DIY Home Improvement!

SO...Shaun and I have been trying for the last year to get the house fixed up exactly the way we want it. One of the biggest obstacles standing in our way was our master bathroom. Because our house was built in 1950 and was a boys ranch home for many years, it has seen its share of wear and tear. Our bath tub and shower area in the master bath are living proof of that!

While meandering around today at Lowe's, we discovered Rustoleum for bath tubs, tile, etc. After 7 cans of rustoleum spray paint our bath tub is looking like new!

Another perk is that we had to put our new cleaning supplies to use to scrub the tub before we used the spray paint and once again they have proven themselves!

Here are some before and after photos!

The bath tub before my natural, homemade cleaners got a hold of it!



After a little cleaning...note the rust spots at the back end of the tub.



The tub after painted with rustoleum. The rust spots are GONE and the tub looks new! (even though this picture didn't turn out too well...)


The whole picture "before."


The finished product (minus the cleaning up!)

The pictures really don't do it justice! It looks almost brand new! Hooray for $20 worth of spray paint/rustoleum instead of paying for an entire renovation! Once we decorating we will be able to check this off our household goals for 2012!
