🦋 Bathroom Renovation
 For the past few months, we've been in the process of renovating our 2nd floor bathroom -- workers in and out of the house, trucks driving up and delivering large heavy objects, paint odors and sawdust mixing with our air... It's finished now! And what an improvement -- the old bathroom just was not a well put-together room. Besides that the tiles were old and ugly and the fixtures falling apart, the layout was nonsensical. You pushed the door open into a narrow corridor next to the bathtub and at the end of the bathtub there was a little bit of space and then the toilet; the sink was placed so that you would always knock into the corner of it when you were going by there.
We rearranged the space pretty radically and as I said, I think it's a huge improvement. Before and after pictures are here. The design and the painting (which still has a little bit of touching up to be done) are my and Ellen's contributions, the other work was contracted out.
 Update: I posted a rough floor plan of the before and after layouts here.

Looks great! BTW, plan drawings might help for comprehension...

Yeah, I was thinking that same thing last night but was too lazy to
act on it. Maybe later on I will put some up.

I happened to stumble across your blog and feel exactly what you are going through. We had a bathtub surround with a "titleboard" type covering for our soaker jacuzzi tub. This is our little slice of heaven, but after a few years the tileboard started to get mold spots so we had to remodel the tub. That kick started a whole bathroom remodel with everything from $2,500 dollar quotes for title to 2 new pieces of bathroom cabinetry. After it was all said and done we finished around $330, with the same tileboard we started with but everything looks "NEW" again. I think this is the best feeling in the world. I can send in before and after pictures if you want to post??
