Bath Remodel -Update

Today Mr. Chrisman and I went shopping with Mr. Chrisman Sr. (aka Dad, aka contractor-remodeling-our-bathroom), to pick up supplies for the Master Bath remodel (heretofore known as the M. Bath). A few posts previous I presented a mood board for the M. Bath, which due to some good advice from Dad Chrisman has changed a little.

Another reason for the change was an issue we had with the tile -the type we previously decided upon wouldn't work as well as believed. It turned out to be in our benefit though, when we went shopping for different kinds and found very good deals on porcelain tile for the floor and tud surround (with matching quarter round for trimming), and beautiful marble for the vanity top. Both were on clearance and we snatched them up.

Another thing that has changed is the shower curtain. We've been using a very nice striped shower curtain (on previous post's mood board) in our M. Bath. Due to a very fortunate clearance find at Bed, Bath and Beyond, we will be able to hang a lovely white and extra long (so we can follow these wonderful blogger's example) shower curtain in our renovated bathroom.
Here is the revised mood board for those of you who are as nosy as I am.

Bathroom Renovation

As much as I love my new home, I am excited to continually renovate bits and pieces of it until it is truly our nest -full of touches that reflect our personality and taste.
So, naturally, I am thrilled to be renovating the Master Bathroom.
Here's the current status:
And here's the mood board for the renovation:

The lighter colored tile is intended for the floor and wall behind the tub, while the darker tile will be the new top for the vanity. We will detail around the tub with a stripe of the darker, contrasting tile -and vice versa on the vanity.
