The old bathroom is new again. Or is it old?

The last major project is starting to reach the finish line! Another coat of paint on some trim and two coats on the door will make this room 100%! Just in time to enjoy the great weather outdoors. What a mess this room was. It never fails to amaze me as to what some people will do.

Yes, the bathroom is old again. Very nice.

I see that they blocked off the bathroom window and that you uncovered it. How nuts was it to block off a bathroom window?

In our Fort Lauderdale 50's ranch, there was a window above the tub that was blocked off because of an addition, and the window was sealed with painted plywood, the tiled sill was now a shelf. During the remodel I was surprised to see the jalousie window was still in place, but it is now blocked by a kitchen cabinet.

So during the bath remodel I tiled up to the ceiling, but left that alcove (and window) and tiled it in, creating a nice place to put bath items, (3 daughters, 3 different shampoo bottles), even had a nice marble sill.

The "amateur" flippers that bought that house, re did that bath, and blocked off that alcove. No shelf, no place to put anything. I was like...why???

Nice! Great inspiration to keep wall mounted sinks in the Bungalow. Is that a new sink or a salvage one?

So sorry about the delay in reply. Life and work have been over the top but in a good way! The sink was actually reclaimed from the bathroom that I gutted which they installed in the late 1950's. It is a bit too new for this bathroom but I think it looks good, seeing how it cost me nothing at all.

Pappster, your bathroom looks great. And it's nice you kept the artwork. A nice bit of homage to past residents.
