Okay, I've been out a couple times this week to get stuff for Saturday, so I don't have to spend precious time on Saturday running around trying to get the stuff! I've set aside the day to try and get the 2nd bathroom updated. I want to:

- Take down the wallpaper
- Prime and paint the walls
- Replace the light fixture in the shower
- Get the drawers "fixed" so they don't wobble (they wobble because of the design they are on)

- Oh, and get new door/drawer knobs/handles to match whatever color I end up painting. Some of the drawers don't even have knobs! They open by pulling from underneath. I'd really like to etch the same pattern on them as the other drawers too, but I know I don't have that kind of skill or tools.

I would also like to replace the cabinet behind the toilet, but given that what I want to replace it with I can't seem to find cheaper than about $100, that may not happen. :p I don't want to try and paint it to match the under sink cabinet, because I have no desire to paint wood. But we shall see what I can come up with....

Anyway, I've tried twice already to find a fix for the drawers. I'm on attempt #3, but think it has a great shot! I bought center/under drawer slides, thankfully in the correct length it seems given I had one of the under mounts from the drawers with me! Woo for forethought and remembering to bring it!

I haven't bought paint or primer yet, I'll do that on Saturday because I don't want the paint to sit around and separate (does paint still do that?). But I've got the wallpaper perforater, the wallpaper remover goo in a spray bottle, and a wallpaper scraper. I also bought a recessed shower light remodel kit, hopefully in the right size! And hopefully I can get the old light off and out without issues. I also have painting supplies from before, except for roller covers, and a putty knife it seems.

OH! I also need to repair the hole in my living room wall behind the display case. Heh, I had forgotten that was there. But I have a wall repair patch and bought putty. Should be good. Just need to get matching paint.

Wish me luck!

Anyone want to come over and help?
