Bathroom before.

The bathroom renovation has begun.  And just because it's really nice to compare, this is what things looked like beforehand.  How someone could willingly have chosen these tiles for a bathroom floors and walls is totally beyond me (and probably what someone else will be saying in 30 years about our taste - "Can you belive it WHITE tiles on the wall and GREY tiles on the floor!!!  WHAT were they thinking?!?).

This is the current laundry, cleaning supply storage area, and overflow moisturiser area.  Handy hubby built the shelves a while ago, but now a proper cupboard for all this stuff is going to be built (with doors for the cleaning supplies).

The basin is going to be bigger, and not a corner one.(p.s. that's my new $18 maxi dress - it's awesome)

The toilet is moving over to the other side of the shower (next to the basin) and the shower is going, and a bath (with a shower in it) is going along the back wall.  Everything is white except the floor tiles (grey) and the side of the bath will be mosaic tiles (grey, blue, pink - but quite muted - not too bright).  It's going to take three weeks - we are going to live in the house for three days while they do it.  I already know I won't cope with just that.  But luckily we are going away for a long weekend this weekend and then moving in with the Wheaters on their first wedding anniversary.  Because that's what everyone wants on an anniversary - friends moving in.
