    <mainbody>Do you have a couple of rooms upstairs away from everyone that is being used for storage?  Want to do something different and have a place to relax.  I have some ideas that might help you with your new project.

Put a large sliding glass door between the two rooms.  In one corner, two steps up set your extra large tub.  How about add a skylight in the ceiling to let in the daylight during the day and the stars at night.  Don't forget to add mirrors around you tub with lots of candles on the ledge.  Candles are so pretty reflecting off the mirrors.  Maybe you might want more light so put one or two fancy light fixtures on one wall or in the ceiling.

If you have a large bathroom, why not install a fireplace on the opposite side of your glass. A fireplace will add more of a romantic and relaxing sensation to your rooms.  On the ledge add some more candles and maybe put a picture over them to go with your theme.

Always chose a theme before you start your new project.  Having a theme will help you to choose your colors and the mood you want to have when enjoyed your time.

You can also install a large cabinet at the end of your sink. Set a microwave and mini-fridge in it.  You'll need something to keep that wine cold while your relaxing.

Have another space in the extra bathroom.  Set a chair in it to sit while putting on your lotions.  You'll want a lot of lotions and oils along with some smelly bubbles to help you relax and set the mood you are in.  Remember they should all be the same scent so that the smells all drift from one room to the next.

When choosing your carpet be sure to get a natural color you might want to chance you color later on and not the carpet.  The sink, counter, stool and tub should all match too but try not to have the same colors as your flooring.  To much of one color will make the your room dull and not exciting to be in.  It will also make you depressed sometimes if everything is the same color.  So, mix and match.  When choosing your tile make sure it is small maybe 1x1.  The small the tile the less change you have of slipping when getting out of the tub and down the steps.  

Like to read and relax at the same time.  Set a basket near the chair and lay some outdated magazines in it.  Get yourself a bath pillow to fit one end of the tub and a magazine pour in the bubble with a glass of wine and read.  Sound cozy doesn't it.

Be creative when organizing your new bathroom.  Set a plant on a stand or even one corner of your tub.  With the skylights, they will get enough sunlight and the moisture is good for them too.

Have more space and don't know what to do with it.  Put a towel rack in to put those entire special and fancy towel and washcloths you have in the cupboard.  Fancy towels always make a person feel special along with all the oils and bubbles.

Once you have all your bath accessories organized and put away get that fancy and comfortable sleepwear you've always wanted and use it only when your in your own special rooms.  

Putting lotion on and your new sleepwear will make the final relaxation come to and you can then sit back and enjoy the new you.</mainbody>

    <mainbody>Choosing bathroom accessories such as knobs and robe hooks is not easy. You have a selection from Dove, Musa, Antique, Aranjeuz, Austin, Barcelona, Cabin, Belvedere, Cameo, Channel, Cannes, Catalina, Chenille and more to select. City Temple, Contessa, Cosmopolitan, Dominic, Designer, Drop and Elizabeth created a nice line of knobs and robe hooks as well. 

When choosing knobs and hooks your best bet is to reduce your options. For instance, do you like gold? Do you like gold combined with chrome? Would your prefer decorative styles? Do like the mirror look? Considering your taste, style etc can help you narrow down your choice. 

In addition, you want to consider your bathroom. Do you have a country setting? Do you have a regal bath? Is your bath Victorian Style? Are you purchasing knobs and hooks for a kid bathroom? What colors and patterns are in your bathroom?

If you have regal or master bathroom you may like the gold knobs and hooks. Jas has a nice line of knobs and hooks. Jas made the creative gold robe hooks, which go well with a variety of colors. You might have a wall mirror, glass cub, hooks, shelves, and racks in the background of your bath area. In this instance, I would reconsider the gold, unless you have gold trimmings around your bathroom accessories. 

If you have gold trimmings, the gold will look great. If you do not have gold trimmings, you may want to add a few other bathroom items. For instance, you can purchase gold bath bars, gold-trimmed holders made of glass, gold and glass soap dish, bath tissue holders, vanity glass shelves trimmed in gold and so on. Toss in a gold towel ring and you are off to a good start. 

How do I choose knobs and hooks for antique bathrooms? 
If you have an antique environment, you may like Pacifica's line of bathroom accessories. Antique shades, tones, etc could benefit from the oil rub bronze hooks. Satin nickel will also go well in antique bathrooms. Toss in a Bronze Oil Rub ring, antique white soap dish and toothbrush holder, and perhaps a vanity glass mirror and there you have it. 

The rustic gold are nice items that go well in antique environments. The Antique Bronze Burn shades are nice as well. Toss in a rustic, bronze, or antique vanity glass shelf and your patterns will blend well. In addition, you can add a bath tissue holder; towel ring/bar and you are off to enhance your antique bathroom. 

