The final chapter on our bathroom renovations...


 Didn't think we'd ever finish these bathrooms, with all the problems we encountered along the way.  It was truly a learning experience.  It wasn't fun dealing with the walls and popcorn ceilings, but I truly enjoyed deciding on the colors to use for painting the walls and decorating.  
I was really pleased with how some of my angel collections were revived in the guest bathroom, achieving the Parisienne-look I was going for.  It's unfortunate that we're still dealing with the bifold mirror doors that we needed to enclose the washer and dryer area.  Twice, the orders arrived flawed (mirrors stained and cracked) and requiring bottom tracking, which meant drilling through our newly tiled floor.  We finally gave up on the idea of bifold mirror doors, going for a more traditional one that will fit our specifications.

Here's a pic of the bifold doors we're ordering this time around.

 In the master bath, I decided to extend the tropical theme we had in our bedroom.  I recently repainted our bedroom to match a new set of bedding and just used a lighter shade of that color for the bathroom.  




Accessorizing was simple since I had most of it already.  I replaced the black iron mirror  behind the toilet with metal palm leaves and used the shower curtain that we had in the guest bath previously.  

Here's the master bath tub after The Bathtub Man did his magic!

I will post pics of our bifold doors when they get installed.  In the meantime, thanks for reading about our bathroom renovation adventure.  I hope you enjoyed the transitions as much as I did.
