major remodel

We have been majorly busy over this past week. The Jensen's have been here helping us do the major projects in the bathroom and completely update the mantle and fireplace..here is our wonderful progree (thanks mom and dad!) for before shots...
fireplace
the tile pulled up, it was a breeze in the master but there was linoleum tile under the current linoleum in the main bath that was a pain..
and the new stuff going down, you can see the old counters on the left
the new tile all ready for grout, we just love the pattern

and the toilet going in, a 2 person task
the final project: new tile, toilet, vanity top with sink, painted vanities in both baths, and new baseboards and door trim (and before paint, mirror, light fixture, and tp and towel holders) basically we have all new bathrooms that are CLEAN
Then the mantle....we did the reno before the parents got here

We had to cut a hole for the electrical to run behind the tv and redo the drywall behind the old tile

the final project..we got a second bookcase to balance out the wall, ran electical and tv cords, mounted the tv, and retiled the fireplace

we just lOVE all the changes and really appreciate all the help. Keep a watch for our next few projects, painting the exterior trim white and putting in engineered wood floors throughout the whole house.
