When I redid our loft bathroom, I really liked how big the mirror was, especially in comparison to the rest of the space because this is a really massive bathroom. However, after I redid everything else, I realized the mirror just looked bare and contrasted with the rest of the space. I decided to build a custom frame for it!

In order to get ready for baby number two to come, we needed to rearrange and redo our first floor to accommodate our TV and our play area. I knew that I wanted to add extra storage, and from there it just snowballed into a whole first floor makeover. So, follow along to see what I did!

I decided to take Jackie’s builder basic bathroom and step it up a notch. It needed to be more functional. We needed more space for hanging stuff that was not on the back of the door and I wanted it to reflect her style. It’s amazing what a change in hardware, some paint, and a little bit of shiplap can do to transform a space!

When I first started redoing our primary bedroom, we moved my husband's desk over to the corner of the room. That took away the space that we were using previously for our full length mirror. I knew I needed to find a new space for it because it was just awkwardly sitting behind the bedroom door and that just wasn’t going to work. Hanging it on the back of the door wasn't an option either because there was too much light coming in from behind it. So, I spent some time wandering around our house and I decided that the landing at the top of our first set of stairs was going to be the best option since there was a good amount of space to work with. I liked that there was nothing on the wall, the lighting was good and there was plenty of space for me to make this a cozy little nook, so that's what I decided to do. So I got to work.

 If you’ve been here a while you will know that I LOVE reimagining underutilized spaces, especially closets. Our builder grade coat closet is a prime example of underutilized space and just wasn’t cutting it for our needs. I knew I wanted to get my hands on it, so I decided to remove everything from it and get to work.

The bathroom in our loft is a very large space with not a lot of storage, like most of our house. It’s also really basic and builder grade. There’s nothing wrong with that, but it doesn’t reflect my current design style. So I got to work coming up with a plan to revamp it into something functional that I love.

My mom asked me to put some drawer organizers in the drawers in her kitchen. She was getting frustrated with the clutter in two of her drawers specifically so I had her tape out the layout that she wanted and I used some scrap wood that we had and made it happen. After I finished with hers I liked it so much that I did the same thing to a few drawers in my house. The whole process was pretty simple, let me show you what I did.
