Bathroom Demo

It's official, we've started work on the kids' bathroom.

Here's what it looked like before we moved in...

We did some minor work to get us through the last year, until we could put some time/energy into it --->

And here's where we are now...


That's more cast-iron pipe on the left.  
We've replaced it up to the first floor with PVC, and will now extend up to the attic where it vents out of the roof.

The vinyl floor is coming out.  My first thought was to do a herringbone patterned floor tile, but I've just realized that almost all of the inspiration pictures I've collected for this project on Pinterest have hardwood floors.  Plus, it might be better than tile, since the floors are pretty uneven (typical of a house this old!) 

We've bought wainscoting to put halfway up the walls.

We've decided to keep the tub, but the shower doors had to go.

 And we're going to do tile on the walls, so we ripped out the plastic.  

Check out the original construction along the side wall.... LOVE the wide boards!

The vanity has been taken out.
The new one is ordered & should arrive in about a week.

The light fixture is staying (we put it in last year).
We're getting a new mirror.

Some more old wallpaper was hiding behind there.




The window & door moldings do not match the rest of the house's, so we're going to replace them with as close as we can find.

Lots to do, but it's a start!
