So when we moved into this house, the basement bathroom left much to be desired.
Notice the cute little one modeling how to use the cabinet!
This is what it looked like when we first looked at this house (notice the gross shower surround..ick)
The ugly and outdated vanity and sink...not to mention the nasty floor
The ugly and outdated vanity and sink AND mirror cabinet AND light fixture
More of the nasty floor
This is what Jordan and Jaicee had to live with that summer that they lived here...sorry guys!
So we decided to fix it up...after all, it couldn't be too hard right? It is tiny, and we wouldn't need very many supplies. Sounded pretty easy. Of course, we had never done anything like this before...ever.
So we got started.
It ended up being way more disgusting than originally thought, and way more work.
But it was fun! At least I had fun.
Turns out that things are much harder when you don't have the right tools. And turns out that tools are pretty darn expensive. But it's okay, because now we have the right tools...for next time! Like when we do the kitchen and our bedroom and such.
Anyway, after way more money than we thought, and way more time than we anticipated, we finished.
We replaced EVERYTHING except the bathtub itself.
And we LOVE it!!!

Wow that turned out way cute! I would have no idea how to do that. Looks great
nice.
you almost make me want to buy a house so i can do stuff like that to it. but i'll probably stick to redecorating my parents' house during the summer, for now.
You guys did awesome! It looks soooo good!
Those darn projects always end up being way harder and way more expensive than expected!! I lived in a whole house of them. BUT you guys did AMAZING!! I love the colors and everything. Good job!!
Hey, we were just grateful to have our own little bathroom down there, even if it was in the "before" condition. It looks REALLY good! You guys have like a brand new house now!
LOVE IT!!! So cute! Those kind of projects can be so fun at times and really frustrating! But in the end it feels so good to have it done and there is a beam of pride! You guys did great!!!
oh my goodness,THAT LOOKS GORGEOUS!! Wanna come do mine now? it is still cement and insulation...:)
To answer your comment on my blog... Yes, I do have a garage. We lived in WAY to many apartments in cache valley before we bought our house, so when we looked, It was a necessity to have a garage. It still baffles me they build houses here WITHOUT garages. Its too cold and winter is hard on cars, So I am truly deeply sorry you don't have one. I can't imagine having to scrape my windows when its negative 15 in the mornings! OUCHIE!!!
