Over the past few months, my work on the bathroom stalled out, for a number of reasons. This past week, all that changed. I got my hands on a tile saw again, and started to make progress on the shower head wall. I managed to start some tile on the floor of the shower as well. Some tile around the niche had to be removed and will be replaced today, as I had made a few of the pieces too big. Once the niche is patched up, the rest of it should go up fast.
Installing the toilet today was trivial. That was refreshing, as each stage of this project seems to be harder than I thought. Tomorrow I take the granite side and backsplashes to a local place to have them trimmed down to fit the space. After that, they can be installed and the sink/vanity will be complete.
I'm also making a custom cabinet for the bathroom for storage. The cabinet needs to have it's trim applied, stain/varnish, and then install it in the bathroom. That will be the first time that it's truly a sealed off room, and can be used as a half-bath until the shower is complete. Hopefully that's soon though.
I really underestimated this project, but I'm going to be able to apply a lot of lessons to the 1st floor bathroom remodel in a few months time.
