Remodel: Master Bath, part one (or: Turning a trailer into a home fit for a Diva)

Before: Master Bath
"What is a weed? A plant whose virtues have not yet been discovered."
- Ralph Waldo Emerson



The first question people ask: "Why did you buy a trailer?"
Answer: "We couldn't afford a stick built house (on 5 acres) close enough to Bend (Central Oregon) for Mark to commute to work.
Second question: "Why put $ into a remodel on a trailer?"
Answer: "No way in Hell was I going to live in that!...and, since we did most of the work ourselves, we came out fine financially"
