Bath Makeover--I Found the Right Glass Tile!

12 years ago
last modified: 12 years ago
In my ranch-style I wanted a different note in my bath makeover. Took part of a closet and made my 5.5 X 6 ft. bath into a 5.5 X 12. For under $6,000, completely gutted, took out tub, added large shower, the glass sink and iridescent tile I wanted, and a little bit of glitz with the lighting. The sink has the Mosaic LED light strip behind it; colors can be changed, or can rotate. Much cheaper than some of the lighted sinks I saw online. Love my Pegasus faucet and towel bars, love my Delta shower head and my Accord shower with the moveable seat, and REALLY love my Pegasus glass sink. All new cabinets gave much more space, and an old but very nice full length mirror became the door for a large medicine cabinet. Finished it off with a wall "fireplace" that finally gives me the heater I wanted for years, not to mention ambiance. Thanks to all the good ideas on Houzz and all the info. This was a fun project and I am truly enjoying it!

    Love the new look but I'm just not seeing any use of the additional square footage?

    Brickin--We got a larger shower space and larger cabinet space but mostly got just a nicer feeling?

    So it's roomier- that's great! I just couldn't tell from the angles. It has the look of a relaxing spa- what a treat!

    Just to let anyone know that might be interested, I found this tile at The Glass Tile store online. It was on sale and very reasonable compared to other places. Also, just a note: the tall vase was another tile sample I ordered and it was very nice but too expensive, so I just wrapped it around a plain glass cylinder vase and it fit perfectly and goes very well. The beautiful painting reflected in the mirror is by my daughter, professional artist. It is sealed on the back with clear caulk to protect from moisture.

    Imhawth--my other daughter lives in Houston too! Her husband is building them a LEED home, gigantic (5000+sq ft) but will cost less than $300. a month to heat, cool, etc. It is in Kingwood.
