Our Bathroom is Finished!

In all the photos we have taken since moving into our house, this is the "best" one I could find of what our bathroom looked like before we renovated it. It was so ugly that I didn't want to take photos of it...ever. Sadly I forgot to take some quality pictures before we decided to rip it apart.

The tiles are all down in this photo, but you can still see our disgusting (and awkward) sink that used to be in there. The ancient window is still there as well. I say the sink was awkward because of its shape, it was challenging to get into the bathroom without bumping into the door and then the corner of the sink. It was too big in this very small space. Everything was old and needing a huge update. 

After approximately 10 months from start to complete finish, we have our new bathroom!

Technically the reno started last April when I went to a baby shower for my cousin in Airdrie and came home to the tub surround being totally ripped out of the shower. That was a fun surprise :) However, it did get the ball rolling, which it needed to badly. But as anyone knows that lives in their renos, it's not always fun. Having no tub surround meant we were taking baths for weeks. The words "renovations" and "inconvenient" go hand in hand. I should mention that our downstairs bathroom was unusable. So yeah, we were happy to have this all finished. 

The majority of the bathroom was finished fairly quickly but Kenton was making the mirror ledge, medicine cabinet and the window frame. So thankfully we had a very liveable bathroom for the majority of those 10 months. 

Here you can see the mirror and ledge better. Pretty snazzy hey?

Here is the medicine cabinet. Ta da!

I really wanted a white shower curtain- what a challenge to find a nice one! This one is from Anthropologie, the last one and on sale. We used a double curtain rod so that a waterproof curtain could sit behind the fabric one. 

Inside the shower, we just did a simple tub surround. 

Our lighting was a bit...experimental. We're still not sure if we will keep it the way it is, but we can't stand all the other options out there so we will wait until we see something else we like.

Done!
