Lo and Behold…Our Bath…at Lowe’s!

So I am at our local Lowes Hardware looking at pink paint…see previous post

and grab a mag…as I wait in line and…

There is our bathroom!

In all of it’s handmade glory

The cashier didn’t seem too interested…::::yawn::::

Even my kids were like…hmm…cool. in a totally non excited voice when I showed them…

then kept on watching baseball. priorities. harumph.

Well…I was excited...

.a big thank you to Better Homes and Garden’s Kitchen + Bath makeovers

and Becky…writer/stylist extraordinaire!

Maybe if I go tell Honey the hamster…I’ll find some excitement.

Because that is how this whole thing started…the little bugger escaped… got caught in the

wall from when we were tearing out the other bathroom

travelled all the way in the wall to the other end of the house…where days later we found

him scratching away at the wall. What could we do? But tear out the wall to save the hamster...

and start creating a new bath. no dummie here

No Hamsters were harmed…Honey went on to live a long (ish) happy life.

Check out the mag…especially if you are doing some re-muddling.

I was told our other bathroom remodel where Honey escaped into... will be in the Winter issue.
