@ hollielambrose...I am of the turn of mind that if somebody just loves things natural and oif "driftwood" or old wood...or even new twigs and branches... and can envision what can be made from those pieces of nondescript nature...these are all very acceptable in any kind of home. I do not like homes that are show pieces in themselves, musoleums to one's existence so to speak, but i definitely do like homes that are turned into artifacts by everything hand made and recycled/repurposed. Thes items have soul! They express the idea of "home...where the heart lives" and the creativity and zest for living and beautiful things of those who have made them or purchased them for their homes. Every one of the Pictures above is an inspiration to me! To me a hand made item from any kind of wood or twig that has been designed to serve a practical purpose is something of wonder compared with some of the stark concrete sleek dwellings that are in vogue today. A HOME never dates. A HOUSE does.

hi there thanks for the update. The one flaw in this beautiful bathroom? There's always one thing! Thank you for letting me know about this detail, because I was seriously thinking of doing it this way myself. In terms of your bathroom, I wonder if a very neat bead of silicone on the top only - of the join between the glass and the vanity - could help? This way the underneath is still fee to breathe and not gather gunk. But I guess then you don't get that lovely clean glass feeling from inside the shower.....

Let’s talk about a few little things that you might not have thought could add luxurious bathroom vibes…Accessories! And the good new is, that they are relatively cost effective and an easy way change the look and feel of your entire bathroom. He’re our list of essential accessories that you can easily DIY and bring your bathroom straight into 2020: Heated Towel Rails – the ultimate in a luxurious bathroom is a heated towel rail. What could be better than getting out of the shower to a warm, fluffy towel! Robe Hooks – these nifty little pieces aren’t just for robes… We suggest using them to hang towels, hand towels! Mirrors – another of our favourite ways to transform your bathroom, is with mirrors. They are a quick and easy way to bring a fresh feel to the space and with more and more styles available, you can change them whenever you like Hand Towel Holder – one of the often forgotten accessories in a bathroom is the hand towel ring. Make sure you position this piece within easy reach of your basin and add a beautiful coloured or texture towel to complete the luxurious bathroom look. Shower Shelf – if you didn’t opt for a shower niche to hold all your toiletries, then you might like the idea of a shower shelf. Not only are they a practical storage solution, but they are also available in a range of sizes and finishes that will instantly add a luxe design feature to your showering experience!

If you do it stop it at vanity height. However, I’d do all horizontal plank tiles to match vanity planks and keep it simple to let the lovely vanity shine.
