Before:
There's another thing in this bathroom that, personally, I don't care for: drop ceilings. I have two problems with them:
1. I just don't like the look of them in my house. Drop ceilings are easy and fine in basements and other buildings-I just don't care for them in the main living parts of my house.
2. I'm leery of what's above them. We torn one down and found a dead bird in-between the ceiling and the drop ceiling. Since then, they've scared me.
So...the wallpaper, floor and drop ceiling had to go.
Eeewww....I'll admit it-I'm a little embarrassed of this picture. I mean, the floor looks sooo gross. But, that's just what a floor looks like when you remove laminate flooring, I guess. And...we're close, right? So I'll let you into my gross little bathroom :-)
I went completely bold with the color. Usually I prefer whites and very light colors but chose a darker green. I'm liking the result :-)
If you're wondering what the area next to the toilet is, it is a closet. When we dug up the flooring, Jesse discovered that it used to be a shower. We knew we were already building another full bathroom upstairs (and it would be a lot of work for a tiny shower) so decided to keep it a closet.
Finally, we tiled the floor and put in an adorable little pedestal sink and new toilet lid.
Aahhh...now that's more like it. No more eyes.
