It's Done!!

After!!
Once the bathroom was done, the changing overflowed to the bedroom. A new picture to add some color and a matching pillow to the bathroom window cover. : )
Before:
We kept the chandeliers, towel rods and shower head. Saved lots of money right there! I couldn't wait to get ride of the gross lino and the vanity.

Before: The Toilet

During: This is the lovely whole Thomas was fascinated with. Thankfully it got covered as soon as the flooring was down!
During: Love it! Uncle Ross came up with this idea. They were the first to sit on the new toilet, before it was working.

After! It's a raised, super flushing toilet.
Before: The Floor (you can also see the vanity, very little storage. Also check out the hospital-like, plastic floor board)

During: Scott hard at work installing the floor.

After: WooHoo!! Tile and clean white floor board. (better looking cabinets)

Before: The Shower. It had all sorts of nasty corners that just couldn't be cleaned. The floors finish was gone, so it was stained and you couldn't see through the doors anymore (kind-of but not really)

During: thought this was a neat shot of the insides. In the bottom right you can see the back of the other bathroom's bathtub.
During: Dad making a detour... the were putting up the cement board and water-proofing when there was an accidental puncture to the copper piping... not just one, but two. the original guys didn't have them protected and set up differently than normal.
During: Jared helping Scott put up some tile
After!!

The tile goes floor to ceiling. New trackless shower door that's suppose to be much easier to clean!
Before: The Vanity!

After! I love the tall cabinets with so much extra storage space. The mirrors are new as well.
The completed after with the mosaic tile backsplash that matches the boarder in the shower

After! The window treatment still needs to be made, but i'm enjoying the color and pattern. We'll see if the counter stays that clean! We have enough storage underneath that I have a basket with all my make up and hair products stored.
Thank you to my husband for embarking on this six week project with me! Thank you to my Dad who helped and taught us so much. A HUGE THANK YOU to Scott for doing the tile it's beautiful!! You're hard work paid off!! Thanks also to Dave and Andrae for helping with the tear out and Ross for plumbing aide. Finally to Thomas for sharing his bathroom with us and always being willing to help out. Thanks also to our parents for their generosity making this possible!
