Renovation/design is a lot about choices. You have to make them. You have to research and think, and imagine, and overthink them. Will this be the RIGHT tile, the RIGHT wallpaper, the RIGHT fixture? Will I love it as much in my space as I do online? Can I pull that off? What if I hate it? It’s so permanent. Choices. Brandon and I don’t really have unlimited funds to just change our minds left and right like a lot of other “decorator/design accounts” can. Decisions are a bit more stressful and permanent around here. Also, who wants to paint walls more than they need to? We have made that mistake before. Anyways, just wanted to pop on and tell you guys that these decisions are hard for even people that you consider to be masters at design + decor. There are plenty of choices that I’ve made that I regret and you’ll probably make some of those too. But you just have to learn from them. And although your gut is probably right, still consider other options 😘.
Feeling accomplished as heck 💪🏼. Unless you have actually drywalled yourself, you probably won’t truly appreciate this BEFORE + AFTER. But damn I am proud of us. It may have taken us 5 plus times of doing it to really nail a technique, but all I have to say is “WHAT PATCH JOB?”. If you were to ask me “what has been the single handed hardest renovation task to date?” Hands down the answer would be, drywall finishing. We removed the closet in this bedroom to make it larger and add a doorway to enter our master bath. (And no, you don’t need a closet in a room to be considered a bedroom in WI). And even though our bathroom project has come to a screeching halt because CORONA, we are making big progress in the bedroom. Can’t wait to style the heck out of it 🙌🏼
