Great job! What program did you use for the graphic of your bathroom, it looks great

@w23342 Thanks, Wayne. I actually use...wait for it...Windows Movie Maker. It's free, sometimes a bit buggy, but it works well for me. The graphic is a stock effect on version 6.0 called "Edge Detection."

Hey that was great! Congratulations! My bathroom is about your size and I want to do the samething I have a new bathtube and shower and toilet already. So what I need now is a mirror, vanity, faucet, towel/toilet paper racks. I wonder what you think that would cost?

[TheFirstFlip]

@shwtym1 Depends on the size of the vanity. But assuming a standard 30" single-bowl vanity, everything you listed is easily done for under $500. If you do all the work yourself, even less.

I would put a curtain over that window....

@ChyakuNorisuScarf We generally do not provide window treatments with our properties, but I certainly agree that a curtain would help!

Thanks a million for the info, it looks awesome, I am having mine done for $3,500. Same size and year 1970's. Best wishes, cheers!

Oh wow, I might actually use this guide to renovate an old bathroom.

Nice job. I agree a framed mirror would have been nice but all in all, I do believe the buyers will appreciate having the cabinet. I miss that in my newer home.
