It's underway...I'm thrilled to be joining all of the talented bloggers above!
My 1938 bathroom will be getting an update.
We remodeled ten years ago, updating the original pink and burgundy tile, and fixtures. I
chose travertine, neutral fixtures, and re-purposed a French style cabinet as the vanity, ten
years ago that idea was cutting edge. :) Heavily textured walls, an oversized ornate mirror, traditional sconces, bright gold, my own little Tuscan style, Italian Villa like bathroom....
and I'm over it!
Today my favorite style is a mix of traditional with a modern vibe,
a neutral palette that can easily adapt to my ever changing tastes,
and I love including something unexpected.
Here's the before, check out the hunt scene on that vanity.
Lovely curtains I made...ha!
Nice styling with my Clarisonic and dead fall leaves, too.
I searched long and hard for that matching art.
See the heavy texture on the walls, just paid $$$ to have it covered up!
Actually, the plan has already changed since yesterday.
I love David Hicks La Fiorentina pattern, but it's pricey, so I decided to diy my own stencil
(since it worked out well for me
here) very loooong story short...

So...I've decided stripes are my new favorite, along with the planned Bansuri ikat
valance and roman shade !
The vanity will get a fresh coat of paint.
The unexpected...swing arm sconces.
A rug like this would make me extra happy ~ not happening at $7800 from ABC Home,
but a something similar would work. :)
Gotta run, I've got stripes to paint today!
