MASTER // The Bath

By Erika Brechtel @smallshopstudio

Last week, Irene posted this bathroom by designer Betsy Burham, and I haven’t been able to get it out of my head. It incorporates so many of my favorite elements in a bathroom:

CARRERA MARBLE + CHANDELIER + TRADITIONAL RUG
(and maybe a fancy chair, or fiddle leaf fig, or ornate mirror….) 

More:

It got me really thinking about doing something with our master bath, which we haven’t touched (five years later!). We’re not going to go into a full remodel to add carrera marble per se, but at least we have a white base to start. Thinking of adding a few more of my favorite elements, for an easy update:

Large gold mirror (similar), $128.07  // Lucite hoop chandelier (still lusting!), $1695 // Diptyque Baies candle (the best!), $28 // Lucite knobs (to add to our existing tract home cabinets), $5.94 ea. // Vintage upholstered brass stool (from a new fave Etsy shop!), $78 // White chevron towels, $11.98+ // Multicolor wool rug, $498+

I am torn between going with a traditional colorway for the rug, or something bright and cheery like above. What do you think?
