Curtain doors

I have found my calling! Grout. Doing grout is wonderful. Plus I'm really good at it. You would be too! I didn't even mind having to wash the floor four times within an hour. First you wash the floor. Then you slap on some goo, otherwise known as grout. You use this cool spreader thing (it's technical term might actually be "grout spreader" but I can't be sure). It looks tough, but it's really foam on the bottom. And then you spread, and it fills your spaces, and it looks really nice. It spreads really nice too. Like soft butter on toast. 

Then we wait. 

Wash the floor three more times, and viola, your tile looks finished and pretty. The only part I didn't find thrilling was the cold water I had to wash the floor with. We don't have and sinks or basically any running water except the main, and it's c-c-c-cold. Regardless - worth it!

My really pretty, getting so close to being done, bathroom.

This is actually a picture I got online. The one with the handle is my favorite!!

So while I'm doing all the fun jobs like painting trim and wainscoting and grouting tile (in my defense I also started hauling stuff upstairs so we can finish the basement next weekend and not have to be worried about that anymore) my lovely husband is doing all the 'bleh' jobs. Like cutting tile around round bathtubs. Oh yes friends, it looks beautiful and I am so excited to use it, but this bathtub was not easy to tile around. Because even with a tile saw (thanks again Kendra!) rounded cuts and tile are not like the pink and blue smartie... so not getting married.

It looks so good though, because Josh is amazing, and I'm picky and made him redo anything I didn't like. I'm nice like that. Aside from professional grouter, I would make a first class supervisor. 

He also sanded the finished drywall in one of the bedrooms and cleaned it out. I suppose the next couple of nights will be about moving our junk upstairs. Whoo....

Thanks once again wonderful husband!

Oh, and we bought doors last night. They have to be shipped, so we won't have them for a bit. It's because I wanted the pretty ones. And I'm spoiled. But I've mentioned that. Silly me getting all into doors. I didn't even notice doors before this little project. Now I can tell you that in the show parenthood two of the families houses have the doors I got and oh yes, I will be looking at your doors next time I come over. Unless I come over when we're done this project, because then I won't be looking for inspiration and how you did what and, hey, maybe I should get light fixtures like that... (I've returned and bought three different fixtures for the kitchen already.)

Door I could have just picked up and gone home with. 

 Door I really, really wanted.

They were on sale. So I did it. I'm really excited. And when we finally get a toilet installed and I still don't have door I will happily say "Dear pretty bathroom, I shall hang a curtain in your doorway and I will be ok with everyone hearing what's about to be done."
