Like watching paint dry...

 I had an idea for a little something different in the Hall Bath. You know, one of those ideas that you can "see", but takes a little more effort to actually bring it all together... Well, yesterday I spent the better part of the day fiddling with this little project. I thought it might be done, but then it started nagging me 'cause it just wasn't "right". Do you know what I mean? I had everything cleaned up and put away, but I kept going back to it and I wasn't satisfied.


So while I'm waiting for the spackling to dry...





so I can repaint all the little nail holes I've made...
(grrrr...)



I'll just share these "teaser" images with you.



I'm lovin' how it's turning out, just what I wanted.
But let's just say, that I need to get this finished.



Hope you'll come back tomorrow for 
Vintage Inspiration Friday


maybe I'll have this put together...
or maybe not.

    Debra, you spackle and paint those holes? I just fill with caulk and ignore. I admire you!! Some day, maybe I'll be like you, if I can just make myself open the paint cans again.

    Isn't that just the most annoying thing. Hope you've figured it out and I know I can't wait to find out what you've been up to.

    I know the feeling...when something isn't just quite right. I love your bath though, it has such a European look to it!

    I have absolutely zero patience so I totally feel your pain about waiting to spackle and then paint. Can't wait to see the finished product though.
