      Smart bathroom!
      Really love the lights you have chosen too.
      Did you do the work yourself?
      I like how the colours in the painting is echoed by the colours in the plant holder.
      Thank you for sharing :thumbsup:

      Yes, We did the work ourselves. Picked every item and installed it all. Had to reinforce below from the basement as the new tub is heavier than the old, so he has to re grout some area that split in the weight testing area. And that was done, so he will just re grout that one area.
      Finally chose a black and white bathroom, after considering all the other colors I have in the rest of the house, and everyone and their brother seems to have a light brown bathroom and because it is a small bathroom. With the black and white I can use any color pop also.
      Yes, love those little crystal globes, makes like a spa look. Yesterday filled up that tree in the corner with stuff, glad I got it. Today take my first shower in the room.

        By the way the painting is really a old silk
        Embroidered cloth we found at an auction house, I then had it framed, it hung in my office at work for years. And the planter is called a Fernner, it is Nippon paste type dating back to 1910 also got that at a auction last July knowing I would want it positioned there.

          You are a talented pair indeed - I'm not very practical myself, so I do admire people who are.

          Hope you enjoyed that first shower - and you are so right, with black and white you can change accent colours to suit your mood/the season.

          Thanks much. I bought some solid black towels also. And have seen some rich purple I am considering to throw in too.
