Now that I’ve the majority of the wall design completed within the studio rest room, I feel the remainder of this venture will go fairly shortly and easily. Since I don’t have time to do any precise work on Wednesdays, I did take a while final night time to evaluate the place I’m on this venture, and to make a listing of what nonetheless must be carried out to complete up. I feel the majority of these items on my to do listing can get carried out by the top of the weekend.
One of the crucial apparent issues I nonetheless want to complete is the wainscoting. Fortunately, most of it’s already painted, so it simply must be dusted off and cleaned. However I nonetheless must caulk, prime, and paint the brand new trim that I added across the room. I additionally want to determine learn how to end the outlet. I’ve a plan, so hopefully, it’ll work out.
After which the entire fourth wall nonetheless must be completed. I used to be in a position to do the stripes on the higher and center rows on this portion of the wall, though I nonetheless have a number of to complete up.


However I bumped into some issues on the underside row. For some motive, the primer on this space fashioned some bubble-like areas that weren’t easy (which might have proven when painted) and flaked off actually simply. I do not know what would have triggered this. I’ve by no means had primer do that earlier than. So I peeled off the free components, and now I’ve to restore these earlier than I can end these stripes. It’s a little bit of a ache, nevertheless it needs to be a simple repair. After which my mild switches want a change plate. I’m nonetheless undecided on the change plate. Ought to I simply use white, or ought to I exploit a paintable change plate and match it to the wall design? I’ll most likely do the latter.


However this space of the wall goes to be my greatest problem. There’s simply no method to get this wallpaper off of the partitions with out it peeling off not solely the primer beneath, but in addition peeling off among the drywall mud that I had utilized to easy out the imperfections on this wall. *Sigh* It’s so irritating that I’m going to have to start out throughout with drywall mud as soon as I get this wallpaper off. And since I had wrapped the wallpaper across the nook a few inches, that entire nook is a multitude and desires some consideration earlier than I can end out the stripes to the nook.


I additionally want to determine the sunshine state of affairs. Since that is such a tiny rest room, you possibly can see how shut the 2 lights are to one another.


Once more, that is the ceiling mild that I purchased to switch that very plain spherical mild. This mild is 12 inches excessive.


After which I had supposed to easily use gold spray paint on the wall mild that I have already got and reinstall it.


However with the 2 lights being so shut collectively, I don’t know what I need such a giant, eye-catching mild above the mirror to compete with my cute flower mild on the ceiling. So now, I’m contemplating shopping for a extra streamlined for the wall mild. I’m envisioning one thing like this (affiiate hyperlink)…


I don’t know in the event you can envision these, however I feel the less complicated design of that wall mild will go significantly better with the ceiling mild that I’ve chosen.


I’m additionally nonetheless undecided on portray the ceiling. At this very second, I’m leaning in the direction of leaving it white as a result of I simply love how the stripes look with the white above and the white (wainscoting) beneath. I like the thought of retaining the entire colour contained inside that space, virtually like a body on a portray. However I additionally may make a last-minute choice to color it pink. 😀
However that call can even rely on how the self-importance seems as soon as I get it painted. I’m nonetheless within the “inexperienced” camp on the self-importance, nevertheless it positively received’t be the inexperienced that I examined on it. That inexperienced is means too muted to floor that colourful wall design.


Along with all of these issues, I must:
Grasp the mirror,
Add the apron trim to the window and get that caulked and painted,
Clear the ground and presumably contact up the paint,
Set up the brand new faucet, and
Substitute the knobs and pulls on the self-importance,
Purchase and set up a brand new rest room paper holder and hand towel ring, and
Make or purchase a chunk of art work for the wall above the bathroom.
I’m at all times amazed on the quantity of labor that goes into tiny rooms. It doesn’t actually matter how small the room is, it nonetheless wants the entire similar variety of primary steps {that a} larger room wants. Fortunately, because the room is tiny, the time to complete every step is lower than it will absorb a a lot bigger rest room. So I feel I can get a complete lot of these items checked off of the listing over the subsequent 4 days, after which hopefully, I can get this rest room completed up subsequent week. We’ll see the way it goes!
