Upstairs Bath Inspiration

It's really hard to find pictures of bathrooms for inspirations. They are all so unatainable. Where are the pictures of real bathrooms for the average Joe?

But, I do love this color. It's called Peacock Feathers by Benjamin Moore.

I love this sink.

I never thought I'd get excited about faucets, but this one is cool.  It's by Delta.

I really like this color blue with the color of these cabinets.  I think I might have to restain the bathroom vanity.

This is what I need in the bathroom.  Not a whole wall & floor of it, but definitely some.

Obviously, this isn't a bathroom, but it's the right color combination.  What a beautiful room!
















I can't copy the picture over here, so this link will have to do.  I think this curtain might look good in the bathroom.  It's from Target.

I don't know if I'd have the guts to put a rock wall up in my bathroom, but I really like this.  And check out the sink too.  It's shell shaped.

This is what I mean by bathrooms that aren't real.  Look at this.  Have you ever seen a bathroom this beautiful?  I'd never leave.  I think I'd stay in that shower forever.  Sigh.

A little bit of useful information I learned today... a common bathroom lighting mistake:

Using downlights over the vanity without adding lights on the side. Standing directly under a downlight, without any light at the sides of the face, creates exaggerated and unflattering shadows. In the bathroom, using a downlight over the sink is fine to accent the expensive polished nickel faucet you've specified, but it's insufficient for tasks like shaving, tweezing, and applying makeup. For this, we need light at the sides of the mirror at eye level to minimize shadows and provide even distribution. This can be achieved with sconces flanking the mirror.

Guess we need to install some sconces.
