![]() Not to mention that we were just sick about it. Unbelievably, neither of us got a scratch on us, but the clean up of this mess was a long and tedious process. After it was installed, Frank and I were actually in the bathroom admiring how good it looked when we both watched what seemed like a bad slow motion movie of it falling down all around us. We decided that a large mirror across the entire vanity would brighten up the room and make it look even larger than it was. One of the last things we needed to do was to install the mirror. We added wood to the ceiling tray to match what we did in the bedroom, and once I made the decision on which light fixture to get, it was time to put it all together. Sometimes you just have to save up and pay for exactly what you want. I found the vanity in the Restoration Hardware catalog and didn’t want to pay that price, so I searched for something similar for several months, but couldn’t find anything else that compared and in the end, had to bite the bullet and order it. ![]() The hardest choices for the bathroom was the vanity and light fixture. We went with large black tile with dark gray grout laid in a subway pattern for the floors. I am in love with the white tile that we chose for the shower and I’m really happy with the way it was installed up and down instead of in a subway pattern. After changing the walls to white, the tile choices came easily. Ultimately, I did a 180 and went with white walls, and it took three coats of white to completely cover the black. I had collected pics of bathrooms that I liked and originally thought I wanted the walls to be black like the bedroom, but once they were painted black, I didn’t like it. The tub ended up being the perfect size and the most comfortable I have ever been in. I ended up selecting a stand alone tub from It is always a gamble ordering from a website, especially something so big and costly, but this time it worked out great. Plus, I had in mind that the grandbabies might like to play in a tub. ![]() We both like a good size shower, and even though I don’t get in a tub often, there are times, when I want a good long soak in a bubble bath. I wanted each of us to have enough space to store all of our toiletries and not be in each others space when getting ready. Although it was a good size, it only had one sink and not enough storage for us. Frank and I had been sharing the bathroom for the last couple of years, that would become the guest bath once this one was complete. It was important to me when beginning the process of designing the bathroom, that it flowed well with our master bedroom and that it had enough storage. Today, I am sharing our master bathroom design.
