Our second major house project is adding a bathroom to bedroom number two. Because the house is around 150 years old and there is no such thing as an even floor or wall, it takes a lot of planning and time, but progress is being made.
 |
| Randel is a visual learner, so again had to tape off the dimensions to to figure out placement |
 |
| Ordering fixtures and finishings in France for a German/American house from companies that spoke English was a challenge, but finally found these beautiful blue Spanish tiles. |
 |
| White and grey marble for the floor |
 |
| A couple of vintage French sketches found at a flea market that helped inspire the color choice |
 |
| Later found this beautiful blue pharmacist's bottle that will work beautifully |
 |
| All new plumbing had to be run up through the living room from the basement |
 |
| The major structure is up |
 |
| Shower seat |
 |
| We had wanted to add a window, but because it would face the church and an historical chateau, the Marie would only approve a skylight, but it does quite a good job of lighting the space. |
 |
| Towel warmer and tiles starting to go in |
 |
| Progress thus far - should be completed in January and then we will start on the kitchen! |
