Stand up shower





Nafty would actually be able to stretch out and relax in this cast iron soaking tub.  I like the cast iron because it holds the heat........





Floor tile design for the master bathroom

Love this double sink idea for the master bath and the pedestal sink for the first floor powder room!





Love the idea of turning an old dresser into a bathroom vanity! Want to do this in the second floor guest bathroom...

I plan to refinish the existing claw foot tub. I love these traditional style black and white floor tiles which are consistent with the 1920s period of the house. Instead of the white wood wainscoting I plan to use a simple white ceramic subway tile to the same height.  I want to find a vintage dresser and install a white porcelain vessel sink with marble top. So simple and serene looking (and also pretty economical)........






The Hearthstone Clydesdale wood burning fireplace insert. This is the one I plan to use with the living room fireplace.  The two flues have an interconnecting hole in them so the fireplace inspector said we cant use them but an insert like this with stove piping will be fine. This non-catalytic wood insert heats up to 2000 square feet and it has a soapstone interior so it holds the heat well.  Looks pretty warm and cozy to me.
