Bathroom Redo, pt.1


The bathroom tile had been redone, but very poorly. There are several cracked tiles, and the grout was sloppily slapped in. The grout is also white and unsealed, which made for some yucky spots! There is absolutely no storage in the bathroom, which someday we will remedy.


After 7 hours of excruciating labor, I finished staining the grout. It took so long because I had to literally paint it in a straight line as much as possible since the grout itself was splattered all over and very uneven. Let's say that I had a very lively chiropractic visit the next Monday.

I spent some time today trying to configure some short-term storage and decor for the bathroom. I've decided that a runner is perfect, and this one even has the right blue in it! Thanks, Linda! We would actually like to use this rug in the hallway, but for now, it's needed more here. Sheet and drape-covered "shelves" will serve until we find those perfect pieces!
