[Weekly thread] How is everyone doing with their home improvements?

I removed my old white grease-laden range hood and replaced with a stainless steel one. My range is in the middle of my home, so unfortunately I haven't been able to vent it outdoors, but the hood is convertible for when I decide to adventure a little more.
Old range hood was hard wired through a hole in the wall, no box obviously. Put a box in the cabinets above for the new hood. My cabinets are not designed to accept a range hood apparently either, so it made it all the more interesting.
Credit to my 7 year old daughter, who helped me install it, couldn't have done it without her.

Redoing a closet. Seems easiest just to rip out the non-functional layout and replace with an easy Ikea setup.

I need to go set up the vanity and connect the plumbing in the powder room. I should just get up right now and get into it. Anytime now. At least dry fit it. That wouldn't take much time. If someone said, hey let's go work on this, I'd hop up. I want to see the finished room very much. Ok, maybe this time...3, 2, 1...

I'm refinishing my bathroom, got the ceiling drywall put up and taped. I was hoping to get someone in to do the waterproofing/tile for the shower, he'd told me he would start in December, haven't heard from him since.
I can't finish the ceiling until the shower waterproofing is done, so I guess I'm tackling that next. Annoying when contractors flake like that, but I'm capable, time to move on without him

Actually selling the house very soon because home improvement projects are costing too much and taking too much time. So I guess they are not going well. Haha

Soon to work on my kitchen backsplash as part of a total reno. Have the "layering" figured out for height and need to get an idea of where to start the pattern horizontally so it looks nice against edges and windows and stuff

I have a framed attic space I'm finishing into a bedroom/office. There's a gas line of copper pipe that runs right across the opening into what would be the obvious closet. Needs to be shifted three feet back to the other side of the studs.
I don't mess with gas so wanted to get someone licensed to do it. One ghosted his appointment. Another asked for $150 to even show up to give a quote. The one quote I have says $2500-3500. Three others haven't picked up or returned calls. I've worked copper pipe before. This would take me an hour, tops. Maybe $50 materials. I guess I'll go without a closet here.
Same story for adding a window. $8000 initial estimate from the one person willing to show up. Guess the existing window is good enough for me now.
Everything else I'm doing myself and having a good time with it.
