Penny Tile

I love this bathroom tile so much... I hate trying to get a decent in the bathroom! It doesn't help that one springer spaniel chewed off my flash... Eff!

We tried to keep this awesome flooring. It just couldn't be revived. Sad day! I saw a beautiful bathroom done by Alice lane that used rectangular, square and navy penny round tile. It was beautiful. I used the basic idea but changed it a bit for my liking. I used mint penny round tile that I found on overstock.com. And then trimmed out the penny round tile with a beaded trim tile from lowes.

Oh I love it so!

This was a during shot.

 

And an overly enhanced photo because of the terrible lighting.

Crazy in love with this bathroom.

About the details... No loud accents, just texture.

I want to take this bathroom home with me.

 

 

 

Downington Ave...

Let me just preface this by saying these pictures aren't great. I keep running out of time to get there when there is good lighting... I'm going to try and get there early tomorrow for some bathroom shots.

But oh the tile! I found the most beautiful grey tile named pumice. It looks like it is hand glazed. The pictures just don't do it justice. But wow!

Against the white shaker cabinets it's dynamite.

This picture is a little better at showing the variations on the tile. Subtle but so lovely.

 

Getcha from every angle.

 

Went with a little lower wainscot trim in this house. Gives the paint color a little more room to shine.

And. The. Chandelier... I luff it so!

I'm about to bombard you with some glamour shots of this light fixture...

In all of its spherical chandelier glory!

I mean.. Get. Real. It's amazing.

I will take you home...

The light that it throws is just amazing! Buy this house! If only for the light!

Love!

I think Valentine decor is my favorite to decorate for. I love it so much I start in January. 14 days in February just isn't enough...

The XOXO pendant from target is still one of my favorite decorations.

It is still January so I left my New Years decor up and just added to it... Closer to February I have plans to swap them out.

I kind of like the idea of tweaking my mantle instead of a total overhaul. Just swapped out the Christmas art and exchanged the anthropologie knock off snow globes with my winter village. I collected these little houses from Savers and then spray painted them white and added white glitter on top of the snow. Love! Then stuck two of them in apothecary jars for some height.

These nooks give me decorating anxiety. They are too deep and tall... It's a feet to get the proportions right without making it look too crazy.

I brought out my four shades of lipstick and went to town on a sheet of white paper. Then layered that on butcher paper and stick it in my spray painted frame. Found these teacups at Savers and I'm dying to find the entire china set. The geese measuring cups were a 'treat yourself' purchase when anthropologie had its winter sale! $12! What?!

I might need to call this the year of the silhouette. I got a Silhouette Cameo for Christmas and I'm smitten. I made these tickets from glitter paper and they are darling. Accented by anthropologie latte bowls. I die.

It was looking too busy in these nooks so I wrapped my cook books in brown paper which is actually floor cover from Home Depot. A super cheap option that will probably last me my entire life.

When anthropologie stuff goes in sale 75% off you end up with two sets of animal measuring cups. And I luff them all!

Happy Valentine's Day!
