finished!

Some posts that never got finished/published...

 

We discovered some issues with our bathrooms after we moved in.  We've since had the house replumbed and completely redid the main floor bathroom this last fall (the ceiling fell down in the hallway outside the bathroom so why not redo the whole area while we were at it!?)  Anyway, I didn't take real before pictures, but here were some pictures I found where you could see what the bathroom used to look like.

 

 

Pink plastic tile, notice that sink sticking out that you had to squeeze past to actually use the bathroom.  Not ideal.  Long story short, when we were relumbing we discovered 18 inches! of unused space behind the sink so we made a little sink nook when we remodeled (we could have moved the whole wall back, but that would have required ducting to be rerouted and we would have had to  move the main sewer column $$$.  We opted to just move the sink back.)

 

 

All the holes from replumbing were in this bathroom, we opted to rip out the walls instead of patch them (they were lathe and plaster) and it snowballed into a total redo. *Notice the mismatched lights.* 

 

 

This sink stuck out way too far into the room.

 

 

Totally gutted.  Reed helping.

 

 

Ta-da! New everything!

 

Ah, much better. SO. MUCH. BETTER.

 

 

This light used to be in our kitchen, but we moved it into here so it would match the light over the sink.  I didn't realize how much it had bothered me until the lights matched.  We did this project this last winter (I wanted it done before we had Norah) and I have to give a huge thanks to my Dad who spent a lot of time over their Christmas visit laying the tiny hexagon marble tile floor.  It is my favorite part of the redo.  Is it weird for a bathroom to be your favorite room in your house?  I love how it turned out.  The End.
