Another upgrade


This is the new vanity in our bathroom. It all started with the free pint of paint that Glidden offered a few months ago.
Then it was the buying of a desk/vanity. Next we used the mirror that we had in the downstairs bedroom (which has just been completely repainted thanks to Adam). But if we were going to have a new vanity, it just begged for a new light to be above it. I mean, it's the law, right? So David removed the fluorescent light that was there and to the far right of the wall. That light got moved to a downstairs bathroom that desperately needed a replacement. So off to Home Depot he went in search of a new light fixture. In the meantime, we had some plastering to do to get the wall prepared and to remove the evidence of where the previous light had been.
Then the painting. Two coats. Then new baseboards. And of course, any respectable vanity has a leopard-print tea light holder. {Still holding out for the perfect stool/chair.}
And like I mentioned, the downstairs guest bedroom is still being renovated.
And all because of this "free" pint of paint . . . .
