The stonework in the master bathroom is certainly coming along well though. The air tub is stoned with the oro cappuccino on the sides and the latte travertine on top. There will be a stone chair rail along the top edge of the tub (as well as on the shower) that is similar to the color of the oro cappuccino.
And the shower walls have been started also - the tiler decided that the small stones (the very top row in this photo) need to be 3 rows instead of 2 rows. He also thought it would look better to stagger the rows so the center row is 1/2 stone off from the row above and below. It will give the small stones more presence in the shower if he uses 3 rows instead of 2. Then he'll use 2 rows instead of 1 up above, toward the top of the shower (also staggered). We picked out a latte-colored epoxy grout that will blend in with the oro cappuccino stones and will be slightly darker than the latte travertine stones.
The tiler and his assistant were the only people working there today. DH found out from the builder that they are closing on another house on Friday of this week, so all the builder's guys are at that house finishing up. We are the next house to finish so (hopefully) that means that they will all descend upon our house next week.If you have been reading my blog for the past couple of weeks, you may remember that the kitchen granite was supposed to be installed yesterday. I'm not exactly clear on why it wasn't, but I think it is going to be installed next Tuesday. Stay tuned...
