the day we closed on this house, kenny tore open the bulkhead ceiling above our second floor bathtub to find no plumbing to support a tall enough shower head.

just a few weeks ago, we finally have a finished room in the house! we cheated a little by hiring a contractor to lay the ceramic tile floor and install the wainscotting...but everything else was our own work - from ripping out the old paneling and linoleum flooring to painting and installing the white shelves above the toilet (not pictured yet...). kenny also installed a tub surround in the shower since it was just a bathtub with wood paneling and wall papering up to the dropped ceiling

it's so lovely to feel clean again in our bathroom (the old bathroom was mostly wood - from the toilet seat to the handles on the sink to the soap dishes- a party room for germs!

here is the same shot of the bathroom before, during and after:

also unpictured is the shower, which is to the left as you enter the bathroom - it's hard to get a shot of it through the hallway door.

Wow looks awesome! I think I may have a bathroom that could use a remodel! :)

And we ripped out the old wainscotting and put in new. You can see the new stuff goes above the outlets at the sink...

Hi Liz! You two did an awesome job on the bathroom. :) I hope you are doing well today. Happy belated birthday to your son!

Take care and have a wonderful rest of your Wednesday, Robin

It looks amazing!

We paid for someone to tile the floor in the bathroom and mud the drywall upstairs. It would have been a shame for me to ruin all of our hard work!
