the Friday five : house details

1.     Master bath.  Of course I have like a million gorgeous all white marble bathrooms pinned… but I don’t have an all-white marble bathroom budge ;-)  I’m trying to get the “look for less” so to speak… I’ve thought about doing color tiles and different things, but I keep coming back to all white tiles and having a light aqua/spa color on my walls, I cannot quit that color!  This is where my head is at right now….  The floor tiles are pretty cheap so I’m hoping I can pull off the others without breaking the budget.

 

 My inspiration : 



 2.     Kitchen backsplash.  I had ALL white in our last kitchen (cabinets, white subway tile and white countertops)…so I wanted to mix it up a bit in this kitchen, and again…I cannot get enough of the pale aqua/sea green colors so that’s what I’m leaning towards for our backsplash.  I’m sure there are a million different tiles out there but it’s so overwhelming!

3.     LIGHTING. Oh my.  This one kills me.  For the life of me, I cannot decide what direction I want to go in.  I made up my mind on a dining room fixture…and our kitchen is open to/adjacent to the dining room… so I don’t know if I want them to be similar/coordinate or completely different?  Glass, metal, wood…. Too many options!




 
 

4.     I found this for the dining room and I love it, hope it works out well!

 5.     We just got our new faucet in the mail yesterday, it’s a beauty!  ( the bellera by kohler)And I picked out these polished nickel pulls (Roth and allan, lowes)for the cabinets, I’m doing pulls on all of the lowers and knobs on the uppers.  

 




 Happy Friday!!

    We did all marble in our master bath room and order it all online - not sure if you already purchased but if not I'll ask stephen for the website.... it ended up being half the price than all the stores around here

Takeover Tuesday

Surprise Caro, guess who hacked into your blog! I know what you are saying to yourself...I can’t believe it’s taken this long for me to mess with you on here. For those of you who haven’t figured it out yet, this obviously is not your sweet Caroline, this is her wonderful, sarcastic, fun loving, baby daddy (or is it babies’ daddy now?), also known as her husband. (Caro at her finest, throwing me a great 25th birthday celebration) Where do I begin…. I guess we can talk about how this marital bliss came to be before we talk about the author of this blog and how amazing she. Caroline has been the love of my life for as long as I can remember, we were actually first grade boyfriend and girlfriend if you can believe it. After first grade, there was the great divide, as both of us went to different schools the following year. Finally, after 10 agonizing, lonely years we were reunited at a house party our senior year in high school. I, naturally, had always kept an eye on her throughou...

What's in a name?

I tell ya, the name game is HARD. Really hard. I never thought that I'd be 27 years old and pregnant and not know what I wanted to name my child. I *think* we have come up with the one , but I'm not quite ready to put it out for the world to see...you know, don't want to many people rushing to get monogrammed bubbles. Ha! Jokes! Anyways...so I can look back and remember what all we went thru to come up with a name in 20 years I am going to lay it all out there. I'll start with saying I want a family name to be somewhere in my children's names. It doesn't have to be a first name, but some name in the child's name I want to be from a family member/family. We'll start with boys names, because they got taken off the table when we found out it was a GIRL..this will be short. Mikey's middle name is Thomas...his grandfather's name is Thomas. So...we always said Thomas would be in our son's name. I always thought it would be cool to do a Tho...

My Pinterest inspired master bedroom makeover part one.

The BEFORE pictures. I've been itching to re-do my master bedroom for quite some time now. I am one of those people that likes to re decorate quite often...unfortunately for my bank account. Mikey's mom bought him a full queen sized bedroom suite when he graduated college, which was wonderful. It is very nice furniture and has served us well. But, I am SOOO sick of all the dark matchy-matchy look it brings. I will use this furniture again in a guest bedroom one day...but for now, it's time to retire it from my master. All of my bedding and rug I had previously...I've now had this zebra/brown/green theme for almost 4 years...so over it! Fortunately for us...my brother and SIL got a new bed...so what do we get?? Their old KING size bed!! Woohoo. I do NOT like for people to touch me when I sleep, I need my space...I've been wanting a king for so long. Even though our room isn't the biggest the king is working out okay...we aren't going to be in this h...
