Master bedroom and bath remodel

Ever since we moved into our house, we've been dreaming of redoing our bedroom and master bath and actually buying a bedroom furniture set (I was tired of using crates as bedside tables after 12 years of marriage). We had pretty grand dreams. But a bit of practicality creeped in and we considered our options. We decided to get the most bang for our buck. So, after 3 years of dreaming, scheming and a bit of saving (money is always an issue of course), we began to remodel. Here's what we are doing...

Here are some pictures of what it's looking like so far...just baseboards and furniture (and of course decorative touches) left.

-Bathroom counter, lighting and knobs (we would've loved to have bought a whole new vanity cabinet, had the faucet come out of the wall, put in a grand bathtub and a separate glass tile shower...but...)




-Bedroom floors, Bamboo Flooring (we got what we wanted there, lumberliquidators for $3 per sq. ft and installed ourselves) and a rug (someday)



-Paint (Rhett wanted lighter than this, I wanted a shade darker in the bedroom...we stuck to the middle road there)
-Furniture (not pictured but on it's way...will post when it comes)

It shouldn't, but yes, that would be a problem. :-) but we know exactly how to detach the pipes below. It's just my job to keep my hair out of it.

Looks great, Julie! Can't wait to see the new furniture. It's fun to live vicariously.

I have never seen a sink like that! There's no sink! How does the water not pour off the front of the tile? Crazy! I am amazed!
