Said rationale went something like this:
Let’s keep this project simple. The kitchen remodel was detailed, time consuming, and intense, so let’s keep the bathroom remodel simple.
That includes time as well as expense.
Let’s replace the window though, from an old energy leaky one, to a new energy efficient one.
Window still needs to be small to maintain bathroom privacy.
Old window measures 29 by 32 inches.
Hmm, no one around here carries windows that size.
Special order? Way too expensive.
Oh look, Lowes sells octagonal windows closer to the right size. Hmmm.
Plain octagonal windows reasonable, fancy octagonal windows expensive. One of those plain ones is a definite possibility.
A couple days later….
I’m bored. Let’s look online for octagonal windows.
Wow. Look at these pretty stained glass ones on Ebay. They’re less than half the price for something similar at Lowes. And they don’t cost too much more than Lowes’ plain octagonal windows.
Let’s see, 24×24 inches. Same size as the ones at Lowes and perfect for a bathroom.
Being stained glass, they let in light be can’t be seen through from outside. Good for privacy.
That means I won’t have to worry about a curtain or window blind. I need to subtract that from the cost.
Plus, Dan loves stained glass.
“Dan, what do you think?”
“Get it.”
And there you have it.
