Since last fall, we have been slowly working on the bathroom. When I say "we" I am mainly referring to Tom and his dad. Thank goodness for Tom's dad. He has helped us out with lots of projects! So here's what's been done so far...When Tom moved in he found some lovely soggy carpet in there so he and his dad ripped out the carpet and replaced it with vinyl flooring. Then he replaced the toilet and the sink faucet. The first thing to go when I moved in was the gold sliding doors attached to the tub. Once again Tom and his dad ripped out the doors, recaulked and patched up. Then they installed the new curved curtain rod with a brand new shower curtain! HUGE improvement! We got beautiful new towels and rugs for wedding gifts so that completed the look. The next step was to change the walls. Oh the walls. Textured wall board with tiny pink and green flowers on a yellow/white background just doesn't match our personalities. Thankfully, Sherwin Williams 40% off sale saves the day with some good primer and gray paint. Finish off with replacing the wooden towel racks...why would one make a towel rod made of wood? Towels=wet=wet wood=rot. Gross. It's all taken care of now though. Here's the finished product. The bathroom is one of my favorite rooms in the house now. It's come a long way from the carpeted, wall boarded, gold sliding doored room we used to know.
