Upgrade

Alright, get ready for a billion pictures because it's coming your way. We just re-did our bathroom so that GG's scooter could fit in here. First we widened the door way, but after we did that we realized we had to get rid of the counters that were here too because they were just too big and bulky and her chair still could not fit. So out they went.
We were pretty excited to redo this bathroom, if it weren't for GG it probably never would have gotten done so now we had an excuse to make it our own.
And so we did.
Here we are taking a picture of us in our "old" bathroom.
Nog just finished taking down the side mirror.... now what?
 Now, Trent came over and helped take out the old counter top do you see that awesome wall paper behind it? Just in case you can't I'll give you a close up.
Here it is! Behind the mirror lied this beauty. So crazy I wish I saw this bathroom when the whole thing had wallpaper on it or better yet I wish I saw this whole house long before we got our hands on it.
 We got new tile since there was no tile to match the rest of the bathroom after we took out the counter tops. Here is the new baseboard that Nog put in.
We went to Dunn Edwards to get the paint. We came home painted the bathroom and half way through realized! Shoot! They gave us flat paint instead of low sheen. Meaning, very hard to clean and looks kinda weird if painted all over a bathroom. So we finished what we started thought maybe we could get away with it and keep it flat but it looked to weird and plus it would have drove me crazy so we went back to the store got the right paint and started all over. I was glad we did it again.

 This is the glue Nog used to put up the giant mirror up. He got creative and wrote our initials on the wall, and there they will lie, forever behind our mirror.
 This is the transition tile leading into the new tile
 And...... Dadadaduuuuuuuuunnn. Complete!





 So happy to be done.
