BUT before all of that I painted two coats of paint on the wainscot. It's looking good! I think, though, that it needs one more coat. And it needs some caulk around the seams.
When John got home, we ate dinner at Sweet Tomatoes then ran to Home Depot to get a few things we needed to put the toilet back in place. So we really didn't get to start back working on things till almost 10 at night.
We did reinstall the toilet! Well, he did. It was kinda funny too. We haven't the slightest idea what we are doing...kinda making it up as we go along with the help of Goggle. We called our plumber a few days ago to see how much it wold be reset a toilet and it was almost $90. We said "NO WAY! We'll figure out how to do it ourselves!"
So we did....the picture below cracks me up since this was John's way of installing the toilet.
I think it's just hysterical. I dunno...maybe you just had to of been there.
hahaha
Our toilet and toilet paper holder. It's so cute! I love it! I found it on clearance at Home Depot!
After the toilet, we removed the mirror. Nice hole, huh! There must have been a previous medicine cabinet there. I can honestly say that we are getting to know this old house very very well!
So now all we need is a little texture and some more turquoise paint and we'll be good to go to hang the new medicine cabinet!
We are going to reuse the old square mirror somewhere else in the house. We'll just frame it and hang it!
That's about all we got done last night in the bathroom. We quit about midnight then spent the next couple of hours playing Cafe' World and freakin' Farmville! Oh, and I fell asleep watching the Soloist.

You should of called me!!! I've done our toilets...twice! Dad taught me when we bought our house. He came when we had no furniture and we had to change the wax out and he showed me everything step by step. Then I taught Nick ;P....thats right Girl Power!!
Wow your bathroom looks amazing! The wainscotting(sp?) is gorgeous and the wall color is so beautiful! I can not wait to see it when it's done!
