Sorry ladies . . . . you are not going to be able to watch Jay get ready in the mornings. We now have curtains in our bathroom. Yippee. Hope it does not mess up the women on Oak Street's view. But also we have finished most of the work on the bathroom so here is the mid week update. Keep in mind this was my cheap fix to the bathroom. We have this bathroom on the long list of renovations but since this is our only shower, it has to wait till we add more showers.
Before
After
So here is what we have done so far . . . . the trim has been painted white. 1 coat oil based primer and 2 coats water based trim paint. Removed old towel bar. Hung mirror and iron shelves. Touched up areas with caulk. Filled some holes in the walls.
And . . . I decided to get crafty. I used this step by step to make "no sew" roman shades - http://365days2simplicity.blogspot.com/2011/04/easy-no-sew-roman-shades.html . Very good blog. Everything worked like described. Only thing I would recommend is putting a little bit of hot glue on the very end of each blind as reinforcement.
I also added a ribbon down either side because it felt like it needed something.
Also the curtains could use a lining but I will probably not do that. Kind of done with this project :) Still need to hang the curtain rod and thinking about a new light fixture and faucet. Not sure if it is worth it or not. I am sure I will think of something else.
Gotta go . . . . need to get someone out of timeout. Spends a lot of time there these days :)
