Well, our little man turned one and with his party being held late Saturday afternoon, it made for a crazy & fun-filled Memorial Day weekend! The festivities began when our families arrived in on Friday, which was my mother-in-law’s birthday. We cooked dinner at home and then spent all day Saturday prepping for his little / big event! I will be posting party pics at some point this week to show you how we celebrated safari-style 🙂
I have shared my basement bathroom inspiration and my basement bathroom design board, but realized I haven’t posted any actual progress photos yet! If you follow me on instagram then you saw that the tile installation began today – woo hoo! I thought drywall made a difference, but man…once you have a little something on the floor besides cement, it really starts to feel like a livable space.
Here is a bit of the transformation that has taken place over the last few weeks.
Week 1: Insulation
Week 2: Framing / Electrical / Plumbing
I still have to finish taking photos of last week’s progress of the trim & door installation, but wanted to give you a glimpse of what has been going on behind the scenes. It doesn’t look like much and of course, you don’t know the layout yet, but I will be sure to give you the full scoop soon.
We are still a loooong ways off from looking anything like the gorgeous spaces I used as design models, but since tile & painting will be completed this week, I think next week’s progress pics will look dramatically different and much prettier 🙂
Tomorrow there will be plenty of more eye candy to feast your eyes on when I share the look I am going for in the basement bar area – come back and check it out! Thursday, we’ll rewind back to my guestroom revamp project and I will dish on the headboard makeover. You’ll never guess what I used to upholster it with!!
