Oh the joy when all the dust and noise is over with and you finally can clean your new bathroom!
Loved working with the men from Bassett Home Improvement but it was great to see them depart...

So happy for having it shiny and clean on Wednesday, before Thanksgiving.
A shiny new bathroom... matching our treasured white lacquered Italian vanity cabinet!
Our shower is wider than previous.
We did have to wait 1.5 week on the custom ordered shower door from Dublin Glass and Window Co.
The MAIN reason we redid our bathroom was because of the sliding door from 6 years ago getting STUCK!
YES, WE GOT TRAPPED INSIDE.
Lowe's is NO LONGER selling this DreamLine Mirage Frameless Sliding Shower Door!
Guess we both were not the only ones that got stuck...

Direct wire got installed for this shaving/makeup mirror with LED light.
Love the glossy paint on the walls, after they'd removed the wall paper.
We also opted for this very special American Standard 2034.014.020 Champion-4 Right Height One-Piece Elongated Toilet, White (Amazon).
Our contractor said it was the easiest toilet he ever installed!
It is also supposed to have a special 'EverClean surface' and we hope that it will not get water stained under the rim like our previous Toto did.
Our water quality is such as with rust stains... We use a water filter system but still.
Hate things that are not clean-clean.

Our Hotel Cabinet with Cubbies moved now to this side of the bathroom.
We of course kept our Danish Damixa faucet and shower head.

Grab bar got installed this Monday morning...
It is not a huge bathroom but cozy, with a bathroom heater fan above, and practical!
It can serve us for many years to come.
Thanks for your visit and comment!

WOW, your bathroom is fantastic! Looks really great and so bright!
ReplyDeleteWishing you a happy Weekend, sending Love and hugs, Claudia xo
Dearest Claudia,
DeleteYes it is a lovely room now and it will serve us well!
Hugs,

Hello Mariette, There is nothing like fixing things up exactly the way you want them. In Taiwan we have great water, but the older-style on-demand heaters don't work well and break down all the time. Finally, I got a better quality heater, and can't believe how long I suffered with the old one!
ReplyDelete--Jim
Dearest Jim,
DeleteYes indeed one can suffer because of certain poor quality items that we need for daily life. Not even a luxury but a necessity. In Indonesia we had only a gas boiler and that caused often the experience of suddenly getting doused with ice cold (mountains) water... We take these luxuries for granted while they function perfectly!
Hugs,
Mariette
Dear Mariette,
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!! Your bathroom is perfectly beautiful.So clean! That is a really refreshing place.
Have a good weekend.
Dearest Tomoko,
DeleteYes it is the way we wanted it all along and finally got it all worked out.
Hugs,
Mariette

Liebe Elisabeth,
DeleteJa, gemütlich auch wegen die Wärme Lampe das macht einen riesigen Unterschied.
Soviel das unser Deutscher 'Sohn' eine mitgenommen hat um in der Eiffel ein zu bauen!

Hello dear Mariette!
ReplyDeleteWow! Your bathroom looks so bright,clean and everything in order!
Like the white Italian vanity cabinet! Thank you for sharing!
Wishing you a lovely day and a happy weekend! Hugs!
Dearest Dimi,
DeleteIt is at its very best indeed and we can now enjoy the luxury and simplicity with easy cleaning.
That Italian white lacquered vanity cabinet we will never tire of.
Hugs,
Mariette
Looks beautiful Mariette and the shower is so spacious.
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely weekend.
Dearest Sami,
DeleteThis shower is a lot wider than it was before and we love it, one could get in together now!
Hugs,
Mariette
I love, love your sparkling beautiful new bathroom. Especially the huge shower and the cabinet over the toilet ... the vanity cabinet is stunning!
ReplyDeleteLove,
Helen
Dearest Helen,
DeleteThank you and we are over the moon with this completion and enjoy it daily.
Just simple beauty and the Italian vanity is perfect with its halogene lights and beveled glass mirror.
Hugs,
Mariette
Congratulations! Now it is ready! Beautiful bathroom. Have a nice weekend
ReplyDeleteDearest Anne,
DeleteYes, all projects eventually come to an end and we already are quite used to it.
Hugs,
Mariette
Looks fantastic! Love all your choices, Mariette! Very warm, cozy and hopefully easy to clean.
ReplyDeleteDearest Debbie,
DeleteThank you, to us it is a great Italian/Danish mix with local labor and tiles bought here.
As for the cleaning, smooth lines and nothing on the wall in that shower makes for very swift and easy cleaning.
Hugs,
Mariette
My heavens, what a fine bathroom renovation. I like the idea of the heat lamp as I would love to have one. The mirror is something my husband would love too. Very nice.
ReplyDeletebetsy
Dearest Betsy,
DeleteThank you and indeed, at the end it all worked out perfectly and it was worth all the dust etc.
The heat lamp idea we got in the 80s while working in Australia and visiting a friend. We had it built into both of our bathrooms when we built this home in 1990 and would not want to do without it again. Lowe's is selling them. Just look for: Aero Pure LLC Aero Pure Bathroom Heater Fans 1-Sone 80-CFM White Bathroom Fan with Heater

Fijn dat het nu helemaal af is en naar jullie zin. Hier heb je jaren plezier van.
ReplyDeleteFijne zondag, lieve groet
Beste Willy,
DeleteJa, met dergelijke klussen is het vaak door de zure appel heen bijten en nu geniet je er elke dag van, zolang je leeft!
Liefs,
Mariette
It looks great! I too have that makeup mirror. Sometimes my magnified face scares me. I envy the heat lamp...I remember that my grandmother had a small gas heater on the wall of the bathroom...wish they still sold those. Your new header is so festive.
ReplyDeleteDearest Janey,
DeleteYeah, at times it makes you laugh when looking in a mirror without glasses on... that is already a difference and this one shows it ALL! But it is oh so practical, also for shaving. The bathroom heater fan from Lowe's is something we could not do without any more. Not so much for summer time but there are more days that you use it than not.
Sending you hugs,
Mariette
Glad renovation is over. I can understand the feeling when all the noise and dust are finally gone :-) Your bathroom looks beautiful, like the one in a hotel room! It must be really nice to have heat lamp there. Enjoy your renewed bathroom, Mariette :-)
ReplyDeleteDearest Tamago,
DeleteVery glad it is over with and the kitties are happy too; no more hiding into the yard when those cars pulled up with workers. Yes, the heater fan is a must for both of us; we're hooked!
Hugs,
Mariette
Ficou muito boa a renovação, gostei dos tons escolhidos.
ReplyDeleteUm abraço e boa semana.
