So that corner of the room is done.
As you can see in the reflection of the mirror - the opposite wall is still a frightening nightmare.
I really like it. He did a great job and his price was fair.....Okay, sexual favors but that was a small price to pay to get a new vanity top fabricated for practically nothing. :-)
A customer had this done in their kitchen and I loved it. Thankfully there was enough left over my for my bathroom. Love when that happens.
This corner is all new and was finished a few weeks ago.
We then had to pick out the tile for the shower. Very simple or one would think.
Man, tile is expensive. What I wanted and what I got are very different.
70sq foot of tile is amazingly expensive. I am only using tile in the shower.
The first choice was over $2,800 for just the shower! (with rick's discount)
Nope.
Then Rick suggested beveled subway tile.
Nope.
Then we went to Lowes and left the fancy tile shops.
I found something I really really like. It's more modern than what I normally go for, but I like it.
It's like subway tile only wavy. I know you're asking what the hell is wavy tile.
Well, you'll have to wait and see.
But it was only $420. Remember I have to have someone install this, not Rick this time, so that is an additional cost to that original 2,800. Which is why I couldn't do that.
This may even get finished this year. Hey a girl can dream.

I put wavy tile above our tube years ago. Glad to hear it's still around. It does break up a big flat surface.
I recently flooded my laundry room, which ran all the way downstairs to the rooms below. This means MORE construction after a year of it when we remodeled. I'm too old for this and I can't even make a decision regarding tile or color or anything else anymore! I wish you luck - wavy tile is something I never heard of and although I'm hoping to catch a glimpse of it on your project - I'm glad it's not my decision to make! Good luck.
Mike - see how up to date you are?
Tia - Im sorry about your flood. I've had a flood on my first floor. Arrived home from the lake house and walked in and my foot went squish squish. Gee thats not supposed to happen. But I did get a first floor of new hardwoods from the insurance company. So something positive came out of it. :-) hope you find the rainbow.
Pretty! We already need to re-do a lot in our bathroom that we just remodeled ohhh 12 years ago. Why does 12 years go by so fast..
Julie- 12 years goes fast only when you don't want it to.:-)
sexual favors :D
