Our shower tile work is done! And we love it. Now, before any of you ask why we put a hole in our shower, that’s not a hole. It’s a “Shower Niche” and it’s a shallow shelf where you put your shampoo bottles and soap. The niche back tiles are a light blue/gray glass tile and we repeat, that isn’t a hole to some other room or dimension. Mom made the very grave mistake of showing this same photo to three coworkers yesterday and every single one of them asked why we put a hole in our shower wall. Additionally, every single one of those three had never heard of anything called a shower niche in their lives, adding, “We just put our shampoo bottles on the floor. Why, again, did you put a hole in your shower wall?”

Needless to say, Mom won’t be sharing anymore photos at work. She doesn’t think she’ll tell anyone she used to thumb through, and drool over, home design magazines at the local grocery stores, either. Is a shower niche such an odd thing? Or did we watch too many HGTV home shows back when we could afford cable?

Anyhoo, we like this and Mom said it’s worth all the overtime she’s put in over the summer. In fact, the cost so far hasn’t been that much more than had we simply chosen to replace the acrylic shower surround. Now, it’s the glass shower doors that might do us in. We’ll have to wait a while longer for those.
