I pretty much want to live in my new master bathroom remodel.

We have lived in our current house over 20 years and raised four chidren here. After that amount of time, a house gets tired. Especially bathrooms. Not only was our master bathroom tired, it was dated and it was in desperate need of a facelift. Not just a facelift but a complete overhaul!
I have been in the redecorating mode lately. You can see my living room redo here and my master bedroom redo here.
Here is what my bathroom looked like before:
Yes, my husband loves baseball caps. This is only a small part of the collection – you should see my garage where he hangs them all from the ceiling!!
It definitely needed an update!
A special thank you to my friend and amazing decorator Caitlin Wilson who helped me and guided me through the process!
Welcome to my new bathroom!
Our house was built in the 90’s. I guess the thing to do in the 90’s was carpet your bathroom, I’m not sure why??? I was anxious to get rid of the carpet out of the bathroom and the dated dark teal tile I had used as an accent tile and the old jacuzzi tub.
I wanted a white bathroom. I wanted it white and bright and clean. I wanted a classic vintage style and most of all, I wanted a claw foot bathtub!
I’ve dreamed about this tub for a long time. My husband is actually the bath taker in our house so he was all on board. I wanted it mainly because it is so pretty!
We took out the original linen closet and had a custom built cabinet made.
We used square Kohler undermount sinks that are nice and deep and Kohler Polished Chrome faucets.
The first home we bought was built in 1911 and it had the small six sided tile on the bathroom floor and I loved it so I knew I wanted to use that for the remodel too.
One thing this floor has though that the other floor didn’t, is that it’s heated! No cold floors on a cold winter morning!
We also used a smaller version of the tile on the shower floor. The other thing my husband loves, loves, loves about our bathroom remodel is the new shower head we put in. It’s pretty amazing!
There was also a new pretty Kohler toilet.
While my husband loves the new shower head (I do too) I think my favorite thing about the remodel is this nifty thing in one of the drawers.
It’s an electrical outlet in the drawer so I can leave my blow dryer plugged in, right in the drawer!! Love!!
Our counter tops and baseboards are Carrera marble. I had the large mirror made by a local glass place here in Portland. I went with one large mirror , instead of two smaller mirrors, to really open up the bathroom.
We added new doorknobs too, a pretty vintage inspired glass knob. All my hardware came from Chown Hardware in Portland.
For the window I ordered a linen roman shade from The Shade Store and had drapes made using Caitlin Wilson Textiles beautiful Grey Silhouette fabric.
The new vintage inspired Covington Hotel Double Sconce light fixtures are from Pottery Barn.
I’m pretty much in love! Now I want to redo the rest of the bathrooms!

So beautiful..classic! Everything is tied together so well. I looks like the 2″ white hexagon floor tiles are matte while the white subway tile is gloss. Is that right? Also, what color grout did you use on the floor and is it the same for the subway tile? Many thanks!
Leigh Anne Wilkes says
Yes, the floor is matte and the subway tile is gloss. We used a medium grey color grout., The subway tile we used a white grout to match the tile.
Susan says
I just love your bathroom Leigh Anne! May I ask what size your subway tile is on the wall? Thank you for sharing!
Leigh Anne says
Thanks I love it so much! The tile is 4 x 8.

Hi Leigh Anne,
I am in the middle of a master bath remodel myself. Very similar to yours except we don’t have room for a bathtub just a large shower. I was going to paint it a very light gold color but I love the white on white. Can you please let me know the color you painted? Also we have been struggling with one large mirror or two smaller mirrors. We are now going with one large mirror. Thank you for the photo’s.
Leigh Anne says
Michele, The paint is from Benjamin Moore and called Classic Grey. I love it and it is just the perfect amount of color in my bathroom.
Mandie says
I was curious as to what you used for your wall color. In some pictures it looks white and in others a very subtle gray. It is beautiful!
Leigh Anne says
Mandie, It is a really light grey – Classic Grey from Benjamin Moore 1548 I love it!
