So Close to Done

Still working on the details,
 but the vanity is pretty much done.


There are molding pieces that still need to go on.

 
Hung my little painting over the mirror.

 
It's coming together,
we're in the homestretch...

A Sink and a Mirror, Hooray

 
Finish molding being stained
 and polyurethaned for the vanity.

 
One of the doors...

 
Terry added a bottom to the inside of the vanity,
against my direct orders...
 
but he's right in the end. (insert smiley face here).

 
Put the sink back in, and hung the mirror...
 
It almost took longer to hang a mirror,
 than it did to put in the shower (ha ha).

 
Uh oh, a leak, damn it...

Details, Details

 
He gets home from work and grabs the vacuum...
I love him.

 
Plumbing going in for the sink.

 
Behind the scenes view of plumbing.

 
Terry's plotting out hot and cold lines.

 
These two are always under foot.

 
Tapping into water lines...

 
Pipes coming in.

 
Nervous dog.
She's sitting on a giant piece of tile.
 
She won't leave mama,
mama wishes she'd go to bed.
 
 
Terry's attaching the pipes under the sink.

 
Plunbing is done,
and there wasn't one curse word...
 
Now we have to figure out the frontage.
Sliding front doors...
 
Man, we are so close to finishing this project,
Only 79 more little things to do...

Sinks Need Water...

 
We made some progress on the bathroom this weekend.
 
The vanity is actually floating,
but we liked the look of these giant ball legs.

 
Cut the hardwood countertop,
now to cut the hole for the sink.
 
 
Perfect cut.

 
Sink placement.
Making sure everything is ready for plumbing.

 
Uh oh, there's the plumbing crap...
 
I sense a lot of swearing in the coming days.

 
I finished the grout on the shower curb.

 
I couldn't just but the faucet,
I had to get a mirror and a new rug too.

 
Stain and 5000 coats of polyurethane
 going on the countertop.

 
Lot's of plumbing work coming...

Bathroom Vanity

 
The vanity is going in !!!

 
While Terry works on that,
 I am working on some finish stuff...

 
There's the sink,
can't wait to select the faucet,
and the mirror.
 
We should get a lot done this weekend...

Barn Door

 
Well, Terry's special order hardware finally
 arrived for the bathroom door, and now it is up.

 
The door slides open and closed,
 rather than a standard hinged door swing.

 
There's the hardware that the door rolls on.
This is the barn door approach
 that I spoke about in earlier posts.
 
It is a great way to install a door in a small space,
without doing the whole "pocket door" thing.

 
Still waiting on that vanity.........
