Even More Progress

 Today we have a color on the walls and water in the toilet.  

There is water in the bowl!

The color is "carriage house" from Pratt and Lambert and it looks really nice with the tile.  Another great thing about painting is that the nasty turquoise colored ceiling is gone!  It is a proper white ceiling-- and it makes the whole room feel fresh and open.

The worry with the grey is that it can be too brown, too green, too purple, or too blue.  This color seems to lean towards the blue grey, but it works really well with the varying colors of the tile.

The linen closet is painted and the trimmed out and now you can tell that it doesn't go all the way to the ceiling.  While this was not my choice, I do think that it will be a nice feature.  We just have to figure out what is going up there: a plant? a statue? We also have to figure out who will dust up there.



The alcove has been tiled with the thinset and left to dry before installing.  I think that they will cut the hole for it on Monday, and finish tiling the shower.  Grout will be applied on Tuesday for that wall and I guess on Wednesday, we will get the shower head and tub faucet.

The toilet is a Kohler toilet, in the Memoirs style.  It looks very pretty and even though there is water in the bowl, no one has flushed it yet.

 

And in the stairwell, the hole in the plaster has been patched with drywall and spackle.  Drying for the rest of the weekend, it will be ready for sanding on Monday.  Sigh.
