My Project List

No, I am not kidding. After wrapping up our master ensuite reno, I've got the itch again and started to plan for yet another bathroom reno. It is for a long and narrow 8x12' shared bathroom on our second floor.

Here are the to-dos I am thinking:
  • Replace all the floor tiles with 12x24 porcelain tiles. With the traffic this room might get, natural marble like Carrara probably wouldn't be an ideal material. 
  • Replace all the tub shower enclosure walls and ceiling with mosaic tiles, and I have the bold wide stripe patterns in mind as pictured.
  • Paint the existing vanity cabinets in grey shades such as Sarah Richardson's Herringbone.
  • Replace the vanity countertop with Corian's Rain Cloud or similar quartz material. Again, in anticipation of the high traffic, I opt for materials that require least ongoing upkeep.
  • Replace all the bathroom hardware and faucets.

I expect this bathroom project to be a short and sweet one, so perhaps I can squeeze it in November before we take off for our Christmas vacation.

In addition, I also plan to complete the following projects within the next few months:
  • Add some DIY artworks to the foyer walls along the staircase: I just ordered the canvases so I can't wait to put my creative mind back to work.
  • Decorate the second guest bedroom on the second floor.
  • Accessorize the dining room.
  • Accessorize the wall built-in unit in the basement.

What's on your radar this summer?
