Turning our Attention to: The Master Bath

So as the Laundry has us in a bit of a decision limbo (do the cabinets? not do the cabinets? What would we even put in the cabinets?) it's off on another tangent!  (I excel at tangents, ask anyone).

Yesterday I even succeeded at getting Craig on this tangent.  And that, my friends, is the prerequisite to being able to start another project before I finish the current one!

HA!

So our Master bath is currently a little (a lot) bland.  It's all builder's basic with no upgrading in sight.  Here is a 'Before' to update your memories.


And here is a mock-up of the floorplan with my best estimation of scale without actually measuring.


Finding inspiration on other blogs and on pinterest, we have a lot of great ideas!



We would love to add a wooden frame to the existing mirror!



Wouldn't this color look amazing on our white laminate cabinets?  So rich, yet chic.  I'm loving that hardware too!  Craig is partial to the polished nickle, and I'm all about the bling-ing chrome.


This is such a cute idea to really add some personality to the space.



And HERE is what we've come up with for our inspiration, some minky washed out chocolate on the walls, a deep grey-bordering-on-bluey for the cabinets and a bright white molding around the mirror.

Here is our tentative checkilist:
  • paint the walls (maybe minky chocolate?)
  • paint the laminate cabinets (dark! grey)
  • frame out the mirror in molding
  • find a light fixture (*sigh...)
  • DIY a window covering
  • plan the coordinating closet revamp
  • plan a coordinating fun extra for the 'loo' room

What do you think?  Too much?  Not enough?  How hard are those cabinets going to be to paint?  What about art?  What's in your bathroom?

Of course, since our closet is attached.  We couldn't leave it un-spiffified could we?  more to come! (Including maybe a stencil)
