After a lot of stripping old surfaces from the walls and floor, rehabbing the cabinets, replacing the sink and countertop, and our first attempt (with a lot of help) at wallpapering, the bath is finally done. A little patience and planning (see previous post) paid off, and we are very happy with what we accomplished on a very limited budget. The colors turned our perfect, especially since we wanted to work with (instead of demoing) the once awkward light purple tile in the shower. The surprise find was the $40 light fixture (that's a circular flourescent bulb) we purchased off the shelf at Home Depot. (I cannot even find it on their website.) The finishing touch came last weekend when we successfully bid on a graphic design print at Art Over Easy 5 (a benefit for the SIUC Art and Design Department).
