1/2 Bath Final Stretch

Posted Feb 1st, 12 at 9:33 am by xand83 (Solar Beech / Adel White Kitchen + Baths)
Final stretch! Of course, after thinking about my faucet rant from yesterday (see previous post) and doing a little more research on Ikea faucets, I decided to forgo the Grundtal faucet all together. It's going back before I even bother. After hearing that the washers can cause the hoses to leak...

1/2 Bath in Progress

Posted Jan 16th, 12 at 5:57 pm by xand83 (Solar Beech / Adel White Kitchen + Baths)


Hi All!

It's been a little over a year since finishing the kitchen. Now it's time for the small 1/2 bath in the hallway. And when I say small, I'm not kidding. There is a small nook for the toilet, one for the sink, and then a niche that is currently dead space. ...
