I have a bridal shower this weekend for a friend of our family, so my sister and I have been working on getting ready for that. We are in charge of the desserts part of the shower, which frankly is my utmost favorite part! I have also made quite a few printables and have to make the cake, cookies, and truffles for it so I will share all of the photos after the shower, in case the bride-to-be peeks in and reads this. ;-)
On the DIY front, Dustin and I have picked up the wood for the kids bathroom project, the 3 shower curtains have been hemmed and sewn together to create two really long ones. Now to figure out if I can find a plastic liner online that is as long as the shower curtains or as close to it as I can get. If you by chance know of anywhere that sells longer shower curtain liners please share your wisdom.
Last night, I went on www.art.com to order the artwork for the kids bathroom and they are currently having a 20% off Sale through tomorrow the 20th so I went ahead and purchased it.

With the discount I got the 25 x25 in. print for around $43. I really wanted to get the stretched canvas print, but for the 24 x 24 canvas it is $189 and I don't have it in my budget to go that high for the artwork, so when it arrives, I will be doing a little DIY mod podge canvas treatment to give it a similar look. I love the saying on it: Dreams Are DIY Projects. Out of a few options, my kids picked this one for their bathroom. They are absorbing our DIY lifestyle :0)
Another thing I did last night was hum and ha over tile for the house. I want the tile to be the same style in the mudroom as well as the bathrooms and laundry room. I love the 12 x 24 for the mudroom and the smaller tile for the other spaces, but choosing just the right one to go with what I envision in my head is the hard part. Oh and whatever I choose has gotta be cheap!
Here are my tile choices...
I am leaning towards the Avila Ceramic Tile in Gris Porcelain or the Mitte Gray Glazed Porcelain. Do you have a fav out of the bunch? Now I am off to choose the exact Navy blue that I will be painting my kids bathroom cabinet with. Be back soon to see what you think of the ones I find!
