Door Handles

Found some decent door handles at Home Depot.  They were about $35 each, a lot cheaper than the comparable ones I was looking at which are about $80-$100 each.  Not quite botique, but good enough given the price.  Here are the old ones:

and the new:
I haven't replaced the striker plate yet, as it's not a simple fit, but that will happen soon.  I'm also replacing the door hinges with brushed metal hinges.  I may or may not paint the doors, haven't decided yet.  Probably will paint them.

Craigslist Find

I'm still using a lot of old Ikea Expedit stuff for storage.  It works, and is flexible, but not fancy.  Been on the lookout for something better.  Ran across this on CL for only $300, and got them to deliver. Right now it's just staged in the open area of the basement.  I should be able to finish the framing and drywall in the old theater, and I'll move these in there.

Basement Bathroom Progress

 Just for reference, here is the original, claustrophobic, non-code-compliant basement bathroom. And here is progress on the much larger bathroom, even though to overall footprint is the same size. The shower has been expanded to fill the entire width, and the ceiling raised in the shower area.  The original was a generic shower stall, and was very dark and cramped.  This will be much brighter and while the dimensions are small, won't feel nearly as cramped.
