BATHROOM RENO DONE!

So our upstairs bathroom started like this in July....

....then I pulled off the flowered wallpaper on top and the striped wallpaper below the chair rail.

Then we gutted everything and....

...pulled up the floor.....

This lovely tar-paper was on top of the old wood.

See the old copper pipes in the corner....they are all pitted and had to be replaced too.

We found these old nails from when the house was first build in 1930.

I'm going to frame these nails and put them up in the bathroom. Can't wait to see the questions/comments we get from that wall decoration.

Here is the original floor in the bathroom compared to our hallway, which is lighter.

Then we found some of the boards around the toilet were totally rotten.

Here is why....a VERY LARGE CRACK in the toilet pipe?! YIKES!

New plywood goes down.

New vinyl is installed!

They then put in the vanity and lights....but see that hole? The old vanity top was much lower and the new one covered the outlet, so the outlet had to be moved up.

Here are the pretty pipes that replaced the old copper ones.

INTRODUCING....Our lovely bathroom. The mirror we picked out originally from Home Depot ($109) was too big so we took it back and found this at WalMart for $20.00. So, we picked up a second one for our first floor bathroom.

The walls are pretty blank but very bright. We decided just to stick with white above and below the chair rail for now. We also need to install the ceiling light, an outlet cover and a towel bar, but we are so, so happy with the results.
