February days are now gone and March has officially kicked in. I finally purchased a new monthly focus board. We ventured out for a day date which included a movie. I love our day dates. I will give my honest review about the movie for those interested. I wanted to see this movie as it was based on a true story. I did enjoy the movie but oh my, it was a tear jerker from the get go! It ended good but mercy! Let's just say that I am thankful that no one was sitting close enough to see my tear stained face. I am glad that I saw it but I am good for a while on sad movies, even if they do end good! My oldest daughter, her husband and their son participated in the Spartan race which is a series of obstacle courses that challenge. They done so well. As you can see from the pictures it gets pretty muddy! My three daughters participate each year in the Gate River Run. I love it that they do this together. They have so much support & encouragement from all the onlookers. I am just
Praise the Lord! I have had it finished a while and thank those of you that had heard me rattle on about it. Here are just a few pictures of the choices I made.The floor I decided to go with I LOVE!
Looked at several places and winded up with this:
I love the color and the fact that is actually looks like ceramic tile and feels like tile to your feet but doesn't have the upkeep that tile does.
I also redone my cabinets. Amazing what a good cleaning will do...a little sanding and some stain! And of course new cabinet handles always top it off!
The next piece I love is a piece I found at Ross. It isn't too big and it isn't too small and it only cost $15....yep, that is what I am talking about. The box that is holding the wash clothes is actually a PLANTER! I bought another one just like that but much larger to serve as my garbage can! Why pay a fortune for those items when all we need to do is THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX!
These two framed pieces I just love! The mat around the words was perfect color and matched my sage color I was using. However the frame was a brassy gold color and I didn't care for that. So took a little spraypaint, taped the glass and sprayed away! Love the results and I love the words on these two prints. I have them on one wall.
Isn't this the truth!
The next print was the theme for my youngest daughter's Senior class. I have always loved this saying.
Thanks for looking and listening! When I get around to taking a few more pictures of my goodies in my new bathroom I will be sure to post!
Have a blessed day.

A planter for a garbage can? Only you Miss Cindy would think like that. I just paid $29.99 for a garbage can for my bathroom from Bed, bath & beyond! I love the color of the floor! But those prints are precious. Where did you get those????

Answer to your questions: Girl, I am too thrifty to pay $30 for a garbage can! I love this planter and found a larger one identical to the smaller one at Ross. Not sure what I paid but best I can remember I paid under $15 for both pieces! The prints: Found at Family Dollar in Jacksonville! $6 each! Spray paint: I already had. Krylon brand that Walmart sells. That color was the Satin Latte (I think) I love the Krylon from Walmart and the Valspar from Home Depot.
ReplyDeleteA planter for a garbage can? Love the idea! I love those two worded prints and I am not believing you found those at a Family Dollar store! I would love to get the one about mothers for my mom! I am checking out the Family Dollar Store! Which one in Jax did you go too? Lizzy

ReplyDeleteYou did a great job! I love everything you did. But I really love that you saved money where you could too!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by my blog. I got the chargers you liked from a place near me called Debra's Cottage. However, others have asked about them too and so I checked and found you can find them on EBay too.

Thank you so much for commenting. The Family Dollar I went too was on Chaffee road in Jax.
