I’m wrapping up my contest entries tonight that I talked about last week. Another entry is E’s bathroom, which started out as lovely as her bedroom. My only regret is that we photographed after the pigeons were removed. (Many thanks to my mother-in-law for that bit of cleanup.) You’ve probably seen photos before, but here were some test shots I took night before last. It’s tricky to photograph a smallish space without a lot of distortion at the edges or capturing yourself or weird perspectives in the oversized mirrors, but these show the transformation fairly well. One more category to write up tonight, and then I’m done. We’ll see how it goes! My favorite part of this room is knowing that both the sink and the tub were sitting in the first floor kitchen when we bought the place and that we were able to reglaze and reuse them. The tub weighs just under 300 pounds (without water) and we invited a few guys over with a pizza and beer bribe to get it moved from the basement up to the top floor. That’s forty-four stairs if you’re counting.
And if you are holding onto the rim of a 300 pound cast iron tub on an incline, then you’re counting…
