So there you go.
Leverage your connections.Don’t be shy: know who you know and find out who you know.
Don’t be afraid to call your old buddy from high school who’s now working at a cabinet shop even if you haven’t spoken in 10 years.Find out the guy at the water systems store is your uncle’s drinking buddy from 35 years ago.True story: It’s amazing what you can discover through casual conversation.
The beneficial by-product of this is keeping it local.. 4.Use your resources.
Don’t settle on one supplier.
Look around and ask everybody.We decided to go with a 5-foot tub rather than a 6-foot one to keep the room feeling spacious and I’m so glad we did!.
I left the Christmas wreath up.It just seems perfect for that spot and I’m thinking maybe in a month or so when I start with my Easter decor it can just become an Easter wreath.
I love that this room is super fancy (by my standards at least!)and traditional in style, but it still feels fresh and approachable and totally like “us”.
