Bathroom Cabinet
This is from Restoration Hardware. I finally got all the bathroom stuff back into the bathroom last week. Now I need to shop for some better looking baskets.
You can also see the tile on the floor really well in this picture. It's been scrubbed and sealed now and it's beautiful! I'm really happy about the choice of limestone here.
New Laundry Closet
Wall Paper was structural
After pulling down the pink striped wallpaper, much of the ceiling plaster came down with it. Ed got an opportunity to learn how to patch large holes in plaster. He did a really good job. Good to practice on a closet first!

New laundry closet
A while we are at it project... Since the plumbing was going through this closet, we decided it would be really nice to move the washer/dryer from the basement to this closet in my study. Electrical was added as well.
Well, before we move in the washer and dryer, we decided paint and shelves were in order so I just spent the day unwallpapering (hint: fabric softener + water melts wallpaper glue). There were 2 layers on the bottom half and 1 on the type. Nothing but plaster underneath, which is good. The bad news, however, is that some of the ceiling plaster was being held up there with the pink striped paper. So Ed will repair that today and maybe we can prime it tomorrow and paint it Monday (that's what holiday weekends are for, right?
