Our Master Bath...

It has taken a while, a long while, but our Master Bath is finally done.  I am so excited to have it complete and be able to use it again!  It is clean and simple just as I had hoped.  I am still working on accessories and I feel like I want to add something to the walls, but for all intents and purposes it is complete.

We finally decided to use the wall mounted faucets which I am very happy we did, it is just a little bit different from the norm.  We mounted them just above the back splash and they are great with the vessel sinks from Kraus.

I love the Walker Zanger tile accent, it is just what we needed for a little something special in the shower.

We used soapstone on the counter and bath tub.  Which is so pretty, a little delicate but it is perfection.

The counter is the perfect spot for a few little things like my new vintage vanity mirror from the Pasadena flea market and my new Barr Co. candle.  The cabinet we converted has a lot of storage so I can keep everything tucked away.

I think this is one of my favorite things!!  I love the custom sconces from Cleveland Art.  They are so beautiful the pictures do not even do them justice.  They were the last pieces to be put in and they truly finished the space up.

The shower was really hard to photograph so this is the best way to see it.  We opted for the rain shower head, love it, and a completely glass enclosure.  The remodel was a lot more work than I thought but a great experience, and I am so happy with the results.

Dark Concrete in the bathroom

 

I promise once my bathroom is complete I will not post about baths for a little while!!  They just seem to be jumping out at me lately.  This one is amazing with the double concrete sink and storage.

I love the contrast with the texture of the baskets and the rustic wood mirrors.  

Here is a picture of our progress... why does everything take so very long????

I am in love with the tile and cannot wait to see it grouted and all finished up with the stone tops but that will easily be the end of the week.   Then we still have to paint, trim the windows, install the lights, mirrors and the window coverings.  Wow when I make the list it seems we have barely started.

Simple bath design

So our bath is coming along nicely, I am getting excited to see it all coming together!  I dream of a space like this that is simple clean and very unique, I love the texture of the natural stone and the concrete look of the tub and shower.  The sink is fantastic.  We decided to do the wall mounted fixtures above our vessel sinks, I am keeping my fingers crossed that it all goes well!

The week is coming to an end and I am ready for a little rest and relaxation.

Master Bath Updates

Our Master Bath updates are well under way!  I could not be more excited to get this project completed.  I chose all of the pieces very slowly, which is not normal for me- I was having a tough time making choices.  For the shower we are using Walker Zanger Studio Moderne  Petit Imperial in Jute as the inset with the small matching field tile and trim, I LOVE it!  It looks so amazing!  The sink will be a free standing piece with a limestone top, the kraus vessel sinks, Kholer wall mounted faucets and custom mirrors and lighting. 

This is what the bathroom looked like last week (below).  Which was making me crazy.  Since then we have pulled all the tile as well as the mirror, sinks and cabinets, they were so bad.  I will be giving you an update next week on our progress, which I am excited to say does not included exposed insulation!

vessel sink obession..

 

 

Well what can I say I love the vessel sinks!  I put one in our guest bath and I have been trying to find something that will work for our master.  I think I may even use the same sink with a different faucet because I am having a hard time finding anything that I like better.  I always forget once a project is done just how many little decisions have to be made to make it complete.  It is always so much harder for me to make decisions about my own house and this little bathroom is not any different!!

Have you found a great vessel sink that you are willing to share??

Here is just a little sneak peek at the accent tile from Walker Zanger that I am using in the shower, I love love it! More to come on that next week...

Master bath dreams..

 

So I have been contemplating for months - what am I going to do with my master bath??  With work being so busy I have been putting off  the planning and I had stopped searching but really we were at the point where it could not wait any longer!  So finally a few weeks ago I found a few hours to work on my bathroom, I took a quick trip to Walker Zanger in search of the perfect tile for the shower as it had been eluding me for months!!!  We have an existing marble floor that we put in just a few years ago and my tastes have changed so much since then so it was hard to decide what I wanted.  

Finally I thought I had it all figured out and when I went to order it today it completely destroyed my budget- back to the drawing board I am afraid.  

The picture above is my dream cabinet, but this also is not in my budget and not in my color scheme thanks to the floor.  I will share our progress as it becomes available, which will be very soon considering my hubby is almost done pulling out all of the old tile and the new tile has to be started next week!

unplanned...

 

I love the idea that design would be unplanned.. I guess that then you would call it something else right?  Because Design is really the idea of planning out the space..

Simple grey in the bath

 

This bath is so simple and calming.  I wish my bath could be so easy to manage, but we have all of those real life things that we have to hideaway so more storage is definitely needed.

Sharon and Ozzy at home...

 

I know I was a little amazed too!  

But after reading this post from Cote de Texas all about wallpaper I remembered I had saved these and decided to share them.  I love that paper in the first picture and I am not a wallpaper fan.  It is just so...

What do you think?  Was it what you would expect?

Online design for the bath..

 

This is a little bath refresher that I have been working on for a client and her son.

Very fun and simple and I think the younger peep's will like it too!

Pink and grey in the bathroom

I found this bathroom yesterday on Cote de Texas.. what a perfect addition it would have been to my post yesterday... So pretty in pink!

Guest bath and a bit of My Paris...

These are a couple of my favorite images from my last trip to Paris.. I am so excited to be going back...More about that to come this week!

Now onto business... Here is a peek at my guest bath idea board. I made this last week and it is funny because it has already had some changes. I found the perfect little dresser piece to replace the open bamboo style piece on here while I was at the flea market. I was so amazed to find exactly what I had wanted. Now it just has to be refinished and installed. I am keeping my fingers crossed that my vision is going to work!

What do you think?  This is just a shell really - there are some missing details but when it comes to my house I am a little more design as you go.
