Project Staus(es)

Exterior painting... Done! :) Well, 'cept trim. Minor detail, right?
We spent that last few weeks re-doing the guest bath. Remember this post? In less than 10 days it went from the following two pictures to what you will find further below. :):) We had a bit of a "must-be-done-by-date" as we have company all this week for the Thanksgiving holiday! Although we wouldn't mind sharing a bathroom, it is just so much more convenient for our guests to have their own. :)
Bathroom BEFORE...
20+ year-old cabinet, barely-flushable toilet with oak (NASTY) toilet seat, plastic towel bar, gross, bland tile with un-matching dark gray grout:
Moldy shower grout, scratched tub, old shower bar...
New tub walls braced. We bought a kit from Lowes... and now we have no more grout to scrub!!!! I love it!
Peter flew right through the flooring; it looks great too!
New toilet! (who knew this would be so exciting?!?)
Kitty inspects the new cherry cabinet...
And...
Dun
Dun
Dun
DUN...
The mostly done, fully functional but details-still-need-to-be-finished guest bathroom! We have lots of drywall patching to do, but for now it works for our company! :) And I LOVE the way it's all turned out. We flipped this project from functional to completely demo'd to functional again in less than 10 days... not bad! :)
As always, I still have plenty of painting to do, so a full reveal will come later, but this gives you an idea of how it has changed up til' now!

pretty cool! I love how excited you get over big and little details - still wonder what you're both going to do when the projects come to and end....

Peter must be a pro now at these hardwood floors. Ready to do ours? :) ha - even if you were, we aren't so no worries.

@Diana - I'm not sure I'm a pro, but it definitely goes faster and I make less mistakes. :-) Ready when you are!

@Jane & Dianna - I'm not sure what we'll do when we're done. Start over? Maybe just read a few books and do nothing for a while? :-)
