I realized that I wasn't done showing off my buddy, Kris's home!!!!!
I meant to show y'all her powder room that is just off her kitchen.
I took pictures of it.....
I edited those pictures.....
and then I forgotted!!!!!!
Sooooo.......
Here's a shot of her leetle bathroom.
We wanted to be very clever and find something for a sink,
that wasn't a sink,
but could be a sink,
if we made it into a sink.....
Sooooooo.......
Kris and I were boppin' around one day.....
looking at a bunch of old stuff.....
'cuz we really like old stuff.....
when we found this table.
I says to her.....
"Hey Kris!!!!! This be way cool!!!!!"
Where upon, she answered.....
"YUP!!!!!"
So she bought it.
The End.
(No it isn't the end)
( It's never the end)
We had to have the table worked on a little to allow for the sink's plumbing,
so the drawer was altered to accommodate the drain pipe.
The drawer still functions, which is WAY cool.....
The top of the table is covered in decoupage.
How fabuloso is this?????
Here's another shot.....
We had the guy who reworked the table give it a good coat of water repellent top sealer.
I don't remember what he used.....
So don't ask me!!!!!
After finding such a great table, we wanted to honor it by finding an equally excellent sink!
We went to Home Expo which is now no more,
Home Depot having pulled the plug,
which is a cryin' shame, I tell ya, a cryin' shame.
We found both the sink and faucet there.
Kris did some internet diving and found the scones.
I don't remember who they're from,
so,,,,,
don't ask me!!!!!
She wanted a somewhat rustic feel, to work with the sink and faucet.
So, of course,
since she did this with me.....
We had to spend a lot on the lampshades!!!!!
We had oil parchment ones made, with scored lines.
You can sort of see the lines in the shot above.....
We covered the walls in a fun wall paper that looks like maps.....
Don't ask me who makes the wallpaper 'cuz
(all together now.....)
I don't remember!!!!!
And lastly is the mirror.
We looked for almost a year.
It couldn't be too wide, because it had to fit in this narrow space,
and it had to be simple to work with the room,
and it had to have a beat up feel,
and it had to be just what I had in mind.......
Kris kept showing me stuff,
I didn't like it,
or it was too wide,
or it was too short,
or it was the wrong feel.......
And then one day!!!!!
Kris and I were boppin' around .....
looking at a bunch of old stuff.....
'cuz we really like old stuff.....
when I found this mirror.
It was leaning against the wall of a group antique shop.....
The daft woman walked right by it!!!!!
(She's going to yell at me for making fun of her.....)
Well!!!!!
I saw it!!!!!
AND I SCREAMED!!!!!
Well.....
I didn't really scream.....
I said,
HEY!!!!!
Kris!!!!!
What about this???????
So she bought it.......
The End.
this really is the end!!!!!
Later, Gator
