Detail on the Trim Work

The Mikes have done it again: they have managed to make a really funky wall with unsightly seams look really slick with the way that they have configured the bits of trim work. Tomorrow it will be painted but this gives you an idea of how many pieces of trim it took to cover up this ledge in the middle of the wall: 4 pieces on the wall and two on the stairs.

And where the angles meet, the join is really, well, professional!

This is also in the stairwell. It makes a huge difference having baseboards! The carpet comes on Monday, so that nasty burgundy stuff will soon disappear.
Bathroom update: the deflector glass is in the shower! No water for 72 hours, therefore no showering in there ...yet. The sealant on the wall is drying, but the glass is really awesome.

The edges are really nicely done and the glass is about quarter-inch thick. I can't wait for 72 hours-- I want to test the shower head!
