So the bathroom is complete! We actually finished this a few weeks ago, but I don't blog much anymore these days. That sucks on my part because I think of things throughout the day that I need to blog about, but I am just too lazy by the end of the evening to sit down and do it.
Anyway, here are the after pictures of our great bathroom remodel. In a nutshell, this is what we changed/replaced:
Light fixtures above the sink- Jeremy did the wiring, but I totally helped, but then my dumb ass put the covers on upside down on one side and they got stuck- Whatever!
Mirrors- Jeremy hung these but I measured
Faucets- Oh this was the most fun- I did these myself, I only needed Jeremy's help to get some bolt off that was too tight and to help me adjust the drain plug, because I can't be under the sink and above it at the same time.
Painting- I don't mind painting at first. I really love to do the first coat, then it becomes work! I hate doing trim and I'm not good at cutting in edges, but I did pretty well this time, I definitely took my time and did it right. Although I think it helps when you don't have someone standing over your shoulder saying "you did it wrong".
Floors- Jeremy laid the flooring down for me, but I had to do all of the prep work. This entails prying off all of the quarter round on the floor all around the room, then scraping with a tool all of the gluey caulk that some loser put down there all the while not ripping the linolium that is as old as the house is (about 12 years old). Then I had to wash the floors on my hands and knees, then when they dried, I had to go back over there with rubbing alcohol and a paper towel to remove any oil build up.
New toilet- so the thing is the old toilet leaked and never flushed right, Jer put in the new one but I helped with cleaning around the ring, and that was gross, but now I have a gorgeous toilet that doesn't leak and flushes like... well I don't know what to compare a toilet flushing to- but you know what I mean.
Shopping for the details- Well, of course I love shopping, and I love getting a good deal and my favorite store in the whole wide world is World Market. I got my shower curtain there and I had previously gotten my towels there. The picture came from Bed Bath and Beyond on clearance.
OK OK! so here are the pictures already:
