Upstairs Guest Bathroom Remodel

 

We just completed remodeling the upstairs guest bathroom.

Sometimes we still call it the upstairs kid's bathroom even though there are no longer kids at home because the countertop is significantly lower than a normal countertop - probably to make it easier for kids to use.

I forgot to take a 'before' photo, but here is a 'during' photo.  The blue wall color was done by the prior owner.  This is one of only two rooms we did not repaint when we moved in during 2007.  We ended up painting over the wood cabinets this year because...

The wood is severely damaged.  There was a similar amount of damage when we moved in during 2007 so we had the cabinets professional sanded, stained, and sealed.  They couldn't get rid of the damage either.  So we decided this year not to call in a professional refinisher as I wanted that damage removed or covered.  We decided to cover it with paint.

This is the only photo I took when we moved in during 2007.  Sorry it is so blurry.  All we did in 2007 was to replace the flooring and countertop.

A few Behr color samples we tried this year.  From the top: Halation, Natural Gray, Classic Silver, Sonic Silver.

Yet more samples.  From the top: Halation, Silver City, Chic Gray.
