So..imagine my surprise when I got an email from my lovely blog buddy Kerry over at <a href="http://tranquiltownhouse.blogspot.com/">A Tranquil Townhouse</a>, telling me that my bathroom renovation (I blogged about it in one of my very first posts <a href="http://driftwood-interiors.blogspot.com/2010/03/bathroom-before-after.html">here</a>) had been featured on <a href="http://www.remodelaholic.com/2010/04/drifting-in-dream-bathroom-remodel.html">Redmodelaholic</a>!

Just can't help myself...had to post just a few more images from my inspiration folder. Little pieces in these rooms helped form the design of my big makeover.

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Today my little Sofia has a temperature, nothing serious, but she hasn't been the sweet little rascal as always.

Big plans..

So..today has been busy. And really exciting, because I've been working on some big plans for this house of mine...<br /><br /><br />Now my hubby is on a course for work at the moment, and I have a crazy idea...I'm going to take on a seriously big makeover while he's away. Hopefully he's as excited about it as I am (fingers crossed!), but loving the way my home looks, and the way it makes me feel, is really important to me and I know he'll be happy with whatever I do.<br /><br />So, I may be a little scarce over the next few days. But just wait till I show you what I've been up to. I really hope it looks like I imagine it will, but one thing's for sure, it won't ever look the same again!<br /><br />There's no way I can bring myself to post without including some pretty pictures, so here's some of the beautiful rooms that have inspired this crazy idea of mine.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;
