And we are still working on that bathroom. But I have to say, this is the absolute quickest we've ever worked! Our last master took almost 8 months to finish. That's why are terrified to rip out that tub at the moment! We'll just try hiding it for now. When we start getting our stuff out of storage, I am going to make a long white shower curtain that will go all the way down to the floor and cover every inch of that ivory color. It'll be nice when it is complete.
Oh, we looked into just resurfacing the tub, they sell this 2 part epoxy stuff, but that would end up costing us $70. We can get a standard tub for $100. So we are definitely waiting to get a new tub!
I was up till 5 in the morning working on that wainscoting (I started painting on it about 2 in the morning)! 3 coats of shiny white paint! Whew!!! I nearly went blind starting at that stuff for so long! And I touched up a few other areas on the other wall.
This is our new toilet seat...isn't the best! It has a potty seat built into the lid! I love it! Piper not so much..but I love it! She misses her cushy princess potty seat!
Up...
Down...
So pretty!
The cutest faucet!
These suckers are coming down in the next few days to get a nice coat of white spray paint then they'll be rehung.
And John's nice new trim he did! He's brilliant!
I'm loving this room! We are beginning to like this house....it's starting to take on a little of our personality. Sweeeeet...........
I painted the girls playroom's concrete floor green tonight. Just to make it feel a little cleaner. After the bathroom, we'll start working in here again. We are texturing and painting it yellow and putting in a new ceiling fan.....oh and putting up crown molding. It's gonna be bright and cheery. And later, John and Meagan are going to come thru and paint a mural or something neat on the walls. Maybe the scene in the end of Astro Boy when Zog appears. I loved those colors!
But for now, the girls can play tic-tac-toe and hop scotch in the playroom.
I painted the ceiling and half the wall (where the texture is ready) the other day. Looks great with that lamp! Another great clearance deal from Home Depot. $12 regular $50!
So, that's what we've done so far. We still have some touching up to do in the bathroom, so I better scram!
