Since the begining, the things I have done to the bathroom
- Taken everything out of it
- Scraped paint off of the walls and ceiling (not my favorite job)
- Two coats of kills over the areas where paint was scraped
- Tried to patch a hole in the ceiling, I have spackle and I need joint compound. Let me know if you know what that means.
- Removed the medicine cabinet and found even more razor blades. Whoever thought it would be a good idea to dispose of them behind the medicine cabinet clearly never had to replace a medicine cabinet.
- Picked out paint colors. (Thank you Kelly)
- Taped. Between the tile, the sink, the shower and the doors, my bathroom is all edges.
- Painted the walls yellow. (Again, thank you Kelly)
- Took the door off of the hinges.
- Took the drawers and cabinet doors out of the vanity.
- Sanded the drawers, cabinet doors, vanity, door and door frame. (Again, not my favorite job although not quite as bad as scaping paint).
- Painted the fronts of the doors and cabinets yellow.
- Painted the vanity blue.
- Painted the door.
- Painted the door frame.
- Used Killz on the bottom inside of my vanity. It was foul, it needed it.
- Installed the medicine cabinet. (I really thought this was going to be my least favorite job and it wasn't traumatic at all.)
- Replaced the doorknob on the door. Note to Kelly, had the same problem we had last time. I missed your help.
- Put in new hardware on the cabinets and tried to install them. Note here that I say tried. While the hinges fit the doors, they no longer close properly and I'm not sure what to do about it. Again, call me if you know.
Things I still need to do to my bathroom:
- Make the cabinets close properly.
- Touch up lots and lots of paint chips.
- Put my towel rack back on the door.
- Get a dark green shower curtain.
- Patch my ceiling. (See number 4 above).
- Put everything back in the bathroom. (I actually cannot wait to do that one because it means that both my bathroom and my bedroom will be clean again.)
- Fix the track to one of my drawers. Anyone good with a hacksaw?
- Clean paint off the walls, the tub, the sink and the floor.
- Clean dirt and grime out of the bathroom.
- Get a new shower curtain liner.
- There must be more. Right now I'd be happy if my cabinet doors closed properly.
