i hadn't intended to finish the bathroom first, but it's a small room with easy components, so i was able to breeze through. i used a cardboard template of the room to cut the tile flooring and then i glued the floooring in. initially, i hadn't planned on using baseboards on he top floor because i thought the angles would be too difficult to cut. after suffering through learning how to properly cut the moulding, this was easy! i cut it, primed it, painted it, and glued it in. voila! the bathroom is ready for furnishings. i am a little bummed that the wallpaper is puckering, but in a real house wallpaper would pucker if it was placed above a steamy bathtub, so... speaking of bathtubs, i ordered a couple of things from Elf Miniatures. they have the best and most modern bathroom fixtures that i've seen! now it's going to get interesting, as there are a couple of pieces that i want to make for this room. i bought a tiny ceiling globe that i'd like to make some sort of frame around and place above the bathroom sink. i also bought a pretty boring white, wooden cabinet that the that sink will sit on. i want to try sanding it, repainting, and making it a bit shabby. we'll see how that goes. my wooden flooring arrived today. i bought it for super cheap from an ebay seller in china and it looks fantastic! now if i can only decide what color stain to buy. that could take a while.
looking great!! I'm currently renovating my bathroom and once i've found some groovy bathroom lights i can concentrate on painting!!
only a matter of what colour to paint it, green or blue? hmm hard to decide :(

Looking good, it is pretty impressive now even without the fixtures and fittings. I have recently decorated my bathroom, and have installed mood lighting against a black flooring it looks absolutely fantastic.
