Master Bathroom - Another Home Project Goal Underway

It’s busy and messy in our household once again!  We have started the master bathroom renovation, which was on our Home Project Goal list last year.  

Below, is a look at our master bathroom prior to beginning the renovation.

I have removed the wallpaper and border so far.

Now I need to spackle all the holes and make my final decision on a paint color. 

We’re installing a double sink vanity to replace the current single sink vanity.

007 - Copy

  We purchased the vanity cabinet, double sink vanity top, faucets, wall cabinet and two lighting fixtures at Lowes over the weekend.   It’s all sitting in the garage.

We would love to replace the tub/shower stall with a hot tub but that’s not going to happen unless we win the lottery and we all know that is wishful thinking.  006

So for now, our plans are to tile the upper wall above the tub/shower stall.  I’ve already picked out the tile, we just need to make another trip to Lowes to pick it up. 

We’re replacing the flooring with…

 007

…….floating vinyl planks manufactured by Armstrong.   

Zoomed: Armstrong 6"W x 36"L Exquisite Urethane Oak Floating Vinyl Plank

  It’s a water-proof flooring which makes it perfect for bathrooms, kitchens and basements. Supposedly you just peel, place and press.   We’ll see.  This will the first time using this product.    

We’ve ordered it and the expected delivery date is the 20th of February. 

Our master bathroom is very small but hopefully with all the changes it will make a big difference

As always I enjoy your visit and have a wonderful day.

  8. It looks like you've got a good size bathroom, Gail. I've seen smaller ~ my original bathroom at my old house for one! The best thing we did when we redid our bathroom was double sinks. Thankfully, our new place also had them already. I'm sure you must be very excited to get this project going. I'll be looking forward to seeing your future posts on this project!

  9. Oh I can't wait to see the flooring! When the floating vinyl planks were first available for DIYer's it was prohibitively expensive - I think I need to recheck on this product, it's really beautiful! We thought about a tub/shower redo, too, and found unless we could sell all of the grand kids, wasn't happening for us either! he he he!

    I can't wait to see your redo - it will be as beautiful as your other projects, I'm sure!

    Blessings,
    Donna

  14. Can't wait to see what you do with a small space. Our master bath is small too. Two sinks though, thank goodness! Not much wall space or storage though. I'm always looking for storage ideas.

  17. Hi Gail,
    I'm looking forward to seeing this second bathroom finished, the floor will be so pretty and I like the light fixture. What are you going to do about a tub curtain? Will you replace that as well? I'm very excited for you!
    We are planning on painting, putting in new light fixture and faucets in our one and only bathroom that's about half as big as yours.
    I had better get busy, and like you, one more thing will be off of my list.
    Hugs, Cindy
