The New Bathroom

Yeah!!  I’m so happy.  Its finally finished.  Well almost…We are having a little trouble getting the sink hooked up, but other then that , things are back up and running.  The sink should be working in the next day or two.  Just need to make another trip to Lowes. 

So here is some before and after pictures.

This was our old sink and vanity.  It was huge.  We wanted to downgrade a bit but still get something with some storage room.  Our bathroom isn’t very big, so any extra space we could make was gonna be a bonus.

Trevor forgot to take a before picture, and I was gone when he got started.  So this is the closest I could get.  The walls were green at the top and had a nasty yellow tile at the bottom.  Yuck.  The floor was a peal and stick on top of a bunch of itty bitty tiles.  We had to practically gut the entire bathroom. 

Trevor ripped out all of the old tiles, walls and pulled up the floor.  He added insulation (which was not there at all for some reason), redid the drywall and redid the floorboards.

We added crown molding, which was Trevor’s idea.  It turned out very nice.  I love it!!  We painted the walls a pale grey and the trim work is an off white. 

The new floor (and the hole where the toilet goes.) 

The new sink.

The new sink and mirror.  There is also a new vanity light but I couldn’t get it in the picture.

The new curtain rod, hooks and shower curtain.  We went with earth tones so it would match our new floor and walls. 

So there you have it.  I wish I could capture the entire bathroom in a picture, but its just too small.  It’s been a long 4 weeks, but you can see why.  It was a long and hard job.  Trevor did most of the work himself but had a friend help him out with the trim work, a friend help out with the painting and my dad helped out with the floor. 

So thanks to everyone who helped both with your labor and with your prayers.
