Guest Bath Reno Day 5: By George, We Have a Bathroom!

Today was the last day of work for my dad and his employee which means the majority of the work is done!!  So again to recap, check {here} for day 1, check {here} for day 2, check {here} for day 3, and check {here} for day 4.

Here's what they did today!
We have a toilet!  The actual lid for the toilet is one with a magnetic child's seat "inside" the lid.  
 Since we removed the mirrored medicine cabinet, I asked my dad to create a little inset shelf instead.  Still need to paint the plywood backing. :)  He also got the light fixture in that I love!  Find that {here}!
 And we have a door!  We chose a 6 panel door that matches the door to our master and the one I want to change all the other upstairs doors too.
 Shower head, tub faucet, and handle put on...all the hardware in here is in polished chrome :)  This was actually a tub and shower trim kit by Moen that we got at Lowe's.  We chose Moen because the interior plumbing for the shower/tub was already Moen and it just made everything a little easier.
 Grout done on the floor.
 In love with the beautiful vanity and all the shiny chrome hardware!  Here are the vanity and faucet (both from Home Depot)!  I will tell you that the vanity is hard to find now so if you want it go get it now!  We had to go to 2 stores and only one had one left and they aren't available online anymore :(
 Awww...clean :)
 My favorite feature of this vanity is the 3 drawers...perfect for a guest bath!
 My dad did have to make a minor adjustment to this cabinet for our bathroom.  The white pads on that shelf were for tracks for another rolling drawer INSIDE the cabinet but because of our plumbing we had to remove that shelf and cut a small section out of the interior shelf.  It's totally not noticeable from the outside though and is still usable for extra bath products, toilet paper, etc.
 Fixed some spots on the the bathroom ceiling.  Still need to paint the ceiling.
 Finished the top of the shower tile...still needs to be cleaned up and painted.
And matched the texture of the dining room ceiling!  
They seriously knocked this one out of the park!  I am so happy with how everything looks and can't wait to get in there tomorrow to finish painting and cleaning up a few spots.  If you need any work in East Texas, let me know and I'll send you my dad's info!  You won't regret it!

I hope you enjoyed day 5 of the guest bathroom reno and join in tomorrow evening for the next update!  And as always, thanks for stopping by!
