So Close!

We could see the finished bathroom!  It was almost a done deal!  The walls are painted, the tile is down,

 

 

The vanities are in place and ready to have the plumbing connected, and the light fixtures I provided were dutifully hung.  Oops!  They are antique nickel instead of brushed!  Down they come.  Then,

 

 

 we discovered that the drain pipes have been installed incorrectly (too high in the wall) and can't be connected to the sinks.  Ahhhh.....we were so close! 

 But, we moved the vanities out of the way,

 

 

 cut a hole in the wall, all the way across the room and had the pipes moved.  I thought I had a picture of the devastation but it isn't at my fingertips at the moment.  Here's the nearly repaired wall.  Now we wait for mud to dry, texture to be added, and then I will paint the wall again and we will replace the vanities.  And the light fixtures, in the correct color :)

 

                That's ok.  Just another little bump in Renovation Road!
