THIS is happening right now at our house:

If you’re wondering why I’m so excited, click here to see our old front door – it will all become clear.  :)

A few weeks ago, this little lady helped me sew coral chevron curtains for the nursery.

Right now they’re hanging in our little girl’s room, all ready to be hemmed.  If I ever get around to it!!

We have tile at the flip!!

The bathrooms and laundry room have been fully tiled and grouted – now we’re just waiting on kitchen counters before the backsplash can go in.

This ol’ giraffe lamp is in the middle of getting a makeover.  We’ll see how it goes.  :)

What’s been going on with you?

The Flip: Days 65-66

Before I left town on Friday we had some exciting developments at the flip.

Hardware was installed on all of the doors . . .

The Flip: Days 65 & 66

I love these levers!!

The shower glass was installed – it totally changes the look of the master bathroom!

We also switched out the glass door on the shower in the 3rd bathroom – it was pretty nasty before, and looks soooooo much better now:

We didn’t go completely frameless on that door because we didn’t think it was worth the added cost, and I’m happy with that decision because this door looks great!

The last thing I saw before I left (to go on our annual shopping trip with my mom, sister and aunt) was this:

Woohoo!! I’m loving the 1 x 2 subway tile – it’s interesting but not too interesting next to the granite – don’t want too much competition!

And while I was gone Jason was sending me lots of updates, so I didn’t feel like I was missing too much of the action. He hauled over all 5 zillion of the boxes of bamboo so they could acclimate, and had a little help opening all the boxes from the tile guy’s kiddos – too cute!

And speaking of Ben, our tile guy, he’s been working magic with some travertine in the jack ‘n jill bathroom:

I saw it last night and the entire bathroom is almost finished – I’m dying over it!!

Is everything looking like you thought it would? Did you have a fab weekend, too?!?

P.S. It was a blast reading your comments on the Saturday Style post – thanks so much for your feedback and lovely words, I was so nervous about how that post would be received since it’s a big departure from the main discussions on this blog. You guys rock!!

Delight In Black & White

These are some pretty awesome, graphic patterns, don’t you think?

Well, you’re about to think they’re even more awesome, because . . . they’re tile!!  That’s right, these gnarly patterns (which come in tons of different colors) are made entirely of tiny mosaic tiles.  Can’t you just see a modern kitchen tiled from countertop to ceiling in these babies, or maybe a frameless glass shower?  I would probably keel over and die if I saw something that fabulous.

Check out more of these beautiful tiles right here.  I think this one might be my ultimate fave.  What about you?
