Not so Happy "Fall"...

Um, yeah. That's the downstairs bathroom ceiling... that just happens to be below the upstairs bathroom. This is what happens when you misplace your step while walking on the floor joists. Can you imagine my hubby just hanging there? The kids watched him fall as they were sitting in the hallway watching him work. I'm not sure who was more traumatized- my hubby or the kids! Looks like our third bathroom will be getting a little attention now as well!!!

p.s. No serious harm was done. Just a little bruised leg and ribs and two traumatized kids!

Change of Plans

Can you guess where our change of plans is??? That's right, the tub is gone. Turns out the floor was wet and soft under there, so we will have to replace the floor and the tub... couldn't get it out without tearing it apart! Now we've gone from a "mini reno" to a full-blown reno!!!

On to the Next Project

Our next project is the hall bathroom. Isn't it lovely??? I bet from this picture you can't tell what year our house was built! Harvest gold and avocado green. What a combo! This is the kids' bathroom. They are all about planning what color they want the new walls and tile to be. I haven't told them that they don't get a say. It's going to be neutral, except for the tub. We'll be leaving it green. It's not my favorite color, but it's really in good shap. So.... this one will be a mini renovation. We will basically just be re-doing the tile and the floor.



While we're at it, we are doing the entry tile as well. It has probably one of the worst tile jobs I have ever seen. We will be putting down the same tile that we did in the kitchen. I'm so excited. I know it will look great!

Sneak peak

Ok, I know it's been a while since we started the bathroom project, and it really didn't take that long to finish. The problem is that I picked a horrendous color for the bathroom walls and it took several months to convince my handy hubby to repaint it! Here are some pics of the repainted bathroom. I still haven't decorated it, though, so it's really quite plain. I thought you might want to see some kind of a finished product before I post the start of the next bathroom renovation! (Please excuse the poor picture quality.... I have seemed to misplaced my flash.)
