Kitchen Renovation - Day 13

The most impressive progress today was in the bathroom.  The toilet was supposed to be installed today, but we learned that our old toilet has a crack in it and so instead of re-installing it, we are going to buy a new one.  Brandon found a good deal on one, so hopefully the bathroom will be fully up and running after one more day!


There is also a little bit of baseboard that still has to be added on the wall with the sink.  The crew is also going to make us a radiator cover for the small radiator in the corner.  This was the only radiator in the whole house that didn't have a cover.  We researched various options on how to make our own radiator cover or how much it would cost to have someone make one for us.  We were surprised to learn how expensive they can be.  So we're thrilled that the guys offered to make one for us as part of our contract.  They are going to use a left-over piece of granite from the kitchen countertop for the top, so it will function like an extra shelf in the bathroom. 


After having trouble fitting the kitchen pendant light in, I was a bit worried about my selection for the bathroom, but I think it works great!
