Master Bathroom Renovation Day Two

Jim made great progress in the bathroom.  As the end of Day Two the wall panels are in place:

The sink and vanity are installed,

The medicine cabinets are up,

The lights are up and working.  I love these lights - Thank You Amazon.com

Here's a look at the whole room

So, now it's putty and paint.  We need to find new towel bars, and that sort of stuff, and then have the floor installed.

It's going to look fantastic when it's done!

Master Bathroom Renovation

We have what feels like the smallest half bath in existence. It is functional, but there is no wasted space in there (well, except for the 2" gap between the vanity and the wall - just enough space to be difficult to clean, and is really aggravating if you drop things down there) and there's a really funky tile floor. We have renovated the rest of the house, and we wanted to bring that room up to the same level as all the others.

It has a beautiful window. The previous owners added a stained glass look to it, which looks nice - there is 'lead' and some color to it. It makes it so that people can't see in, which is always a plus in a bathroom. ;). I didn't get a good picture of it, so here's a not-so-good picture. I'll try to get one tomorrow.

 

We started by taking everything out - the medicine cabinet, the other cabinet, the vanity, the tile and fixtures - even the funky floor came out

And I started removing the wallpaper border. Isn't it funny how renovating a room is like opening a time capsule. There's paint colors, wallpapers, floors, it's funny to see it all. The border came off in two coats, and fairly easily, then there was this weird looking stuff underneath, and at first I wasn't sure what it was, then I realized it was paint. Lavendar wall paint with emerald green sponge painting on it. it really as best covered up!

Our plan for this room was to have two 'medicine'' cabinets with glass shelves in between and panel work on the walls to match the rest of the house. Jim had already built the cabinets so he installed those

And installed the new vanity and sink

And that's all for today!! It's functional again and starting to look the way we envision.

I'll post more tomorrow!!

Happy Groundhog Day!

According to legend, if he sees his shadow, there will be six more weeks of winter weather. If he does not see his shadow, there will be an early spring.

I don't know about you, but I'm hoping for an early spring!
