Too hot for heated floors

It's hot again, though with the shorter days, the nights have been lovely and cool. It's like a nicer way to have heat.

And speaking of heat, the wire for the heated master bath floor was installed about a week ago. M's mom came over as "helper" for the day (she loves to get home construction assignments, and has been a huge help) and after some discussion about how to lay the wire so as to use it all, not lay it in areas where it's unnecessary (like under the vanity cabinets), and how not to run out, they gave it a go. Apparently, you're not supposed to cut this stuff.

M's Mom insisted the photo show her spool placement

Note the paint that's not finished in the photo above (final color is pale blue. Taupe was primer). See previous post.

oooh. You can see the pretty door and window trim

M is so good at this stuff--the layout was perfect: it covered all, didn't need to be cut, and was a job well done. Obviously, she has good knees! And what a great helper!

Now on those cold winter mornings, our toes will be toasty under the tile!
