Powder Room Remodel

Have I mentioned our current remodel project? I guess I have shown some photos and videos of the job previously, but never formally talked about it. So we (read: Ben) started tearing apart our powder room in the winter, though he was also working on putting up dry wall in the garage at the same time. We gutted the bathroom and it sat for months while he worked on the garage, and then the garden, and then the sprinklers. Ben would go in to the small empty space every few weeks and pick away at a project: replacing the sub-floor, repairing the drywall, and so on. And then we sort of hit a time crunch and decided we needed to put more energy into completing the powder room remodel before our family arrives to Colorado for our wedding.

So here we are, so so close to finishing. It is unbelievable how much time it can take to gut and put back together such a tiny space!



Even with "help" from this little guy. 


The wall color and wainscoting was my idea (and I love it!). 


The floor, Ben's. He is quite proud of the way the floor looks. I was skeptical of the large tile in a small space (just like I was in the condo!), but I have to admit, I love it now that it's in.

After nine long months of work, I can't believe we'll soon have our little bathroom back. And it will be put to good use right away. Grandma Sheyla arrives next Saturday, followed closely by Cheri, Todd and family on Sunday.

One down, three to go! (And don't you think we could use one in the basement, Ben?!)
