Some of you may be curious to see how our guest bathroom renovation is coming along, so I thought I'd provide some photos :).
Here it is right before we began. Not so bad, right? Honestly, this is why we figured we'd wait to rennovate, that is until it started rotting!!
And here it is now, on day 4 of gutting the place! Yikes, it looks like something out of a horror film! You can literally see right down to the earth under our house! The whole floor and partway up the walls around the bath was completely rotten. G said it's probably been leaking ever since it was installed back in the '80's!!
In any case, I've been firming up my design choices and shopping up a storm online while G has been diligently working on the renovation.
So far I've ordered:
Double-sconce from Restoration Hardware. I wanted a single sconce on either side, but alas there wasn't enough room.
We changed gears and decided to go with a square rather than round sink. I'm excited to see how it works in our mostly feminine bathroom.
The faucet I originally wanted had an 8-10 week backorder so I opted for a simple yet elegant alternative by Moen. I'm now convinced it will look better anyway! I think the other one, which was quite a bit more ornate, might have overwhelmed the small vanity and sink!
It took forever to find a basic carerra marble vanity top for use with a vessel sink, but I finally found this one by Pegasus - phew!
And yes, we purchased this rustic reclaimed wood mirror from Lowes. I still love it.
So anyway, that's about it on the update. Can't wait to post pics of the final project :). Until the next time my friends, have a great day!!
Wow! Cool! I like it and can't wait to use it! :)
