Late post today…because I have been cleaning out the part of our old third bedroom that is (hopefully) soon to become our master bathroom!
Until very recently, it looked like this…it was even worse at times!
It served as a total junk room – full of packing boxes and Christmas things and just as a general home for things I didn’t know what to do with or want to deal with! :)
But as of now, it looks like this!
Not bad, eh?
There is a LOT of work to do in here! Plumbing, of course, but we’ll also be taking out the current hardwood floors and laying new subfloor and maybe/hopefully some sort of floor-warming system underneath whatever floors we choose. We’ll be re-insulating the outer walls and re-directing the vents in some way or another. We also have to re-do some electrical work that we already did a few years ago since in that time the bathroom layout plans have changed.
Just for fun…we’re considering using these vanities from Home Depot:
And that seems to be the main thing I know right now :) I’m not even sure what color I’d like to paint the room. :) I’ve started looking up some plumbing fixtures online (we like Delta showers because you can change the temperature independently of the on/off/flow…so you can pick a temp you like and keep it there! I’ll post more about that as I find our fixtures) and started looking into flooring and medicine cabinets and whatnot. The finishes are so fun in a bathroom, but of course, so so much of the work is electrical and plumbing. I want really good exhaust fans if possible! The humidity in bathrooms seems to wreak havoc on anything inside of it!
Hopefully we’ll make quicker progress in the bathroom than on most of our projects :) so stay tuned. :)
What have you been up to this week? Any advice on exhaust fans?
