The Bathroom is DONE!

The bathroom is finally done!  I personally think it looks great, but I'll let you be the judge of that :)

Here is a picture of the overall look as you are walking in.  We decided to keep the pocket door instead of opening it up fully just in case the person that buys the house next has two kids, and one needs to use the bathroom while the other is getting ready.  That was our thought process behind it but don't really know if it was the right decision for resale or not.
Here are a couple pictures of the vanity.  We knew we wanted a furniture-style vanity, and found a great deal at Southeastern Salvage, a discount building materials store in Birmingham.  It is teak wood, so we didn't have to get a separate top, which was a big money saver!
The shower head ended up being quite an ordeal.  We had one picked out, but it was too low, so we decided to go with this one.  There also aren't many options for 3-handle configurations, but we knew we didn't want to pay to re-plumb what we originally had, so we chose this one out of like 3 options.
The tile inset ended up looking really nice, and it is very useful and keeps things from looking cluttered.
 
The shower curtain was also a cause of debate between Joey and I.  I ended up winning :)
Overall, both Joey and I are really pleased and look forward to enjoying our new bathroom for the next couple of years!
