Ever have one if those projects where you wonder if it's worth the effort? Well the kids' bath is turning out to that way. Energized by the encouraging comments you all left on my last bathroom update, I headed out to look for mercury glass knobs for the vanity.
I managed to scout out some luminescent lovelies on an end cap at HomeGoods. I happily scooped them up, brought them home and ran upstairs to try them out.
They were proportion perfection. The chunky nobs anchored the vanities and elevated them from shabby to chic (see you all know your stuff). I was thrilled.
Until this happened.
YoU'vE. GoT. tO. Be. KiDdInG!!!!
I stood there for a moment giving serious consideration to making the drawer on the right inoperable. After all it is just the baby's drawer and he doesn't have all that much stuff.
Once I came back to reality and accepted that the aforementioned slacker solution isn't viable, I started to brainstorm. Into my mind popped this image.
Hello mudroom cabinets! A quick swap and we are back in business. And I still can not believe that at HomeGoods I was able to locate the same knobs I purchased nearly one year ago.
I'm taking it as a sign that this project is meant to be. I'm looking forward to smooth sailing from here on out. (And for all you wondering, the paint has been removed from hinges and thanks for tolerating these subpar iPhone pics. My camera has been acting up lately.)
Woohoo that looks awesome and what luck at home goods!!
ReplyDeleteI have not had much luck this summer at HomeGoods. Perhaps I should make a trip there soon!
