Back To The Blue Room

Or more precisely, the blue bathroom. I’ll get to that in a minute. It has been nearly a year since I have blogged about these two rooms. The progress is ridiculously slow. One of the windows had a huge crack and I had that fixed. I bought new curtains from IKEA for this room months ago, but never bought the correct curtain rod to hang them. The blinds on the windows are actually broken and need to be replaced. I have fabric to have roman blinds made, but have failed to pull the trigger. This is becoming a theme with me…

Here is the before picture of the bathroom. It has looked like this for three years:
Those huge, blue, clown like knobs have always driven me nuts. This week I finally replaced them with black glass knobs. So much better!

I purchased the knobs from D. Lawless Hardware. I thought their prices were good and their shipping was quick. This is my first time using them and I was impressed. I was able to purchase for very cheap from their site, the type of screws that go into the knob instead of sticking out the back. So, if you have knobs from places like Anthro. where the screw is sticking out into your drawer or cabinet, this could be the answer.

What do you think? I feels as if it’s a vast improvement and I can’t believe it took me three years. As for that bathroom in general – it has issues. But for now, new hardware is all it gets. 🙂
