Comments on: Extreme Makeover: Bathroom Edition http://craftmuffin.com/archives/2004/extreme-makeover-bathroom-edition/ a place to cheer, cry, whine, ponder, and otherwise ramble on about my current craft projects Fri, 18 May 2012 21:28:15 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.0 by: Heidi http://craftmuffin.com/archives/2004/extreme-makeover-bathroom-edition/#comment-147 Tue, 30 Nov 1999 00:00:00 +0000 http://craftmuffin.com/archives/2004/extreme-makeover-bathroom-edition/#comment-147 My little brother used to run a business (in Michigan) that recycled construction materials, including demolition and remodeling. You could see if anyone's doing that near you. It might mean six or eight trips to different places, one for drywall, one for tile, etc., and of course the extra work to sort things. Old drywall and roofing get turned into street pavement! And copper wire is really valuable. You can recycle practically anything if you're resourceful--but it takes time. Could you rent a trailer you can fill up and haul to the dump instead? That's how my brother did it, though he owned about 40 of them. Of course you need a towing setup on your car. Anyway, good job on taking the initiative to remodel. Please show us some more progress pics!

I'm dreading the day when we finally tackle our scary bathroom. Very brave indeed. I’m dreading the day when we finally tackle our scary bathroom.
