It’s Friday, which means that Julia at Hooked on Houses is hosting her Hooked on Fridays party. Since there is actually something house-y that I am obsessed with at the moment I thought I would take this chance to join in.
That’s right, folks, I am hooked on bathrooms.
Since we’re in the midst of a master bedroom and bathroom remodel, I have been searching all over magazines and online to get ideas for how I want our bathroom to be.
I love clawfoot bathtubs
and wainscotting
and pedestal sinks
and creative storage.
I could go on all day. I have been staring at bathroom photos for too long. I can’t wait to be sharing ones of what we’re doing. As soon as we have, you know, walls.
Be sure to head over to Julia’s Place Hooked on Houses to see other links today!

I love wainscotting, too. I’ve been hinting at my husband that I’d love wainscotting in our upstairs bathroom. So far, he hasn’t taken the hint. =)

Ahhhh. Gorgeous photos. I have a bathroom re-do to do, too, so these rooms are very inspirational for me. Makes me want to get right to work on mine.
Thanks for joining my party this week, Emily! So nice to have you with us.

Beautiful bathrooms. I love the floor in the first one and I really want that wire shelf thing in the last.

I love claw foot tubs. We converted an entire bedroom into a bathroom with a tub like that (plus shower). And it’s fabulous. Old house charm to me.

Emily, I’ll never have a bathroom as pretty as these, but they sure are fun to look at. Love that vintage look…swoon!

i just found your blog via the Nester, and how appropriate that it was now. I am trying to redo my bathroom, but with almost all of the existing stuff. I love all the photos you put up, and would love my bathroom to be all white and blue, but unfortunately, I must work with a 1989 almond tub/shower and toilet. We are replacing the sinks and countertop, and I am allowed to paint the cabinets. I have been having the hardest time incorporating the almond with what I’d like, so I think I’m just going to ignore that it’s there! I look forward to seeing your photos. Good luck!

Fabulous! I’ll take one of each!

I agree that clawfoot bathtubs and wainscotting and pedestal sinks are all quite pretty to look at however, pedestal sinks aren’t very practical. I’m an American living in England where pedestal sinks are very common (with the horrible separate taps) and I’m looking forward to the day when I can re-do our bathroom and get a sink (with a mixer tap!) with a vanity unit built around it (as in most American bathrooms).
I love the blue cupboard for storage by the way. Unfortunately something like that would never fit in my tiny bathroom. . I love living in England but I do miss the size of rooms in the USA.

We’re hoping to redo our bathrooms to a cottage style here. I love hexagon tiles, clawfoot tubs and wainscotting.

Maureen – I know what you mean about pedestal sinks – we have just one tiny bathroom now with a pedestal sink and I don’t like how little storage we have in there. I think it will be easier once that bathroom isn’t our only bathroom. The new bathroom we are doing is going to have two pedestal sinks because we have them (free!) and our main objective is to make the room pretty but functional and there is going to be a LOT of built in storage. So think it will be okay without vanities. The armoire is pretty big, but I like seeing things like that so I can think outside the box and use something that suits my space better.

Wow, those are beautiful bathrooms!

I wonder if anyone can shed some light on matching up clawfoot tubs with pedestal sinks and toilets. I have a Kohler Bancroft toilet and pedestal sink which was designed to go with a non-freestanding, square, built-in tub. I would like to combine the sink and toilet with a freestanding, small, clawfoot tub. But the sink and toilet are squarish, and the tub, of course, won’t be. Any rules about this? I wonder if I should just start from scratch which a matched suite? I’ve searched the internet for pictures and am beginning to think I should sell the sink and toilet for whatever I can get and start from scratch. Any ideas, information or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

[...] Re-Grout Wall and Floor Tiles – This sounds like more work than it really is. I’ve discovered it takes some elbow grease but doesn’t cost too much. And new grout will make your tiles look almost new again. Go ahead and take a close look at how dingy they may be… I’ve been slowly re-working the tiles in our bathroom! [...]
