A Wisconsin New Year

December 28, 2015 by jessica 23 Comments

NYE-1

I can’t believe 2016 is just a few days away! The dawn of a new year means an onslaught of resolutions and one last chance to dress up before the winter doldrums set in. I’m linking up with five other ladies today to share what we’re planning to wear on Dec. 31 or, in my case, what we would wear if we we were going out!

You know how much I love short swing dresses and flats, so it’s no surprise that I’d stick with my favorites for a night out with just a few favorite accessories: a quirky bag, statement earrings, and a cuff. However, I wish I had donned a major necklace. The neckline seems too bare for the year’s most glamorous night. (If only this was in my budget…) When the big night rolls around, though, this dress will remain snug in my closet. We’re visiting my parents in Northern Wisconsin over the weekend where I feel overdressed in anything more than jeans and a sweater! (You can expect some pretty great Snapchats of the glory of this bizarre Northwoods bar if you follow me at bedknobsbaubles.)

I am just the happiest! I keep looking at this bat I am just the happiest! I keep looking at this bathroom and thinking how lucky we are that we were able to do this! It wasn’t always easy to navigate the stressful moments, but the end result is worth it. I feel like I’m at a luxury hotel every time I shower! (And it sure beats showering with the spiders in our [basically unfinished] basement bathroom. It was like camping in our own home for the past six weeks — and I very much hate camping!)

More photos to come!

The rest of the shower tile will be installed on Monday and then they’ll starting laying the floor tile. I can’t wait!

My NCAA bracket was busted within the first few ho My NCAA bracket was busted within the first few hours of the tournament, but there's a much more fun one to take part in: a bagel bracket with @bantambagels -- and you can win a month's supply of the winning flavor! There will be a daily matchup on their Instagram stories each Thursday, Friday, Monday, and Tuesday now through April 5. Each vote in the daily face off is a chance to be one of five grand prize winners! My vote goes to Everybody's Favorite, an everything bagel stuffed with veggie cream cheese.

So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, goodbye ... to So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, goodbye ... to this bathroom. Demolition on our upstairs main bathroom starts today! I love old houses and #OldHouseThings, but this bathroom's prior renovation clearly isn't part of the original home -- nor was it done well. A leak from the bathtub into our kitchen on Easter 2020 kicked off our plans for the renovation and it's finally coming to fruition two years later. The prior damage wasn't caused by leaking pipes (although we just replaced all of the old galvanized pipes with PVC plumbing to futureproof the house); it was from water pooling on the edge of the tub after a shower and then spilling over the side onto the floor. As we discovered, the tub isn't level (nor is the toilet) which caused water to flow over. I'm sure we'll discover plenty of other water damage as our contractor's team starts pulling everything out and I'm so excited for the peace of mind that will come from getting everything in tip top shape. 

Today is also the day that fixtures will be installed in the half bath! There's a short punch list of small things yet to do in that space, but the finished product is right around the corner!
