The Grand WC

So you've seen the under construction pictures.   Here are photos of the bathroom done (well, mostly done; some sewing still to do).

Top picture:   Dresser from CL or Freecycle with Dave-and-Susie-mosaiced top, lamp that was in the Hyattsville house when I bought it, and a tapestry I got for free on CL.   Middle picture:   A bit of the new floor, toilet paper man, and the dresser/vanity we mosaiced.   Dave used a copper bird bath for the sink.   Close-ups at a later date.   Bottom pic:   The Vegas tub, pictures from my father's aunt and uncle (presumably from travels to Europe), and more mosaic work.

Bathroom under construction

No pictures here of old bathroom but take my word that it was ugly and icky and had to go.   In its place we designed (not really, but it sounds good) an over the top water closet fit for us!

Dave and my father did all the work.   Except for some minor stuff removal (vanity, medicine cabinet), the men in my life did all the work.   The tub is from Vegas (a great find on Ebay), the walls done in venetian plaster (Doug's work on Trading Spaces fascinated Dave), and the the flooring is this fake wood stuff from Home Depot -- way better than Pergo, I think.   Will post the brand and a close-up later.
