Bathroom finale

IT'S DONE.

The mirrors were installed this morning, and I have to say- I'm verklempt.
Honestly, I didn't expect them to make such a difference, but when you're used to a blank wall, it doesn't take much to impress.

There's merely a few minor details left, none of which keep us from releasing a heavy sigh of relief that this project is completed.

Back in January when this entire adventure began, I hoped for three things:
1) the project would be done on time
2) when finished it would be beautiful
3) the project would be fun

Let's see how it went-
On time?  Not so much.  Is any renovation?
Beautiful?  Look at the finished product why don't you:



Fun?  Not really sure how to answer that one. It's always fun in the beginning, with the excitement and potential.  Somewhere along the way that gets shoved under all the exhaustion and frustration of a seemingly endless endeavor.  Let's decide to call the result fun, rather than the process, shall we?

Enjoy your day!

Alllllmmooooosssstttt done

For the past week we've been using the new bathroom- hooray!
A few small details are left to be finished, one of which is key for a fully functioning bathroom- mirrors.  They're currently on order, and should be here within the next week or two.  Seeing as I've endured bigger and more problematic circumstances, I think I can manage.

Since I can't do my own hair without a mirror, I've asked Nelson to style it for me until the mirrors arrive. He's assured me he's as good as my stylist, if not better.  Pictures to follow.

Toodles!
