I went down to Standard Plumbing on my lunch hour and picked out my plumbing fixtures for the upstairs bathrooms. I decided to go with a more modern looking set for the master bathroom (called “Icon”), and a more traditional set for the hall bathroom (called “Eva). When I finish the basement, I’ll match either one or the other depending on the one I prefer. I stayed with brushed nickel finish on both of them, since I think it will stand the test of time better than the chrome or polished brass that is so popular. Plus I think they’ll stay looking better after use (the chrome fixtures I have in my house always show water spots).

I also ordered all of the bathroom hardware to go with the collection so everything matched. I was surprised to find out that they had replacement handles for standard toilets to match as well.


The plumber is on target to start in the next couple days, and be finished in a couple evenings. The drywall follows next week, and then the following week the travertine goes down in the bathrooms.
