Painting

It's really the finishing touches on the walls for this bathroom remodel. I ran the molding around all of that shiplap to finish it off. Also had to finish the mud/tape/sand process on the drywall, and it turned out pretty smooth even if the framing behind it is crap.

We decided just to get the whole bathroom white. Started with a coat of kilz primer since we had plywood, painted drywall, and new drywall to cover up. Getting a consistent color with no bleed through was going to be tough enough, kilz it. While I had the kilz out, I also primed over the orange color in the bedroom.We already had some lilac picked up for the bedroom. But the tiny bathroom being white should make it feel bigger.

We couldn't get all of the furniture out of the way to kilz the entire bedroom

After the kilz went on, it was time for final painting

installed the medicine cabinet and lights

Now it's purple with a bit of orange left


And I was able to install the top shelf
So I got the walls done, then was able to put up the medicine cabinet and lights, also replaced the GFCI outlet in the wall. Getting to install the top shelf was really cool, but now it's time to shred that tile floor and install something else.
