Remember this blue toilet? Well, since it is now history, I will share with you our pretty new bathroom.
First I will show the before photos. The drawers were spray painted like this with blue paint.
The floor was white linoleum.
We had a blue tub and this Formica marble look around it, which was nice for the 1960's, but we wanted an update.
The two blue sinks were rusty and not as shiny as they used to be. The toilet also had rust and lime stains, which were nearly impossible to remove.
I'm so happy with our new pretty bathroom. It's restful and sweet. I hope you all have a lovely day today dear blogging friends. Love, Kathi

Beginning our project. My husband Stacey worked so hard to get the old flooring up.
He made trip after trip up the stairs to put new sub floor down.
Night after night after working all day for his company, he'd be doing this.
Here he is painting with his hand in his pocket again. You can see the old blue inside the closet. Our daughters Victoria and Jessica goofing off while painting the closet. They did a really good job.
Now comes the new tile floor.
He was always while working. He did such a great job. I'm so thankful for him and how hard he works. Okay, so the next picture is our pretty new bathroom.
We are thrilled with the way it turned out. We chose soft yellow, and creamy white walls, white tile floor and antique white porcelain.
My husband did everything himself except the plumbing and electrical.
He worked very hard putting in the Wayne's coating. I'm so proud of him.
We added this antique table and chair for the girls to sit and put on their make-up.
The shower is so nice and has an antique faucet.
Our neighbor made the cabinets for us. We created this counter top and little space for a night light around the backside of the shower.
He and I hung the mirror and towel bars together. I love the swivel mirror.

Oh, Kathi!
Your bathroom is delightful! I have a bathroom that we want to finish and yours is just what I like ~ bead board wainscotting, little hexagon tiles on the floor ~ perfect. What a great job your husband did! I am sure you all are going to really enjoy it.
Your bathroom transformation is remarkable...it's stunning! You are so very fortunate that your husband is handy and able to fix things around the house. We have to hire out for everything!
Ohhh Kathi... It's simply Beautiful... Excellent job by ALL! It must be like a dream to walk in there now... I know what you meant about the stains, etc. with the blue fixtures... our bathroom has the same blue and the same problems... ~sigh~ ... When my bathroom grows up, it wants to be just like yours!! God Bless...
~hugs 'n prayers~

WOW, that's the first word that came to mind when I saw the "after" picture! Your "new" bathroom is absolutely beautiful and I hope you enjoy it very much :)
Love,

Wow! Kathi! It's so beautiful! I love it! I tell my husband that when we remodel ours we'll use beadboard instead of tile, I really like the look. I love everything about it but most,the tile floors and I love the desk you put in for the girls. I had to stop in and I can't resist a remodel. Deb
What a beautiful renovation! I love how you did the table for the girls to do their makeup! Such a classy room. Beautiful job, I totally love it! Cindy
Beautiful. I love the new vintage look. Just stunning. You are indeed blessed.
It is beautiful Kathi:) Thanks for all the encouraging and caring words you have been leaving on my post.
This is probably the most impressive make-over I have seen! Really, really nice - such hard work (we are always re-modeling SOMETHING!) and to see these results - well they should be in a magazine. Really.
Kathi, Your new bathroom is fabulous!! I bet you're so excited. Stacey is a very hardworking handsome..man. The two of you make the perfect couple.
Hugs, Terrie
Wow, what a beautiful transformation. You guys did a great job:)
Kathi, its sooooo pretty! He did such a nice job!
That is beautiful! What a transformation. However, I am sure some people would love to have those retro blue items. Those are pretty cool too!
No way girlfriend! What a fantasic job ALL of you did! It is like a model home bathroom! 2 thumbs up...A++++. How wonderful to walk in that bathroom! It is BEAUTIFUL Kathi! Soooo happy for you! Now off to show my hubby...hey, honey, I have something for you to do!!!!
Love ya,
Maryjane
Wow! What a transformation! It is so elegant.
p.s. I would leave that blue toliet on my lawn as a lawn ornament. (LOL)
Blessings
Linda
Wow that bathroom should be in magazines. I love all the details that you thought of. It is so pretty. I would have to leave the door opened and keep walking by it to look at it every few minutes. Pam
I like blue, but...
Oh my! You made such an improvement in that bathroom.
What a gorgeous job you have done. It turned out beautifully.
Your new bath is so beautiful,you all did a wonderful job.
I want to live in that bathroom. Ok, maybe not live in it. But look at it! :) It's beautiful, what a fabulous job!
oooolalala! You have great taste, and great help!
Such a gorgeous job - and to know that you all did it together must make it double rewarding to enjoy! Congratulations on a fantastic job (and a lovely post!)
"That is FABULOUS, FANTASTIC, AND JUST TOTALLY AWESOME!!!
Seriously, it looks amazing. I love all your choices and I can see why you are so happy with the outcome. Yay Stacy! He did great!
What a STUNNING transformation, and so incredible that you and your husband did it all! I absolutely love the new look...its picture perfect! :-)
What a big project. Your bathroom is lovely! Love the vanity area. Jean
Wow Kathi, he and you all did a wonderful job!! Really like it! Far cry from that blue space huh?!
You are inspiring me, because I hope we can finish our main bath this year.

