I had a busy weekend, but I found some time to work on the girl’s bathroom. When I was out shopping last week for my upcoming show, I happened to find a few things for that space. I had wanted a cabinet to go above the toilet and small market cart for their laundry. Surprising I found both at the same antique mall. To top it off they were having a store wide sale and I got both pieces for around $50! Leaving me some wiggle room in my budget for a new TOTO CST744s Drake Toilet.
Scott had gone out yesterday to run some errands, so I was flying solo on this project. Have you ever tried to hang a cabinet yourself? It’s not easy! I started by finding the studs, then pre-drilled some screws into the shelving. I secured one side, then used a level to get it in the right spot before drilling in the other screws.
I didn’t have a lot of time to play around, but I ‘m looking forward to “styling” them. (And I needed to do a load of towels, so I was running low on fillers! 😉 )
The cart is the perfect size. I almost bought a reproduction a few weeks ago for three times the price. I’m so glad I waited! I saved money and got the real thing…score!
I’m debating on adding a bag to it…what’s your thoughts?
I couldn’t be happier at how it all came together. 🙂
The next few days I will getting ready for The Vintage Farmhouse Spring Market. If you would like to see some of the things I will be bringing, be sure to follow me of Facebook and/or Instagram. I will try to post pieces as I complete them.
Happy Monday, ya’ll!

You are a pretty handy gal. I couldn’t hang something like that on my own. I’m too lazy for one thing and leave that kind of thing to hubs. The shelf unit is perfect over the commode. Love the bird pics on shelves. Did you ever do a post/tutorial on making those? I love them.
Don’ t think I’ve ever seen such an awesome shower curtain, the ruffles are so pretty and the ombre look. Love your whole bathroom. You’re a pretty talented gal. Happy Days

I’d add a removable bag if you are using for dirty laundry – that way the bag can be grabbed when it’s time to take it to the laundry room!
