Yeah. You see when we moved into our house, four summers ago now, it was as if the previous owners were halfway through a bathroom remodel of their own and then decided to sell the place.
The trim work was left unfinished, and the walls were half-painted and streaky. And yet they'd done nothing about the boxy vanity that nearly blocked the narrow entryway, or the wood-framed window inside the tub that was rotting from what was probably decades of water damage.
Well ...
After many, many nights of cursing the previous owners. Fighting with a tile cutter. Scraping the old paint off the walls like a mad man. Debates about colors and decor. Gathering bids from contractors. Lots of paint coats. And spending more money than we'd like to acknowledge ...
Our bathroom is finished.
Here's a look back:
First, May 2004, on the day we moved in ... The picture really doesn't do it justice.
January. We tore out the vanity and the old floor and put down new tile ...
And there goes the tub tile ...
It all led to this finished project ...
