Did not build the cabinets, not enough time for that and get the bath up an running ASAP.
Let's not confuse the issue with facts!
Did you do everything except the cabinet? Very nice.
Must be a woman thing, the shower curtain matches the mosaic tiles.

Luka and Jeff - You have to READ the title.It say's "Wife's 'Spa' Bath" NOT "Wife IN 'Spa' Bath". Sheesh.(snarling in frustration) Warm, cold, warm, cold, cold rain/hail, warm, cold. For Pete's sake, make up your mind!
Yeah !Exactly !!He said "WIFE'S 'Spa' Bath"...Not just "Spa Bath".It's freakin false advertisin', I tells ya !

I don't care how it is advertised it still looks great.
I love the idea of the built ins'. My wife and I have a bad habit of not putting things in storage units that require a door to be opened or a drawer to be pulled. So it sits on any flat surface that can be found. The dresser is a fine example. Piled high with clean cloths and the drawers will be empty.
Thanks for sharing your project with us. Please be sure to get us a finil picture of it when it is completed.

I will always be a beginner as I am always learning.
Working on matching the cabinet stain on the trim now, and still a few tiles short of a complete floor. Details. Know what you mean about things all over the place. All our clothes have been on industrial plastic racks for, well, too long. Need to build a matching dormer for the adjacent bedroom, then hopefully some built in dressers in the knee walls there. Darn honey do list is endless.
Funnest part (not) was installing the niches in the shower at the framing stage and having them align with uncut full field tiles after all the backer board etc. First time working with glass tile, quite a learning curve. Y'all enjoy and thanks for the feedback. Sorry if the lead line got you all excited for nothing , wasn't thinking.Let's not confuse the issue with facts!
I know how that goes. If you had had it all out on paper and followed to the nth degree you wouldn't have come out as good.
My part time job is working as a laborer for a commercial tile setter. He always starts at the front door so that customers are placing there foot on a full 16 x 16 tile. It just makes the whole job look more proffessional.
Well as you know there is always that one job were you can not do things as you would normaly do. This one was a renovation instead of new construction. The tile that was there was around 15 years old but for the most part still in good shape. There was one line of tiles that was cracked from one wall all the way to the other wall. The boss went to one of the walls and chipped out the broken tile to see why it was cracked. What he found was a tile setters horror. A 2'' wide expantion joint with one side of that joint being 2'' higher then the other side. He said that this is were we start. To make this long store short when we got to the front door we still came out a full tile. That was the only part of that whole job that did come out right, with out a lot of extra work to make it right.
