Master Bath

 Moving along… the master bathroom is unpacked and decorated with things from our previous house…..  I’m not showing you the toilet,   (it’s now stuck in that little cubby hole on the left next to the shower)    because it’s just a toilet and I haven’t found the right “stuff” to put over it or on it or even near it besides the toilet paper, and that’s just tacky…SO..

The cabinet to the left  in the picture below and the vanity cabinet under the mirrors were made by a local man with a great talent for making furniture out of old barn wood and material taken from houses, hotels, barns, etc.   His son  works mostly with new cabinetry, but Art adds the whimsy with layers of paint, old beadboard, knobs, hardware, etc…   For those of you who are local, you will recognize his pieces in my shop. You could say his furniture is “green”, or eco-friendly because it is recycled material.
It’s hard to tell from these photos, but there are several layers of paint, several colors intertwined.. a green/grey moss color as well as a deep maroon,  more obvious in person.  The cabinet doors are old windows.
We live about five miles from the shoreline, but one of my great loves is the seashore. I always do some decorating with shells, even in this old farm house.   Someday if I find just the right really cheap fixer upper beach cottage….
I found this glass bowl at Homegoods… and even though I’m practically chanting “less is more” lately….  I couldn’t walk away from it,  it was just $12!
Shower with pebbles… it’s like your feet are getting a massage every morning….

  7. I love, love, love, the pebble shower floor. We have it in the rental we're staying in and you're right! It's a massage for your feet every day. Your house looks amazing. I wish you lived nearby so you could help me out with mine. I love everything you do over there. That bowl from Home Goods by the way; I can see why you couldn't leave it behind.

  8. Ooooh-la-la…so elegant! What a gorgeous bathroom! LOVE the color palette. I need to get to Home Goods one of these days soon! It's the simple little things we find (even better when on sale) that makes us all so happy, eh?

  9. Really like the gray double mirrors and the vanity/sink. The mirrors set the mood for the whole room. Nice!

  10. I love the look, but I'll bet I could hurt myself getting in and out of that tub, without even trying. (and I can't imagine trying to clean it)

  12. Okay, you've done it … I'm officially jealous. Your Old House, new insides (with character) and a master bath like THIS. Karen, my dear, you are torturing me.

    Love the cabinet! The color is beautiful.
