And what about a fun, bold paint color for the garden tub area? It wouldn't be hard to do, it wouldn't cost much $$$ and it would add some fun color and interest to that area?Rebecca@This Present Lifehttp://happybabydesigns.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1399651887896621732.post-30717124415794463902011-03-14T15:03:14.195-04:002011-03-14T15:03:14.195-04:00Yikes...sorry for the novel! :)Yikes...sorry for the novel! :)Mrs. Jones from the Circushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09664354597450248544noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1399651887896621732.post-22104187201234032182011-03-14T15:02:58.662-04:002011-03-14T15:02:58.662-04:00I am sure you will come up with something fabulous...I am sure you will come up with something fabulous!!! I saw an espresso/black vanity/bathroom makeover where the lady just basically used paint and changed up the pulls.<br />http://www.beneathmyheart.net/2011/03/fabulous-bathroom-makeover/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=fabulous-bathroom-makeover<br /><br />I love the jars...I am sure you can find some great things at goodwill and then use vinyl or fabric or something. I saw where a lady used the Starbucks bottles from those frapachino (sp?) 4-packs that you purchase at the grocery store. Pretty cute!!<br /><br />And!! The garden tub thing...http://southernhospitalityblog.com/my-house/ this lady did some tile around her tub. I also saw on DIY and HGTV (because I am a total junkie) how they tile (like in the picture you posted) with cheaper tile and then put a pretty, more expensive border along the top to make it more visually interesting. Tiling is not hard; you can do it!!Mrs. Jones from the Circushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09664354597450248544noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1399651887896621732.post-50189431787089861462011-03-14T14:04:19.914-04:002011-03-14T14:04:19.914-04:00Poor thing, doesn't it suck to not have a mast...Poor thing, doesn't it suck to not have a master bath that you just want relax in? At least you have a tub, my master only has a shower!! I think you can totally turn the master bath around. You're on to a great start with the thought of goodwill, and doing your own version of the expensive bottles. As for the wall, you should try stenciling! It makes a huge difference and looks like wallpaper. I did it in my coat closet if you want to check it out. http://manymomentsofme.blogspot.com/2011/01/coat-closet-organization.html<br /><br />Also, I'm following you back!Tatum @ Tatum's Takehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14366522928317066718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1399651887896621732.post-44786728473487585542011-03-14T11:02:28.575-04:002011-03-14T11:02:28.575-04:00can't wait to see what you come up with!!

Honestly, I would buy some, if I got a sweet deal! AND, you posted just the right question. I have a garden tub as well that needs a little POP! Maybe we could do some wall stenciling (http://www.cuttingedgestencils.com/wall-stencils-damask-stencils.html) in that nook OR you could put those mirrored "windows" in there for depth. I have seen them at Hobby Lobby and just bought 4 of them at a thrift store (be looking for my post on them). Here is a picture of them in a living room. Tell me what you think!
