The idea was to have a Maroccan style
outdoor bathroom...
complete with tadelakt plastering.....
Bronc plastered the baths , added a green pigment to the cement and it came out better than we could have asked for.
a Friend trimmed her bamboo and after a few trips, we had enough bamboo to make the surrounding wall. Bronc and Claude worked like demons!
Claude soldered the copper pipes for an old , steampunkt/industrial look
(Laura, I am sure this is right up your alley! )
A great view of the old Oregon timber floorboards. They came from the
old BA town hall , circa 1879 and are about to be brought back to their original glory. Town Hall story here.....
Martina was our willing worker (click on the link here to learn about wwoofers) in August and she was soo enthusiastic and willing to try her hand at every task. She grabbed the sander, asked for instructions, donned her protective gear and got stuck into it!
Claude and Bronc were happy to have help!
I had to get stuck into it as well.....
Claude made the bathroom fittings - towel rails, toilet roll holder...using copper pipe and soldering it all together....
In September our willing worker was Janet, all the way from Holland. She was just amazing!
Here she helped to make the bathroom garden.
a Beautiful pic - here you can see the bamboo walls made by Claude and Bronc, the indoor garden and and a piece of the green tinted bathroom plastering..
Note the beautiful Oregon grained floorboards being brought back to life.
Thanx to all the helping hands that made this come true.
Bronc, Martina, Janet - Claude and I really appreciate your help.
