Ryan’s started a large project in week 37, of which he’s still in the midst. I hesitate to share anything at this point, but that’s not my style. So, here’s your sneak peak.
Being Superman, Ryan also tied up some other loose ends this week.
Lighting.
This light fixture in the dining room is my new favorite. Doesn’t it just ‘go’ with the room? I didn’t know Ryan had already put it up and I squealed when I walked into the room.
It’s a hand-me-down from my in-laws.ย I swear I didn’t know that they would give it to us if I mentioned that I wanted one just like it for our dining room. Pinky. Promise. If I had, I’d have brought it up sooner. ๐ It also has shades, but I like it as is (for now).
Bathroom vanity installed.
We finally received the new faucet from Vintage Tub. I’m kind of obsessed with it. It’s super heavy, and feels well-made.ย
It really mirrors the look of the tub fixtures, too. Not exact, but similar.
In our minds, the bathroom is ‘finished.’ Sure, we need to put in light switch covers and I need to seal the tub, clean and decorate a bit, but we could really move in tomorrow and have a lovely bathroom to use. So, it’s ‘done’ to all intents and purposes.ย
But not so fast! Lots more on the docket. This long holiday weekend will be filled with painting for me and woodworking for him. Wish us luck.

Ohhhh I can’t wait to see how that ceiling comes out! The details you guys are putting into that house are going to make it amazing. Does it feel awesome to have a room “done”?

Carrie @ Hazardous Design says
You guys are making amazing progress. Doesn’t it feel so good to cross projects off the list? I’m jealous of every single detail in that bathroom. And that light fixture is PERFECT in your dining room. What lovely in-laws you have!

A floor on the ceiling? CRAAAAAzy! You guys are out of hand with the awesomeness. And granted I know Ryan is quite a bit younger than John and we’ve got the wee one and all but can Ryan puh-lease teach John some get-shit-doneness? He’s clearly a master at it.
Oh and the crisp whiteness of the shower tile just makes me happy.

Kim, this is really starting to come together! LOVE the light fixture in the dining room!
Also.. the medicine cabinet and the lights in the bathroom– where did you get them?

Love everything – the ceiling is very cool. Are those the price phister faucets? My mom is advising against the two knobs for the shower because they won’t have a mixing value. She raises a good point – if we’re doing it from scratch then we should go with the “technology” to avoid scalding when someone flushes upstairs. We’ll see, they’re definitely on the list for the upstairs bathroom.
Amanda @ Serenity Now says
That bathroom is simply stunning!! I just can’t get over that great flooring. ๐ Can’t wait to see what’s gonna happen with the ceiling. ๐
Allison says
I love everything about this post. When should I be ready to move in with you, Ryan and the puggers? :^)
Megg says
How good does it feel to have one room done?? I’m LOVING this and I always look forward to your renovation updates! (Yes, I’m lame like that!)
April Robinson says
Everything looks like it is coming along great. Is that flooring on the ceiling or wood paneling? Or something else? It looks like it’s going to be amazing.

I’m very curious about what is going on on your ceiling – can’t wait to find out!
I have a question about your bathroom though – maybe I missed it but what are you planning to use as a shower curtain? Are you installing a glass panel instead because of your sloping wall?
Looking great as always Kim and Ryan!
Cindy @The Flipping Couple says
Oh man. I’m drooling over the ceiling already. Can’t wait to see the finished product. Also? Finished bathroom = dance party. That is awesomesauce!
Ellie says
That bathroom is gorgeous! Can’t wait to see it accessorized! It’s fun to watch the results of all your hard work. LOL!
*claire* says

Mrs. Chic says

The bathroom turned out amazing so pretty
Rita/Fighting Off Frumpy says
Is it weird that I want to just go into your bathroom and, like, lay on the floor?
… It is?
… Nevermind then. ๐
Real Housewife in MN says
Looks awesome! LOVE the hardware.
Leigh says
So cool, can’t wait to see it done! The lighting looks great. We still have lots of lighting fixtures to change out.
