These days, do you ever notice that it seems that there is a blending of rooms? Sometimes I chuckle to myself [or out loud] that “all I need is…” And I could LIVE in that one room and sometimes that room is the bathroom! For the purposes of this post about interesting bathroom ideas, I’m also going to include powder rooms.

What are some interesting bathroom ideas that make it feel more like a living room, etc?

hardwood floors
real furniture, not just built-in pieces
cabinets for sinks made from real furniture
comfortable chairs, chaises and even sofas
big, gorgeous windows
fireplaces
drapes
beautiful mirrors with antique frames
beautiful non-bathroom-type lighting
storage in containers not typically used in bathrooms
antiques
tapestries
real rugs instead of bath mats
non-bath-type accessories
art [which needs its own post]

[Some of these I could not find the original source and therefore, they are uncredited.]

Love the antiques and rusticity

Big window with luscious drapes

William and Mary High Boy and leaded glass window. The hell with privacy when you have a window as gorgeous as that!

A bathtub in the middle of the living room? Hey, why not?

Ya know… if I had a bathroom that looked like this… I would invite all of my friends in for tea too! :]

If only there was a way to hide the plumbing, but otherwise, love, love this!
