Thanks, another option I came upon at Lowe's (they were selling their $2.68 small houseplants for $.10! - I got 12), was drop clothes. A 2ml thick drop cloth measuring 9'X 12' (108 X 144 inches) was $2.98. The only problem was that although if I held my hand close to it, I could see my hand, the plastic was just a little opaque. Since this is my first time wintersowing I thought I better stick with the completely, absolutely, unquestionably, most decidedly so, clear-clear plastic. They had the same size at different ml thickness. For $1.00 at Dollar Tree, the clear plastic shower curtains were a good deal - they are 70X72 inches. I did look at JoAnne Fabrics but the least expensive clear plastic was $2.99 a yard (would be 36 X 52 inches). There is probably less expensive plastic you could buy at a another fabric store, but for now Ill use the shower curtains and sweater bags. If I hear that very light opaque (almost but not quite clear) is OK to use, I might try the drop cloths suggested by one of the Lowe's employees. I picked up for $2.99 each at the thrift store a rubbermaid container (43 X 19 X 6.7 but no top) and a plastic toboggan for small children (48 X 14 X 4). The rubbermaid container is perfect (it even has wheels) but I think the toboggan may not be deep enough to sow seeds in directly. The toboggan will be useful for keeping together a bunch of styrofoam cups and be able to move them around if I have to. Now off to drill and fill them and the baby bath in preparation for the 21st! Thanks again for all you help and suggestions.

Yeah, it's a toughie because baths alone cause dry skin from soaking in the water. I use Aveeno lotion after showering (I rarely take baths), or vitamin E oil if I'm really dry. I've also heard what works well is to use the baby oil after you get out of the bath but while you are still wet, let it soak in for a few minutes, then towel off. You will probably oil up your towels but you could have specific towels you use for when you use the oil. Less dangerous too than slipping around in the tub. This is completely unrelated but your post reminds me of a few summers ago when we had a heat wave and I had a bunch of friends over for a BBQ. We wanted to make a make shift slip-and-slide so I found a giant piece of plastic in the garage that we laid out on the lawn and hosed it down. Well, we weren't on a hill and it just wasn't slippery at all so we squirted baby oil all over ourselves and the plastic sheet and then went for it. Still wasn't slippery enough but we still had a good time. Still makes me laugh to picture a bunch of adults in swimsuits covered in baby oil and trying to fling themselves down a giant piece of plastic in my back yard. :)

Your layout looks very much like this one, but with a closet in the upper left corner. and one closet in the lower right. You can take out the closet in the upper left and extend the master bath into that area, switch the closet in the middle bedroom to open in the master bedroom, and divide the closet in the front bedroom, so that it opens into the middle bedroom, as shown on this plan.

Given your list, the $35k is closest, but I’d add another $15k, sorry to say. Of course it will be less in LCOL areas. In my experience, if you subtract the cost of appliances from a kitchen remodel, a bathroom remodel is even more expensive than a kitchen remodel despite the significant size difference. This is why I only renovated one bathroom in my current home, and left the other 2 in their 1993 state other than upgrading sink faucets, toilets, lighting, medicine cabinets and towel bars. The hardest is the tub and shower renovations because they can be so tricky to waterproof properly, set properly, plumb properly and tile properly. Just peruse this forum and you’ll see.
