The most important finishing touch was installing the mirrors, and I am so proud of us on this task. The original bathroom had a huge mirror, about 36" tall by 60" long. Instead of getting rid of it, we took it to the local glass service and had it cut down and polished to two mirrors 36" tall by 24" wide. This involved two cuts and polishing the edges. The total cost was $10. I can't imagine what we would have paid for two brand new mirrors that size. Not only did we save lots of dollars, we also kept a good usable product from going to the landfill. Yea!
Here is the vanity with the newly installed mirrors:
As for the morning routine, mine will get adjusted a bit, but in all it was a spectacular morning. That new shower made it much easier to get out of my warm bed this morning and head off to work. I guess the 2-hour delay due to snowy/icy roads helped a little, too.

Congratulations on finishing the bathroom. It looks beautiful!
Very nice! Done with class & taste! Question: Can't exactly tell from picture... does the sideboard rest fully against the back wall? If so, how did you accommodate legs hitting baseboards or out-of-plumb wall?
Thank you both for the nice compliments and for reading our blog. Bungalow Monster - the back of the sideboard is about 1 inch away from the wall. The back legs touch the shoe moulding, but there is a gap at the top because of the shoe and baseboard. I actually like it that way. It really feels like a real piece of furniture.

Looks really good though - very spa like and high-end.
