I would’ve loved to come in today with a big update on my ORC room, but that’s not the case.

I signed up to the challenge last minute and posted my bathroom plans on Monday. See them here.

I want to get on the schedule of doing updates every Thursday, so today will be my week 2 update.

Week 2 Master Bathroom Update

Not much has changed since the last update. The Covid-19 shelter in place orders have made this challenge even a bit more challenging for almost everyone. Myself included.

Since I have three kids at home (and a fourth three days per week) I have been tiling my bathroom in 1-2 hour time chunks.

A little here. A little there. Until she’s all done. 😉

Luckily, I am almost all done with the tiling!!! This is the first tiling job I’ve ever done all by myself and so far, so good.

All I have left to do is cut about 10-15 small edge pieces, lay them, let them set and then I can grout.

Tiling should be marked off my to-do list by Saturday.

My Current Bathroom Remodel Schedule

I have planned my remodel schedule based on when the items I’ve ordered will be coming in.

Here’s what I hope to accomplish for each update.

• Week 3 – Tiling and Painting Done
• Week 4 – DIY Concrete over Laminate Counters
• Week 5 – Vanity Update (Will be Painting)
• Week 6 – Installing molding on the trim, faucet, odds and ends
• Week 7 – Hopefully it will be done, if not this will be the week for any finishing touches

Here’s what I’ve ordered so far:

• Shower Curtain, Rod and Hooks
• Paint (I ended up going with a different trim color. I’m using Valspar’s Everglade Deck which is a dark blue-green.)
• Quarter Round Trim
• Concrete for Counter Tops

I’m holding off on a faucet and sink because first I’m going to try and coat my current sink with Ardex feather concrete. Whether or not that turns out will determine what else I need to purchase.
