Definatly- I am not all that handy but have done it myself twice now

Sorta late before pic:
After:
I tiled with all Travertine in the 1st and normal 1" tiles on the shower wall on the other with travertine floors. The hardest part of the two projects was getting the drain to line up with then new tub because the new tub was wider (and much taller) than the original tub. That is on the 1st set of pics which was actually the 2nd one I completed.
I learned after doing the 1st one (2nd set of pics) not to use 1" tiles because they are a pain to grout and keep clean and also not to use a steel tub because it is too hard to move around. The venetian plastering was also a pain in the ass but I did love the hickory wood in that bathroom.
EDIT: If you notice I love the curved shower rod they use in the Venetian Hotel Chain! They are cheaper at Bed Bath & Beyond.
