~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Now.....On to the decoratin'!!!!

This is my master bathroom......

It used to look like this.....

And this.....

And this.....

So I changed it!!!!!!

EVERYTHING was wrong with it.....

the toilet was next to the vanity, so the vanity wasn't very long.

I moved the toilet across the room to next to the door, giving me space for a 6 foot cabinet!!!!!

 I changed the tub to a large shower stall

 that took up less floor space than the tub that I would barley use.

Tubs aren't so easy to get in and out of, 

and I am planning for my future decrepitude......

Since the shower takes up less room, I was able to add a linen closet!!!!

Yippee!!!!

More storage!!!!!

In the pictures above....that's the same corner of the room....

I drew up drawings for the vanity I wanted 
and had it made in a local cabinetry shop called Kickspace. 
They're the same company that made my kitchen cabinets.....
and my mom and dad's kitchen cabinets.....
and lots of other stuff for me over the years......

I used the wallpaper from Brunschwig & Fils that matched the fabric in my bedroom.
The countertop is Carrara marble,
as are the small hexagonal tiles on the floor.

Here's the old view and new view side by side....

I took this picture at sundown, 'cuz I forgot to take this shot, so it's yellow from the lights.....

I brought the medicine cabinet with me from my home in Watertown.
It was one I had designed and had custom made using a Venetian mirror. 

Here it is in my previous home....

I just couldn't leave it behind.

You can see that I took the little wall sconce too.

It was a gift from a friend.

I only had one.

ebay to the rescue!!!!!

I found a similar one! I was so excited to have created 

A PAIR!!!

Then the wallpaper guy broke one......

oy!

oy!

oy!

I had to find two more and combine the pieces to create another one.....

I love them 'cuz they're similar but different....

The one on the right is the one I created out of two different lamps.....

The one on the left is the one the wallpaper guy put up with that really pretty plastic washer.......

oy oy oy oy

And of course, I had some more lampshades made to match my bedroom.

Another reason I love these lights is because they are more of the same glass vibe as my vanity lamps.....

I really love my toilet seat.

I really need to get a life......

It's from Water Works.

It cost a lot of moulah....

I have really weird priorities.....

So, anyway.....

link up below if you have any questions, and you are brave enough to deal with my answers.

Latah, Gatah
