How to hang a wall cabinet the easy way

How to hang a wall cabinet -- A Pinch of Joy

So happy with the  transformation of my $5 bathroom cabinet!  I think it turned out well and I love, love, love the amount of storage we have now!   The white really pops against the new paint color -- Frost, a very light gray with blue tones that goes from lavendar to blue to gray as the light from the Sola Tube in the ceiling changes throughout the day.  Our kitchen cabinets delivered about the time we were ready to hang this.  Geek that I am, I looked through the directions included for hanging wall cabinets.  The directions they gave looked like a great idea!  So Wheels and Bytes opted to try it out.  And the method worked like a charm!

Powder Room Redo: Reveal

Powder Room Redo - The Reveal -- A Pinch of Joy

Finally!  The Powder Room Reveal. I told you about the agony of choosing color and then about the factors to consider in color choice, plus one great tip I discovered to make it easy if that isn't your forte.  Last week, I showed you some of the things we did on the way to a new and improved powder room.  Wanna see how it turned out?

The Eiffel Tower piece dominates because of its size and placement but doesn’t overwhelm because it’s also simple.  It’s a personal reminder of our “weekend in Paris”.  The towel has the exact pewtery color of the art background as one of its elements and just tickles me when I see the two together.  Yeh, I really am delighted by such things!  What ...

Powder Room Makeover — in progress

The wood floor had been installed in the powder room a few years ago.  And then everything came to a standstill while I debated on the color.   Color swatches hung on the wall and we had almost come to a decision, when someone said it looked like an Easter egg factory had exploded in our bathroom.  Trauma!  Another year went by before we came back to the powder room project.  And selected the color we liked the first time around.  Stripped the wallpaper and painted the walls.  And loved it. Loved the color so much that we went right ahead and painted the dining room just a shade lighter.  And did a bunch of other projects in there.   Are we the only ones who bring things to a screeching halt in one project to head off and do whole 'nother  project somewhere else?  Selecting a vanity was ...
