In the living and kitchen area we have a second bathroom (woot woot). It is a half bath (I think, there is a sink and toilet no shower/tub). The first thing we noticed is it was painted RED! It was terrifying color for such a small space. Secondly, the door to the bath opened in so in order to get in and close you you had to squeeze your body into a corner and pull the door shut around you. And a similar process was needed to get out. Very not functional. We decided immediately that the door had to go and we were going to install a sliding barn door (this is still in process). So we ripped everything out. Painted. Installed a new toilet, sink, and light fixture. And David put new trim and wainscoting around the sink. Now it is the prettiest second bath ever!
First removed the door frame
Then the toilet
Away with you haneous vanity
Trish helped remove the old linoleum just in time to install the hardwood, she also painted the whole bathroom but we have no photographic evidence for this event :(
David installed wainscot and added trim to the bathroom
and a new light fixture
We bought a pedestal sink (we had to return because it was shattered when we opened it boo HD)
Installed with trim!
David hung a mirror he made
And our pocket bathroom is finished (minus the door)
Woot Woot!
So if you come over and want to use the pocket bathroom we will go downstairs because there isn't a door. I haven't found the right one yet. I didn't take any pics of the toilet but it is super special and energy efficient. It has a button for number 1 and a button for number 2. Super high tech!
