    Chic bathrooms

    Hubby and I will be giving our master bath a little refresh next month.  Nothing major just re-caulking, painting, a new pendant, and new hardware for the vanity. I still thought it would be fun to find some chic bathroom eye candy for motivation and any potential last minute ideas.

    1. Go Green with Appliance and Materials

    We all have to do our part for the environment so if you are swapping out your fixtures like the toilet or sink you should get units that are more environmentally sustainable. The costs of these units may be slightly more than their conventional counterparts but you will save water and resources over the long-term.

    1. Update the Grout and Caulking

    The grout and caulking inside your bathroom are the first things that show signs of aging so you should consider replacing it with new grout and caulking. This simple step can really enhance the look and feel of your bathroom. This is also one of the most economical projects you can perform without having to hire a professional.

    1. Replacing the Tile in Your Bathroom

    A great way to really enhance the look of your bathroom is to install new tiles. This project is not something you should attempt on your own. If the tile is not installed properly it could lead to water seeping into the flooring which leads to huge problems. In this type of situation you should reach out to contractors that specialize in this type of renovation work. When screening the contractors you should check out their past work to make sure they are capable before you make the decision to hire them.

    1. Paint the Entire Bathroom

    One of the best ways to revamp the look and feel of your property is by painting the bathroom. The paint needs to be durable to handle the changes in temperature whenever you take a hot shower. Since there is a large amount of humidity generated, the paint needs to be water/humidity resistant for optimum results. You will need to make sure the paint properly dries before you take a shower or it could smear. Plan the painting around a day when the entire family is out so there is little to no demand for the shower.

    1. Use a Bathtub Insert

    Instead of spending a large sum of cash purchasing a new bathtub which you will require extensive renovations to make room for it you could invest in a bathtub insert. With these inserts the new tub is placed directly over the existing one. This new tub fits seamlessly with your existing one so there is no need for added renovation work. The addition of the new bathtub is a renovation job that is relatively low cost but really enhances the appearance of the bathroom.

    By following this outline our bathroom will look great while at the same time saving some money in the process. The sooner you begin these bathroom renovations the happier you will be so start doing your review work now.

    Summer Bathrooms: Beautiful rooms to retreat from the heat

    Refresh in a bathroom that’s pretty and ready for summer!

    Sometimes the only way to restore yourself from the summer heat is a nice cool shower! So make sure your bathroom this summer is outfitted to be your own personal oasis.

     Lighter textiles, like sheer drapes and turkish towels, are more suited for the summer heat and humidity.

    I love this crisp and slightly Indian style bathroom.

     If you’re lucky enough to have windows in your bathroom (I don’t), keep humidity at bay by opening them or keeping the shades up.

    Florals are back, and what better and unexpected room to use them than in the bath?

  • Stunning Walk In Showers

    Stunning Walk In Showers

    The debate is always the same, walk in shower, tub, or a combined. For a family with kids, one bathroom with a tub is a must have but what if there is already a bathroom with a tub. What would you choose for your master bathroom?
    For smaller master baths if you want a tub, you might need to consider a combined or just decide to use the kids tub when needed and create a gorgeous walk-in for the master!
    Not all walk-in showers have to be large to be stunning! I love the bench seat added into this one.

    If you have the space, get the best of both worlds!
