A Weekend Project!!

Well, our upstairs bathroom updates happened a lot sooner than anticipated... it seems that we made up for our quiet January all on one weekend. We came home with new flooring and  working men's beer Saturday afternoon. The flooring tiles went in pretty well, even with the claw foot tub and its pipes, until we had to undo what our plumber did to install our new toilet! A bit of setback Saturday night, but we came up with a plan by the time we went to bed. Thank goodness for YouTube videos.  

Sunday we finished the toilet part of this puzzle and a few end pieces. A big win without a water leak! Here are the pictures of "Before" and "After."

The floor turned out much better than we expected. Now we definitely need a new smaller zebra design rug in front of the sink. Joe even kept on going and installed a new faucet, not a simple job when dealing with 40 plus year old valves and fixtures. This bathroom project was yet again an impromptu one... a brand new toilet led to a trip to a store to check out flooring options, and then the transformation happened. Joe the plumber was a super trooper to go along with my ideas/plans. He knew he couldn't stop me :)
