The bathroom has always been a place you could make a statement! It's where you can be a bit crazy or a bit daring but it's also a great place to spend wisely to get the greatest impact. Decorative finishes can be at the expensive end of your decoration budget but they can be used in small doses like on a bath tub to great effect.
Here are a few we have done over the years
|
Gilded with Alumium Leaf and Patinated
to match light fittings and picture frames in the room |
Glitz is easy to use in a bathroom, the bath tub above is obviously to the floor but the one below has feet and the balls of a ball and claw foot are fun to gild. I always long to paint the nails of the claw red....as if they have nail varnish on

Here's a close up |
On this bath we used foils and a stencil to create the glamour - it is subtle enough that you have to angle the camera to catch the light before you see it so not "in your face"
|
This bath is in "The Bathroom Company Perth" showroom.
The stencil is from The Stencil Library |
Matching wallpapers and fittings is a common thing for us - here we bridge well between the wallpaper and the floor
|
Mottled stoney finish with using our Klondike finish - it has a subtle sparkle in there that you can't really see in this shot |
Finally a bit of showmanship - if you can't afford a big mural a bath panel is a great place to have a wee one.
