Finshed the Master Bath

We had a surprise expense. The toilet in both the bathrooms was cracked and leaking. Apparently when I cleaned them the scrubbing cleaned away the goo on the hidden crack and there was nothing left to hold back the water. My father-in-law is very particular about toilets and has very strong opinions about them. And even though he is far far away, we decided to honor his wishes and put in his preferred toilets. So the handyman came in and replaced them both. They are super tall and little kids are going to have to use a step stool to use them, but adults won’t hurt their knees when sitting and standing. 
 
It would be great if we could replace the knobs in the bathroom, but the dang things are almost impossible to get off without destroying the cabinets. Since we are keeping the original cabinets, the knobs are being left in place. The sink is scratched, but clean. And since our budget is running low and the base cabinet is a non standard size, we are just going to have to address this on the next go around. 

The cabinets where so extremely dirty. It took a lot of elbow grease to get them cleaned up. The former owner apparently had medical problems so there were spots of blood all over the bottom toe-kick of the cabinets. Cleaned the entire bathroom with a bleach solution and then again with soap and water to cover all the bases. 

Halfway through the final coat of paint in the bathroom, I ran out. So ran to the store to get another couple of 5 gallon buckets. Took my paint card with the color on it. Took a lid from a paint can that had the color label on it. Brought them both to the counter and said give me more of the same. Got it home. Went to go paint the next wall. It’s a different color. I was so mad. So the back wall of the bathroom is going to be a lighter shade of Dove White than the rest of the bathroom. Hopefully no one but me will notice and if they do, hopefully they like it. (There goes that hopefully again.) 

With that, the master bathroom is done. Everything is painted, repaired, and cleaned up. The only things that are going to go on the “Want to do Next Time” List for the bathroom is to install a exhaust fan through the closet to the outside, and replace the sink, cabinets, and knobs.
