kids/guest bathroom- tile tub surround or acrylic
Comments (8)Tile surrounds look so very nice. I really love the look. That said, I think I'm glad we have one-piecers in both bathrooms (one shower-tub combo and one shower only). These aren't new units, the house is 40 years old and they came with the house. One day we'll replace them, but there's no hurry. My daughter's rental has tile in both upstairs bathrooms, one tub-shower combo and one walk-in-and-have-a-stroll shower. We've used both on numerous occasion as she sometimes goes out of town on business and we babysit, or recently she had a new baby and I went to help out. The shower in particular needs all sorts of spot scrubbing to keep the tile and grout clean. My daughter is a bit of a clean freak (didn't get it from me!) and even she has trouble keeping up with shower maintenance. This really made my mind up for me for what we'll do one of these years - solid surface of some sort despite the fact that I love the look of tile....See MoreCompleted guest bathroom! (finally!)
Comments (18)Thanks pharaoh, oh high priest of stunning bathrooms! For both upstairs baths, we ordered white Toto tubs, white Toto Soiree toilets, and the smaller Sonia sinks (as I'd mentioned above). All faucets and hardware will be satin or brushed nickel. For the vanity in our tiny MB, I'm leaning towards cherry with a black stain; either black-black, or black with a hint of dark purple or dark blue undertones, and for the hall bath, I'm considering cherry as well, but with a light reddish-sunset color stain (if such a stain color even exists!). Originally I'd wanted the MB to have cool colors for accents; blues, purples, some greens ("sea colors"), but now I'm thinking more white on white tones, maybe some MOP, so we'll see what inspiration hits me when it comes time to choose tile and paint! For the hall bath I want sunset/hot colors; fiery pinks, reds, oranges and yellows, just not sure if I want to bring those colors in at all with the tile, or stick with whites there, too, and then bring in my colors with the paint, shower curtain, towels, and accessories. Of course, if I go with the whites in the MB, I could scuttle my hot colors in the main bath and put my sea colors there...! Totally up in the air re: flooring material, so colors for those haven't even been on the radar yet. Might go with wood, or stone, or ?????...See MoreWhat shower curtain goes with this bathroom? (and paint color?)
Comments (14)Thanks! I forgot about Anthropologie--I like the vibe with most of their stuff (not so sure DH is as "down" with it)...went to one in the city and LOVED it... (the sale prices weren't too bad...but I do remember a bit of sticker-shock with some things...ouch!) And I do like the banded shower curtains...but I don't have a Restoration Hardware near me and they have SO many colors...I wouldn't know which one to pick. There's one at Macy's called the Hotel Color Block--maybe that one? But I kind of wish I could get chocolate brown or tan mixed in with the accent color so it's all pulled together. I really want to introduce some color into the palatte, I guess. And the guest room right across the hall is a cheery bright yellow, that I just adore...and think it would look weird to have a bland tan/beige right across the hall. It's a super bright bathroom with a full-size south-facing window...so I kind of want bright, clean and cheery. Thanks for the help everyone! -sarah...See MorePlease show me your green bathroom/shower curtain
Comments (9)I know this isn't what you have in mind for a guest bath, but this is my sons bathroom with a brighter green wall color (Glidden Laurel Wreath.) This shower curtain came from the previous home and wasn't the right green color for the walls. It's there I promise and looks better in person! lol I had a heck of a time finding something to match the wall color, and finally found the perfect green. However, once the curtain was hung, you cannot see the green very well....See Moreaprilneverends
