New Bathroom




It is 100% finished, as of today. Jesse just finished and hung the medicine cabinet, and yes, he made it. He also made the sink cabinet. I am blown away on a daily basis by his amazing skill. We were super bad about taking before pictures of the bathroom, but if you have been to our house you know how ugly it was. It was a total gut job, Jesse ripped everything apart, down to the original studs. We left the exterior wall as exposed brick, and painted it white, as well as the rest of the bathroom. The stackable washer and dryer were a new addition, which has been amazing! (No more going to the nasty ass basement to clean laundry.) The tiles in the shower are matte subway tiles, and the tiles on the floor are 2 inch green matte hexagons. We gave up our tiny closet that we had, to fit the washer and dryer, but we have SO much storage in both of the cabinets that Jesse built. That is the glorious thing about custom work, you get to make things as big as you want! Well, as long as it will fit. I have yet to find a fabric that I like to make a shower curtain, so right now there is just a clear shower curtain liner. I think I need to fill a basket with toys to keep in there, because it is really hard to take a shower with a 14 month old in the room..... the shower curtain is basically open the whole time (because Maple is trying to climb in), resulting in a very wet floor, and a very wet Maple.
