As promised last post I thought it was time to show a bit more of my house, so here is the ensuite! There is still a little bit to do, such as finding the perfect and not too expensive lights for above the mirrors and change the hideous taps I never wanted in the first place. Both of which could take years! I also keep changing the contents of the apothecary jars too, and move them around the house. The larger one was filled with red baubles and used as a centre piece for the Christmas table last year.
...and closer look at the butterflies on the wall, made from an old atlas!
Looks great and I love the apothecary jars. I had one on the bench in our bathroom and I bumped it when cleaning and it now has a big crack in it. I have to turn it to the back. ;-)
