My hubby is un-freakin-believable!!(w/pics)
He wasn't happy with our HGTV bathroom (because he didn't have any say in it), so last weekend he spent his time rearranging all the plumbing. He moved the toilet from one wall to the other, and took out the sink/vanity they gave us, and installed a double-sink.
We're still not finished - We have to install a kickboard on the vanity, install new lighting and new mirrors.
He did it ALL by himself - I don't know how he knows how to do this stuff!!! 
Whatcha think?

You can see what it looked like before in the other album...

WOW!! I think it looks like it will work so much better this way, plus having that double sink is so nice! It's nice having a handy husband

Re: My hubby is un-freakin-believable!!(w/pics)
Much much better. One thing - Over the second sink, I would put another mirror that matches the mirror you already have.
Great work

Yeah, we're going to install one long mirror instead, and frame it in something that matches, and re-do the lighting... and THEN we'll be DONE!

Very nice.
You will LOVE having a double sink. Probably just as much as the tub
Looks great

Re: My hubby is un-freakin-believable!!(w/pics)
Ok, I'll be honest. When I was watching the show O was thinking... what is with this layout? Who wants to sit on a toilet floating on such a long wall.... they could have at least placed a privacy 1/2 wall btwn the toilet and the tub
I actually invisioned the exact layout he changed it to. It maximizes the space and makes a lot more sense.
What no pics of the glass block?
So how did he learn how to do all of this? Is his Dad handy?

Yeah, I've been hearing the SAME EXACT complaints from him for the last 8 months  The reason why they did it that way was to save costs - they didn't want to pay to rearrange all the plumbing, I presume.
Nope, Dad was an accountant and died when he was 13. Truly, I have no idea how he knows how to do this stuff. Maybe he's a secret CIA-contractor agent?  He gutted and remodeled our last house on his own, and to my disbelief, all his plumbing and electrical work passed inspection!

I do think it works in a bathroom. I like bright colors in that room. Everything looks gorgeous in there. Now at least you can have a little retreat in there. You certainly need it with all of your stress lately.

He did a great job and the flow looks so much better. It doesn't even look like your DH did any construction!
It's amazing what men can achive when they really want to do something
