BATHROOM REVEAL! Holy cow right (swipe)? This project came at the perfect time to get me through all the emotions of this crazy time...the ceiling, the walls, the vanity, the painted star floor...I am proud of this space. As I shared in my stories, I was about to not reveal this space since yesterday I was handed the hardest “no” I’ve ever faced -and right at the last step- about something I’ve been working towards for years (regarding the filming for a tv opportunity I’ve been doing). My dream...just gone in a second. Disappointment. So much disappointment. But, the more I thought...maybe today actually was the perfect day for a reveal. To remind myself that I AM enough. That I don’t give up, and after I give myself some time, I’ll get back up and keep fighting for those dreams.
.
But for now, I’ll just be here.❤️

Really good or really bad idea...painting a million stars on my floor? I am still too tired to answer, but it’s DONE (swipe)🙌🏻! Not bad for $75 right? Do you know what this means?...it means we are wrapping up with the affordable bathroom reno this week! Who is excited? I’m excited🙌🏻.
.
Just curious, who now wants to OR is terrified to paint their floors?😂.

Seeing STARS⭐️ (swipe)? Yeah me too😂. I THINK this painted floor going to work, but I am still on the fence. I’ll share the rest of the process in stories...but my brain hurts😂.
.
Still trying time figure out: if my “grout” should be solid black or lighter...if I should fill in the stars to be totally black...if I am going to lose my mind😉...ha! (See stories!)

Take THAT textured tile!!! Finally figured out a way to paint a pattern on textured tile (swipe)...and have it turn out PERFECTLY with no bleed through. I feel like this totally changes the painting tile game🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻. (See stories). I can’t wait to see this floor come to life!
.
Now...to tape off the grout lines or no???

9 MONTHS. (Swipe). This space has taken as long as growing a baby😂, and it was almost as challenging too😉. TODAY the painted doors went in which finished (for now) this space. The mural wall, besta ikea hack, knock down stairs, rebuild stairs, new floor, new baseboard...and now DOORS. Progress is slow and often frustrating. I keep trying to remind myself of that, but somehow I still forget 😂. Still worth it for this view🙌🏻.
.
Can’t wait to get started on the floor in the bathroom (what color should I paint it?). Spoiler alert: I’m sure it’ll take me longer than I think and I’ll get frustrated😉. Stay tuned in stories.

THE DRAMA! Updating this vanity was more drama than I planned (see stories)🤦🏼‍♀️ #ivorypartner, but seeing this transformation makes me realize it’s all worth it. Right? And there is something fun about styling it out that makes me see a glimpse into the finish line of this project. I love these new @ivorysoap body washes and deodorants (and the pretty packaging😉). I always say fill your home with things that you love, and these new products are made with just that: everything you need, and nothing you don’t (made without aluminum, baking soda, parabens & phthalates).
.
Up NEXT...the FLOOR. And I’m planning on painting it🙌🏻

This is me testing the PEGS to see if they’ll stay😂. What do you think? I think they’ll hold😉. As an added bonus, pegs are way cuter and easier to use than a towel bar, so I am super pumped about this solution.🙌🏻
.
Now...do I paint them to match wall or stain to match the ceiling???
(See stories for how I built them today!)

WHAT MEDICINE CABINET??? (Swipe) It’s like it was neeeevvvvvvver there! Ha! I am feeling so smug about this whole process, and I hope you enjoyed the skim coating therapy in stories😉. It’s quite a process...rip out...cut drywall back, frame it out, put in new drywall, mud, mud again, mud again, texture...whew!
.
Are you team medicine cabinet OR rip that sucker out??? Would you attempt this after watching me do it???

300K😳🎉! What in the heck?! It took me 35 years to find my people...and YOU are my people! I am so proud of what we’ve built together over the past 2 years. I used to tell people I wanted to be a “home construction worker”, and they would give me the funniest looks😂. And now here we are (okay, so I STIll get funny looks😉)! I LOVE being here and am so grateful I get to do this with YOU ALL every day. What a dream. A messy dream😉, but my dream. Feeling grateful.
.
With my whole heart, THANK YOU! I am convinced this is most kind, supportive, fun, cheerleader, go getter, bad A, fearless, freaking awesome community out there. THANK you for being here, I love you guys❤️❤️❤️.

