Darle's job has been very stressful lately. As the manager of his office he is dealing with insubordination and general lack of effort on a daily basis. Which I think in this economy is foolish. A wise man always builds his house up on a rock. As usual in this house, Darle has a project going. This is one of the "major" ones though. We (he) is remodeling the Master bath and closet. There was a bunch of unused space in the closet so he knocked out the wall shared with the shower. The plan is to make the closet more functional and the bathroom bigger. We never used the shower in there because it was a single stand up shower. Also, the toilet was so close to the shower that your knees were in the shower while sitting on the toilet. At this point the closet is done and the bathroom is about 20% done. Here are some of the remodel pictures.
This is the closet with the wall into the bath already gone. The part where the ladder is will be where the shower will eventually expand to.
Old Shower.
Bathroom in the process of being torn apart.
The new closet. Both sides are symmetrical. On the floor Darle built a shoe rack that is tilted under the clothes. Perfect shoe solution! On the back wall there is a special portion specially custom made by Darle for my long dresses and shelves above for purses and whatnot. I love whatnot stuff!
This is the shelves and rod for long dresses. (we just don't have the rod yet. But you can see where it will go once we put it in.)
This will be the shower. It will be huge compared to the old one. The big box in the back will be a bench on the back wall of the shower. The shower will have two separate spray heads and a big rain head in the middle. It will feel like a spa in my very own home! (Actually, I have never been to a spa so I have nothing to compare it to).
