Now that the tile is in, we’re moving on to priming and painting the walls and ceiling. We mudded some low spots in the walls and ceiling yesterday, and sanded everything once the mud was dry. We vacuumed the tile and wiped down the ceiling and all the walls to try to get rid of as much drywall dust as possible before we put on the primer. Today, we washed down all the tile and covered it in plastic after it had dried. We’re putting on one coat of primer and two coats of paint.

We’re very pleased with the outcome of the tile, and we’re looking forward to completing this project. There is still a ton of things left to do, but we’re thrilled to have the tile finally set in the bathroom.
