A client wanted an update from the pink. The bathroom is now much more sophisticated, and wow at the difference a new mirror can make! Out with the old and in with the new!

Comments (33)Hey, I know this is an older post, but were you worried about the lack of an access panel for the shower? I'm curious what your plumber and/or contractor said about this. Working on our bathroom now (plumbing on exterior wall), and trying to figure the best way to handle this. Thanks!...See MoreDD2's MCM Master Bath - Before & After
Comments (25)That looks so good. I was squinting and counting the 4" tiles in the original shower and came to the conclusion it was 28" x 28" -- same as the one in my ca. 1954 master bath. Mine also has a frosted glass door, which completes the entombment vibe. I can't wait to redo the bathroom, and hope it turns out half as well as your DD's....See MoreMaster Bath: Before & After
Comments (10)This came out great! The grey and white were good color choices for brighten up this area. Also the walk in shower is very popular with the bench seat in it. The lighting fixture is very nice as well and brings in a lot of good light....See MoreMaster Bath - Before and After
Comments (14)I'm sorry everyone - I'm not seeing how to reply to each comment individually. So here's an update on a few items/questions asked: - Shower Size: 5' X 5'. What a change from that little 40" wide shower. We are loving the space so much. I thought I might have allocated too much space - but I'm glad I did! Moving the toilet to the old tub area is how I got all the extra room for the new shower. - Shower Glass Panel - no door: The shower is zero entry with only a 34" glass panel - no door. I didn't want anything to obstruct the view of that beautiful tile. The glass panel just fades away and it looks like the shower doesn't have any separation. The opening is just approx. 25" and water DOES NOT splashes out. I squeezee the bottom area of the glass panel at the end of each shower. Everyone tried to talk me into a full panel/door but I didn't agree. However, I did agree to have the glass panel installed in a manner that I could add a header later for a door in case they turned out to be right. But we are very with our decision to only have the panel. - I'll post an image of the toilet room and the wall opposite the shower fixture wall so you can see the niche. I went big on that too. :-)...See More

6 years agoHuge improvement! Well done! I probably shouldn't even post this, but perhaps this suggestion will help others, so here goes.
While I like the look of shower curtain hooks with nice detailing like the new ones have, I've never had much luck with them functioning well, and it looks like yours may have that problem as well. I find they seem to come off the rod too easily, so one or two hooks are always dangling. It appears that in the middle that's happening there in your photo. I don't mean this as a criticism, but I find that sometimes my decorative choices just have to take a back seat to what will actually look good in the long haul--that is, I want any changes to be ones that will look good day in and day out, so I use ball bearing type closed shower curtain rings. And cute towels layered this way are great, but will I keep them that way every day? Unlikely for me, and I'm about as OCD as you can get. Judging from the before photo, the client isn't even slightly OCD. So they may find it will look better long run to install a towel ring that's open like the one I'm posting for the hand towel on the wall to the right of the sink. Then move that towel bar above the toilet to below the current one by the shower making them double decker somewhat, and raise that existing one up so you can have enough room to actually hang a towel on it without touching the lower bar. This is assuming you've got touch-up paint and spackle to fix the holes. :-)
We've done this so I know it works. It will look great the first day you hang up nicely folded fresh towels, and then it'll still look good enough on day 2 when you may just have a spread out bath towel on the bar. It appears that the bar above the toilet wasn't being used in the before photo, likely because that's an awkward place for it, and possibly was placed there by the builder. Just a suggestion... I'm all for making it easy for spaces to look good. Moen Ashville Towel Ring
