Here are some photos of our guest bathroom project. We painted, tore out the old tile, installed new Italian porcelain tile, hung one of my paintings, got a new shower curtain and bath mat and tah-dah!
We install the red oak baseboard tomorrow morning and this project is finished just in the nick of time. Our deadline was my mom's arrival on Wednesday. I can't wait to see her.
I'll post another photo after we install the baseboard.

What a great job! I must confess to getting a bit of a happy surprise to see the original pink fixtures! I really do love it when anyone can keep the integrity and still spruce up the room as you have done! Can't wait until we can do that here!
Thanks, Sherry! I do like pink, although I probably wouldn't have chosen that color if I had been the original owner. (I'm a big chicken sometimes and would have been a little more conventional. However, I did paint one wall in my living room purple, so maybe I'm not as big a chicken as I think.) I believe Connie and George (the original owners) really loved this house, so I like leaving some of the things they did to the house and adding our touch.
We sure are learning a lot.
Candy, it looks great! You're going to finish before we do. LOL! We always seem to run out of steam at the end of a project...and it takes a while to finish the last details.
Thanks for visiting my blog! I'm not sure what kind of mums...but I am going to ask the next time I'm at the store. I just love them!
It looks so fresh. Hope the baseboards went in easily. Home projects are always a lot of work, but they are so rewarding.
Deb, you guys sound like us. What kept us going was knowing my mom was coming for a visit.
I enjoy reading your blog. I think your art is terrific and I enjoy your photos, too. Those flowers were so pretty!
Marie, thank you! I agree that DIY is rewarding! What fun to say, "We did that!" (unless it's really obvious that we did that:))
