Bathroom.

So we have our things moved into the new apartment. I would say we are moved in but I have unpacked two boxes and only cleaned the kitchen cupboards, so we are SO not moved in.

We have big dreams for this place. Because we are renting from someone we know, and because we are paying so little, and because I am home alone and was expecting to be bored, we decided we would paint. And by paint, I mean the entire place pretty much. We are also talking to who we are renting from about doing the floors, but that's a whole other case of worms.

The first room we are starting with is probably the one we cannot stand the most and where a good coat of paint is most needed. This is the black bathroom, yes black with glow in the dark stars. Now it may not be so bad if my name was the name written in glow in the dark stars on the wall, or if you could see what you were doing the shower (how did these people ever shave?), but its much too dark for our liking so we are painting.

The goal is to paint the trim white, three, or maybe in the end all four a light grey, if three then the fourth a slightly darker grey. These then would be the same paints used in the bedroom.

Prior to starting however my goal this week is to remove the stars, remove all screws, putty and then get started on the trim. Have I mentioned that I have never done this before. So I have googled and googled and got a pamphlet from Home Hardware, so really my hopes are, how hard can this be? My opinion will most likely change when I update with (fingers crossed) a final product next week, including before and after pictures! We are hoping the transformation is drastic.
