My "new" Ideal Master Bathroom

When we went to dad's Aunt Jennie's 90th birthday party, we stayed in a little "mom and pop" motel in St. Cloud that we've stayed in before.  We got the very last room and it was one that wasn't quite finished, according to the motel hostess.  I LOVED the bathroom so took pictures of it and surprise of all surprises, dad really liked it too.  In fact, he approved of duplicating it in our master bathroom.

 This vanity was the tallest one I've ever seen - too bad I didn't have a tape measure so I could measure it.  I plan to contact the motel and see if they will measure for me.  I don't think I'll put a coffee pot on my vanity, however.  I twould like dad to just build a box to set the vanity we have now on and put a door in front.  Holly suggested using that space to put my toilet paper and I think it's a fantastic idea.
 They had a modular walk-in shower.  I need to price them and then decide if I want to try to do ceramic tile or a modular shower.  I don't think I would do the tile myself.  If my John-boy lived closer, I'd try to talk him into doing it for me.  See the little bench in the corner - I want that too so I can sit down and shave my legs or prop my leg up and shave.  Since we have the tub in the hallway bathroom, there really isn't a need to have one in the master.
Finally, this is the ceramic tile - love the color - love the size.  This I think I could do myself since our bathroom is barely large enough to turn around in.

I did not take a picture of the "high rise" stool but that is also a must. It even had a self-closing lid which is OK but not necessary.

I even liked the toilet paper holder - not the stand alone one but the one on the side of the vanity and the double towel bar.

Well, that's all I have to say for today.  Have a good weekend!

Love,
Gramma and MOM
