OMG!

In our basement bathroom, there isn't that kind of logistical problem, I think the people we bought the house from used that bathroom to give their dog a bath, well, technically a shower. Like I said, it's functional, it just looks so, so bad.

(OT) I just got two of those insulators and use them to route the the garden hose around the planters. They fit nicely over 1/2” pipe and rotate freely.

My grandparents owned an antique shop when I was a kid and I inherited the irresistible urge to scavenge. Insulators are expensive in antique shops and are getting harder to find “in the wild”. But one day on my way to work I realized an old hydro pole (of a line that no longer had any wires) had fallen in the night. All but one of the insulators was smashed but there was one perfect one without so much as a chip.

Like the bathroom redo. A very good improvement.

Wow! What a difference. So much lighter and fresher. And that tile is amazing!
