Woo hoo! We're in the home stretch, I saved my ugliest, scariest diy for last,
I kept debating whether or not to do it. So far I've only prepped for a few hours,
and haven't pulled the trigger yet. (I'll give you a peek at the end.)

As my reward for thinking about tackling the ugly project,
I had fun making decisions about everything else I could think of this week!

This has taken a month for me to decide.
Can anyone relate to my little binge before the purge.
Gray rug or tan rug, flat rug or fluffy rug, pattern rug, solid rug,
natural fiber rug, cozy cotton rug??
natural fiber rug, cozy cotton rug??
White towels, Cream towels, Pattern towels, Monogram towels??
Swing arm lamps, clean and simple or a little detail?
Notice the Roman Shade...new and improved folds ...done!
A package arrived from the talented Kerry! :)
Gold frames, black frames??

Gave the trim a fresh coat of paint.
So, some of you thought this was our powder room, the truth is it's a main bath that
two of us use, and the shower surround, and fixtures couldn't be prettier. I'm going to
paint the sink and tub faucets and shower surround. I still want them gold, just not
this super shiny 90's look!
The caulking has to be removed or you don't get a nice clean paint line.
If you don't want to disassemble the shower, this is the deal.
Keep your fingers crossed, and if it looks like a powder room next week,
just go with it! :)
Go see what my fabulous friends have been up to this week!

You are so brave to paint that. You know I would paint almost anything, but you are upping the ante on that baby. Good luck. Yes, I take home the store and then return most of it.
Wow, I didn't know you could paint that! Can't wait to see!
Looks good..looking forward to seeing the big result!
I can wait to see how this turns out and how you paint the shower and fixtures! - Susan
Oh my gosh - that is a big DIY but I know you can tackle it! Everything looks so great - the shade, swing arm lamps, all the accessories to choose from! Can't wait for the big reveal!!
Everything will come together beautifully!
all those yummy textures and choices! I know what you mean! You just have to try them all and it hopefully will "speak" to you! You have great taste so I know it will be fabulous. Good luck with the shower door painting--you can do it, I know you can!

oooh looks like a lot of work, but it will be worth it! and i am a fan of the soft cozy shaggy rugs for bathrooms! love the grays!
Cannot wait to see what this looks like Love the pattern mix you are using. This is going to look incredible!
Good luck!! :)
Thanks for the intro to a new artist - I can't wait to check out her work and see which one you chose. Out of all of those decisions the one thing I do like is the clean white shade on the sconce. That's all I can decide on today :)
Oh, I'm so glad you're tackling this. I have a feeling I'm going to need the tutorial one day. Here's to hoping it goes/went smoothly!
So many fun decisions!
Can't wait to see that shower door makeover!
Choices, oh the choices. They stall me every time!
OOOh there is lots still going on in there...anxious to see what you pull together! How exciting to have a piece from Kerry!
Love the chevron patterned rug at top. Could you give the source?
You can paint faucets?? Learn something new every day!
My parents bathroom growing up was that lovely pink fifties tile that had a black tile trim. My mom painted out all the black with a metallic gold-also had no idea you could do that, but she did. Of course, this is the same mom that took a sledgehammer to a wall because my dad was a little slow on getting some work done!!
You are one ambitious lady - why don't you come help me with some of my house projects I keep putting off? Pretty please??!
Oh you know I relate to the binge and purge- unable to decide until I see it in the room. I love all of the options. You are so ambitious- the prep work looks like quite a chore but I'm sure it will be worth it. Good luck!
So many choices. Can't wait to see it all done!
Anonymous ~ the chevron rug is from West Elm.
Can't wait to see the bathroom makeover next week! Good luck!

I can't believe you can do all of that! I can't wait for next week:)
Wow - you are busy...and so many choices! Can't wait to see next week!

It's the final stretch! I am so in awe of you
For all the work you have done and accomplished in 6 short weeks. I know it will all come together and be beautiful for the reveal- small bathroom or not! ;)
I can't wait to see how your shower turns out. I have the same 90's gold and have been debating about whether to change it or not since brass is coming back in a big way. What product are you using to paint it? I would love to find a good brushed gold look that's a little more subtle than the bright shiny gold of the 90's!
I hope the shower goes as planned! And I hear ya with the indecisiveness-I've been trying to make a rug selection for my home for at least a month ;)
Only one more week! I think everything is looking fabulous. Fingers crossed the shower turns out just as you want it to.
Wow...decisions, decisions! I can't wait for next Wednesday.
I am voting "trim" on all challenges today!! I love the pop it gives your lights!! Oh boy, I just had someone else re-grout our shower ... I should have consulted you first!! xo
Wow are you ambitious! All of that tape makes me tired just looking at it but I am sure this is going to be one drop-dead space.
I think it's going to look great! Good luck-I can't wait to see it!
Seriously? That is an ambitious project, Pam! Good luck getting it all done - sure I will love it - I love everything you do!

Oh I agree...so many decisions. What an undertaking to paint the shower surround. You're doing great!
Wow, you have been one busy gal!
Loving it! Can't wait to see how the paint technique turns out!!
You are painting a shower surround? I can't imagine? How do you paint the facets and trim work around the stall? You amaze me!
Oh, the suspense!!! Can't wait til next week.
OH MY. You are truly an ambitious lady! I can't wait to see it!
You have quite the DIY! Wishing you all the best! Can't wait to see it.
Wow Pam! So many decisions .. it's all coming together and I can't wait to see the end result!

Girl, you are one brave mama! Cant wait to see what you will be doing next..
Wow, so many decisions. I can't wait to see how your shower surround comes out. You just can't be stopped! Go girl!
OMG! That's my exact shower and tile! I have switched out the faucet, shower head and towel bars but have not the actual shower.. I really want to gut the whole thing but can't afford to so it's stayed this way for 5 years now:(
I will wait anxiously to see how yours turns out and them maybe I'll finally tackle it.
Decisions, decisions! You are so talented ~ I know it's going to be gorgeous when you finish. Can't wait to see the shower surround in its new style.

I am with Luci, that's our exact same shower surround. I have changed the little things, but would love to see how this turns out! How amazing! I also love the trim added to the sconce shade. I know this room will be fabulous!
It cracks me up whenever I encounter a client who thinks there are no design decisions in a small bathroom. I think this post proves otherwise! Looking fantastic. I Love that patterned rug. Prob not with your shades, but it sure is pretty.
Well, I have to admit..I thought it was your powder room as we were only seeing the sink area as a sneak peek...i must have missed something..somewhere!....I know I get myself in a total "design paralysis" when I have too many choices...I know that you will chose the perfect things...your taste is impeccable...and good luck on the painting of the shiny brass...looks like a lot of work!!
Oh my, you're tackling the surround and faucets with paint? I've always been afraid to do that. You're getting to the fun part with all of the finishing touches. Can't wait!
Their aesthetic appeal is very endearing and to have a luxurious look a superb storage will tick many boxes when considering a new bathroom design or refurbishment. We are often asked to provide decent quality, hard wearing and attractively finished bathrooms for "buy to let" clients, young families and first time home buyers on a limited budget.
