Well... it seems that the original thread made its way to the archives, so I dug it up and here's a link for anyone who wants to catch up from the beginning. beginning the make-over Don wanted to finish most of it before he had his surgery yesterday. The only things left to do are the door and drawer fronts of the vanity, and a frame around the mirror. It's difficult to take good pictures in the small distance of the room, so here are the best ones I have - he said he has some, so I'll post more when he sends them to this computer. The far corner of the tub/shower - see the pillow??? I'm soooooooooo ready to take that first relaxing bath! Another of the same corner showing the top tile: The opposite wall with the new brushed pewter fixtures: Tomorrow I will wash the new towels and add them to the room - got the shower curtain up too - will take more pictures then.

Thanks, all! Diane - it's called seagreen - Don had taken this picture the other day - it shows the color a bit better... still a tiny bit off but you get the idea. There is a window at the far end of the room - it's long and narrow - I'm hoping to put up a glass shelf for plants, and there is a hanger in front of the window - not a lot of space, but enough for a few. He also took this one which shows the corner better than mine... Just took this of the new shower curtain - it's so hard to take good pictures in there. :rolleyes: mel - I have only posted bits and pieces about Don's surgery - it's not really in 1 place - I think I'll go post about it in the dial-up deli now - thanks for asking.

Very nice Lynne, you picked a great shower curtain that goes really well with the color of the tiles and stuff. I really like it.

It's funny Triss - I had this curtain waaaaaaaaaay before I chose the tiles! I had even misplaced it, when Don started tearing out the old bathroom, and only recently found it again - I was so thrilled that it went with the tiles so well!

Amy took the first / last night - all seems good! She even went as far as to say that she liked the bathroom now that the towels and rugs are in there. I really liked that green color too, Diane! I have 2 different towels that match it exactly - one is called rich aqua, and the other is called Greenwood Lane. Same exact color - different companies. I took a few more shots yesterday - again, it's so hard to get a good view in a small space. The sinks before putting everything back underneath and on top - Don hasn't painted the doors or drawer fronts yet, so they are still open. Close-up of tiling on vanity counter and sink. Don got a piece of plywood for the counter and did all the tiling himself - he did a great job, didn't he???

Thanks, Jiffy! I have 2 smaller ones up above the main mirror - Don is still going to build a frame around the large mirror. Here are the 2: close-up

Thanks, Diane!
A little secret - I found them at 2 different T.J.Maxx's last summer. Gotta love those stores - they were all very reasonable!
