Our New Master Bathroom!

This project was started 30 days ago today! Our original time line was ~2 weeks give or take a few days and our only real set back was 1 1/2 weeks of no air conditioning upstairs and it was just to hot to work.
Here is what we did:
-removed builder grade mirror/fixtures
-removed wallpaper
-removed old flooring
-fixed floor, wall and ceiling problems
-prepped and tiled floors
-painted ceiling
-painted walls
-replaced mirrors
-replaced quarter round
-caulked trim, tub and shower and around vanity
-painted trim
-replaced one of the light fixtures & all other "hardware" (we had already done a lot of this before including all the towel racks, tp holder and faucets)
-add shelves on the back wall for more storage
-get bins for the back wall shelves
-get new shower curtain
-get new towels

As you can see it was quite the project, but not a complete gut, it seems every time we redo a bathroom its a little more, maybe next time we will tear it all apart.

Now here are the photos of the new bathroom before I put anything back in to it:

And here it is with everything all moved back in:





We are excited to be moved back in but we aren't quite done.  We still need to take the door off and repaint it due to it coming off its track (its a pocket door) and it got pretty scratched up and unfortunately the trim paint didn't match like we had hoped so we have to paint the window trim too.  But overall they don't affect our ability to be in the bathroom now (when we take the door off we will use the other one for a day or so).  I am also not 100% on the bins I have chosen for the shelves, a few may be changed out over the next few days!  Hope you like all that we have done!
