New Bathroom

minnie pal · **Posted: 10-11-2009 , 01:14 PM** #1

my new bathroom...

pouffe from closing down sale, two cabinets old now, brought with me to 'new hoose' and wallpaper stripes put down centres, topped with two pieces of wood painted, was a wall shelf, topped again with glass coasters bought at car boot sale.

Lu seat reduced from E30 to E10 woodies, just placed on raised seating,

flooring vinyl tiling from Homebase, mat, towels from Guineys.

Tiles top of sink from JUMBLE TOWNER!! blue beading neattens edge up. pic frames on lu top, car boot. rice flower, old from Dunnes.

Scales, charity shop, round mirror charity shop, E6! had a chip, covered by a embroidered butterfly, E2 then embroidered buttons on wall.

wicker laundry basket painted white and wallpaper sealed with roll of transparent book cover stuff, side of bath removed, hardboard sealed with sealant and wallpaper put up, yet to seal under rim of bath and bottom. chips on enamel on rim of bath touched up with stuff made for the job, small tube.

What do my friends think!!!?

Yes, i am very pleased with the whole project. the bathroom was the easiest to photograph actually, the light less strong there caused less reflections and its quite minimalist.
Disappointed with the other pics.
Thinking of inviting those who know me to see it all in real life to celebrate being a skip, muck repurposer and doer of impossible, mission impossible which has been accepted, completed and i think, the tape self destructed, or did it?

I'm not allowed in the sun between 10am and 6pm (doctor's orders) so wouldnt do good in the med or tropics. sorry about that, you will have to do more humbuggging.

Oh, well, i got an answer from the garden, saying they are in production and they go out in July and i answered "oh sucks, did i miss it all then?" no answer. well you wouldnt if you used those words eh, I didnt pander and maybe i should have, wanted twins pad done, mines ok. really wanted twins garden done its just flat .....muck, literally.

Oh summersun, here something to laugh at.....microwaved teeth, first time round.....lost them tonight....found them in the rubbish bin.

I hate them. I hate them. I think they were meant for repurposing, but cant think how.

yeh, heaps of fun here, send the hubby over, he'd love it...might spend all his time looking for dentures and spray glueing practically everything in sight as i continue to make 'magic' in my place and at this stage i wish i could stop so may have to add OCD to all that is wrong with me.
xnow and g'night!
