Our New Beautiful Bathroom!

This is Thais 2nd time ever doing tile and he did an amazing job! I'm so very proud of him! It started out with pink and white sponge paint, pink counter tops and white linoleum and super ugly and old lights.... with two puppies and me who uses a lot of hair product and loses hair like crazy white linoleum is a horrible idea! EVERYTHING shows!



thats our new rug hanging on the shower! :)


he had to put in a new hole and cover the old one for our new lights









all done! :) we got a good deal at home depot for the towel hangers, knobs, and faucet and I found that mirror at tj maxx!

I LLLOVE what he has done so far! One flat black wall with the rest of the walls white with 3 horizontal stripes going all around. It looks so much better than it did before now we just need to knock out that wall that separates the shower and toilet from the counter space so the bathrooms more open! :)

black destressed kitchen cabinets

Our kitchen is VERY out dated.... we have super old linoleum floors with leaf inprints in it and old laminate counter tops.  Our cabinets are newer but the color just doesnt look good... especially with red walls. We dont have much money right now because Thai has been laid off all winter so we want to do one thing at a time.  I would LOVE to start with the cabinets since it will probably be the cheapest and the easiest thing for me to do. :) I'm thinking about just sanding all the cabinets and then painting them brown, after that dries i'll paint them black and then destress them and put varnish over it to protect it... I think it would look good with the red walls.  What do you think? Have you done anything like this before? Advice would be much appreciated!

Here are a few examples that I really like!


this one is a little to distressed but it looks pretty neat in the pic!
