Remove the dark grout from the floor tile (there is a really handy gizzo for this a guy on bathroom reno show used it) & re-grout with white or same as wall tile. Then put a yellow fabric faux pleated blind at the window & use the same fabric for a shower curtain, keeping the plastic liner.<br /> <br />Change the scones for something bigger & the ceiling light for maybe a chandelier, big yellow prints on the wall & I think it will instantly look warmer, some crown moulding could also be added. Some minor changes could save you some serious money.<br /><br />Good luck.<br /><br />BarbBarbara Travisnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1189121861977780830.post-67460423921702170742010-11-18T08:49:01.380-05:002010-11-18T08:49:01.380-05:00nice -nice -Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17924452920872884597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1189121861977780830.post-14428520684192572352010-11-18T06:24:11.798-05:002010-11-18T06:24:11.798-05:00The floor is the only thing that really jumps out ...The floor is the only thing that really jumps out at me as being out of place. I also thought the dark tiles were black and was thinking how neat a black floor would be. You could still do a deep blue tile floor but it would depend on how much you like blue. The rest I think could just use some accessorizing.Karlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15633341851554828287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1189121861977780830.post-22538677330615848152010-11-17T17:11:59.154-05:002010-11-17T17:11:59.154-05:00its actually blue and white tiles...a royal blue (...its actually blue and white tiles...a royal blue (i think that's what you would call it)...so 4 of the 5 rooms upstairs (master, guestroom, office & this bathroom) have the same blue in the decor...its the nursery thats greens and yellows <br /><br />I hadn't considered JUST doing the floor and fixtures...I wonder how much DIY we could accomplish??? Its a GREAT idea!<br /><br />I was dreaming of marble and a claw foot tub...but hexagon tiles and a new sink & toilet would be pretty sweet too!Shannonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09933224703431682343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1189121861977780830.post-55875912115161065092010-11-17T16:58:01.696-05:002010-11-17T16:58:01.696-05:00oh, thank you, I actually wanted to ask if you cou...oh, thank you, I actually wanted to ask if you could post your main bathroom photos :) I'm hoping we will redo ours this year. I really like the black tile border. I agree floor tile is not the best. I'll show you my bathroom. Yours looks like a million bucks compared! :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10717683959293876114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1189121861977780830.post-87310692785089277452010-11-17T13:15:00.823-05:002010-11-17T13:15:00.823-05:00I agree ...

I think i'd play that up by changing the floor tile to white ceramic hexagons, changing the toilet to an American Standard Town Square, changing to a console style sink with turned legs, new faucets, and a new school house light. By the way have you seen Jenn's bathroom? It is really gorgeous! http://theinteriorist.tumblr.com/post/1320254347/the-big-bathroom-reveal-dun-dun-duuuunKylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12808099068631042606noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1189121861977780830.post-40665775014568463922010-11-17T12:00:32.519-05:002010-11-17T12:00:32.519-05:00OK, you have just inspired me.

As the house was built in 1912, I was thinking of something with some old style cachet. Black and white tile on the wall came to mind. That top strip with the thin one underneath just rocks - though I'd tend to put subway tiles for the white ones...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
