Trust in the LORD with all your HEART. Lean not unto your own understanding, but acknowledge him in all thy ways and he will direct your path.

COTTAGE UPDATE.......BATHROOM PEEK-A-BOO

Turning the corner, coming together!  Here is a peek-a-boo look at the first room almost complete!  It's the small (5 x 8) bathroom.....yeah!
The new cast iron claw tub is perfect for my "soakings" by candle-light!  The tub is only 54" long but feels great! The hand held shower head has to be put on the faucet ensemble yet.



This is the Martha Stewart vanity we purchased.  The vanity color is "sharkey gray" and I painted the bead board "picket fence".  These are Martha Stewart colors.
As you can see, the hardware isn't finished being put on the vanity and the electrical covers have to go on too.  The toilet or should I say "commode" is being installed tomorrow as well as the wall light.
The tile floor is a small octagon style and is white.  I love it's vintage look!



This bathroom is coming together nicely.  I will show another reveal when it's all together with decorating!  It's a very hard room to photograph because it's so small.
We were hoping to move in June but looks like it will be July or maybe later.  We have so much yet to do on the outside but aren't worried about that right now.



I wish I had more to show you...."finished".  There has been so much small unseen work that takes time.
The outside cedar shakes have been oil stained and did you notice the original wavy cedar wood over the large front window?  It has been stained brown.  We are currently working on the front door and new white trim will go up and be painted over the next month.  The concrete WILL BE REMOVED very soon~~YES!
Hopefully, in about 2-4 weeks, I can show another room(s) coming together.
We are having beautiful weather this week and I thank the Lord for that and I welcome it with open arms!

But for you who fear my name, the Sun of Righteousness will rise with healing in his wings, And you will go free, leaping with joy like calves let out to pasture.    Malachi 4:2

  2. I LOVE the tub! It's so neat! I love the color selections as well. xoxo I almost selected the same vanity, but it was a little too wide to fit between the tub and shower without moving pipes.

  3. It is lovely. I am a fan of Martha Stewart paint...we will be painting our front door and shutters in a Martha Stewart grey (cement grey or driftwood grey) soon. Your sweet little cottage is coming along and it is so exciting.

  6. Charming little bathroom. Just perfect for book reading, while taking a long soak!
    Love the vanity.. it's quite cute, and country, and very cottage-y!!

    The outside looks quite charming as well. The white trim really sets off the dark stain on the shakes. Cute little wavy boards above the window.
    It's those little details that make your cottage just as cute as can be.

    Enjoy this beautiful day :)
