Eye Candy: Bathrooms

[EyeCandyOP]

I've been hoping someone would be up for a bathroom thread because I have a bathroom remodel on the horizon and I haven't looked at inspiration in a while. Let's do this!

Yay, thank you!! This is the OP of the other thread. Could we please do some penny tile floors?

I am SOOO up for this. I have multiple bathroom projects planned: new powder room and new full bath (for kids), plus two bathroom upgrades!! All on a budget but this is sort of my thinking...

Powder room (no window): Furniture style vanity -- sort of like a dresser -- with dramatic wall paper

Kid/teen bathroom: Traditional single vanity (painted green) with wide counter space and lots of drawers. Tile that seems easy to keep clean (i.e., less grout to bigger tiles)

MY OWN Bathroom (which is very small): beachy, breezy, change out current tub for a glass shower

Guest bathroom (in basement, so no windows): floating vanity, dark floors, glass shower, big tiles

I'm happy to contribute pictures if OP wants some help! I've been looking at and saving inspiration pictures for a long time now.

I’m in the middle of planning not one but two remodels and I’d love for somebody to critique my plans. If only I could figure out posting photos on my phone!

Me too! Me too! Three bathrooms to redo, master, a guest, and a "DH manly bathroom" in our basement.

Currently debating whether to reduce my master bath from double vanity to one for more counter and storage space (we don't share a bath for the sake of marital peace and harmony), current master only has a shower and I plan on keeping it that way because it is a small space. No kids, 1980s farmhouse (on a farm). I love basket weave and marble hex tiles, thinking classic black and white for the guest bath. I have an idea book saved on Houzz so will try and figure out how to post pics.

If it weren't for Covid we would be finishing a remodel of all three bathrooms in our house including getting rid of a huge Jacuzzi tub room and turning it in to an upstairs laundry room. The renovation was desperately needed from a mechanical/structural POV. So mid summer, because these renovations have not been able to be completed, we had a flood from the Jacuzzi tub drain and we currently have no ceiling in parts of the dining room and library.

We are serious about precautions due to DH's previous lung illness. We were just getting started with the designer in March and we had already selected the construction company. This sucks for so many reasons.

The bolded is a completely genius idea!!

Unfortunately, Houzz sucks for that . The only way I've found to post their pictures is to screenshot them and upload to a photo hosting service like https://imgbb.com/. Sometimes if you find a Houzz pic on Google you can copy the image that way. If someone else knows a better way I'd love to hear it.

FYI, here are the generic image instructions someone posted a few weeks ago:

If you don't know how to post a picture:
1. Right click any picture on the internet and select "copy image location."
2. Hit "Post Reply" on the thread you want to comment on.
3. Hit the "Img" button above the comment box, paste in your image URL (make sure there are no extra spaces) and then hit the Img button again. You can hit the preview button to make sure you did it right.

It winds up looking like the text in the comment box below:

We are just starting and this is my inspiration photo, thinking medium-dark vanities with white countertops. Can’t get the pic to show but here is a link.

We have a tiny powder room - 3' x 5'. Looking for new ideas that are fun but not over the top. I'm fluctuating between bold floor tile patterns or a patterned wall paper. We'll probably have the lower half of the wall in white tile to make them easier to clean.

Thanks for pulling up the pic for me. Would love opinions, my mom wasn’t that supportive. We have a McMansion type bathroom.

You can post Houzz pictures, but you have to know how to spot code.

Right click an image and a box pops up with a few clumps of code. Look in the "large image" box for img src, which is the HTML code that comes before an image. copy JUST the address of the image, which will usually end in jpg.

Then come here and use the BBcode to post the image.

I like simplicity:
