Hello again! Ok so I know its been forever, over a month since I’ve updated the progress on Project Renovation, and there are no excuses, other than, my poor little PowerBookG4 seems to on her last legs these days! Poor thing is getting old and tired! But somehow she keeps on trucking……..but just the basics. I’m having trouble uploading photos and watching videos of any kind is out of the question. So this is my excuse for not keeping you all up to date! (BTW if there are any Mac gurus out there reading this, any suggestions would be helpful. I know, I need a new computer, but it seems that the MacBook fairy is busy right now!) So at the moment I am borrowing Luigi's computer when I am able to pry it out of his lap!
Ok so here are the new photos! This is what the kitchen currently looks like…..

Yes there is still a little of the blue tile left, I'm hoping I can paint over it to avoid having to rip it out, or maybe another creative way to cover it up.....

We still have some work to do on the doors and we will be cleaning and sealing the floors as well.
And these are a couple of inspiration kitchens that I am looking at!


And the bathroom has undergone quite a transformation, even though its not completely finished, its still pretty dramatic! We are still waiting for our new toilet bowl……..

It was supposed to be here last Thursday but still hasn’t arrived. Somehow I’m not surprised….Then they told us it would be there today after 4……..We’re still waiting. Oh the joys of living in Italy!

Today I put the first coat of paint on the walls in the bathroom and ended up needing more paint, so I will be finishing that tomorrow. It’s a nice dark plum with white tiles and white fixtures, I hope it will look fantastic!
The tile has since been grouted and looks even better now, I'll show some more photos as soon as I get the painting done.
And here is my inspiration bathroom!

Except our walls are even darker!!
I hope it won't be as long until the next update! Hopefully we will be moving in this coming weekend, assuming we have a toilet bowl of course!
Thanks for having a look! If you know of any great sites for interior design or inspiration, I would love to hear from you.
For now Ciao Ciao and Happy Monday!
