Wow its been a month since I posted.....got a few more things done now. I built the vanity base myself then Aaron, Wyatt, and Blake helped with the rest. Was heavy to raise to install but we did it. I also stained the logs in this room, ck out the painting and writing on the walls behind the tub....lol....needed some place to test paint. Like I said in the last blog the wood was old and from the cabinets from the house that I was raised in, so I worked around the doors more less. This room is so much smaller than I expected but I had to build the cabinets a certain size for the sink to fit, and now I had to raise the tub because of the p-trap being left out so steps to get into tub makes it even smaller. I built the shower base, then Randy came in off a Kentucky job for Mothers Day weekend and helped me install the shower, he had to leave before the plumbing was done so on Monday I started the plumbing....wow what a job that turned out to be! We had bought the wrong kind of glue sooooooooo every time I turned on the water I had a leak! Wasn't till the third leak I went to the Do It Center and they told me was the wrong glue...uggg...Thanks to Steve we got it all figured out now...Thanks again Steve. Now all the piping is in and shower works great! Molding is on, Randy framed the closet and Aaron and I finished it....looks good eh? All I have left to do is install the doors after I clear coat them and guest bath will be done! Yay! oops and make the counter top.....I'm doing a concrete overlay.....another new thing to me but my brother Craig is talking me thru this one over the phone...hehe...I'm gonna be a house builder yet! Get NO ideas I'm NOT going to do this again if I can help it! Last pic Wyatt and Blake are in the cabinet sticking their hands out...guess its bigger than I thought. Last pic Aaron is pretending to nail them in the cabinet....see they do have some fun while working.
