We’ve always got a project or two going on around here. Sometimes it seems like they never end…one leading right into another in an endless cycle! But that’s what we signed up for when we bought this old house, and for the most part, we really enjoy the process and of course, the outcome! Even though we hardly ever splurge big on our renovations and spend much of the project loosing plenty of blood, sweat, and tears, we still find satisfaction getting our hands dirty doing as much as we possibly can ourselves! We’ve tackled almost every floor and room of this house…but a couple still remain partially unchanged since we moved in 13 years ago. So not only do we still have projects on the list, the maintenance cycle keeps us busy in between…and there’s usually an unexpected problem popping up here and there! Oh, the joys of an old home! And sometimes a tiny project can last years…making small changes along the way, one extra-bit-of-spending-money at a time! Such is the case with our first floor powder room. It was the least unfortunate looking of all the rooms when we moved in, so it remained the same while we attempted to alter the ones we really couldn’t stand! We finally got around to stripping the wallpaper and changing the faucet but that’s where it ends…until now. And even though it still isn’t finished, I’m going to share how it’s going so far…and will follow up with the final result! I guess if I always waited until a project was TOTALLY completed, I’d never share anything! See how we’ve started…
