vanity black, but when it was done, he commented on how nice it looked. Below are some photos of the finished products!


The bathroom vanity...at odd angles...since our bathroom is soooo small! Brian did say that now that the vanity is black, that the bathroom seems bigger. I guess black really is slimming! Below that are the mirror and the tile sample board. We are having the floor re-done in a few weeks. We have chosen the color in the top right hand side. It has more gold to it than shows up in the picture. I can't wait to see it done!

The kitchen...re-painted. It is close to what it was before but it needed touched up. Since we didn't know that colors the previous owners had used, we re-painted the whole thing. It looks much warmer. You can also see Brian's handyman work in the background. He re-tiled the backsplash while I was in San Diego this summer for work. I think it turned out fabulous. Thanks Brian!

The finished guest bedroom. The bedding was a gift from my parents for Christmas. I love it! The guest bedroom looks really romantic and classy now! Lucy even approves! When I went to take the picture, I found her laying on the bed, asleep. I think she knew she wasn't supposed to be on the bed because she jumped up really quick and stood there looking at me like "What mom? I wasn't doing anything wrong." Visitors are welcome any time! The new bedding isn't just for decoration, it needs to be slept in too!
