The topic: My bathroom is getting a makeover!

----------------------------------------------

A couple of months ago I said something about painting my bathroom. Brian was all over it, we went to Home Depot the next day and we brought home paint samples.   I looked at them and made a couple of choices. 

Asylum blue (thanks, Jolene) with nut house green trim. And white. The walls will be blue, the baseboard will be green. The door is white, with green accents and the cabinets will be the same. Brian really wanted to try some of the laminate flooring, I’ve been reluctant to do anything with wood because of the cats. But he swears the stuff that his brother used at their rental is okay with water (except we’re not talking about water are we?).  He picked up two at CostCo yesterday, said they were half the price that Home Depot is charging.

The blue walls have been painted, he just pulled out the toilet and he was surprised at what he saw.  I thought it was a nasty buildup of cat urine, but when I went in to look at it, it was a bunch of roots!  Growing up through the pipes, wound around the bottom of the toilet itself.  (I took pictures, I’ll post them when it’s all done.)

Ish! 

So, he’s going to paint the wall behind the toilet now, then lay the laminate.  Then will be the baseboard and board around the door.  The cabinet will come later, since his work that pays for everything is finally picking up. (Yay!)

I think my bathroom is gonna look beautious when it’s done.  He’s not sure of the colors I picked, but I am.



Laminate worked well for me and the pee, but we got fake tile laminate from Lowe’s we put in the house here would work better and I LOVE it! The cats haven’t peed on it, so not sure how well it would do under that condition…I’d say better than the wood lam, cause it fits very tight…I’d try it, as it’s not that expensive and since it’s the bathroom, not much and could be replaced.
