Bathroom Sneak Peek

See how the blue for the walls was inspired by one of the blue stripes on the bathroom accoutrements? The paint is Behr's "Gulf Winds".

I'll take more pictures tomorrow in the daylight.

Front Porch is now Screenless!

A little more curb appeal, yes? :)


(also in this pic are the bedroom & closet doors, temporarily being stored there on the porch)

(ALSO, notice a certain Jindo looking out the bedroom window)

In a way, it was a small change, but now you can really see the house. I like the French door(even though it's in bad shape), BUT I don't feel particularly secure with that as my front door so I'll be getting a new one soon.


[I've been contaminated with some mutant flu bug...more pics in a couple of days.]

Pictures! At last!

The painter is still working on some details, but here's a pic:

AFTER:



Sorry about the glare on the next one (but you can see the awesome yet-to-be-restored vintage stove & the new floor & the non-apartment fridge):

Bathroom Before

The bathroom was in pretty bad shape. There was water damage along the back wall and termite damage under that nasty floor. The old tub, though pretty, was cracked and in too bad a shape to save. I prefer showers anyway so I didn't mind losing the tub. The sink, though retro, reminded me of the sinks in an old hospital & had to go. The toilet was pretty nasty & probably would have been fine with a good cleaning & a new seat, but new toilets are relatively cheap so I got a new toilet, too. And, no, I don't know why there was such an extensive filtering system in the bathroom.







There's still some painting left to do in the bathroom (and my camera is still missing) so "after" pics will have to wait for a bit (but hopefully by next weekend!).
