Recessed Lighting all around!


I am very excited! We just sent back the old bath fan/combo we had because the new bath/fan combos I ordered look like recessed lighting! I am so excited not to have an obtrusive fan on our otherwise sleek lighting arrangements! Also, because I poured through hundreds upon hundreds of vanity lights and did not really find one that I liked, we decided to go untraditional and just have small 4 inch recessed lights above our vanity table. The thick-rimmed mirror is so prominent a light would be lost and/or out of place anyway. Yay! I am getting more and more eager to see this bathroom completed!

Almost Fully Functional Bath



Months in the making, our full bath at Fuller is almost fully functional. The shower, tub, and toilet are all usable but the aesthetics and the sink are lacking. We have discovered the joys of mudding drywall (and decided that we would hang but hopefully hire out to mud the drywall at Logan...). We have pictures of the progress. We've planned our outlets and switches, choose our lighting (mostly recessed), and snaked electrical wires. Also, we just got our new window installed today! So it's starting to come together. We need to finish up electrical, paint, and install the sink. Soon, we'll repaint the built-in storage, choose and put in crown molding and trim, and (in the long run) obtain our glass shower doors. It's looking better and better. How encouraging!


It's taking forever, I realize, but can we please reflect on what the bathroom used to look like?
