sharing a favorite project from last summer: these hard working, multi-purpose rooms are so much more than a water closet. despite their size, they are often the smallest room in the house, that comes to our aid in so many cases, so i think it deserves to be wonderful!

SOMETHING NEW IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD
