    One more coat for the walls and the paint will be done. The closet stays white.

    The floor plastic kinda hides the real colors it looks much better once the floor is uncovered.

    Now you just need shelves in the closet, a vanity and some trim/finish work and it will be all done. I love the recessed lights.

    Thanks!!

    I’ve got to grout the floor still too. I know odd order... :whistle: I didn’t want to grout until after painting just in case of getting the paint on grout. It’s easy to clean tile up but not the grout.

    If only there was a way to protect the floor from paint falling on it. Like maybe something you could put over it or something? :thumbs:

    Yeah, I'm a wiseass to the end. Looks fantastic Pete!

    My luck is so bad that I have managed to get paint under two sheets of plastic onto hardwood floor - and not just a little bit (and not just once). No, there wasn't a spill, just the way things work for me. So, I fully understand his reluctance regardless of protection.

    Great choice in grout color - it really offsets the pattern.
