Since my last bathroom update we have tided up but we're still in the in-between stages. After Neils parents left on the Sunday (weeks ago now) we were left with a fully functioning bathroom but with a long list of finishing touches to be done.
Here's a breakdown so we can cross them off one by one.
Our bargain blue paint from Homebase just doesn't look dramatic enough to really make the room and it should. I think it should be bold and grand to suit the rest of the suite. So it's goodbye mountain rain (which is no longer on their website) - it looked a bit like this...
Fill in holes in wall left by tiles, screws, nails and bad plastering.(Sunday 13th November)- Make good bumpy walls
Choose paint colours(Saturday 5th November)Test paint colours next to tiles/coving etc.(Sunday 20th November)- Clean and repaint bath
- Tile remaining walls
- Stick and paint skirting board
- Finish cutting and sticking down flooring
- Wipe down and paint all walls, (decide which colour goes where)
- Find and hang bathroom mirror
- Find bathroom cabinet and arrange delivery
- Choose bathroom fittings
The bad news for today is that although we love the white we have chosen for the bathroom (that sounds mad to me, how can there be a good or bad white but I am convinced).

So we were thinking of going for something a bit more like this instead...
