Bathroom


I have decided this is my first project. Why: cause it seems small and hopefully easy project.

So I have drawn a very rudimentary sketch of the bathroom. Obviously not to scale. Very small bathroom.

Over the years these are items I have found in the bathroom that really don’t belong.
- notebooks in a package.
- various tools
- Work gloves
- Beer bottles
- Phone chargers.
- And various other non-appropriate items

So as you can see by my very talented work of art my bathroom is as wide as the tub/shower. We have storage above the toilette and we have a medicine cabinet and sink cabinet.

I am sure I can purge a lot of items that are in here. Various bubble bath gift sets etc..

So what needs to be fixed: The bottom portion of the walls are tilted the above is wallpapered in horrible looking wall paper (previous owners doing..but it cant’ come down unless we gut the bathroom..only bathroom in the house so) I would like to put tile board on the ceiling and the walls to make it easier to clean and just freshen it up. We have no exhaust fan in the bathroom (window in the shower) so the ceiling gets stained quite frequently and we have painted it I don’t know how many times.
The medicine cabinet needs to have something done with it..not sure what. Either rebuilt, painted at least.

So my plan of action.

1. completely empty above toilette cabinet.
2. clean cabinet (on top of it too)
3. go thru items and purge as necessary decide where they should be stored in 1
of the 3 options I have. To recap that: 1.above toilette cabinet,2. medicine
cabinet, 3. under sink cabinet.
4. move to under sink cabinet—empty completely and decide if I need to
add a shelf in there or baskets etc..
5. 2 and 3 again.
6. medicine cabinet same as above.
7. any left over items that need a home determine where they should be put.
8. Clean from top to bottom—ceiling to floor.
9. Tub/shower top to bottom
10. toilette—including base
11. sink
12. vacuum bathmat
13. wash bathroom floor (can do on hands and knees not that big)

So bathroom will be organized. I am thinking I can do this in two nights..organize and purge one night (which includes cleaning the cabinets) and the other night deep clean the bathroom.
