The downstairs bathroom.....

Here we go! You may have wondered why we have never posted pictures of the downstairs bathroom on the blog. It's because we have not been big fans of it. The woman who lived here before us was into carpeting and she ended up putting some in the bathroom! So I went to Rochester over the weekend and Dave pulled up the carpeting and pads and started working on the floor. Today I got home and the clawfoot tub was in the garage!!! Mark helped him take it out, and I am amazed that they got it out there. Now we were going to work as much as possible to get the floor tiled. This is the bathroom tonight. Sorry I didn't get the proposed tile in the photo. It's white octagons with black dots in between the octagons. Hopefully I will be able to post them soon.

Speaking of tile, we also tiled the backsplash in the pantry. We had to get new moulding to put around it and once we get it on we can grout it. Here it is. The tiles are seconds from our friend Jess's family's store in Santa Fe. They look like pretty great seconds to us!
