Potty post

Potty post sounded more interesting than bathroom post. When we bought our house, the master bathroom was downright scary. It was so scary that I couldn't bring myself to take a true before picture. However, I thought the demo pictures were lovely. Everything from the floor to part of the ceiling came out in the master bathroom because it was dirty, dingy and scary. I have 1 question for you- Who drops the ceiling above the shower down to make a small, stand-up shower even more claustrophobic?!? The home inspector and our contractor both think there was mortar (for brick laying) between the tiles rather than grout. It looked like someone had tried to go in there with dark mortar or grout and then only half-way wiped it down. It was smeared all over the tiles. Yuck!

Don't be jealous of the lovely medicine cabinet and lights.

The tile on the walls went, as well.

Over 2,000 lbs of crap came out of the bathroom and went to the dump. The room is narrow, so it is hard to photograph, but here are the after pictures (with Jordan's head included since she was my assistant):

So, we decided not to keep the lovely medicine cabinet with the installed lights. We went with this look instead. The beadboard is sooooo much better than the gross tile that was on the wall.Although the house will be a work in progress for years to come, it was so nice to have the bathroom completed and looking great when we moved in. it isn't huge, but having a 2nd full bathroom is key when the hall bath is being shared with an infant.
