Super Cute (half bath)

This may end up being one of the cutest half baths ever!  Maybe I'm just partial because it's my design...but there's something about it that I just love.  I worked on caulking the baseboard in there today.  Kade got the sink/vanity all put together.  I just LOVE the way it looks.

This sink is an oldie but a goody.  You wouldn't believe how deep the actual bowl is.

And the best part...it only cost me $50!

The faucet was a bit of a splurge....and I'm pretty sure it's amazing, lol.

It operates so smoothly and it looks so old fashioned.

It's got the hot/cold labels on the handles

(that Kade originally put in there backwards, lol)

The faucet is a gooseneck type.  Best of all though...

It actually has water coming out of it!!!  Our first actual working sink.

 

Here's the sewing table base.  I still can't believe how well this sink fit on top of it.

We are going to have to switch the drain though...it's a pull up now, and we've got to put in a pop-up.  There's just not enough room behind this old sink for the pull up mechanism on the current drain.

Toilet all plumbed in with it's oil rubbed bronze supply line.

Adorable.

(wait...should a toilet actually be adorable?)

Lastly...how you flush the toilet.  So funny.  Blue for #2 everyone...blue for #2 :)

More of the same...

Just lots of little stuff.  Where did all of this little, never ending stuff come from??  On the bright side...the faucet came for my special half bath sink.  Remember it?

I still love it!

Isn't it cool?  3 individual pieces...very "vintage" looking!

This is actually the second faucet that I've purchased, lol.  The first one didn't even come close to working!  Everything happens for a reason...because this one I actually LOVE...the first one was just...'eh...o.k.  Now Im really want to get this show on the road so I can see it IN PLACE!!  COME ON!!!  Why are we so slow??  (Maybe because there's only two of us + the occasional Dad working??)

Concrete Day!

FINALLY!!  We got the giant hole in the basement floor filled!  Man...it was hot today too....and so humid!  (of course it was, did we expect it to be nice, breezy and perfect for concrete pouring??) lol!

 

Kade ran the concrete mixer, Dad hauled in the wheelbarrows and Dad and I organized and worked on the finishing.  This is not a good job for a perfectionist!!

We were all ready...had it filled in with rock last night!  YES!

It will be so nice to no longer have to mind the big gaping hole in the floor!!

It only took a few loads before they had a good mix going!

EXCITING, lol!

Look at that!  NO HOLE!!!

Beautiful! (well, as beautiful as concrete can be!)

We were all done by lunch time!  I couldn't believe it!  So this afternoon we worked on finishing it and then I had a genius idea (or so I think!!)  I've still been searching for a vanity for the half bath...but not having any luck.  I'm just not a regular cabinet kind of girl  :)  So my wheels have been spinning.

 Remember when I bought the peg leg sink and forgot the peg leg at the store?

Well here's how I think I'm going to use it!

That would be the base to my Grandma Pape's old sewing table.  She apparently sat her plants on it and watered them!!  Needless to say...this is all that's left (well...this, and a few of the drawers which I intend to use at some point too!)  I can't believe they actually fit together so well!  Kade's not as much of a fan as I am....he's a little worried about it having enough support...so I might have to have someone weld me an extra support or something....I'll figure it out!!

I LOVE IT!!  That is SO MY STYLE!!

See...sometimes my brain can come up with some cool stuff!
