House updates

Have not posted my progress on the house lately. So after some clean up this afternoon, I am sitting down to post where I am at.












The shower stall was installed after the plumber helped with the base. I immediately covered it up with paper to prevent it from getting scratched or whatever while I drywalled and painted around it. I also started color testing for the final wall color. Many people can tell you that I can take several rounds on a color before I am happy. This bathroom will already have a white shower stall and sink with blue cabinets. So i searched around for what could coordinate with these and the brushed aluminum trim going in. So the pic has a blue and yellow I had in hand along with a Ralph Lauren Kahki i found. I also got a chance to install the new vanity light and update the GFI electrics.





My first experience with "self leveling" concrete was not quite "flat" I has what could be compared to a relief map of the moon as opposed to a smooth floor. So after 2 more pours - I finally had a surface ready for tile. I located a ceramic tile with the slate look I was hoping foor and have spent this week cutting and prepping for gluing the tile to the floor. I just located aluminum trim to run along the tile edges and the tile to floor transition and will be fitting those tomorrow.
