renovation is the white tiles laid in
a subway pattern with contrasting
grout, here framing the vanity area.- Here’s a bright idea! Exposed
filament bulbs are making a
comeback in all rooms of the
house. These lengthy beauties
are from Bunnings. - Seek balance in your
bathroom scheme. Here, the
white wall tiles, cabinetry and

new towels. Love! - A bath-side stool is equally
handy for when you’re bathing
the kids or as a side table when
you’re relaxing in the tub.
