GM Reno #3: Twin bath before and after

For those of you who don't know, the DQ is not someone who covets clothes, or shoes, or fancy cars, or anything like that.  Nope.  She loves her coffee, and well.... she loves her renos.

So, despite the fact that we've only lived in the Green Machine for 3.5 years, we've actually done three renovations.

To recap: Reno #1 was the 1966 kitchen, the miles of putting green carpet.
Reno #2 was the window/skylight upgrade, geothermal HVAC, solar hot water, and taming the jungle
Reno #3 (and hopefully the last) has been upgrading the bathrooms, a new roof, and a photovoltaic power system on top.

The twins' bathroom was particularly cramped, especially for it's high occupancy.  Since the plan is to transition to KP and Mila's room one day, it was in need of a tune up. It got the "mini-gut job." Oh, and everything needs to be green, or we wouldn't be the Green Machine!

Before: Lots and lots of turquoise and a 20gallon (it seems) flush toilet

Before:  Turquoise sink!  Non-functional cabinet!
 
Before: The swing of the door takes up most of the room not taken by the giant blue toilet

After: Toto dual flush wall mount toilet and new pocket door.
 

After: beautiful oyster shell concrete floors, warm for toes and bums
