Susan's New Bathroom, or the beginnings of one. A toilet and a sink. No shower. No walls. Carpet was there, but in this region that's normal in a bath. Before you say it is "not your style": $70 for the Kohler sculpture + $35 for the sink, complete with base, faucet and drain. Architectural salvage, ReStore, etc. Plumbing maybe $600 for parts. Shower or tub can go in later.
Second pooper: Priceless.
Partner not afraid to do plumbing: Fucking Treasure
