Cuarto de Baño

Been kinda busy. The Jones had a gig this past Saturday for a wedding and reception, and we have another one at Riley's Irish Pub in Helena this Friday. My mom and dad are driving out from Portland to hear us! Hope we do our best. :) School is going well. I think I'm finally in the groove in 3 of my 4 classes. I don't think I'll be "grooving" on the last one (Art History) until we have our first test next week and I have a better idea of whether I'm studying the right way!

In the meantime, I had a few minutes so... on to the downstairs bathroom.

Why anyone would think this is a nice treatment of the room, I have no idea. The flooring has some of the same green in it as the formica countertop, but other than that, this is a barren, lifeless wasteland of a bathroom!

Happily, this room doesn't need much work to make it sing a sweeter tune. I'll start with some COLOR on the walls. YAY COLOR!

Eventually I will replace the flooring with some tile. I can't stand linoleum.  I'll probably stick with something simple and beautiful. I'm saving the flash and amazement for the upstairs bathroom remodel! I'd love to replace the formica... can a person tile over formica?  Hmmmm.

Here's a view of the sink. The faucet will need to be replaced. I don't like those squatty, apartment building taps.

It doesn't have to be spectacular, something like this will do:

Tap And you know what? That's about it! Easiest room so far. What do you think?

It has great potential with the minimum of effort - and you're just the one to do it. It IS boring I agree... and the green is not-so-awfully-very appealing!

Enjoy your weekend with TSOC and singing!

yeah you can totally tile over formica. Hack off that backsplash and put some of that cement backerboard on top, and tile away.

you have projects to keep you busy forever now! :)