(And I will post a little behind the scenes tonight on what I DIDN’T want this account to be...)

THE COLOR. Do you trust me? (😂even if I realized mid picture that I was sitting on a toilet😬😂.) I know most of you wanted white, but I have a vision...and this perfect warm gray has the best green-blue undertones that are PERFECTLY complementing this ceiling rather than completing with it.
.
Also, see that sneak of the curtain? YOU ON BOARD yet? Still not offended if you aren’t. Feeling like a REBEL today anyways 😉. .

THE DOOR that started it all! 2 years ago THIS project was one of my first big projects that gave me the confidence to KEEP GOING. You know that feeling when you are WAY out of your comfort zone and it feels like your heart is in your throat and all the voices in your head are screaming “give up. You are way outa your league...”? I’m so glad I listened to that OTHER voice. The quiet one that kept telling me... “KEEP GOING...good things are ahead. Keep going.”
.
It’s funny where life takes you. I would have never imagined this as my future 10 years ago in the thick of our Autism therapy, foreclosed home, and life full of unknowns (I used to tell people “I just wanna be a home construction worker”😂). I am so grateful to be HERE now and be sharing it with all of you.

CEILING DONE! Do you think it pulls off the look I was going for (swipe)?! Personally, I think it rocks and can’t wait to see the rest of the space come together🙌🏻. Life’s timing is interesting: it’s funny how this is my first ceiling project, which meant I had to keep looking UP. My grandpa passed away a couple days ago, and I can’t be there for his funeral...but when I look UP, I remember he is there. The last few days I feel like as I look up, I can feel him and my family on the other side cheering me on and surrounding me. Even in isolation, I know I am not alone. So...don’t forget to look up❤️. You are not alone❤️.
.
Also, building things is my favorite😉💪🏻. Always.

AHHH CAN YOU SEE IT? (Swipe) First beam is up on my @amberinteriors inspired ceiling and all I can say is HECK YES. 1 beam down (or “line” as my 6 year old called it😉)...3 to go. Don’t miss stories as I finish it up!
.
What do you think? Pulling it off...or “YIKES paint that white”😉😂? I can handle the truth. Go!

EPIC before and after 4 years in the making. (swipe)! I searched for years for the perfect light that could handle basketballs and footballs hitting it, be the right scale (HUGE), and look gorgeous. It was worth the wait, don’t you think???
.
Also, I never get tired of a good before and after staircase😍

Instagram post 2286775306140610144_7303829380

Think I can pull off this wood beam ceiling look like the amazing @amberinteriors (swipe)??? I am still not sure😂, but I’m gonna try! Worst case scenario...I hate it and paint it white. Best case scenario...it looks freaking awesome and was only a couple hundred dollars😂🤷🏼‍♀️. (And yes, those seams will be covered with a beam😉).
.
What do you think??? Any chance it’ll work? Are you following song in stories for my magical stain combo?

WHO WANTS me to crash your house??? For real. When this dang quarantine is over, I am so busting OUTA HERE and making over another space. This laundry room makeover for my friend was so magical✨ (wait till reveal at the end!)
.
In the meantime, I will just be over at my house building and making over spaces! Follow along❤️❤️❤️

Who are you thankful for during this difficult time? THANK YOU______❤️. I did my BIGGEST EVER 8 ft #buildthanks sign to thank SO many frontline workers sacrificing so much for us (watch video to see us write who we are thankful for!) It was so much fun building this, and even more fun seeing all the neighbors as they pass and smile❤️. We can spread joy and gratitude, even amidst the fear and uncertainty. To spread more hope, I am going to donate $1000 to a charity of your choice! Post a comment below and tell me who YOU’RE thankful for and I will pick one (plus 5 gift card winners too). #lowespartner
.
Fill in the blank: THANK YOU______❤️.

I need your HELP: black or white windows? (See my electrical tape hack in stories🙌🏻?)
.
ALSO, I I need your help because I want you to join me a big “DIY thank you” to all the frontline heroes next week. When @loweshomeimprovement asked me if I wanted to join in a huge #BUILDTHANKS with DIYers everywhere to say THANK YOU, I said HECK yes...and I want you all do it with me! Here’s how: Starting Monday, April 6 (and through the next few weeks), build (with items you HAVE) and display outside a thank you for everyone to see. Who’s in? #lowespartner
