bathrooms

it's friday...you know what that means...kelly's tour of homes. it's bathrooms this week.

this is our master bath. when we moved in it was painted a pinky-peachy beige that clashed with everything. chris painted it a really nice cream and we like it much better. we've got a white-cream-beige-taupe thing going on with dark brown accents.


i've had those pictures forever and want to change that up, but don't know what to do yet. we also used to put the towels we use over the side of the bathtub, but i got tired of that and now we just hang them on the towel rack. not too pretty, but useful!

this view is standing in my closet and looking out.



this shower...i could write a very long un-interesting book on the problems we've had with it. we've lived here not even 2 years and it has been rebuilt for us 3 times (with the previous owners i think it was redone once) anyway, this is the latest version and this tile seems to blend with the rest of the bathroom. (just to clarify--this was not done for cosmetic purposes, but because of water leaks)


doesn't that tub look inviting? i think i've only taken a bath once, maybe twice. i'm just not a bath person, but i'm going to try to become one. i'm going to get a pretty basket, fill it with bath stuff and put it on the edge of the tub. maybe that will make me want to take a bath!


here's the water closet. chris repainted this too. i love the chocolate brown color!


this is the half bath downstairs. it's a deep maroon-red color that doesn't really go with anything else. i had originally wanted to repaint it a chocolate brown too, but now i'm thinking a pretty green would be good. we'll see about that. for now this is it.





this is the entry to mckinlee's bathroom. i love her bathroom--it always looks so cheerful!






to the right of the shower is a another vanity. it's a jack and jill bathroom, but the room it's attached to is a junk room at the moment (until we decide what to do with it!) so i won't show that to you!


here's the guest bathroom








i bought all these little metal buckets at target and i use them for everything. this one sits on the edge of the tub filled with shells.


the other one sits on the counter filled with toiletries for guests. i'm always so excited when i see that guests actually use the stuff in there!



this is the other half of the jack and jill bath of the guest room. it doesn't really go with anything and we keep an ironing board on the door, so we want to do something with this sometime too!



thanks for looking at our bathrooms!
