Put A Ring On It

New Bathroom sneak peek

I have always dreamed of having a Clawfoot tub.   
And it just so happens, when our builder made a 
huge mistake when what was suppose to be a soaker tub 
turned out to be more like a more like a hot tub, 
we offered to go purchase the tub ourselves. 
Guess what was on sale?
A Victorian style floor model tub was being discontinued 
and so now my dream  has come true.

Have a look at My Gorgeous Clawfoot Tub
I am still looking for all the finishing touches 
for our bathroom, but I wanted to share how it looks so far.
We found this Victorian look vanity at the same store
Rona Lindsay Ontario
It was a small space to work with, bit this 
corner shower works great
Also from Rona, Lindsay
Working with builders isn't always easy...
the tile with the wrong grout was completed before 
I had a chance to tell them.
Found this pretty ceiling fixture at good old Canadian Tire!
I have my eye on another vintage looking fixture 
for over the mirror...waiting for it to go on sale...
Made use of my own mirror and retro Parylite sconces
 The storage cabinet was a after thought from 
Canadian Tire...On sale of course...
My vintage serving dish makes a pretty mantel 
for my perfume, mini claw-tub and tea-light holder, 
which I use to hold my rings...
Not sure if the towel ladder is staying...
I'm looking for some cute pictures also...
Close-up of the vanity...A soft mint color...
looking for towels to match...

I really enjoy soaking in my gorgeous Victorian tub and yes, 
I have put a ring on it lol!
