Weekend Happenings...

How does a three day weekend go by so quickly?  When you're working on the weekend, that's how.  And no, not at the job that pays me.  The fun job of being a homeowner.  We finally got started on our bathroom remodel, and worked pretty much all weekend on it.  While I think it will look fantastic, remodeling is seriously no joke.  We probably have another weekend to go until it's complete, but here's some inside details on the progress.

Before the Remodel begins...

The end of day 3...


So, as you can see from the first to the last picture, we got rid of that hideous green color.  I have no idea why the previous homeowners thought that was a good color for the bathroom.  We also took out the one piece cultured marble slab and tiled the wall behind the bathtub.  We will be adding that tile to the front of the tub, as well.  The tile floor has been ripped out, and we are putting in a new wood grain tile.  We are keeping the cabinet and adding new hardware and a new countertop, replacing the lights above the mirror, and adding a new, quieter fan with a light.  We still have a ways to go, but I'm already happy (and exhausted) with the progress that has been made.

Yay that's so exciting! I love tearing things apart. We have already decided that our next home will be a fixer upper that can make our own.

Wow! That's a lot of work in not a lot of time. I'm excited to see how it looks in the end.

I don't think that green would be good in any room. ever. :)
