Installed!

Washer dryer and sink went in today. I think things will be finished tomorrow!

The cabinet on the left will go over the laundry sink. 

We are very pleased by how well the washer dryer fits in this space. 

The door still needs to go back up, but there is a lot of room back there, especially compared to the prior setup. 

We could potentially add a super tiny sink in this corner, but it may not be necessary. 

Gratuitous shot of the shower, which is now totally caulked and good to go. 

All done

It's not perfect. But the painting is done, and I think we are convinced that in the future, it will be done by professionals. 

At least today I got minimal paint on the floor. 

After the first coat, we ran some errands, then came home and did the second.

Our contractor came for awhile as well, and he brought the shower walls. We love how they look with the blue. 

Supposedly by the end of the week, we'll have a functioning bathroom again!

Yaaaaay!!!

Painting Day

We primed the bathroom and painted the ceiling last night. 

We are tackling the walls this morning. I'll post pictures when that is done. 

Grouted

The floor is grouted!!! We are both super pleased with our tile and grout choices, but finally having the floor had us rethinking the paint. 

So, more sampling. This was a color we had sampled, but we wanted to see how it looked near the tile. 

We are pretty happy with it. It's an Olympic color called Abracadabra. 

And, since we had settled on the other color, I had to dig the sample out of the recycling. Awesome. 

We'll be using plain white on the trim. Unfortunately the trim was already poorly painted once. 

Hopefully another coat will actually hide the blue. 

Floor!

When I got home today, the tile was down. It still needs to be grouted, but I can see enough to feel happy with what we picked. 

I think it will look even better when the walls are painted. 

Look what's missing!

Apologies for the double post, this one didn't go up over the weekend!

That's right folks, the old Washer and Dryer got picked up by Habitat Saturday morning. (The Habitat ReStore will come haul away your functional appliances. Also we found out that their Columbia store will start having Sunday hours soon.)

Here is our new stacked unit. We got the biggest one we could. Check out the dryer!

Plus, the lint trap is at the front!

Other bathroom progress is being made. 

Shower pan went in!

More paint samples went up. 

We think we are going with the boring gray on the left. It's such a small space that I'm worried the darker gray paint will be too dark. 

Unfortunately, the washer dryer isn't installed. So I spent Sunday at the place quarters go to die. 

Also, they had two sizes of dryer but the price was the same. I don't really know the difference and was too embarrassed to ask, so I used the giant dryers until my quarters ran out and then took my mostly dry clothes home.
