Our main bathroom here at Greystanes still has its original Bath /shower and bead board walls and roof.
We havent had to do much to it really, although the antique vanity was a mess which you can read about
Will do an update on that very soon!
This is how our bathroom looks currently...
I've added a few things and given them a lick of white paint.
The ladder I found under the house (along with the grill of a vintage ~ and I mean 1920's car ~ will have a think about what to do with that)
and that old towel rail at the front of the picture I found at an op shop posing as a plant stand in a strange mustardy green colour...
Slapped a bit of paint on the ladder to give a slightly worn look, the towel rail I was a bit more careful with the finish, undercoat and three top coats of gloss enamel.
My ever wonderful husband knocked the nails and tidied up the ladder a bit so the towels wouldnt catch on it..
I think they already look a lot better just with the undercoat (above)....
The gold towel rail is on the "get rid of" list. Am waiting to track down some antique hooks which I will put there instead. The freestanding towel rail doesnt hold enough wet towels for all of us!
This old cast iron industrial stool I had sitting in my EBAY STORE for ages without a bite.
Why I didnt think of putting in the bathroom earlier I do not know, perfect for resting clothes or a towel on. Or a glass of wine whilst soaking in the bath!! I'm keeping it now....
This is an old doctors surgical cabinet I found in Country Victoria some time ago.
It didnt have a bottom shelf so I added an old vintage mirror instead
Great for holding old Chemists bottles...
Next step is to sort out all that old stuff inside the cabinet...
Above is my favourite leadlight window in the house, a bit hard to see from this side, this is how it looks from the other..
Feels good to know one room is nearly finished, yay!!....

I've joined a party!
