Time for another update on the master bath project. This time I’m sharing some of the decor that I have either purchased or created for this space. I am not done with this part but this is what I’ve done so far. Where can I hang my towel? I removed the towel rack that had…

Quarantine has brought out some interesting choices and for me that has led to some interesting purchases. I’ve been thinking about cleaning my carpet for awhile and prior to the shelter in place I was thinking about renting a carpet cleaner.
