Bathroom renovations

The hallway bathroom needed help! It was outdated (circa 1995) and had some leakage problems and lots of hard water stains over the years. I've been wanting to update the "look" for a while now. I'd gotten pretty tired of the beige, seashell motif....here it is a few minutes into the "demolition".


Much sledge-hammering was accomplished. Amazing how heavy wallboard is when you attach a bunch of ceramic tiles!


All the fixtures gone - wow, what a mess!


Off to the dump with load #1....more as we progress!

YAY! Remodeling is so much fun - we're contemplating putting some large sort of tile down in the living room here (not our house you know) - then we'd put a nice area rug in the middle - thinking it would be nice during the 6 month winter/slush/tracking in...

What color are you planning - show us the tile...

Love,

hey girls! yes, i'm looking forward to the "after" also!! we're just picking out the "stuff" to put back...so far, it's white fixtures, a pretty cherry cabinet with custom white marble top and legs instead of the normal vanity and some pretty aqua-marine blue shimmery tiles for the floor. got lots of sheetrock and floor work to do first, though! i'll keep you posted as we progress, i'm sure. not too soon, though - going to the boat for a long holiday weekend.

love, k
