...we've accomplished a lot in the Hallway Bath...we removed the vinyl flooring...
...it was only stapled down...so we were really happy about that...no glue...
...the Man got the new lights installed over my patched walls...funny you can see a blurry photo of me taking the photo...haha...
...I really like the new lights...sort of a 20's vibe...
...and so much better than the bar lights that hurt my eyes...
...the floor is ready for new tile...
...and the Man installed these retro push button lights...I love them a lot...
...and matching plates for the outlets...
...in the water closet/bath area...a double one with the fan switch...
...not sure you could see it very well in the floor photo above...but there was a sizeable gap between the luan and the wall...as it was covered by over an inch of baseboard and quarter round it was not an issue...but with mosaic tile...I wanted a solid floor all the way to the wall...we're going to be using Ditra for the first time...and there's a band that makes the room 'waterproof'...so...I used an Ardex floor leveling compound to fill in all the gaps around the room...
...and then it was time for the really stressful job of removing the countertop...remember the Man had just busted up the faded yellowed one in the Master bath...but this one is salvageable/usable...so we're trying to save it...but make it small enough that we can carry it...it really weighs a lot...
...we managed to slide it out from under the mirror without breaking the mirror...so a huge sigh of relief...
...the Man prepped the little saw we had gotten for the tile cutting in the Master Bath when we bumped the cabinet out to make a larger surface for the countertop...
...and made a neat cut up to the backsplash...where the countertop broke in two...rather cleanly...I think it's still usable as the new owner can either sand that or cut it to fit their new cabinet...
...and so we have two single vanity tops to donate instead of one double...and we can easily carry each piece now...it still takes both of us...
...and finally I primed the cabinet...
~Have a lovely day!
Nice that the vinyl was only stapled down....can't wait to see it all go back new. Love, K
