Clint is graciously chipping away at my 'honey do' list. We are currently remodeling the master bathroom.
Let's back up a little bit to understand WHY I want to remodel this tiny but expensive room.
When Clint and I were looking for houses, one of his number one priorities was having his own bathroom. He was sooo tired of sharing a bathroom with me. I didn't think I was such a pain to share with but, hey! If that's what he wants, I'm not going to complain about having my own bathroom too. So we bought a house with THREE full bathrooms. Problem solved???
I don't think so!
I gave Clint the master bathroom and I took the bathroom right outside the hall. But probably not even three months later, Clint started showering in MY bathroom. Then suddenly his clothes are being left on the floor of my bathroom most mornings. Then my kleenex and q-tips are disappearing much faster than normal! What is this??? Before I knew it, my dear (bless his heart) husband had taken over all three bathrooms!
So when I demanded to know why he was infiltrating my private domain, he blamed it on the tub in his bathroom not working very well.
Solution!!!
"Let's remodel the bathroom all together," I say. Was Clint happy about this idea??? Absolutely not! But after begging him relentlessly for a few weeks he gave in.
The "Before" Shots
You can't really see it in this picture but the floor is a horrible pink laminate paper that was pasted on. That's right. I said 'paper!' It's not even real linoleum.
So on New Years day we began the demolition of the whole bathroom. Then we tiled the floor with help from my dad. (This was our first tiling project ever!)
We used to have this old medicine cabinet in the wall and I figured if we are really going to bring this bathroom up to date we should get rid of that thing. I started seeing these pictures of bathrooms with cute little "niches" in the wall. I figured, "How hard could it really be?" Uh... it's pretty hard when you don't have a clue how to remodel.
So....here we are....procrastinating the completion of the niche. Because neither of us know what exactly to do.
But since I haven't posted anything in a while I thought I would at least let you see the "semi-stalled" project right now.
I'll keep everyone updated as the project comes along!
