Then the demo started and this it what things looked like.
The first project that we finished was the new tile for the floor. We picked the small hexagon tiles, for a vintage feel. I think we did a pretty good job.
Today we will be tackling the plumbing for the shower. The existing plumbing didn't have a shower, or at least it didn't when we bought the house. When we ripped into the wall we found that there was once plumbing for a shower but the owners had capped it off. We purchased pretty copper pipes to replace the old steel ones. Greg had a crash course in soldering from my dad and successfully soldered all of the pieces together, now we just have to connect them to the existing pipes and solder them on. Everyone cross their fingers for us, we are a little worried about burning the house down, with the torch so close to beams and dry wall. Below is a picture of the original plumbing and then the new pipes ready to go.
