If you’re anything like me, when you’re in the middle of redesigning a space, your brain floats into fantasy land where you have all the money in the world and could do whatever you want. If you brain doesn’t do that, well…then you’re lucky because it’s heart breaking sometimes! But alas, it’s always fun to dream up the perfect space. If for nothing else, you can use elements of that design and try to find a more budget friendly way to accomplish that. When UKBathrooms.com approached me in regards to doing a write-up, I couldn’t say no simply because its way too much fun to go online, see the abundance of options, and play around with things. It was almost impossible to say no when I started browsing and found some AMAZING pieces.  The tubs alone are to die for, but that may be because the Sarah Richardson in me always loves a tub. Due to the fact they are a British company, you’ll find more ornate and sleek lines than you would often find here in the states. Personally, I find design found in other countries always to be fascinating  Which is ultimately why I had to cancel our cable subscription because I watched House Hunters International on HGTV way too much. Real life problems, I know. Can you blame me though? That show is addicting.  Sometimes you don’t always have the option to live in another country, so why not bring the flare into your own home?  Especially in a room where you spend more time in than you’d like to admit.

1. B.C. Sanitan Greenwhich Slipper Bath

2. Roper Rhodes Provence 700mm White Gloss Basin and Unit

3. Imperial Drift Close Coupled Pan And Cistern

4. Essential Curved Chrome Towel Warmer

5. V & B Bianco Nero Decor Tile 1581 (30 x 60cm)

First things first, let’s talk about that slipper bath. Isn’t it absolutely gorgeous?  And the best part of it is that it comes in four different colors. Blue seems to be ideal though simply because it is just so calming, which is the whole point of a slipper bath like that. The basin unit is the perfect combination of traditional and modern, which is something that I find really difficult to blend.  Either it’s too much of one, and not enough of the other. Now, I can’t remember if I have previously raved about the fact that we have a really pretty toilet. May seem like an oxy-moron but pretty toilets do exist! Ours has a really elegant base and top, made by Kohler.  Even as much as I love our toilet, when I saw the version that UKBathrooms.com offered – I was a little jealous. I dare you to tell me that isn’t one sexy toilet, because it totally is!  When I think about truly being fancy, the only thing that comes to mind is having a towel heater in your bathroom. Is that not a symbol of arriving in the world? There is nothing more fancy than having a towel rack that keeps your towels warm. Last but not least, I couldn’t help but fall in love with the tile that they offer, especially the mixed herringbone design. Holy beautiful!  The different textures and sheens make it look so absolutely elegant, but not so graphic that it looks harsh in the bathroom. Elegant and understated. I would absolutely love to use that tile to replace what we currently have in our shower.
