After a whirlwind week with Kat here and our contractor finishing up our shower renovation I'm finally back to blogging. You remember the old shower, yes? Here's what it looks like now:
My guy has a bit of paint touch-up work to do on the walls and baseboards, and he'll be installing new towel hangars. We'll also be having custom glass doors added so we don't have to use shower curtains anymore, but otherwise it's ready. I took the very first shower in it last night, and having the room to move around and the light to see what I'm doing was amazing.
The tile is so much prettier than the prefabbed shell of the old shower (I feel safer with tile versus slippery fiberglass under my feet, too.)
It's definitely not cheap to do a renovation like this, but worth it in the long run. We also discovered and fixed a water leak we didn't know we had, so that was a big bonus.
Designing the new shower, picking out the tile and making sure it worked for both of us took time, but it was also worth it. We're both happy with the end result, which is all that matters.
