Mom’s New Vintage Style Claw Food Bath Tub

My grandmother has been wanting to re-do her upstairs bathroom for many years, up until we finally took some time to sit and look around on the Internet to figure out exactly what style she was aiming for. We have come to the conclusion that she wants a Vintage style bathroom. For as long as I can remember she has only taken baths. She would put some bubble bath in the bath water, light some candles, set her cell phone and her cup of hot tea on the shelves and kick back with a good book for sometimes up to over an hour. We new not to bother her while she was soaking in the bathtub and if you needed to use the facilities while she was in there you were better off to go upstairs and use the bathroom up there and just let her be until she determined when it was time to come out and join the real world.

We came across some affordable claw foot bath tubs that immediately caught her eye, and she was sold right off the bat! Today her bathroom is completely done with her new tub set up, and she couldn’t be any happier with her choice. Now she can lay back in her tub and relax in her Vintage style bathing room til her heart’s content, she deserves it, let their be no doubt about that.

Taking Size in Consideration

Thinking hard about installing a whole new bathroom vanity and sink for the master bath here at the farm. The plumbing leaves a lot to be desired and needs updating badly, but that will have to wait until next year some time.

Bathroom vanities are not something that I really have paid much attention to in the past, but now that I have had to look and deal with this prehistoric model that has been here in the house since day one, I have been taking a look around on the Internet to get some ideas to ponder on.

I will forward the links to the Bathroom Vanities that I find and like online by email, to my older sister for her consideration, something that I find myself doing with most major decisions that come around regarding this old house and home. She has a vested interest in the place and I like to keep her in the loop for many reasons, and it’s just a common courtesy in my mind.

So far I have found one such Bathroom Vanity that looks promising, the bathroom is not big at all and I need to take that in consideration and find one on the petite and small side although I would like to be able to have room to install a Double Vanity. Maybe when I redo the bath on the upper level in the place, I can get one then.
