Andrew is working on stripping down our current vanity cabinets and we're (when I say 'we' I mean 'he') going to re-finish them with a dark espresso stain. We shopped and shopped for vanities and couldn't find anything we liked in our price range. The vanity we had is in great shape, very sturdy and lots of storage. We think with a completely different finish, two new sparkling white (rectangular) undermount sinks, two completely new granite tops, new faucets, and new knobs, the vanity will look completely updated and fit in with our 'spa' motif. To buy a completely new vanity as sturdy and offering as much storage would have cost somewhere in the range of a cajillion dollars more. And we already promised our life savings and possibly our children to the shower glass and granite guys.
Here are photos from Day 2. The trash guys were not happy with us today, and accidentally shattered the vanity top and part of the shower door all over the road. But away it all went... all that gross flooring, old nasty fixtures and tile, shower floor, shower doors and rotten floor boards. Gone, just like that.
Having a toilet in your yard just resonates high class!
bye-bye bathroom from hell!
Why yes, that is a giant hole in our floor.
Hole in the floor. If I stepped on this I'm sure I'd fall right thru to the family room.
Lots of nice mold and rot behind the shower wall too, ugh.
The hardest part is the middle of the night pee break... I had to tell myself when I woke up at 2 a.m. last night, "Don't go in your bathroom, you'll definitely get a splinter. Plus, there is no toilet and you might fall thru the ceiling!". You remember that scene from The Money Pit....

All frameless shower doors come in several different styles. Frameless folding shower doors can be single or double action, it is up to you. But if your door is to open in just one direction it is crucial that it swings outward into the bathroom to prevent the user from becoming trapped inside.
