Wooo Hooo Bathroom's Done!

Last November Doug stuck his knee through the tile wall in the shower (note the plastic duct taped to the back wall in the before photo). This May, we got a contractor to fix the mess before the end of July. Doug didn't want to take the time do it himself as he wanted to save his vacation for after July (my due date). I just wanted it done quickly to minimize the time trekking to the basement middle of the night. Yep, 7 months pregnant and having the only full bathroom renovated -- no second shower and one part bathroom in the basement. Smaaart.

And while we were at it, we decided to do a thorough job of it and gut the room completely, not just fix the shower stall.

Once the contractor did his thing, "we" (read "Doug") still had quite a bit of finishing to do like painting, putting up hooks, making the mirror frame, installing the vanity back splash. My part has to do with buying new towels and shower curtain, which is proving more difficult than expected. :)

Today Doug installed the mirror and the back splash.
I must say, I do like the final result.
