Actually, this took me about 3 weeks to finish. After gutting the entire room, I had the plumber come do a rough-in for a tub/shower. Then I put up the bead board wainscoting, painted the walls, put down new flooring, put up cement backerboard on the tub surround, tiled it and trimmed it with a really cool platinum metallic tile (even tiled the window frame) and put in a new vanity with a super cool Moen Eva faucet. I put in new towel bars, etc. I managed to save the original built-in mirrored medicine cabinet and linen closet (this is a 1926 brick home), which I was very happy about. The walls are painted a really soft "hickory smoke" color. I found little glass knobs for the new vanity which perfectly match the glass knob on the original mirrored medicine cabinet.
