What we had to work with: Beautiful retro tiles and amazing shiny metallic slate gray pant. Love. The landlord tried to get us to paint it something lighter but I was like ahhhhhhhhh nooooo I HAVE A VISION! (These were also the words I used when I convinced him to paint the living room turquoise for us. Bwahah. And he did. And he agreed it turned out really well. "You have great taste" were his exact words which probably means I should work for HGTV. Just throwing it on in the Universe, The Secret style.)
Anyway, voila:
The bathroom is big. Granted I come from the land of Polly Pocket-sized Manhattan bathrooms, but it has a ton of built-in storage space which is a game changer. (Aka it allows Spiros a place to put his stuff out of sight and for me to display tons o' treasures. Luckily he is a good sport.)
And there is kind of an awkward chest in between cabinets that was perfect for our Anthro-inspired letters. Like I said, HGTV here I come.
And can we talk about how amazing this shower curtain is? We love it. However I put Franklin in the bathroom with me while I showered today and I'm pretty sure he thought this giant beast had seized and eaten me. He was not amused.
Doesn't this look like the alien head from Independence Day? Yep, that is what I call fantastic decorating.
And, get excited , our toilet. Spiros bought me this beautiful copper piece of art in Berlin for my birthday. You can't tell how shiny it is, but it looks great with the metallic walls.
And last but not least, some of my treasures on display. All of these plates and bowls have a story, came from a trip or remind me of another time in my life. I'm glad I have somewhere to remind me of all the fun I've had (and serve a practical purpose!).
Yep, that IS a picture of dead octopi from Greece. To go with the shower curtain. I know Spiros is a keeper because when I showed him it, he told me it was PERFECT.
The end. Nautical 4 Life.
