Happy 4th of July.
I know, I know. It’s been said before – clawfoot tubs do not make great showers. But guess what? If my husband is repairing the shower downstairs, I am not going to take a bath every night for a month. As a result, we need to convert the small clawfoot tub into a working shower….
I love clawfoot tubs. I’m in the process of refinishing mine for my little coast house. I still like taking a bath in a clawfoot over a jet tub. Besides they are sooo romantic. I’ve for the clawfoot!!!
Thanks Kathleen! I love it too. Honestly, however, I would much rather make use of it by being a shower. I really have no time for baths these days!!
You know I love a clawfoot. They might not be ideal for showers but they can do in a pinch when you’re other bathroom is out of service.
Isn’ t it scary to have this done? Whenever I get to this stage, I always think ‘ Well, there is no turning back now!’ and have a mini panic attack before getting back to work 🙂
Completely. We’re doing this ourselves. Scary and exciting at the same time. Surprisingly enough, the electrical was all updated, nothing was needed – plumbing again, staying the same.
But Lath and Plaster? Ugh!
We’re just a tiny bit burnt out from it though, takes a lot out of you.
I can only imagine what it would be like to do a kitchen. Although, imagining would be all that would happen! I would leave that one – – I think (but reserve my right to change my mind) to the experts.
