My Future Master Bath

It's Monday, so it must be time for a house update. I am posting the updates whenever I have something to share....and it happens to be Monday...I'm not committing to a schedule.

I spent the weekend obsessing over sconces. I will be having four sconces flanking the two mirrors in my future master bath.

I know two of the images only have 3 sconces...it's late and I'm tired. I've been looking for a prom dress in-between all of this.

I find the entire subject of a master bath, an interesting one. It is a place for luxury, for sure, but who will actually see it? Other than us? Reminding myself of this, while I shop, helps me keep things in perspective. There will definitely be some splurges in here, but also some cost saving items, too.

Case in point....reasonably priced sconces.

I decided to go with number 3. Hopefully, by the time it arrives, I will have more progress. Here's how the bathroom looks today.

Eight weeks until move in.....ready or not!

Have You Seen My Powder Room?

Thank you so much for your lovely comments and emails about my new (to me) house. I am meeting with the architect this week. My first request is a powder room. There isn't one.

The home has two full baths.....and that's it. It would be great to carve out a little area for a small powder room that my guests could use.

I am staying within the existing footprint of the home. It's the old story, I will need to give up space from one area to gain it in another.

I think a lot can be done with such a little space. Do you have a tiny powder room?

Silver in the Bath

Happy Monday! In-between all of my holiday clicking, I have been planning away for my future home renovations. I am definitely feeling the love for silver in the bathrooms.

Fabulous or Frivolous Plaid Tile?

Were you in the path of the snowstorm this weekend? My kids measured us at 5+ inches. It was probably 6, but nobody wanted to go outside and check until after some of the melting had begun.

In-between binge watching on the iPad, Holiday baking, and gift wrapping....I found myself falling in love with the plaid mosaic tile floor.

And then I came across this plaid backsplash.... loving this, too.

Of course I immediately decided that this was too impractical for me. I am sure that I would grow tired of it long before it would wear out. What do you think?

Fabulous or frivolous?
