Bath Shower Home Design

A dripping faucet is one of those chores that tend to get pushed to the bottom of the “honey-do” list. It’s not dangerous, like a sparking electrical outlet . It’s not super-annoying, like a Justin Bieber song , or a smoke detector that wants new batteries, and reminds you by chirping loudly every 30 seconds, ALL NIGHT LONG. It might seem a little intimidating, because you have to move the 247 containers of shampoo and conditioner and toilet cleaner and sponges and razor blades and feminine hygiene products from under the sink, so you can shut the water off. You then have to figure out how to take the faucet apart, and then actually go find the right parts and put the stupid thing back together. All this can lead to a decision to just let the leaking bathroom faucet keep on leaking. Deep in your environmentally responsible heart , though, you know that’s the wrong decision, and it’s really a pretty simple fix . Take heart, and follow our simple guide to fix YOUR leaking bathroom fau...

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Moen, Incorporated for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine. I’ve mentioned a time or two that I’ve been in the process of revamping the tiny full bath in my home. I have big, big plans for that room and have already knocked quite a few of my projects out. Now some day soon my dad and I are going to replace the counter on my tiny vanity but we haven’t gotten around to it yet. And I figured why sit around with a pretty faucet like the Moen  Boardwalk Spot Resist bath faucet  sitting in a box when I could be using it? When it’s time to replace the counter we’ll remove it and put it back. They say if you do something once it will just be easier the second time around, right? Now to say that I installed the faucet is a total lie. I helped but I mostly took pictures. Russell is the one who did the installing and he’d never worked with plumbing before. We had our ups and downs and patches of confusion but in the end it worked out and I...

This post brought to you by Moen, Incorporated. All opinions are 100% mine. As you saw last week, we’ve been busy sprucing up the bathrooms for Spring. A few small touches truly make the world of difference. Last week was decor, this week it’s the faucet in the master bath. The space got a DIY makeover last year , but at the time being on a tight budget, the existing faucet remained . It was fine and functional, but the style was dated and original to the house. With the BHG crew coming next week ( yes, next week, can you believe it? ), I thought a little upgrade was due. So… the existing faucet . A one large round handled beauty (NOT!)… When it came time to choose a new faucet, I needed to stick with a single hole style versus the faucets that have 3 holes (2 holes for the handles + 1 hole for the spout). I chose the  Boardwalk Spot Resist bath faucet in brushed nickel because it resists fingerprints ( even the tiniest, messiest ones that come from the pint sized members of you...

They pioneered the familiar single- handled faucet so prevalent in kitchens and bathrooms. But no matter which Moen faucet you use, they all have one thing in common: the Moen 1225 cartridge .
