Remodeling











The shower floor.

Naked wall












Stanley worked hard on these pipes.

I finally talked Stanley into redoing a bathroom. I should have taken a picture of before but I forgot so I will describe it. When we added onto our house we put a bathroom next to the laundry room. For along time it was a storage area and then we had an idea...let's make it a place to relax. We found a very large jacuzzi tub. Picture a hot tub but a little smaller. It is not a tub that is self-contained. If you want to use it you have to fill it up each time. No filter, just a big ole tub with jets. It would take about 30 minutes to fill up. Also in this "relaxing" bathroom was a counter and sink and a mirror. No toilet. It was where I did my hair and makeup and that was about it. The tile was a very shiney hunter green. Remember that color?? We put up wall-paper and it really looked nice for a little while. We (maybe just me) plan on updating the other bathrooms soon and I was thinking if we converted this bathroom into a useful one then when we do the other bathrooms we will have another toilet. Makes sense to me. Stanley gutted the bathroom in no time and could just not part with the tub. So it is sitting in my backyard and he says he is going to make it into a hot tub. Now, we didn't use this tub while it was inside of our home why would we use it outside?
He has gotten the piping where it should be, put up the board for tile and now the fun is about to start....the tile. Thanks to Marci it is already picked out and ready to order. Whoo Hoo!