Kathi,
It's fantastically beautiful. And I love the piece of non-bathroom furniture in there. Wow! Snaps to the hubbie.
Your bathroom turned out really beautiful!! You should be very proud!
That is a beautiful bathroom and very hard to believe that it is even the same room! Congratulations!
What an absolutely beautiful bathroom. All that hard work was totally worth it.
thanks for the before and after pictures!
Your new bathroom is beautiful!

I love how you changed it back to being more in the style of your farmhouse. It is such a talent your husband has to be able to do that kind of work himself.
I used to do Show and Tell but then started with Menu Plan Monday and haven't had time to do S&T also. Might have to get back to it. I just felt bad when I didn't have time to look at everyone else's posts.
Oh, about my blog, I am flattered that you thought I actually knew how to superimpose pictures and stuff:) Darcy over at Graphically Designing did it for me. She does great work! Her button is on my blog if you don't know her blog address already. Blessings!
I am absolutely and totally impressed with the makeover. It's perfect. I know you will enjoy it for a long time.
Charlotte
I know I've already commented, but I just showed my hubby, who does all our remodeling, and he was like "WOW! They did a fantastic job - it's really nice"
Just wanted you to have a "Man's" opinion.. :-)
Colleen
This is a beautiful project, Kathi, everything looks absolutely wonderful and it's all so bright! I especially like the new floor with the retro tiles. DH and I have a favorite restaurant in Portland -- Jakes -- that occupies the ground floor of an historic hotel, and they have those itty bitty tiles with a mosaic border, all original and around 100 years old.
Have a great weekend, and thanks for stopping by.
Victoria :o)
You did a wonderful job. What a difference.
Wow, that is an absolutely gorgeous bathroom.
Kathi, you new bathroom is beautiful. How nice for it to be a "family" project, it means that much more. I espeically love the sink and mirror!
What a great new bathroom. It's gorgeous!
Your remodeled bathroom is just lovely. I like the idea of the antique table. We have a bathroom about the age of the one you remodeled, only substitute the blue color with a dusty pink. It's looking so old that I think in another year or so it will be back in style! LOL
Kathi~
Your new bathroom is gorgeous!
I really like the color of your old blue bathtub, sink and toilet- I think they are pretty :)
enjoy your beautiful- looks- like -a -magazine- bathroom!
God bless
Wow what a transformation! Those spray painted drawers kill me! lol! You have done a great job...and looking at those pictures it looks like your family was a great team!
I am glancing at your cat posing with Breaking Free...too funny! Maybe you should send this to Beth Moore and she could use it as an advertisement! lol!
And I love the Cosby show...nothing like good ol clean family fun...whatever happened to those days?
thanks for stopping by! :) Ashley
What an awesome transformation! Y'all did a GREAT job! We're about to start some major re'vamping around our home.. hope ours turns out as well as yours did.
Thanks for stopping by my place and for the wonderfully sweet comment.
