Bathroom Floors and Painted Walls! ORC Week 3

May 24, 2020 by Katie Barton 1 Comment

It’s officially the end of week three and even though I’m a bit late getting this blog post up, I did meet my bathroom goals for the week.

If you’re just tuning in you can read my previous One Room Challenge posts here:

  • Master Bathroom Plans
  • Installing Herringbone Tile

The Tile is In and Grouted

I’m happy to report that the tile is in and grouted. This is the first tile job I’ve ever laid 100% myself.

(Disclosure: My husband helped me with some of the cuts I kept screwing up. It turns out that I need to some major practice taking angled measurements.)

I laid out the design, installed the tile, did most of the cuts and all of the grouting. And it looks good.

In fact, I’m really surprised at how good the tile turned out.

The Trim Dilemma

What you may have noticed is that I didn’t remove the trim before I tiled. And yes, I KNOW that you’re supossed to. The problem was, the trim was ripping the drywall when it was taken off.

Clutter, Be Gone!

Banish clutter before the holiday season with this three day email course and free checklist.

    To solve this problem, I ‘m adding quarter round trim around the edges. This will cover up any uneven tile lines that you’re currently seeing.

    She (The Bathroom) Painted

    My amazing help who simultaneously trashes the bedroom and helps me paint 😉

    She finally painted. 🙂

    This is my first ever white room and I’m still kind of adjusting. I like it , I think it looks good it’s just a bit more cold than what I’m used to.

    I almost painted it greige but instead decided to go through with my initial plan. I can always paint over the white if I decide I don’t like it enough.

    The trim is painted in Everglade Deck by Valspar. It’s a dark cyan color.

    Coming Up: Concrete Coutnertops

    For week four I’ll be tackling the concrete counter tops and sink. I’ve already started and like anything else, it’s going to take longer than I had thought. So, that’s my only goal for week four.

    You can check out the progress from all of the other ORC guest participants here.

      […] I laid a sheet down to protect the floor and then gave the top of the table one coat of primer. (I used drywall primer because it’s what I had on hand from my bathroom project.) […]
