What have we gotten ourselves into?!? Seems like just when we finish one project, another one gets started. It's amazing how quickly "talking" about redoing/fixing something turns into actually "doing" it. Our current project involves giving the downstairs 1/2 bath a makeover. The bathroom now has ugly mint/pea green walls with coordinating tile. The walls are textured, HATE!! You can't see in the picture, but there are two ugly glass, mirror lights abover the mirror and vanity. Also, the lights, mirror, and vanity were not centered above one another.
Our plans for the bathroom include: replacing the lights, mirror, vanity, and toilet, ripping up/replacing the tile, plastering/smoothing out the walls, repainting walls a different color, and getting new switchplates and fixtures. So far the project has taken two weekends with the first being dedicated to demolition and this past weekend putting down a new floor.
Before...

Getting ready to rip up the tile...Scary!!

The floor is all ripped up.

Found the starting point for laying the tile.

Tile layed and grouted. Still have a bit of haze to get off the tile, but overall it turned out well.

The goal for this coming weeked is to get the walls primed/painted and to put up a baseboard. We should be close to finishing! I will be so happy if this project can be finished within a month because there are already plans for another one...AHH!
