Vanity plumbed and working. We've taken the huge, round and carved feet off a sleigh bed, to split down middle, and add height to the matching mirror, over vanity. will install black tiles/with stars backsplash. It's grand!
The sleigh bed headboard was installed yesterday, while I masked off the charcoal shower floor, before glass tile got white grout, which pulled everything together.
I'm about to hunt down bidet toilet seats and maybe pick one, as we installed an outlet by the toilet. Toilet goes in todayyyy! Maybe able to get working, but heavy glass door will be unboxed, and thought on only, today. Need a special drill but for glass.
Contractor will pick up shed metal roofing. Yay!
An out of the blue thing ... Contractor stopped, mid shower grouting, to thank me for "letting him take this job." That was weird, bc I needed him to take the job badly.... he's very busy!
The thing is, his wife has an ornate dresser, she wants him to retrofit, and install as a vanity, similar to my situation. He sees how that works, how good it can be, and how to overcome the glitches..... there's always glutches.
Before, his carpenter's brain saw red when suggestions to cut up, distress or otherwise dishonor good wood came up. It's like his brain jumped into artist mode, building and creating out of destruction, for the first time.
As of now, we're flying through the work....like a spell's been cast, and it's very good work.
Will begin gathering for next bathroom, and finishing shed. I have insulation. Maybe will use the rest of the green tile in the shed, but only in designs requiring no cutting. Alternatively, was thinking of meditation garden or pathways.
