Bathroom Makeover

This is was our bathroom before
Gotta make a plan first! Objective -Get rid of the bathtub, install glass mosaic tiles in the shower area and glass block to separate the shower area.
We found all kinds of weird stuff inside the walls, like hidden mirrors
Bathroom - totally gutted. Brian removed the tub alone! The floor was rotted, wood needed to be replaced in some spots.
We made two little ledges into the wall for the shampoos and stuff. I did the tile again but realized that this time it was much more difficult to get it straight. Got the tile again from www.cooltiles.com. I looked at everything on clearance and found a nice yellowish color for $5.00 per sheet.
Thanks to our friends who helped at the end to get it done. Mirror - Thrift Store $2.00, Vanity cabinet - Thrift Store $5.00 Brian refinished it, sanded, stained, clear coated and waxed.
Storage was an issue, so in between two beams we left this opening for the rolled up towels.
And where that hidden mirror was, we also left a tiled hole for a candle? Or a perfume..
It was hard to find a fexible shower head that mounts on the wall.
