Bathroom Remodel- White Subway and Carrara Marble
Comments (28)anne7- the double vanity is 64' wide. That was the biggest we could fit in the space we had. It gave us a bit more counter space in between sinks than a standard 60' would have. I wish it had been made with wider drawers though. I modeled it after one I found on pottery barn that had similar inset doors and hardware. You are right, there is no tub:( There just wasn't space. island- the floor tiles are Jeffrey Court iceberg marble polished (90019 They are from the Cap.9- Pietra Opus II series and are 4 x 8. The shower stall is just over 5'. I had the mirrors made at a local frame shop. I had shopped around for white mirrors that I liked and just couldn't find something simple and yet substantial so I had them made. It is just a 20" x 24" beveled mirror with a 2" frame all the way around. We don't have medicine cabinets. I decided to forgo the cabinets because I had extra storage with the double vanity (we used to have only a single) and because I was afraid we would drop things on the marble. We have had more than enough space so far. Paint is Benjamin Moore- Marilyn's Dress. Trim is just a white bathroom paint that we had laying around. Shower bench, threshold, and the tops of the half walls are all white corian. We had the window shutter installed. It is the faux wood with the standard white finish. I had read that real wood may be more prone to warping in a bathroom. Thanks for the kind words. I am going to post some pictures of my kitchen on the kitchen board. We updated it about 2 years ago....See MoreTiny Bathroom Bianco Carrara porcelain tile
Comments (20)crl, Thank you! I debated about the sizes of the tile as well as the color. In such a small room, I didn't want anything too "busy". I just wanted a simple, clean look. Hunzi, Love your newly created word, "marblelain". Our house is old, too. It was built in 1910, but it doesn't have a fourth bedroom to borrow to make a larger bathroom. You are lucky ;-) Post pictures when you redo your bathroom! enduring, Thanks! I loved the paint color enough to keep it, and I think it works with the new tile and the chrome accents. A picture on the wall between the vanity and shower is a good idea. I had a towel bar there, but this time I'm just going to use the one on the shower door and the extra one I have on the inside of the door of the bathroom. I simply can't imagine TWO doors coming into a room this small. So glad you were able to expand. Lotteryticket, Thank you! I like the dark/light contrast, too. The vanity and toilet were in too good of a condition to get rid of. I saved money by keeping them. prbetsi75, I love the niche. It is so handy. Our other bathroom has the 3x6 classic white subway wall tiles as well as 2" hex floor tiles. It is so hard to keep the grout clean!!! Our contractor used a product called Procolor Stain Guard ADMIX for this tile installation. It is supposed to merge with the grout all the way through. This keeps stains, mold, and mildew from getting into the grout and makes cleaning much easier. We shall see. Here is a picture looking down into the shower:...See Morefloor for bathroom with white subway tile: NO black & white
Comments (3)Bill: I do like that blue! Thanks. Perphaps I will consider it for the subway accent. Today, and each day it changes, I am leaning towards grayish hexies....See MoreSubway or square tile for 1937 bathroom?
Comments (1)Square tile would probably be the most appropriate, but since you have the subway shape in the border, you could use that. However, my real concern is that you are going to have four colors of tile: salmon, green, white, and black. (Which is at least one too many IMO)--and there is no relationship between the paired colors from the horizontal to the vertical. I think you will find it more limiting to have four tile colors than you would if it were all salmon and green. I have seen this work in the reverse when the floor was black and white basketweave and there were two wall tiles, but that is a bit different. I can understand not wanting to do the walls in either salmon or the green field tile but if you are going to do white with a border or pencil liner it should probably either be green or salmon--not black....See MoreDeborah Sigg
