Coffin Half Bath Finished, Nursery Almost Complete
























It really is a dramatic difference. Hard to believe that the coffin is gone and our sleek new bathroom is here. Everything is changed but the floor: new walls, new wall color, new baseboards, new sink, new toilet, new mirror, new light fixture. Actually, once the walls were done it only took about 2 days to finish the rest.

The complete album is up:

I still will add blinds and decorate. I will post some more photos when the decor is totally done. We are thinking about putting some of my Tibetan art and masks in here; keep an Asian theme going.

The nursery is also almost done. The walls are done and most of the trim and touch-up is done. Now we are waiting for the new carpet (July 3), new blinds (shipping July 6), and the furniture (which probably will not all be here until Mandy's parents bring the new crib with them when they come for the delivery.

Nursery Painted, New Fan


We just got our first coat on the nursery walls. Second coat will go on tonight. It is a pale, semi-neutral green. The room will have a safari/jungle theme for our little hunter. It will mostly be tans and greens. I also installed a new fan/light last night.

Once the walls are done we will paint the trim, replace all of the outlets and switches with Decora stuff. We are putting down new carpet as soon as all of the painting is done. Only 7 weeks to go before our little boy arrives.

I have finally gotten back to work on the coffin half bath. It is ready to be sanded down and should only take some touch up mud in a few places after sanding.

Check back on the web albums as I have added some photos in the nursery and coffin half bath folders.
