It's FINALLY Finished!!!

What began as an after Christmas project has turned into a Valentine's gift. Our bathroom remodel is finallly finished. It was a combined effort with Tony doing the sheetrock, tile, plumbing, countertop and trim and Leslie doing the tape/bed, texture, paint, and grout (and I might add a lot of clean up in between). We have just finished moving everything back into the room and now we can focus on picking up all of the tools so that Jake can start crawling freely around the house again. Here are some pic's from the project:

Before: The tile ran from behind the toilet into the tub and all the way down the opposite wall.

The demo was the most fun, but scary because it smelled really bad!

As witnessed by the extra large DQ cup there were many fast food evenings in our house while the project was under way. I couldn't handle a messy kitchen & bathroom at the same time.

Tony has really gotten good at tile work. He even made a really nice pattern about 2/3 of the way up. It sounded easy when we came up with the idea, but as most things do it took longer than expected.

It's hard to tell but the new color is Manatesse Grey. We had to change the khaki wall color or we would have had to stick a warning label on the door because there was just too much brown.

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the new bathroom. I just hope the cleaning ladies can get the tub cleaner than I have been able to manage. They usually do.
