Bathroom Wainscoat, Part 3 - Wainscoat Trimmed Out
Category: Do it Yourself
More progress on the master bathroom, we've now got much of the wainscoat trimmed out with a first finish coat of paint.
The trim was Jeanne's design, and ended up being easy to complete given it was all based on stock paint-grade pine at our local lumber yard.
We're getting there! Next up...we'll be installing the bathroom door. Paul has also informed us that the new shower glass has been cut and he's picking it up this weekend. He could start the final installation this week. Cool!

We hope you're inviting us to the shower to celebrate! Heehee.

I love it! Is that a built in cabinet that I see in the background of one of the pictures. It must be great putting on the final touches- you're almost done. :)

Yes! That is a built-in that we carefully put back into place. You can see the original bathroom with the built in here. Looked very different!

Bravo! Wow it looking georgous! So fresh and clean. I love that you kept the built in cupboard and made it into something worthy. It turned out very pretty. I'm sure it would thank you if it could for saving it from its 'horrordom-ness' and releasing its inner beauty :) (a French antique dealer once told me that he felt a piece of furniture has life because people stock it full of memories...well, he was trying to sell me a very expensive table too, but I thought it was a pretty cool concept)

Wow, that's looking gorgeous. I have a severe case of bathroom envy.

A bathroom door. We're so jealous!
Is that the original tile, or guys deserve kudos for finding cool period tile and laying it?

The floor tiles are unglazed ceramic mosaics (these tiles come in both 1" hex and square) from American Olean.
The shower tiles are Greenwich Village subway tiles from American Olean. The edges are slightly more rounded than the real vintage thing, but the look is very nice.

Well, Here it is June already and I'm sure you're enjoying your lovely bathroom and may not see this. But I'll try anyway. I'm redoing my kitchen in my 1836 farmhouse and would like to use beadboad as a backsplash and on the wall behind stove. Do you know of any beadboard product that would work in this application--water"proof" and fire resistant? Apparently the product you used in your bathroom might work but I wonder about the heat. Thanks
