They look marvelous with my bakery style kitchen!!

Here is a peek at my kitchen window. I get in these phases where I want it all cleared away and open, and then I decide it looks too empty and start filling it up again!!

Maybe I'll add more stuff this summer.

Pink Saturday is so great!! All the blogs that I browse through and everything looks so pretty.

I know I spend way too much time on the computer as it is, but then the weekend rolls around and I just can't stop checking in at

Cheap bathroom redo

I know I haven't posted in a long time!! I just don't think I have anything interesting to say sometimes. I am on my blog daily and read other blogs daily as well.

The kids are all home for summer and we have been cleaning, decluttering and organizing the house. What started out as a my husband cleaning the bathroom floor turned out to be a nice weekend project!!!

I told DH please clean the floors and he decided it was just easier to tear them apart and put a new floor down. Then as he was doing that, I suggested we use what was left over from our beadboard wallpaper kitchen project to do the walls in the bathroom. So we put that up and added the chair rail and painted it all white. Looks great!! Looks like real beadboard too!!

So as we got that finished I decided to do the countertops as well like we had in the kitchen, We used laminate tile and it looks great!! My DH glues them down so they don't move!!

I love the way it looks!!! And it was done for under 10.00$$ !!!

The shower curatin was found on amazon for 14.99 and the Ikea light fixture also an amazon find for 14.99. I love the halogen lights!!!

I am super excited about the bathroom and love how we did it so cheap!! In a perfect world I would have gutted the whole bathroom, but time and money are not abundant right now!!

Oh and how do you love my kitty, Snap? For some reason she wont leave the bathroom, and I;m not about to disagree with a 17 year old kitty!!! LOL

Enjoy your summer!!

Nothing says welcome like.....

A red front door!!! I wanted to paint the door red for a while now and we finally got around to doing it! I love it!! It really stands out now and is such a nice contrast against the white house. I'm so happy we did it! So come on in and see the sweet Mother's Day gifts I got from the family.

Yummy cake!! Even though I am now on a diet, it sure was nice to enjoy a piece of this cake!

And the balloon and huge card! My oldest is know for her big handmade cards and I look forward to them for every ocassion!!

They put such a smile on my face!!

And this here is from my youngest daughter. Her class put on a very lovely Mother's day brunch.

It was so sweet and I really love the handmade cards and gifts. It is something I appreciate and treasure forever!! That's why I love Mother's Day so much!!

Thank you for stopping over for another Pink Saturday!!

Pink Saturday!! Yeah!!!!

Welcome to Pink Saturday here at whinenroses blog. I decided to jump on in and participate in Pink Saturday. I just want my posts to be pink and pretty and hope all who visit think so too.

We are getting ready for Easter here and putting a few things out here and there.

I made the feather boa tree several years ago. It matches with my feather wreath that hangs on the front door.

Hopefully the Easter bunny will find us !!

We planted all new azealases this year and I look forward to many beautiful blooms for years to come. It has been getting cold here in FL these past few winters so rather than cover plants and hope they survive, we planted all cold hardy plants. We even got the Encore Azealeas that bloom throughtout the year, not just once!

I want to thank Beverly for hosting another great pink Saturday.

I can't wait to see what everyone has got in store for us pink lovers out there!

Please visit Beverly at

Have a wonderful weekend!!

Hugs,

The bunny will be here soon!

I finally got around to putting some easter decorations up. Just a few things. Some wreaths, pink eggs, and a few bunnies here and there. The kids love to add the wondow clings to the front door. I let them decorate that! We've been working hard on more projects. We got the rest of the beadboard panels up in our foyer. That was part of our 25.00 craigslist find back in august. It looks great in the foyer too and eventually we will do the living room too. Little by little. I would love to do more with the beadboard wallpaper, but I have textured walls. Thats limets me to what I can do with it. We also added some thin molding on the door that leads out to our garage. It is a big heavy wood door and I really like it, but too plain. The cost of a new door is just not in the budget right now. So we bought some molding for 5.00 a piece (we needed 2) and hubby used liquid nail to glue it on the door. Looks great!!! Above the doors we added thick molding and rosettes. Too bad even with all the custome wood and decor our house is still not worth much!!! This weekend we are taking the kids to see the easter bunny for pics. I managed to bribe...uh.. I mean talk the girls into getting the pic for thier baby brothers first Easter!!! We'll see who cries this year...probably me!! Hugs, Jenn
