As with most our home renovation projects, we usually have a few hiccups along the way. First, our floor tile was on back order. Fortunately, the subway tile for the shower was available, but later we discovered that the size of many of the subway tiles was off. Due to MacGyver husband's busy work schedule, we decided to hire a tile installer. Unfortunately, the tile installer didn't do a very good job (using the defective tile pieces probably didn't help). In the end, MacGyver husband ended up removing a portion of the tile work and replacing it.
The hexagon tile finally arrived. The floor hasn't been installed yet, but I wanted to show you the pattern I have chosen. It is a simple border with rosettes in the middle.
In the meantime, the sconces, pendant lighting, and shower fixture have arrived too. I was also able to go to Anthropologie and purchase the monogrammed towel hooks. So things are coming along.
In the above photo, you see a bit of blue paint in the corner. After much trial and tribulation, I was able to find Martha Stewart's Artesian Well. Most of the wall will be covered in white bead board, and then there will be a border of this blue as well as a blue ceiling.
There is still so much to do in this bathroom. Hopefully we'll get the floor done soon and then start hanging beadboard. I will keep you posted!
Can't wait to see more. Your inspiration is quite lovely Your new blog header is wonderful.
ReplyDeleteI have the perfect sink and tub for you......that same vintage blue. I can't wait to see it all finished. Love the tile.
ReplyDeleteRenovation?! Exciting times!
ReplyDeleteSadly, renovations are way expensive down here in Guatemala, so one has to settle with paint and accessories to give a "new look". Now that I will take down the Christmas decorations (usually one does that here after January 6th) I look forward to move furniture and accessorize to give fresh air to the areas.
Do keep us posted!! I love the colors you chose.
have a lovely day!
Pretty blue. I have been looking for the perfect blue for my bedroom for about 5 years. Seriously, I am so slow in picking out paint colors. Love the hexagonal tile.
ReplyDeleteLooks wonderful... I am going to post soon about a bathroom re-do here, though not quite as extensive as yours. Can't wait to see it in completion!
ReplyDeleteThis is coming along well. I really like the design that you selected for the tile and I simply love the blue paint color. The light fixtures are perfect too!
ReplyDeleteOh very nice colors, the tile is cute love the little hexagon flowers in the tile pattern. I like how you made that inspiration board. That is a great way to keep your ideas organized. Good Luck with your bathroom project can't wait to see pictures :) Love Heather
ReplyDeleteRegarding the peanut butter cookies we used a recipe from Anna's little cook book called Look and Cook. I did not get to try them because they have gluten which I am allergic to, but the kids said they were good. :)
ReplyDeleteLove the tile pattern. Gorgeous light. Can't wait to see the finished product.
ReplyDeleteWe will be redoing our ensuite bathroom soon and I am always looking for ideas.
ReplyDeleteOh My! This is sooooo exciting! I love the title pattern - sorry it been so difficult on you two but it's going to be so very worth it when it's done!
ReplyDeleteThe light fixture is B.E.A.U.T.I.F.U.L. I sure hope when the rooms all completed you give us all the full run down on where everything came from - I know I'll be taking a little closer look at that fixture.

ReplyDeleteI love your idea board! I have the picture with the cool vintage hangers although I have never been able to find a single one of them. Your floor tile is perfect. Can't wait to see the end result.
