We decided to use some simple string tied to two small screws on either end of the room and used a marker to draw our line using the string as our guide. Next, we found the center point of the room and because the underlayment is blue creating a chalk line was not going to work. This stuff comes in rolls and is super easy to install. We started by laying a Dural backer lite underlayement with thin-set for our tile to rest on. This was our first time laying tile in this pattern and all I can say was that I wish we had tried it sooner. With the 4×12″ Hampton Carrara tile the herringbone was very easy to do and went down quite quickly. For the the main bathroom area I wanted a herringbone pattern. We finished them up last night and it’s such a relief. Now to our finished floors! We had hoped to have had the flooring done a couple weeks ago but we got it a little later than planned. I think it’s the right about of color and pattern. This room lacks any natural sunlight so I didn’t want it to be too busy or dark. I love the pattern and the soft blue tones. It took around two weeks to arrive and was packed very well. Shipping was very responsible too at only $9 for two rolls. They’re beyond kind and such a pleasure to business with. I had the pleasure of speaking with one of Cabbages and Roses’ employees about shipping dates and if I could expect in time for the reveal. Last week the wallpaper for our water closet arrived from London and I just love it! It’s just as pretty in person as it was online. Now that we’re in the home stretch of our renovation I can see the light at the end of the long tunnel and I know it’s all going to come together beautifully.

I just haven t been able to find enough hours in the day.

I have so many recipes, projects and of course my office reveal that I’ve eagerly been waiting to share. I feel like our regular schedule has been wrecked this past month. Due to all of the chaos I haven’t been able to share much inspiration on the blog lately and I’ve hated that. It has felt like the odds were against us for the entire month of April. Let’s face it, if you’re going to forget to close the sunroof it has to be during a storm! We spent hours sucking up water with a shop vac and drying the seats out to then have my computer crash days later followed by my husband’s computer doing similar things. Josh’s car died on us unexpectedly, our hot water heater started leaking, I left the sunroof to our van open two weeks ago overnight during a monsoon of a rain fall. In that time we’ve had a lot of unforeseen things pop up. All this time we’ve been living in dust, sharing Charlie’s bathroom and spending evening and weekends working to complete the space. If you remember, we started demo of our dated bathroom on February 1st. There has been road blocks at every turn and has taken more time to complete than we ever thought it would. This remodel has been one of our largest and more challenging. I’m exhausted, emotionally drained and feeling a little worse for wears. I can’t believe that I’ll be sharing the reveal of our master bathroom with you all this time next week! Time has flown by and I’ll be completely honest with you.
