I am apparently still being a bit lame arsed when it comes to posting. Lack of motivation and lack of time, not lack of cool things to post about, trust me.
I am back at home after my month long holiday at Mum's. I'm still trying to wrap my head around having to do things like cook for myself again - it sure doesn't take long to get completely spoiled. And why am I back home? BECAUSE MY AWESOME BATHROOM IS DONE!! My photos are far from awesome really, but they give you an idea. And if you look back at this you will see how far things have come. I'm not completely finished yet - I foresee a wall cabinet in the near future, and a few other bits and bobs. My home away from home at the moment is (unfortunately) Restoration Hardware...$ka-ching, $ka-ching. I unfortunately have a soft spot for polished nickel fixtures.
I can't believe what a difference it makes to have a bathroom you actually enjoy being in. A bathroom with ONE door, not three...and tile, not a poorly laid vinyl nightmare.
And as an aside, this has been proof to me that non-nightmarish contractors DO exist.
As I sit here, there is a plumber in my bathroom replacing my bath's intake pipes with stupidly expensive chrome ones. My bank account and I are the only ones that will notice, I know - unless of course you hang sideways off my toilet and look behind the tub. It's the little things....
And in other news, I saw the absolutely phenomenal Joanna Newsom last week. This video doesn't do the gig justice at all - but it was the best I could do under the high-security situation. Such a talented performer, supported by an incredibly tight band. And you've got to love the harp - it is such a physically demanding instrument, and it's just odd enough to completely transfix me. Undoubtedly one of the best concerts I've seen - and thank you Vogue for being such a great venue for quieter acts like this.
And unfortunately I have had to enable comment moderation on this blog...grrr to all you Asian spam sites! I CURSE YOU!!

The bathroom looks BEYOND fantastic!! I promise to lean over and notice the new pipes too. (and yes, I too am having the same issue with the spam).
It's gorgeous - love love the tile and wainscoting! Are you going to do one of those shower curtains that forms a full ring around the bath?
Thanks!! Already done Jennie (the shower ring that is...) :)
