Shower - Then and Now

We have had some shower issues in the master bath.  We built our house two and half years ago and we have had a warranty issue with our shower that has taken the builder forever to get around to fixing.

When they finally got around to tearing out the part of the shower that needed repairing, we found a water leak.
Water Damage
We now believe that the water leak was from the faulty installation of the shower.  Of course, the tile we used is no longer available, so they had to tear out the entire shower and I had to go pick out new tile.  This whole process has been going on for almost a month.  A MONTH that I haven't been able to use my shower.  I have become very good at washing my hair in the bath tub.  I am very thankful to have a large garden tub with the perfect faucet for washing hair. 

Picking out new tile is difficult for me.  There are so many choices available!  I do not have a natural ability to decorate so I need to see something and copy it.  I finally settled on the Rialto Beige collection from Lowes.  I love the bronze inserts in the border tiles.

Now we wait on the tiles to be grouted (I hope I picked the right color grout!) and then for the shower doors to be replaced.  I am hoping that by the end of the week, I will have my shower back!
