May I present you with: our remodeled bathroom! Yep, we got beautiful Picaso Travertine tile, and painted the walls, some new hardware....ta-da!
I'm so happy with it. So...now I'm up for more! And...(drumroll please)....I have a plan! What??? Rebecca is planning ahead and not just "diving right in"? Yep, I have a plan...and I plan to complete what I begin. THIS WEEKEND!
We have lived in our Tennessee home for nearing 3 years...and I have yet to feel like I have really worked at the interior decorating. If you know me at all, you know I enjoy decorating, design, crafting, painting, and overall "nesting" in my home. I love it! However, Nashville has a way of sending musicians, artists, songwriters into a whirwind of insanely trying to "make it" (which is another topic altogether). So I have decided, "No more! I will not deny myself the right to act like a normal 'house-wife' any longer!" LOL
This weekend I will embark on a journey. Wonderful, fun, challenging, creative, fabulous, drive-Jesse-crazy, rewarding journey filled with paint, elbow grease, power tools, etc. Yay! I'm tackling my house. The plan is: during each half of each day, I will empty ONE room at a time of nick-nacks, etc, arrange furniture in a way that makes much more sense (removing some furniture if necessary), and then following some very basic decorating guidelines as I fill each room with PLANNED items. You know, color-pallets to stick to, grouping like-items together, having a FOCAL point in each room, using lighting to create an atmosphere, fun stuff!
So, why am I telling you this? Because now I'm accountable! (Or insane...) Next week I'll let you know of my progress...hopefully including some pictures...and see what you think! And hopefully Jesse will be impressed with the results. :)
So...are you thinking this girl's out of it? OR.....are you INSPIRED?? A little??? Do something at YOUR house this weekend...it feels great! I love giving ideas. Just ask!

You are so not crazy!!! That tile looks great! Did you do it yourself? I absolutely HATE tile work, but man does it look good! And I can't wait to see your pics! I think you and Jesse will both love the new "look" you'll give your house. Just don't take after me and my husband. Usually right when it's completely remodeled, we sell it....;)
The bathroom looks awesome. I too spent last night decorating my bathroom. I couldn't do anything "fun" with paint since it's at my grandfather's house, but I got new rugs & towels and am going for the beach theme as I have seashells & beachclass for decoration. Post pics as you redo your rooms!
