Making Progress

Well, after many 'o hours of work and toil we've finally made a lot of headway on our bathroom. We have the tile up in the shower and the grout done in most of it. We have the vanity, sink, mirror and new light done. The floor tile and grout done. All we have left is the fan and the toilet.

We went with the white subway tile
because we liked the look and they were cheap.

It's been a long, long job, but Dea and I have learned a lot. She and I have enjoyed spending our time together. I would often think of mom and dad working on their house in Tewksbury or John and Irene working on their house in St. Pete.

We hope to have everything done in a few more days. Travel baseball starts in a week, so we have to be done by then.

Nice job. Looks great. Is there a repeating pattern on subway tile?

Pete Bauer said...

As much as possible. We tried to do a simple brick pattern, but the width was slightly longer than what we wanted, so we'd have to throw in smaller pieces on occasion.

Good job Pete. You and Dea rock on home repairs. Mark had to re-do the kids bathroom, just re-did wall board, not tiles. He too hated the dreaded bathroom!
