Very nice IMO - I would do 2 minor things differently:

1) the bottle of sticks on the right suggests a perfume diffuser, which would not be in my house. Aside from triggering, such oils and alcohols irritate me.

2) Plastic flowers. To quote a gay friend: "Plastic flowers are almost never fabulous!"

In the end, it is about what works for you.

The outer boundary of what we currently believe is feasible is far short of what we actually must do.

Cool. We keep incense in the shitter. Just guessin that when ya use some fancy essential oil it's a powder room.

I was wondering if I was the only one thinking of that. When I clean, I don't want it to be long, involved, or difficult. THAT design may be pretty to look at (which it IS), but my first thought was: "What a pain in the ass to clean and keep clean ..."

OMG - does he know me or what?

My first thought was "take that bowl out of the sink so I can see the sink." Wink

part of me says, "not in my house."

Nice job Jacks.

Silly me. As soon as I saw that, I was going to say don't let Pat see that. For sure she's going to want to mosaic it.

I love it Jackie. I don't understand however the concern about cleaning it. It's a guest bathroom. No one is going to be shaving or brushing their teeth in there. Just using the loo and washing their hands. Am I correct Jacks?

WAIT! WAIT! I gotta go get my pic of my powder bath! We put in a vessel sink as well, and, guys, it is not as problem with cleaning! First off, as someone mentioned, it gets very little use, so, although dusting is required, I simply hit ours with glass cleaner and a lil wipey wipey dos the trick!
I soo wanted one of the art glass vessels.........but thought $1200 was a bit steep.........especially since our house is now for sale!

Good looking, Jacks......congratulate yourself on a job well done!
