Happy New Year and welcome to 2022! At the beginning of each year I come up with a list of what I would love to update in my home. There are the must haves, the love to haves, and the probably wont haves. Let's take a look at what the Dillon household has in store for 2022, shall we?
A must have for this year was actually discovered last year. You may recall that I gave my deck a much needed makeover. When I was in the middle of this project, I noticed that some of the wooden boards on my deck were rotting. So come spring, I'm going to have the rotting boards replaced, and the deck stained (gray, pending HOA approval).
My first "love to have" is a desperately needed renovation of my son's bathroom. I have made some very small changes to the space over the years. I painted the walls and the vanity. I also changed out the mirror and the light fixture. However it’s still not up to par in my opinion and needs a complete overhaul. It's tiny, so it shouldn't cost too much money, but it also needs a complete overhaul. I don't like the vinyl shower/tub combo. The vanity is too big for the small space. The floor was a DIY tile job at some point from a previous owner and there's no caulk along the seams where the tub meets the tile. I wish I could have a pocket door installed, but it's just not feasible due to the electric on one side of the door and plumbing on the other. But I'll still make it the best teeny tiny bathroom to ever exist!
Another love to have is millwork. This house desperately needs it on the stairways and on the main floor (kitchen and living room). Of course I'm not sure how high this priority should be given I have spent a lot of time and effort on my main floor already.
A probably won't have, it's a complete overhaul of my closet. It's the only space in the house that hasn't been touched since the house was built. I did replace the light at some point, but other than that, it's still painted the original white from when this house was a new build (mid to late 90s)!
Well, there you have it! A complete list of my intended major projects for 2022. Let me know your thoughts in the comments, and if you have any projects, what are they?
