Bathroom remodel

Here's some pics of what we have done in the basement so far. My hubby installed an electrical box and an out let. Ya my freezer is down in the basement and not in my washroom. Unfortunately I have already filled the empty space! New hot water heater. The old one was in our bedroom closet and had started leaking out the bottom. We wanted it in the basement and just hadn't gotten around to moving but at this point we had no choice. This leaves us with yet another project though. The old hot water heater has to be removed and then we will have to start tearing the closet apart to fix the water damage.
We decided to remove the wall between the hallway that will lead into the bathroom and our bedroom. We plan to use this space as an office area and felt it would feel more open with the wall gone.

sewing and crafting area

Here is my sewing space so far. It was a built in entertainment center. We don't watch much TV so I decided I could better use this space. Next weekend I plan to pull everything out and paint the walls. Still trying to decide on a color. I'd like something that doesn't stand out to much since this is the first thing you see when you come in the front door. Although we do plan to put up bi fold doors at some point. Problem is I don't know when that will be. Could be in a month could be in a year. All depends on what is left after we finish the bathroom. All that said I am leaning toward lavender. I'll also be putting up peg board on the left wall for more storage. Here is what it looked like before: (and yes we still refuse to pay for TV. Although we have change to an out door antenna!)

Bathroom Remodel

We are finally remodeling our master bathroom. YAY!!! We haven't been able to use the shower for 4yrs. The whole bathroom had problems so we decided to rip it all out and start over.

Before pic's of the bathroom. Double sink-this area won't be part of the bathroom when we are finished. There will be a wall before the double sink. We are shrinking the bathroom to and 8x8 square, putting in a wall with a pocket door. This space here connects to our bedroom and will house my home office.


Shower Stall, garden tub and rediculously large mirror.
This is the opening where the wall and door will be.
