Condo Anniversary

It has now been just a little over a year since we bought our condo. This time last year we were ripping carpet out, painting, tiling, beadboarding, cleaning and the works. We worked so hard to get all the work done. Since then we have done a few more things to decorate and make the place our own. I have already recently posted pictures of our living room and spare room (which we call Easton's room because our first born son will be named Easton. I figure calling it Easton's room is a good way to jinx us into having a girl first ;)).Here are pictures of our bedroom and bathroom.

So I absolutely love HGTV. I love the creative ideas, the design, the colors... pretty much everything about the design shows. Especially design on a dime. I have also been really liking yellow and gray lately... so I decided to do our bathroom those colors. Luckily, our bathroom was already yellow (KC picked out the paint last year... and if you are wondering if our bathroom is really THAT bright, don't worry... it is). So I started with getting a yellow and gray shower curtain, then for my jewerly holder all I had to do was put gray fabric behind. The artwork got a little more tricky. I had my mom make me these flowers out of yarn and the only thing left to design is the arrangment on the canvas (that I covered with the same gray fabric I used for my jewerly thingy). I prefer the 7 flowers hanging down, Casey prefers the three flowers in the corner. What do you think?







I really love how our bedroom turned out. I love the colors and I love the bedspread. I am also proud of our window treatment...I was planning on making my own so I went to joanns and looked at thier "blackout" fabric(had to be blackout for the 1 day a week KC and I can sleep in). At half-price, to get enough fabric for our windows it would have cost 80 bucks! So then I Ross, Target and TJ max. No luck. Then I went to walmart and for 10 dollars for each panel (total of 20) for black-out we had our window treatment! I just had to tac them a bit it make them fit right, but they are the perfect color and I was thrilled! However, from doing this post I realized our bedroom could use a little more artwork on the walls!
