fabulous fonts for friday…

Do you love fonts as much as I do?  I am always on the look out for a new font to add to my collection.  I thought I’d share some fabulous fonts once or twice a month on Fridays.  Some of these fonts are new to me and some are “tried and true” fonts that I used all the time.

 I’ve included the links below the fonts.  Here’s the first edition:

Grayson's bathroom inspiration....

Is it Tuesday already?  Really? My "I'll be back tomorrow" line from Thursday's post and turned into "I'll be back 5 days later".  So sorry, y'all.  It's been a long 5 days with a sick boy, some antibiotics for me, and my husband being gone for a few days on a trip with the students.  Couple that with a SuperBowl party extravaganza and here we are on Tuesday...ugh.

Let's start with what we already have in the bathroom that is staying.  I made the shower curtain using a brightly-colored flat sheet from Walmart.  Here's a better picture of the colors in the sheet...


I need to trim the curtain down a little on the sides so it's less "bunchy" and lies a little flatter when stretched all of the way out, but I love the little bit of whimsy it brings in since this bathroom also serves as our guest bathroom.

The BATH letter hooks are staying, but I'm going to move them down a bit on the wall so the kiddo can actually hang up his own towels.  I'm going to add some art above the hooks.  Maybe something like these?

Grayson would love these if we replaced "Jedi Knights" with "Cowboys".

These are CUTE! But I'm totally okay with splashing, so we could leave that one out. :)

I'd usually just paint the room to add more color but I'm thinking with the addition of some art and colorful towels to hang on the hooks, we'll have plenty of color and still  have the neutral wall color (Monroe Bisque).  Because we all know the re-decorating bug will bite me again in the future! Ha!

I've got a few more ideas for the room, but you'll have to wait for the reveal at the end of the month!

Do you have any great kid's bathroom ideas?  Have you pinned any cute bathroom art lately?

12 in 12...february's project

February's 12 in 12 project is spicing up our guest bathroom, which also serves as Grayson's bathroom.    Here is what it looks like in all it's tan, white, and striped glory...


The view from the hallway.

I love these letter hooks that I found on clearance at Hobby Lobby last year.


Not sure what happened to the hand towel...I'm guessing Grayson used it to dry off something (probably one of his little horses or "skateboard guys") he was washing in the sink.  Just keeping it real, folks!

This is definitely not going to be a remodel at all...we just need to add some pops of color and spice it up a little!  I'll be back tomorrow to share some of my ideas and inspiration! 

Have you done a little "spicing up" in one of your rooms lately?  Pinned any great kid bathrooms that are still "guest friendly"?  Do share!
