Do you "decorate" your master bath?

151949 — Sat, 08 Jul 2017 12:32:41 GMT

Even though no one sees it but you & your DH?

I have decorated our guest bath - it's my Pittsburgh room. I purchased several photos from a great local Pitts. photographer and have them in a collage in there, plus a few terrible towels and even a shower curtain that has the logos of the Steelers, Pirates and Penguins on it. I use black & gold towels in there too.

However, I do not have any decor in our master bath, since no one sees it but me , hubby and the housekeeper.

It is funny how our nostalgia for Pgh. stays with us always. I have not lived there for a lot of years, but it is still 'home'. I have a sketch of the incline descending the hill from Mt Washington that I bought from a local Pgh. artist that hangs in one of our bathrooms.

Absolutely. Every bathroom in the house -- there are 3 -- is decorated. I don't have a DH but I have me and that's reason enough!

We just finished remodeling two of our bathrooms this week and I love them. One we kept as a tub/shower combo and just got a new shower curtain that matches the color of the walls. The other (master bath) we removed the tub and had it replaced with a shower only. Still trying to to decide on colors for that one but gray looks nice since the walls are grayish. I will put up something on the walls but just haven't figured out what yet. They aren't huge bathrooms so can't go crazy.

@Meowingkitty Try gray and yellow with white accents. That is a popular combo along with gray, pink and white.

@151949 Decor is more for yourself versus anyone else. Do what makes you happy when you walk into the room.

@gmkb Look online at David Decello photography - I think you'll enjoy his pictures.

I don't have a theme going but I do have a clock, pictures hung and a beautiful floral arrangement between the 2 vanities. I also have a fake ivy (looks very real) on top of the cabinet above the toilet.

The guest bathroom I used the colors, soft blue, soft green with brown. I also have a beautiful bluish vase on the left of the sink with greenery draping down the vase. I have pictures hung along with a clock

I don't have a master (thankfully! 3 bathrooms are enough to clean) but each bath has a color scheme, but not a lot of tchotchkes in them...simply because I want ease in cleaning

Yes, I decorate my MB. It's the first room I see in the morning, do my hair & makeup there. It's also the last room I see at night removing makeup and a relaxing bubble bath.

To the extent that I selected a pretty paint color and several appealing shower curtains and towels sets that I change out and hung a picture and wall art, yes, I decorated my bath. I decorate all my rooms. I do it for me, not for others that might or might not see it.

Yes, I decorate the master bath. I have a vase on the vanity with sprays and flamesless candles. On the walls four generic hangings.

I have a carved mermaid hanging on the wall...other than that, everything in there is purely for function!

I do have a picture of the Lake Erie lighthouse on Presque Isle and A clock in the master bath.The picture is because I didn't have anywhere else to hang it and the clock is to keep me from lollygagging in the tub when I need to be getting ready to go somewhere.

On the vanity I have 2 trays - one for each of us to hold our various products deodorant - body powder - toothbrushes etc. The trays are plastic but each has a pretty seashell design on it.

I love to decorate and I decorate everything - including myself with clothes and jewelry. I have two baths and both have picture/.mirror/scones wall grouping, floral arrangement, the larger has a tier of three glass shelves with brass braces on the wall with glassware, picture, candles. I have a lace shower curtain with swags in that one (I love Victorian decor). I have to decorate everyting - can't leave it alone. I would never make it as a minimalilst! Horrors! I even have wallpaper!

No decorations in our bathrooms outside of the shower curtains and nice towels. I don't like stuff on the walls anywhere in my house.

I'm lucky that towels, toilet paper, our toothbrushes, soap and shampoos, etc fit in our one and only bathroom but even if I had a huge bathroom I surely wouldn't want needless stuff to get soggy, dusty and have to be cleaned. Just so it is clean and functional is all I care about!

We stayed at a friends one night on our way north. There were so many foo foo items around the tub that had to be removed so we could use it!

In our guest bath I used to have a few seashells in the tub area but I have moved them out to the lanai now.The only decoration left in the tub/shower is a rubber duckie - & he is black & yellow - that's why he is in there.

My Aunt used to have a beta fish in a small bowl sitting on a shelf in the shower of the guest bath. She said just shower with him there - it doesn't bother him. I was very careful not to get any soap in his bowl.
