Fall 2020 - One Room Challenge - Week 3
Time is zooming by, Week 3 is here and the project is progressing with some little hiccups as some of the things have yet to come to complete the project.
In my last post, I mentioned that before the tiles were into be installed there was a waterproof membrane is first laid down and then test to ensure that there will be no leaks after the tiles have been installed. You can read my previous posts from the links below
This was a two-day process to check for leaks and the tiles have been installed and things are coming together.
This bathroom was dark and looked very closed in. The wider, larger, and light-colored tiles make this small bathroom larger. The way the tile is laid down is also the trick in making the space look larger. The tiles are installed lengthwise toward the shower, and then the shower surround was installed vertically to let your eye travel to the height of the room. We have an antique bronze Schluter (edging), as you can see the edge of the shower looks framed with it as are the window and the niche.
Just look at the difference from where we started in the picture below.
The wood flooring, the wall at the edge of the tub enclosing it, and the tub and shower surround walls are also dark.
We are eliminating the builder-installed light and relocating it in the form of a pot light above the shower to light up that area as the shower doors selected by the client are frosted with a design in the middle of it. The light above the vanity will have clear glass to keep the bathroom bright have an open feel.
This is the update for you all till next week where I am hoping all will start to shape up and coming close to the end of the project. I can envision the space already and can’t wait to see it implemented.
This has been an amazing learning experience of remodeling a bathroom that I am able to share with you all through the One Room Challenge hosted by the Better Homes and Gardens. I am looking forward to participating in the future as well. This has been a lot of fun. I have visited some of the site links of my fellow participants and their projects are looking great. Can’t wait to see everyone’s completed projects. You can look at theirs here.
Have A Fabulous Day!
