Master Bathroom and more!

John and Craig have been busy with the master bathroom this week....among other things.
They did all the tile and then the vanity came today also!  I LOVE IT!!!   It's coming along beautifully and really all that's left is the plumbing....well we need some sort of mirror and light fixture also.  But I am so happy with how everything looks! 

We have decided to change the wall color....but I am sleeping on it, b/c I can't decide!  I am thinking a tan or the same blue we have in our bedroom.   All I know is that the blue that we have in there doesn't look very good AT ALL now that it's tiled and the vanity is in!   The painters are coming tomorrow to paint both bathrooms so I really have to decide....SOON!

Also the wainscoting is finished in the first floor bathroom and it looks FABULOUS!  It is going to be painted tomorrow also......and I know it will look amazing!

The vanity is in!   It's NOT black....the lighting is so bad in here right now that it looks black.  It's a very dark brown! 

Soooo...again all that needs to be done is plumbing...and a mirror and light fixture! 

But everything is coming along and it's going pretty quickly now!

Tomorrow we have final paint in the bathrooms...while John and Craig finish up some last minute inside stuff......stairs going to the basement, some final trim, interior door knob/pulls and more!

Monday we should have the plumber here installing all the sink plumbing, toilets and hopefully baseboard heat. 

And as we quickly approach Christmas we are having the floors finished on the 17th and 18th.....followed by our bedroom furniture delivered the 20th AND our stove, fridge and dishwasher....then on the 21st we have our mattress coming......and I am getting more and more excited!!!!!

Tile! Tile! Tile!

Today was the first bathroom tile day!  They spent the whole day on the first floor bathroom tile!
This morning we decided to go with a "brick road" pattern on the shower walls....and after seeing it I think it's perfect! 
Just to remind everyone...we went with a rectangle ceramic tile in a very slight off white.  Originally we were going to do the whole bathroom in tile...all the walls, the whole way around, partially up.  But after talking about the cost, we decided to go with tile in just the shower...and then do wainscoting on the other walls.

Within the white tile there will be a strip of green glass mosaics as a boarder.  Brand is SICIS.

And on the floor is a chocolate brown ceramic tile in a 12x12.   It's by LAFAENZA.

And here is the almost finished tile!  The only thing we need is the grout and the green glass mosaics. 
I am really happy with how it turned out and can't wait to see it finished and all the plumbing fixtures in it!

Tomorrow is the master bathroom!

We also finished grouting and sealing the mudroom slate floor and again I am so happy with how it turned out.   The color we went with was "Beach Sand" and we used THIS sealer on it!  After it was installed, we waited 2 days, then with a roller Joe applied it.  We did 2 coats over the weekend.  On Monday, Craig grouted, then last night Joe put the final coat on it.  Now it's ready to be used! 

Everything is coming together!!!!!!
