I painted the cabinets and trim, changed out the mirror and faucets, changed out the lights and added some new knobs and towel rings (and hooks).
That all made a pretty big change!

The tub and shower area didn’t change too drastically.
{Before}

We thought that step was a hazard!  So I tore it out along with some of the tile/wall.  My plan was to rip out the shower and build a walk in shower and re-tile the tub and surround.

Let me back up!  STORY ALERT! I started this project the same week my hubby and I started the basement.  Since we were working on that together, I wasn’t supposed to work on it alone during the week.  ‘Cause, you know, it was our “together” project!
As remodeling our house is my “day job”, I needed something to work on until Saturday rolled around.  So, I tore out some of the bathroom.

But, we didn’t get very far on the basement working 4 hours each Saturday so we decided I better go ahead and hurry it along during the weekdays so it could be completed some time this decade.

Naturally, I shifted my energy to the basement, because I always focus on just one project at a time until said project is done (cough, cough)!  The bathroom sat, and sat, and sat…for 2 years (maybe 3…it’s hard to remember) until just last month when we decided we had to move!

At that point, I had to rescue and revive.  So we patched some drywall and I re-tiled and changed out some faucet handles and called it good.

Come on in and see if you notice a difference.
