BATH WEEK continues! I promised 5-7 days of baths and now I am on day 5…we’ll see if I can come up with anything over the weekend!

Today I am thrilled to show off some fabulous COCOCOZY reader submissions. These are bath’s proud readers happily submitted for today’s post! Thank you readers for your submissions!

I’ve included a quote from each email that was sent to me – emails describe the bathrooms in readers’ own words. Hope you enjoy!

BLACK & WHITE BARGAIN MAKEOVER

“I am so happy with the outcome. I got the mirror from goodwill 🙂 and the wallpaper is from Sherwin-Williams easychange (the book is ink black, white, neutral easychange or page 179).” Charmaine, My Best Friend Craig blog

“I was on a serious budget, so I created an oversized basketweave pattern by cutting faux marble porcelain squares in half and using black granite tiles cut to size as well. Added some much needed built in storage as well by using some space from a hall closet.” Debbie Basnett, Vintage Scout Interiors

SMALL APARTMENT BATH’S SPA REMODEL

Small and cluttered pink bathroom
Before, this apartment’s pink bath was a cluttered mess.(above)

“I would love to submit photos of my client’s bathroom remodel. Designing this tiny bathroom in a small Manhattan apartment was challenging. Opting for a pedestal sink provided an open feeling. A soaking tub, which is deep, but smaller than a standard tub, was a space saving solution. The monochromatic floor to ceiling tiles are classic beige and cover the walls and floor giving a spacious feel to the room while white fixtures and towels add brightness. I chose a detailed mosaic trim along the perimeter of the floor to add interest and character. A glass shelf and a tiled windowsill help provide space for extras” Elizabeth Meyerson, Gambi Design

MASTER BATH WITH BLACK
Photos submitted by Meryl Weis from Northbrook, IL

Black master bathroom with white cabinets and moldings and Carrara marble floor

“I just finished a master bath addition that I think came out amazing. I became obsessed with the idea of using black on the walls, but equally terrified. I kept trying to talk myself out of it, but I just had to do it. It was a risk that payed off. I used Graham and Brown “Enchant” in black. All the cabinetry and moldings are in Benjamin Moore Acadia White. The floors and countertops are Carrara. The paint in the shower and toilet area is Trout Grey.

The room was designed to have a free standing tub under the windows at the end, but since neither my husband nor I are bathers, we opted for a chaise lounge which we use and love.” Meryl Weis

MOVE-IN-READY BEACH CONDO BATH

“Hope you like our bathroom a little — we do! Best part is that we didn’t have to do any work, as we inherited it as is from previous owner of our new beach condo.” Keely Stahl.

    Love these bathroom renovations, especially as I have been working on the bathrooms in my new house (with my designer). Bear Hill Interiors are always a favorite, and I am loving the large scale basketweave, as well as all of the bathrooms you have featured!

    Do you know how much value could be in the green with black accent bathroom tiles torn out in that “remodel” ?Designer Debbie might like her update but I don’t.
    50’s bathroom tile can be in wonderful combinations, not to mention it’s durability.
    Classic Mid-Century tile bathrooms being laid to waste so often by “designers”. Wasteful too.
