Since then, there have been bathrooms retro-fitted into various nooks and crannies of the house. One of these is squeezed into the eaves of a corner of the master bedroom. It is a tiny little space, and has been without any aesthetic appeal whatsoever. The only thing it has really had going for it was all the natural light that pours in through a skylight.
We recently gave our bathroom a face lift with new cabinets and sink, and the removal of some bulky wood trim and an obsolete heater. The heater was the suprise item in this project. Not that it was there. The brown metal box that protruded from the wall was the first thing you saw when you walked in the room after all. The fact that it wasn't actually an electric heater (as we had been told), but was in fact a hot water radiator was a surprise. But at this point, we expect a surprise somewhere in every project. You know, the kind of surprise that means more work. It just turned out to involve plumbing this time.
Unfortunately, I didn't take a before photo, but even without seeing the horrifying leftover Home Depot-ish ill-fitting, bulky cabinet, and bright yellow trim paint, (not to mention the heater) the end result might be appreciated on its own merits.

Wouldn't a wide angle lens be nice? sigh
