A little DIY

A few weeks ago I decided to do some DIY work in the bathroom. I would normally ask Billy to do this but being the type of girl I am  - I didn't want to wait on someone else. I just did it myself. So this is what I did. In the kids bathroom they had two towel racks both of which were very high for kids. My kids could not reach them. And one we never even used. So I decided to take both of them down and put up a smaller one. Let me say I have never done anything like this before so I didn't tell Billy until I was already halfway through. :) I didn't think I was going to be able to get the screws out of the wall but after lots and lots pulling and googling how to do it, I finally got them out! Then I had to fill the holes, let them dry and then paint. My job is not perfect. I did learn a few things along the way incase I ever do something like this again. So the little imperfections are kind of like a battle scar. It's not all that pretty (but not that bad either) but I got the job done and I did it myself!

Before. There was a bar over the toilet just like this one but I didn't take a picture of it.

After. I did need help with hanging the new towel holder. My sweet husband did it.

Good job! And great idea. We, too, have a towel rack above the toilet in the kids bathroom that they never use.
