2012 January | Beneath My Heart

I FINALLY ordered the shower faucets for both bathrooms in our new addition.

We are not able to get the final inspection on the new plumbing until we install the shower/tub faucets. So hopefully our new faucets will come in this week, and we can get the plumbing inspected next week!

Once that is complete, we can get rolling on the dry wall! WHoop! WHoop!

I have to share this great deal I got on Amazon last night.

I was hoping to get a one handle shower faucet to somewhat match the handles on our claw foot tub. The tub faucet has cross handles, so I was so excited when I found this shower set from Belle Foret!

Every where I looked online, this same shower faucet was $150 or more!

But I got it on Amazon for $59.61!!

Plus, I had a $25 gift card to Amazon, so I really only paid $35.00! And it had FREE shipping!

That’s one of the best deals I have gotten in a long time. Especially for a brand new product.

Right now, our shower looks like this…

But I am hoping for it to have pretty white tile like this….

And I want Cy to add trim around door frame like this…

The shower at our previous house looked like this…(and I loved it too!)

What color tile do you think I should use in my shower?

I also got a shower/tub faucet for the boys’ new bathroom.

We got it from Home Depot online.

I think this is a pretty good price for the set.

Right now, the boys’ bathroom looks like this…

Here are a couple pictures that I’m using for inspiration…

I REALLY want to do a split curtain.

Probably in stripes, like this one.

And I’m considering white tile for their shower too. Am I crazy?

I like these cabinet mirrors, and I’m considering doing bead board half way up the wall. Maybe. Smile

How cool is that double sink?

And Cy is going to make a barn door for the bathroom entry. Kind of like this one…

Wouldn’t it be cool painted red?

We are hoping in a couple of weeks to finally get back to rolling on the addition.

Cy has gotten a little drywall up, and now you can see the doorway to our master bedroom.

Yay!

So excited to share all the progress with you!

Have you gotten any great deals lately?

Wow! The first month of the year is over!

What have you been up to??

I looked back through my January posts, and I didn’t really have any new DIY projects. We are still recovering from our crazy fast Kitchen makeover in December.

I did remove our shower door, but it was not an impressive project, so I’m not gonna share it again. Smile

You’re welcome.

But I know a lot of you have been super busy this past month!

I cannot wait to see your BEST DIY project of January, 2012!
