Everything is a miracle. It is a miracle that one does not dissolve in one's bath like a lump of sugar.
~Pablo Picasso
It is time to look for a tub/shower for the guest bathroom. Tubs are highly personal. Some people love to soak for a long time and listen to music. Others love candles and a good view. Oh la la and when love is in the air........
There are so
many styles and shapes. I love the clean lines of the simple, stand
alone tubs. I wanted the white tub above. It turns out they are all
too wide for the space. Very disappointing. I had to look for something else. Plus,
after all, this bathroom is very, very small. I just felt because it is
so small it needed something special.
Herr Reinhart
suggested a clawfoot tub. We had stayed in the historic Wawona Hotel in
Yosemite National Park years ago. Our room had a private bath with a
clawfoot tub with a shower. I began looking at clawfoot tubs. Not as
costly. Will fit in the small confines of this tiny bathroom. It has a specialness. And I
could paint the outside whatever color I wanted if I so desired!
Off to Ohmega Salvage in Berkeley to do some tub shopping!
