And then came the baseboards. Oh the baseboards. Not glued, thank goodness, but all those darned nails! Another many hours and dents in the wall later, all the pieces were neatly numbered and stacked on the floor. I plan to replace them with TALLER baseboards in order to hide all the nasty screwdriver marks I left on the wall, haha.

So for the past week, I have been resetting screw pops (they didn't use nails in this particular bathroom...) and patching all the holes. I have become a perfectionist in this regard, applying drywall compound, sanding, reapplying drywall compound, re-sanding, etc. etc. to make sure every single little hole is perfectly level with the surrounding wall. I'm still not done - I sure ripped a lot of drywall off with the toilet paper holder!

I still have to decide on a color for the walls and the trim. The cappuccino-like color I settled on earlier seems too...safe. Perhaps a super dark brownish oyster color. My manager's wife recommended a trim color, but it looks really yellow in the sample. Decisions, decisions!
