Splish Splash I Was Takin' A Bath....
In 1958 Bobby Darin released the hit song, "Splish Splash" (I Was Takin' A Bath). People today still sing that catchy little tune. It's FUN...and how many songs have been about soap, suds, and bathing on a Saturday night? At Old Sweetwater we're planning on enlarging what's now the hall bath into the Master Bath, so I've been getting inspiration. Here are some images of the often overlooked Bath Room! Anyone NOT know this song? Has anyone used that new waterproof paper-like membrane (Schluter or Noble are two companies) under tile? We're considering it for the new shower.

Some gorgeous bathrooms there Janean, the first two are really stunning.. I would love one that I had put a lot of thought into, and included lots of things that I actually liked, instead of the bare minimun!!

Mmmmmmmmm, that pink bathroom with the tub in the middle. Give me a TV in front of me with old movies and I am set!

Oh, I love that 2nd bathroom, but would only have it if I could afford to have a maid to keep it spotlessly clean!
Hope all is well, and things are getting a little more back to normal. You have been in my thoughts!

Love the bathtub pics! Can't decide which one I like best! You'll have to post before and after pics!
Good Morning Janean! I love that song...brings back happy memories of when I was young. How exciting to get a larger master bedroom...good for you. I love all the pictures of old fashioned bathtubs...I don't know what it is about them but I REALLY think they're neat. We have an old footed bathtub sitting outside waiting for when we decide it's time to build a master bathroom here at the farm. Right now we've only got the one bathroom and it needs major work but that will wait until the new bathroom goes in or we won't have ANY bathroom LOL! I'm sure you're not looking forward to the mess but it will be worth it in the end. Looking forward to seeing pictures. I hope you have a good day...hang in there Janean...this day will get easier in time. Maura ((hugs))
Beautiful, I think I will post a picture of my bathroom today, I think it would fit very well, with your group. Thanks for the reminder, to love what I have!
Hello Janean....I hope you're doing as well as can be expected today.
The bathroom pictures are inspirational indeed....we need a master bath makeover here too!

How pretty. Nothing better than a long lazy bath in a clawfoot tub. Lovely blog.
Ahhhhh, such beautiful bathrooms, but my favorite picture is the last one, with the precious child and bubbles.
You're in my thoughts....
All lovely bathrooms. So many choices. I don't know how I would ever make up my mind.
Hey girl..I know this was a pre-posted post. If and when you are ready for tile questions to be answered..give me a ring on the old e-mail phone..lol Hubbie has been setting tile for 30 years..He used to do all the million dollar homes in the Parade of Homes in San Antonio.
I am still thinking and praying for you and yours..especially today. Hugs from my heart..Cindy from Rick-Rack and Gingham
Beautiful bathrooms! Can't wait to finally redo ours...your photos provide beautiful ideas. Looking forward to seeing your new room!! Dreamy!!!! ~ Angela
Beautiful inspiration. I love the first pic with the gray walls. So very peaceful! Good luck with all of the decisions you will be making.
Just wanted to send you some virtual ((hugs)) today. My heart is praying for you and your family...I hope you are filled with happy memories today.
Those are some gorgeous bathrooms. No I don't know anything about that wallpaper. (still think of you and your family in prayer.)
I'm a fan of the corner soaker tub, the best would be with jacuzzi jets... aaahhh - yes!
Are any of the pics of your bathroom?
Hi Janean,
I would be happy with any of those wonderful bathrooms! I hope that you get the one of your dreams.
hugs

Hi Janean!
My thoughts are still with you!
I can just imagine stepping out of one of those beautiful baths, clean and refreshed, and jumping into my bed - made-up with fresh sheets off of the line!! I love your posts!
Hugs,
Barb
We're about to embark on a bathroom reno and I am very, very worried - the last one took two years!
I have a long wish list, including a beautiful mirror and two basins.
Hi Janean,
My thoughts have been with you and your family, and sending my love to you.
I love all these beautiful bathrooms, so much inspiration and I hope that you get the dream bathroom.
Hugs

Wow wow wow! I love each and every one.

I really like your bathtub photos. The urge to soak for awhile was tempting :) I am thinking about you today. Love you, Kimmie
What beautiful bathrooms. I love the claw footed tubs.
Oh my goodness - I can look at these pictures and just and dream and dream . . . which one are you putting in your cottage?

That last photo is absolutely precious. It reminds me of when I was a little girl and we would sit in one of those huge tubs.
P.S. Love the different bathrooms. It is hard to choose.
