Did you hear me scream from the mountain tops that I got to pick out all of the light fixtures, faucets and carpet in our new house?
While Brian had to work, during one of our last days of the house-hunting trip, I had the pleasure of taking my no-napping over-energetic hungry maniac man to the builder's designer warehouse. Ever heard that expression, "bull in a china shop"? Well I took my bull to the china shop. As our realtor watched Nathan pull out handfuls of brochures and whisper to me, "I think his diaper's wet", I quickly chose the things that would make me most happy. I've always wanted to do this. Drum roll please..
All bedroom bathrooms, guest rooms and downstairs powder room will have this faucet. Gosh, can you just smell the oil rubbed bronze?
Here is the kitchen faucet. Decided to go with silver, as to not clash with the dark counter tops. Really love that sprayer.
Entry way light fixtures. There are going to be two of the larger size. These were already hanging up in silver and I slightly begged for them to be swapped out to the oil rubbed bronze. They obliged.
Fans. Kind of a snooze-fest, but they will all be uniform and have lights in them. That was Brian's sole wish. For the fans to have lights in them.
These lights will be in bedroom bathrooms and the single version will light the way up the stairs in a few places.
And here she is. The light fixture for over the kitchen table. It has six lights and if you don't like it, then just never tell me until I'm living in a retirement home.
Lastly, here's the carpet. Pretty standard looking, however we upgraded for softness and a better pad.
Also, those are not my feet.
I'm just so thrilled with getting to choose everything. I also had some time to check out the local Home Goods and it's a good thing I flew to Arkansas, otherwise these would be in the cart:
Mark my words, those babies will in my house soon. They were practically GIVING them away.
More to come soon. I'm way excited for this new home. I have a much better attitude about the move than I did when we went to Dallas. Plus, I have an insane amount of fun spending money from my hard work as an online garage sale seller. Hooray!
