My sister and her family are coming in a few days
and I decided that the our big bathroom needed to finally be redone...
with less than a week to do it.
It is the last room in the house with wallpaper from when we moved in.
The wallpaper look had run its course with me.
Can I just tell you that I think wallpaper paste is evil, evil stuff?
Now I'm sure if I had listened to everyone on Facebook
and had tried the Downy method, it might have come off easier.
But there was only a little bit left in the laundry room
and I saved it for you know, clothes.
My husband has been too busy this week to really help out,
so he told me I was kind of on my own on this project.
I am feeling kind of like Amy Wynn
(anyone remember her from Trading Spaces?)
So far I have stripped wallpaper, mudded and sanded the holes,
and primed the walls, and painted trim and the sink cabinet.
Now I just need to break out the power tools and cut some bead board...
probably going to need some help there.
Cutting out outlet holes could be a problem.
I might be regretting my hasty bathroom project.
It is Friday, and my family is coming Monday.
Oh yeah, and I have grocery shopping to do today
and cleaning up for a dinner we are having tonight.
Maybe I should have just stuck to the brownies and caramel thing...
that only ends in a sink full of dishes.
And dishes are sure a lot easier to do than
putting a bathroom back together.
I have a feeling that a lot of chocolate is going to be needed
this weekend to get me through with minimal crabbiness.
These little brownie bites filled with caramel
and nougat topping just might do the trick!!!
Have you ever started a big project
and then regretted it???

Oh no! I hope you finish in time! I can't imagine starting such a huge project with such little time. Make sure you post pictures when you're done so we can see your hard work!

I always start major projects with not enough time. I hope you are more successful then me and get it done by Monday. These brownie bites look like the perfect popable fuel.
Oh my gawsh. I love chocolate and caramel. And brownies. Mmmmmmm...
Cute! The look delicious, too!
And the scones are wonderful. But - they did turn out to be a temptation to my husband so I won't make them that often. He actually ate them. He tries not to eat many carbs and he doesn't like coffee at or - or anything containing it, so I thought I was safe. Oh, well... I hid one wedge for breakfast and my coffee maker just quit, so I'm headed to get it now!
I want to see pics of your project! Wallpaper IS evil. I am convinced of that. LOVE these brownie cups. Yum!
Ummm…..YUMMM! Thanks…I'll be trying these soon!
I love how cute and rich these look, but the recipe is a cinch! Thanks for sharing. ...off to pin it!
These look sooooooo good. I'm sure they'll easily cure your crabbiness. And if any of your house guests comment on your in-progress bathroom, just play it off like that's normal. "What bathroom under construction? That's what it looks like everyday, I don't know what you're talking about...?"
Yummmm-my, my friend!! Good luck with the bathroom makeover! Wallpaper is the worst. Blech!
I love makeover projects, good luck! And those look amazing!
Wallpaper is the devil. It just is. These brownies? More like heaven. I want one!
Now I have to make these. :)
WOWZA! Jocelyn these look amazing! I LOVE caramel. I bet these taste divine!

Yes I start remodeeling my scrap room and then run out of steam half way through and it just ends up more of a mess than before. These cupps look delish - I will have to try to make some!
Mmm, great idea to fill them with caramel. And so easy. Saw your recipe on Alli n Son's Sweet Tooth Friday.

Oh my stars! Yummmy!Hugs and Happy Weekend Wishes!!P.S> It's giveaway time at Katherines Corner come on over :-)
These are so delicious! I made them the other day and took them to a party. They were a huge hit! Thank you for sharing :) I was wondering if the leftovers needed to be put back in the fridge because of the cool whip in the frosting? How long can I let them sit out? The only other issue I was running into was how to pop those suckers out of the brownie tins without ruining their shape. Any tricks? I will definitely be making them again!!!
@Ashley...I am so glad you made them and liked them. Yes, they need refrigerated if they don't get inhaled:-) I sprayed the pan with bakers joy first. Then after they come out of the oven only let them sit for 2-3 minutes in the pan or they are harder to remove. Use an edge of a knife to gently lift all around the cup before removing. Hope that helps:-)
These brownies look so delicious! I've just found your site today so I'm sure your bathroom is all together. I always hate the work of a redecorating project but sure do enjoy the results.
Thanks so much! I love your blog!
