1/2 Bath is complete

Another project we worked on was the 1/2 bath. Things that were changed: Mirror (Thanks Mom!!), Faucet, outlet covers, hardware, floor and of course PAINT!! I just need to add the trim and put the last coat of gloss on the floor.

Here are a couple before shots...




Here I am cutting the tile to make room for the toilet.




Floor is finished!! (except for the gloss)




The goal for the rest of this week and weekend is to finish the floor in the entry way and possibly work on the staircase. But, who knows...

House Pictures!!

Last week, my Mom, Sister, Niece and Aunts Mary and Lois came out to help me get started on some projects around the house. They worked HARD! Thank you again, guys! You rock!! There is one room that is finally finished (for now). I still need to mount the tv and install the home theater, but that will have to wait.

Anyway, here is what it was before I moved in.






This is the mess we started with.

Primed and ready to go!


First roll of the paint!!


The Sadester was a HUGE help. Here she is helping paint the wall.


Peeling the tape to reveal the stripes!!


Finished!!


Now with the furniture and some wall hangings!




I am trying to finish the 1/2 bath tomorrow...so hopefully there will be some new pics!
