My dream bathroom with claw foot outdoor bath

My Dream Bathroom was just that….in my dreams for 7 years!! I daydreamed, drew & dreamt about exactly how it would look,, starting with the  centerpiece - my claw foot bathtub, nestled amongst tropical foliage in an outdoor garden, with large pots, pavers, river pebbles, lights & garden screens from Bunnings.  I project managed & outsourced the tradies for carpentry, electrical, tiling etc. & began by removing the bath, window & partial wall to allow access to the garden.  It’s now a dreamy zen den enjoyed by all the family.

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community @Wendy56. It's sensational to have you join us, and many thanks for sharing your wonderful project.

 

Your dream bathroom is brilliant, and I trust you're thrilled with the results! Your vision for this space, with the centrepiece being the stunning clawfoot bathtub surrounded by tropical foliage in an outdoor garden, is nothing short of breathtaking. The beautifully polished result shows the thought and effort you put into planning and designing every detail.

 

All the fixtures and floor and wall tiles come together harmoniously to create a fabulous look.

 

How has the transformation impacted your daily life? Have you found yourself spending more time in this tranquil oasis, and has it become a place to unwind and rejuvenate?

 

Great work!
