I feel like AWing. Want to see some bathroom pics?

tawillers

Here is the only before pic I can find.  Very blah.





Oh, and this candle-shaped recessed shelf thing:

Some during pics:

Original vinyl tile under current vinyl tile


Working on plumbing, but mostly so you can see the disgusting vanity in the background.





Pre-grout

GBCK

oh, I like the mosiac trim bits.

(and, WTF, candle cut out?)

6fsn

That candle cut it out awesome!  You know that took some time to do.

Love the tile.

**O-Face**

Beautiful. I love the tiling.  Was it in pieces...or did you have to put eat one in individually (the little accent ones)?

tawillers

Some afters.  Embarassingly enough, it's not 100% finished.  We still have to touch up some paint and install the trim.




Super awesome 4-function shower panel



New vanity with vessel bowl and LED faucet




Blue for cold




Green for warm




Red for hot




New recessed shelf - we made it bigger, tiled the back, and used a piece of black granite for the shelf to match the vanity.

tawillers

The mosaic trim came in super easy strips from Lowes.  They had a net backer.

**O-Face**

Well isn't all of that super fancy?  So when can I book a weekend for the SPA?!

Ooooooh, very pretty!  That faucet is super cool.  Is the floor real hardwood?

tawillers

The floor is engineered bamboo.

mrsconn23

Oh that turned out amazing!!  I love it.

I'm kinda in love with the futuristic sink faucet.  My water bill would be super high b/c I'd have to demonstrate it to everyone and maybe play with it all the time.  I'm sure this bespeaks to my maturity level, but I don't care!

tawillers

Well DH and I are on the same maturity level as you then, V.  Last month at Son's birthday party we dragged everyone in there and demonstrated.  And there will be people here on Sunday for DD2's party who weren't able to come last month, so they'll get the grand tour as well.

We're very proud of this room.  We did it all by ourselves and it was HARD.

I'll be curious to hear how you like the floor.

I love it all - the tile especially.

So far so good.  I'm still a little skeptical but the guy who sold it assured us it was fine for a bathroom.

I just make sure to dry up all the water after I bathe the girls.  However, I did drop a screwdriver and scratched it.  A wax crayon hid it well.

It is lovely. Your shower is space-aged!

tawillers

Thanks everyone!

**O-Face**

You guys worked your butts off.  And it shows.

I want to know the four functions of the shower.  My guess:


1. Showering

2. Cooling off on a hot day

3. Washing vegetables

4. Wet t-shirt contests

You both did a great job, and I give major props to be able to do this yourself.
Any other projects in the works? I think y'all probably have the bug now.

tawillers

The next project is to paint the living room.  That's really all that needs to be done.  But we won't be doing anytime soon.  We're both so busy we don't have even a weekend to paint.

But yes, this stuff is fun.  Our kitchen was brand new in 2008, so we won't do anything to it for a long time.

*Barbie*

please come down to texas and redo our master bath. you'll get the extra bonus fun of pulling up carpet.

everything looks great!!! we have a little faucet bit that has the LEDs that does blue for cold and red for hot - from Think Geek. We played with that all the time.

tawillers

Carpet in the bathroom sounds dreadful, Barbie.  But I like a challenge.  I'm on my way! 

zsazsa-stl

When I was a kid we had carpet in the kitchen and bathrooms but hardwood everywhere else.  Oh, 1970s.  You so crazy.

*Barbie*

both of our full baths have carpet everywhere except directly next to the tub and toilet. the sinks are shaped like seashells. I guess that's what was "in" when our house was bulit in 87. The previous owners had a nice kitchen / lower level remodel, but never made it into the bathrooms. i really like the tiled wall cutout with the candles, too.

PMeg819

Oh I love that tile. Love love love it. It looks really nice- great job!

I have carpet in my master bath. I hate it. I'd love to rip that sucker out and redo that bathroom but that's a long ways off.

willywally5

That looks awesome!

Great work!
