After several days of radio silence I finally have some progress I want to share. The floor is completely covered in tile. Tonight I grout! Chris suggested I put a strip of the decorative tile along the tub and I think it turned out smashing.
The first picture is a top-down angle of the decorative tile along the tub. It's not perfectly straight which may bother me as the days go by but for now I'm completely satisfied.
I also completed 1 1/2 walls last night. In these picture the tiles look pretty straight but working with only a 1/16" spacer doesn't give me a lot of wiggle room. Thanks to Chris' solution-driven nature he was able to help rescue this project when all of the tiles started sliding down the wall...
At the end of the night the inspector decided to come into the bathroom to check on my progress and to make sure everything was acceptable by his very high standards. I think he was pretty pleased with the plumbing as he came, he sniffed, he left.
I had no idea until now that the accent tile really pics up the color of the wood floor in the rest of the place. Nicely done.

ReplyDeleteChris' cat, Hannah Banana, is quite the handycat so I think it's just part of their personalities. She LOVES to be in the thick of things.
