I sooooo need a new bathroom - this is what we inherited 15 years ago when we moved house, and as you can see, it can hardly be described as luxurious or relaxing.
But because it's perfectly functional, we've never got around to renovating it. The only thing that has ever been done is replacing the floor when it literally rotted away a few years ago!
So, when Jen at Love Chic Living wrote about a bloggers competition that she is running in conjunction with bathandshower.com to create a moodboard for your bathroom revamp, I knew this was the proverbial "kick up the backside" that I needed to finally take the plunge and decide to create the bathroom I have always dreamed of.
I want the space to feel luxurious and like a spa. This will be my sanctuary, so the first thing that I need is this fab double ended whirlpool bath that will create masses of bubbles and sooth my aches away. It's great as it's got room in the corners to put my glass of wine and candles whilst I relax (or even a glass each end if we decide to bathe-a-deux! ;) ).
Large rectangular travertine-style tiles will cover the walls and floors (which will have underfloor heating to keep my toes toasty warm). I'd love modern taps like these and a mirror with lights down the side so I can see when my eyeliner is straight! The basin will be wall hung to make the room feel more spacious but I hate seeing the plumbing, so this one will be ideal. As well as toasty toes, I need warm towels to envelop me after my relaxing bath so this contemporary heated towel rail will be perfect draped with some deep burgundy fluffy bath sheets.
So, now I just have to persuade my husband that it's time to get out the tile cutter and pipe bender.....watch this space!
