When we finished our huge basement renovation, we took a much needed break from anything that would require a trip to the hardware store. But we slowly got over it and finished the dining room and studio. We’re now unexpectedly at full steam ahead with our bungalow redecorating with our copper and white kitchen slowly shaping up, and after over a year of dealing with the hideous banana split colour, our living room is finally getting painted in the next couple weeks. All that we’ll have left is the hallway, bedroom, and bathroom.
UGLY PICTURE ALERT

Ohh my much loathed bathroom. See, our bathroom is so tiny it doesn’t even warrant square footage on the floor plan. One day we plan to knock out a few walls and do a huge reno to the main floor (can’t wait) but for now, I’m going to dream about these beautiful bathrooms.
These two bathrooms are my inspiration for our mini bathroom makeover and our future bathroom overhaul, and if I lived in the UK like many of you lucky folk I’d be hunting down items over here. Care to come dream with me?

I’m obsessed with two styles of bathroom right now, and one of them includes lots of gold/brass touches. Yes there is a chance that in 10-20 years our hypothetical children with be thinking “god mom WHAT were you thinking!?”, but right now I just love the touch of regality gold and brass bring to a room. It can be tricky finding accessories in gold, but thankfully my friend spray paint is always by my side.
Here are some items to go along with the above image, including ones I would add to complete the look.

1 . Round Mirror / 2. Pedestal Sink / 3. Shelf / 4. Towel Rack / 5. Bath Faucet
6. Traditional Free Standing Bath

Now this bathroom I have been obsessed with for years. Or at least since I first pinned it about a year or two ago. I just love the mix of cold ceramic tile with soft wood – especially the slatted wood on the shower floor! It gives the space a completely calming feel, making the bathroom a place you want to stay in, unlike mine which is a space you spend as little time in as humanly possible. Wood and white tile is the other bathroom look I’m completely obsessed with. Maybe I’ll mix wood, white and gold for our bathroom for the ultimate combo….

1. Mirror / 2. Sink Faucet / 3. Vanity & Basin / 4. Shower Head / 5. Storage Unit
6. Heated Towel Rack / 7. Tub Panel
