finally finished...well nearly almost completely finished.....


when we moved into this house almost 5 years ago
it had one working washroom.
we have 2 daughters...
uh...not going to work for us...
so we found a way to turn a huge kitchen/dining area
into a kitchen, a hallway and a second washroom.
the washroom dimensions are tight
about 5x7
challenging, but do-able

so here's where the dresser fits into the story
(and the washroom)
it wouldn't have fit right if it had been even an inch more
it is perfect
additional storage, another surface
for their stuff and an extra mirror
(two girls)


here's a sweet shelf we picked up at the thrift shop
(i got to do some more spray painting)


cute flip flops...hey it's summertime in Muskoka!


between these two girls
we could open a shop...
lots of pretty little bits
this stand will help keep them from going missing



i love this enamel pot
theses girls sure go through the face clothes
and this is so handy sitting on the vanity counter


this project lasted a few years
but sometimes it's worth the wait
to make it exactly what you need
(still have a sparkly chandelier to install)
...so there you have it...
our small and cozy shabby cottage washroom
