Words cannot describe better than this picture.... |
Everything but the tub is gone |
The new WC |
Now the layout makes sense. We kept the orginial soaker tub - it made us feel like we were five years old again, it was so deep! I kept the colours light and soothing, but still in the warm blue tones. This WC was mainly for the boy's use and beleive it or not was very easy to maintain and keep it looking fresh. The flooring was something brand new at the time - a loose lay vinyl floor, by Tarkett. This was the answer to our dilema with that access hole. The previous owner had a huge bull-ring size ring to lift the piece of flooring to open up the access. With this new flooring, all we had to do was cut the flooring to the size of the access and lift it when needed - no ring or handle of any sort involved. The pattern was such that you barely noticed the seam.
Ergonomic sense...... |
Choosing a pedestal sink to create the feeling of more space made sense - having one with an integrated towel bar was even better. That helped to avoid drips all over the floor while someone was reaching for a towel.
All the storage we needed was added with an Ikea cabinet and a rolling glass cart. The cart could be brought up to the tub for setting your book and or your glass of wine on. Adding a light to the bath area creates a sparkle on the classic subway tiles.
The family room is next on the docket.....stay tuned......
