The center tile area is where the tub is going to be - the pebble tile goes all the way to the right where it meets the border tile in front of the shower. There's also a small border of the darker tile in the "Throne" area and the rest will be the pebbles:
The shower will be done in a beige tile similar in style to the darker squares. The vanity we ordered today will have an ivory marble counter with a square, granite vessel. I hope it will bring out the ivory accents in the tile, but it'll be what it'll be at this point.
I did just figure out that the vanity we bought for the downstairs bath has not only the vanity, but the vessel and faucet!! So we're headed back to Lowes to return the vessel and faucet we bought because we don't read very carefully. But at least we caught it (-:
On a different note - this is approximately what the kitchen will look ike when all is said and done:
With a black and orange mottled granite counter top. The window by the stove will be a green house window. The view from the kitchen into the house will be:
and it's amazing how bright it is with all the recessed lighting! I'm pretty sure that all the money we're going to save with the heat pump and on-demand water heater is going to be lost to all the lights we have now, but it's worth the trade off!
The electrical inspection went without a hitch yesterday, but the framing inspection has been delayed 'til Tuesday. I'm not too worried about passing the inspection, but the delay is directly affecting the time table for insulating the walls, putting the plywood up and sheet rocking etc. But my new phrase covers just about ever contingency - it is what it is.
We got the second 30% disbursement from the bank so now it's a function of finishing, getting the final inspection for the bank and we should get the last disbursement. I think everyone will heave a heavy sigh of relief when we sign off on the completion.
Then we'll be on to planning the "After the Fire" party!
