It's Taking Forever

I just need to remember that we're doing 3 rooms, not just adding a bathroom.


MASTER BATHROOM

This is the old vanity in the Jack & Jill bathroom, photo taken January 1, 2020.


This is that same wall, April 26, 2020.

I had these boards ready to put onto this wall for a month, it took 1 hour to put them up. 
Still needed:
Light replaced
Mirror hung
Mirror frame made
Backsplash
1 Piece of trim on floor
caulk around sink & tub


This was the longest/fastest of all the projects


The tile we got for the side walls & between the backsplash & wood, now that I see them all together I think I want something with more color, this is pretty but drab.


NEW BATHROOM

The shower is in and drywall has been sanded


Today texture was sprayed on the walls, it should be ready for me to paint tomorrow.

New Bathroom So Far


This is when the room was the ending of being our bedroom. Whoever put white carpet in a farmhouse bedroom was nuts. At this stage we knew the carpet was going to be removed so we didn't take huge steps to protect it & keep it pristine like we did for the first 4 years we lived here.

We removed the carpet and I painted the wall, not knowing quite where the shower would be 


When you don't know exactly how to do plumbing, it will take you a lot longer to do projects. It also takes longer when you get two different sets of parts.


Plumbing finished and it doesn't seem to leak. Drywall looks good.

Door removed, plumbing partially finished

Its almost ready for me to paint the first coat. 

Today the fan hole was cut to fit the new fan, which will have a light, fan and heater. The light and heater will have one shared switch so they will come on at the same time. The heater will have its own switch. I'd prefer that the fan & heater be on timers.
