The Guest Bathroom Remodel: Day 2

Day 2 of our remodel project started with demolition.  Who doesn't love to do a little demo?  We had to take off the trim and doors for the bathroom and the closet.  Teddy let me whack away at it first.  I'm not sure why he trusted me with the crowbar and hammer, but away I went.

Here's my first few swings with the hammer working to tear off that trim

And success, I've worked my way around the door and am pulling that trim right out of the wall

After I got all the trim off, Teddy worked on pulling out the door frames

Teddy had a few nails left in the walls, but I was amazed at how quickly those doors came down, and what a difference it made in the room to remove those old dark doors.  Remember what it used to look like?

Then Teddy got to work on some of the caulk repair in the tub, while I started painting the ceiling

Here I am trying out our handy dandy edging tool we just bought.  It's called the Shur-Line paint edger, and that thing is amazing!  No need to tape except for in a few tight spots.  It was so much quicker to get that done.  I'd highly recommend it.

While waiting for the ceiling to dry, Teddy just couldn't take the waiting any more and we decided to quick fit one of the doors to see what it would look like.  (...and see if it fit...)  Even just standing in there, it looks so amazing!  I can't wait until it is all finished.  Even Fozzie came by to check it out.

After a few hours the ceiling was dry enough for a second coat and then we got to work on the walls.  We went with the color Glass of Milk for the ceiling and Etched Glass for the walls.  It's a nice soft blue that really makes the white tiles pop vs. blending in like before.  Teddy's having some fun here painting away.

Finally the first coat of blue is done.  We decided to get one more thing done before calling it a day.

Installing our new and improved light fixture!!  It's more than twice as bright, and a lot more attractive than the old version.  Remember what that looked like?

It's quite the improvement, if I do say so my self. 

So, day 2 is done, and we are starting to see what the end product will look like. 

Tomorrow is Day 3, and will be all about the doors, and keeping our fingers crossed that it will be the last day.  But now that I've jinxed us, I'm sure there will be a day 4.  :)
