One of the many things I found absolutely quirky about our new house, was the fact that there was NO division between the master bedroom and the bathroom/toilet area!
Apparently, this is supposed to be a sophisticated look, and you are then able to call your bed/bath a love suite.
A love suite is only appealing in a hotel room dedicated for a champagne filled, "fun" night between over-parented parents or honeymooners.
A looooove suite is NOT in my wants or needs for my everyday living.
We had hoped that we could live with the inconvenience for a while until our funds were saved for the project.
We quickly figured out that there was NO way we could enjoy our home without a poo poo wall dividing the bedroom and bathroom.
The toilet was useless due to the fact that you are seen and heard by anyone else within 50 feet!
Privacy won over hope and funds.
I called many contractors, and only three came to give me bids.
I hired the last company to do the work based on price, quality of work, great references, and quick lead times.
We are very happy with the work and relieved that we can now relax on the throne without an audience.
I had to take all of my clothes, etc. out of the closet for the remodel. The best place for the mountains of shit was in the middle of my bedroom floor.....
or so I thought.
THIS WAS HELL!!
I wore yoga pants and sweat shirts for 2 weeks because I couldn't find anything in the piles!
Lack of a clothing choice could have totally thrown me into a psycho bitch-a-thon.
But it didn't........
It was this pile of construction-dust infested piles, the 'hording style' walkway, and the total UN-feng shui feeling, that threw me into the crazed homeless looking cranky-assed lady!
Thank Gahhhh it only lasted two weeks!
Ahhhhhhhh :)
happy happy joy joy
We added a "Moroccan Red" to the accent wall behind my bed. This matches my blinds and ties the room together.
Randy and I sleep like babies now in the comfort of our clean, spacious bedroom.....
and I for one, feel like it was worth EVERY penny spent on the sound wall.
There is only so much a couple should "share" with each other.

I love the pocket door. Besides the poo/privacy issue I think that every momma out there needs a big soaking tub like that and a door that locks.
The poo wall has given the room a whole new feel. I can't believe how great it turned out! Yes...you are right-there are some things a couple shouldn't share ;)
One word..AWESOME!! So glad it worked out with the wall and pocket door. You know that made me crazy with the "before" look. Can't wait to come up and see all the great changes you have done to the Casa.Now that poor ,lost little house has been transformed into the house it should be.

It looks so nice and must be such a relief to have it done. Nothing like remodeling/construction to throw a girl off!
