Master of My (Bathroom) Domain

When I was writing this 3 year recap post, I realized I hadn't taken any photos of our master bathroom since we finished the renovation. Not that anything earth shattering had happened in there since, but it just seemed wrong that it didn't warrant its own post. Particularily as it's one of my very favorite spots in the house.



To refresh your memory, it didn't always look like this. It didn't even start out as a bathroom. We took this windowless room next to what became our master bedroom and turned it into a master bath and his & her closets.

So why do I love it so much in here? Well first off the idea of having a bathroom that only my husband and I use is pretty fabulous. It's our private sanctuary. (Neither of us had ever lived in a house with more than one bathroom before so this is the high life!)

A few other perks is having my very own medicine cabinet. All my lotions and potions just for moi.

And if that weren't enough, I heart the thermostatic shower. No need to futz with the hot and cold until its just right. The temp is always perfect with just a quarter turn.

Another detail I'm so happy we included in the reno was adding a between the beams skylight right over the vanity. Its a little thing but it makes a big difference.

And finally, this little orchid we picked up at Ikea a few weeks ago. I have somehow managed to keep it alive thus far! No one is more amazed than me about that.

Eventually I'd like to add some art on the left hand wall. But I haven't yet found something just right yet. Any ideas?
