Playing in the Half Bath, or Ladies Parlor, as I prefer to call it.
I like to change the names of people, places, and things.
I haven't got a decorating clue, so I will plaster the walls with old cat pictures, and stuff I already have.
The room was already freshly painted. A new color for me, and I find it refreshing.
It reminds me of
Linda K. althought it is not exactly Robins Egg Blue.
I love the saying on the old box, I don't remember where I got half the stuff I got. Not proper english, and I love that, just plain talk.
The China doll is dated 1873, she is missing some things, head poorly glued on, I can relate.
I started hanging things just because. I have given everything a good disenfecting, but the dredded grout is very old and needs special attention. How annoying.
The Curtians will be changed.
I hung a piece of old crochet on the built in towel bar over the toilet. The bar does not come out, and the porcelain cannot be removed without taking out a few tiles. Not doing new tiles just now.
I have had this old cat picture for eons, it matches better than the color shows here.
And I always have PennyWinkle to supervise,,,everything! Little stinker.
I bought this pen,,($7.00),,probably a mistake,,,I am going to try it before I break out the "acid".
I will let you know. My sister, Melodie, told me about seeing it on HGTV, this is a different brand Mel.
Simonize Fix It Grout is better according to them, as it goes in deep, and eats the oils and grime build up...gross.
You have to order it on line, and I didn't want to wait, or pay postage.
A couple days later.....IT WORKS! I now have totally white grout that looks like new.
A few tricks to it, do a little at a time with good light, a wet paper towel didn't work for me, I used my fingers to remove excess from the tiles washing with soap and water...and,, learn to stand on your head! LOL
I am so looking forward to the back of the toilet....smile.
The main bath is white and yellow tile,,,another new color...yellow...
The porcelain soap dish and toothbrush holder is permanent,,,must disguise...and more grout lines!
That is what I will be doing this week.
Hope your week is Refreshing!
