If you've tuned in from time to time here, you'll know that we've been slowly working on our master bathroom for a while. It all started simple enough...take out our aging shower stall & update it with something modern & new, maybe some tile? (That was the end of last summer) Well, as long as the shower is out, why not paint the rest of the bathroom...but, that's getting pretty dated itself, so let's update the fixtures. By the time we knew it, we were doing a makeover! So, here are a couple of pictures of the bare bathroom.

I had to move the shower head & valve to the opposite wall



Finally, we start seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. We decided on double vanities. It's hard to shave while Christina is doing her hair & make-up. No more waiting for me! Christina's dad helped out quite a bit getting stuff in & done right.

Here is the finished product!
We decided on brushed nickel fixtures. They were the most abundant & therefore easiest to mix & match.

The last thing to go in was this huge piece of glass. It was all worth it though. It would be a shame to hide the tile work with a sliding door or shower curtain!

Well, there it is! Not bad at all for a couple of amateurs. After months of scrounging up money & Christina's prodding me along, it's finally done. It was so well worth it. I now feel like I'm at a fancy hotel every time I step into my bathroom. Would I do it again...well, Christina already has plans for our other bathroom, so, it seems I will be doing this again. I'll let you know how that one turns out...in maybe a year or two!
