The visible part of any project, as opposed to the underlying structure, is what gives it the excitement. Of course in a construction project, the strength and quality of the unseen structure (the bacon) is equally as important, but it is what you see (the sizzle) that seems to matter. The sizzle has indeed begun.
The tub has been getting considerable attention due to it's own special needs. A new access door, a lot of trim work, and a completely new valve set. (Hence the need for an access door.) Notice again the screwy handles, one of which is installed backward. The tub has it's own set of details that is making it sizzle. Below, you see more of the artistic work to feather the sheetrock mud out to meet the tile. Yes, another wall that wasn't... well... perfect... when it was built.
Next, is a nice "during and after" shot. In "But Wait, Don't Take the Counter for Granite," (I just love that pun), I showed the "before" shot showing a gap from a straight piece of granite to a not-so-straight piece of wall. Here, the sheetrock mud has been built up to meet the granite and feathered widely to that any sort of slope is imperceptible.
Next, you can see how it looks with the wall textured, painted, and caulked. Sizzle that supports the bacon.
At this stage of the project, there is a lot happening - quickly. There may be more opportunities to show a progression of photos. The before, during and after perspectives should be a lot of fun and will be a great way to see how it is all coming together.
