progress report....all done for now!!

bathroom at start of work!!





well the bathroom is practically complete.... yay !!!

all that is left to do now is to grout the tiles ( you know it would have been so much easier buying lino!!) and perhaps put up a couple of shelves above the toilet..
i did have a dresser top lined up for this .. but it was just to big and looked silly!!
Ive painted the side of the bath in hot pink but it needs another coat really and the feet need painting white now as well...

it is i have to admit.. a tad overly floral.. as i was putting the paper up i was getting more and more floral'd out.. until the thought of ever seeing Paris rose wallpaper again made me feel a little but nauseous.. but that was because it was about 1.30am and i just wanted to get it finished!!





























so all that is left to do now is open a nice sparkly rose get a good book and run a deep bath..!!!

  4. I love the bathroom, can't be too floral for me I think it looks lovely. I haven't had a bath for years........I'm a shower girl but with a bath like that I would surely change my mind.
