Mixing Bathroom Light Fixtures with Bathroom Fixtures?
Comments (5)no, it wouldn't I mixed finishes in all my baths..looks pretty natural. I don't even think people notice..they just see bigger picture. Don't mix brushed nickel and polished nickel, or chrome and nickel, these are too close to mix successfuly. ORB is different enough from brushed nickel, and also gives that very neutral feel, it being dark..you should be fine. but you can also cross post your question in Home Decorating forum..there's usually where questions about colors etc. go. Or Bathrooms one..but Home Decorating has more traffic..you 'll get more responces...See MoreCan we get away with 40 watts above our vanity mirrors?
Comments (10)Yes, use LED bulbs if the fixture calls for an Edison base, but be sure to get them in a different style than the very large kind. You can now get LED bulbs even in candelabra size. Make sure the bulbs you get fit into your fixture’s shades. Any good lighting store will be able to help you. You will want to get bulbs with the Kelvin range (color) of somewhere around 3000 to 4000 K. Don’t worry about the price too much. I have LED bulbs I have not changed in 10 years. LEDs tend to dim as they age, so we might start replacing them soon....See MoreMixing styles in bathroom
Comments (7)Actually the contact did not mention anything. More or less closing date and sales price. Very small builder. We were told everything was already selected. Mistake on our part, but because we were told everything was selected, we did not ask for allowances. Only after we signed were we told to visit the granite/quartz place, pick out carpet, etc. However, fixtures , no. The home was unroof, painted, and hardwoods down (through we got to pick stain). Another family was building it and they decided to purchase a spec home up the street in the same neighborhood. We found out, after the fact, that the builder had purchased items when covid was getting bad and was putting them in the house. However, we had no idea the fixures would be different styles in the same bathroom. Home construction is solid and other products like appliances are very nice. Thanks for the help!...See MoreOne hallway bathroom or two small private bathrooms
Comments (12)If they would each be the size of the standard 5x7 bath that used to serve as the only full bath in the house, and it has no negative affect on your budget to have another or negative effect on the bedroom size it would be fine to have two individual baths. If they would end up being cramped or shrinking the bedroom, maybe not. It's not so much that smaller bathrooms are that much more difficult to use, it's that they are a pain to clean. You could also do one ensuite and one hall access...and by the time the older one leaves the younger could move into that bedroom. I would not do a single Jack and Jill or the two sink thing. There are differing parenting styles too, and I know some parents more or less stay out of their teenage kids rooms, so it's possible that ensuite bathrooms in that situation would get really dirty. I once stayed overnight in a guest room last minute that was jack and jill with a kid's bedroom, (kid home) and they had me use the ensuite bathroom in a different kid's bedroom who was gone over that night or two. And the ensuite bathroom was not exactly filthy, but it was not clean or taken care of by a long shot. And they didn't know because they stayed out of their kid's rooms....See MoreLaura Mac
