Redecoration : Master Bathroom

After several leaks, our first floor toilet is totally out of action and the shower has already been leaking into the kitchen downstairs – so next up for an upgrade is our master bathroom. As it’s on the same floor as the kids bedroom we could call it a family bathroom but I prefer to have something more grown up but with an injection of fun.

The existing blue and white tiles and bathroom suite haven’t been updated since the 1980s (hence the phrase ‘suite’!) so it’s well overdue an overhaul.

I’ve been thinking about this one for ages. We’re on a tight budget so places like CP Hart are a bit out of range. I plan on putting in metro tiles and possibly hex floor tiles and spend money on decent brassware.

Inspiration:

I’m still deliberating on pretty much everything…

Classic  or modern taps?

White metro tiles…glossy or matt?

Pale, medium or dark grout??

Floor…pattern or plain??

and don’t even get me started on lighting and accessories…

You see my predicament??!

Having said that, a few things are pretty much concluded:

– matt white flat metro wall tiles

– medium grout

– modern freestanding bath

– modern wall mounted basin

As i’m pretty much not able to think about anything else right now, expect more posts this week.  Oh, and the builders start work in a week!!!!!