Aranjeuz makes a nice line of products, which you could blend in antique regions. It depends on your style, yet you could blend the gold trim with chrome polish hooks to set off an antique atmosphere. The brush nickel mixed with gold is nice as well. 

How do I choose modern patterns and colors? 
Dominic collections have a nice selection of hooks. You may like the chrome polished items designed by German crafters. Wind has a nice selection of modern designs as well. 

How do I choose bathroom accessories for Victorian baths?
Victorian style baths often benefit from Satin Nickel shades, brass and chrome polish, and so on. Victorian style is designed to bring home legends of the past. Victorian also honors the traditional patterns. Most Victorian bathrooms can benefit from the shades listed, as well as other items that offset porcelain. If you have a Victorian bath, it's likely you have porcelain tubs and sinks, which you want to match the colors when searching for bathroom accessories.</mainbody>

    <mainbody>Are you married and often find it a hassle for you and your mate to share the same mirror? Do you find your self in the bathroom at the same time, getting ready for work as your mate? If so, then you may want to consider grooming mirrors to accommodate you and your mate. How do I find grooming mirrors? You can find grooming mirrors at any department store, general stores, etc. Ultimately you can go online and find a wide array of grooming mirrors. How do I choose grooming mirrors? It depends on your style. IF you prefer swivel lit tilted mirrors for personal use, then you might enjoy Nova series. The mirrors mount on the wall, which provides you space and accessibility. You can use the mirrors while standing. The mirrors will clear clutter from your countertops. The mirrors are great as well, since you can purchase non-fog mirrors, which means if your mate steps out of the shower you can continue grooming without worrying about steam. The mirrors are attractive. When you put on make up or shave, in common mirrors you may miss areas. In public, you are unaware of the faults. With Nova lit mirrors and non-fog units, you can relax, since you can put on your makeup or shave without worrying about missing spots. The elegant mirrors include the single/dual arm series, which provide you versatile features, such as the slide modes. You can adjust the mirror to any height you choose. Nova has included a magnifier into its non-fog mirrors, which are also free of image distortion. How do I choose size? The mirrors are around 10 inches in diameter. Still, the mirrors offer you shadow-free, incandescent, and well-rounded lighting to groom. The mirrors are stylish. The rims and arms are made of brass. Trimming is also made of brass. The trim, rims, arms, etc is complimented as well by polished chrome, or you can choose brush nickel finishing. 

How do I choose colors? 
It depends on your style. The mirror mentioned in this article includes the almond and white houses. Again, you can choose brass finish, chrome, nickel, etc. 

How does the mirror light up? 
The mirror runs from a standard 110 to 120-voltage battery. How do I find mirrors that do not use batteries? The mirrors operate from batteries, yet you can remove the power supply extension and install the unit by hard-wiring it to your electric outlet. How much do the mirrors cost? 
It depends where you shop. Online you can find the mirrors from very cheap and up. You may shop other areas online and find bargains. Look for coupons, since it will save you money. 

What if I prefer another style? You can choose the Pedestal Lit Vanity Mirrors, or other mirrors of choice. You have a wide array of choices. How much do the Vanity mirrors cost? It depends where you shop, however quality will play a big part. You have a choice of solid brass, brush nickel with white house, clear coat/white, and the polished chromes. Can I hardwire the Vanity mirrors? 
You will need to shop around for mirrors that allow you to hardwire them. Grooming mirrors, such as the Vanities made by Nova does not always sell hardwired mirrors. How do the mirrors look?
It depends on your choice, however you can choose the light pedals, which are made of brass. The coating is protected. You also have the option of choosing clear coat finish, aluminum house with pure brass and so forth. The gold trimming is my favorite, but it is up to you.</mainbody>

    <mainbody>Imagine a room filled with berry red walls with compliments of motif poppy and stylish slipcovers to offset your quaint bathroom. Throw in a few layered fabrics, such as curtains for your shower to enhance the room. Floral shower curtains are idea for quaint baths designed in berry red wall designs. 

How to choose bathroom accessories:
Choosing bathroom accessories is easy if you have your design laid out. Artisans often recommend that you make up a blue print before re-designing your bath even if you are adding bathroom accessories. You want to scope out the area first to consider what accessories would look best in your area. 

For quaint baths, you want to keep in mind that you are choosing bathroom accessories for old-fashioned or picturesque rooms. Of course, you want to choose charming items, yet you want to keep it on the traditional level. Sometimes traditional rooms require a twist of odd and peculiar items that make it appealing to the eye. When designing quaint environments, why not consider braided rugs? 

How to choose braided rugs: 
Braided rugs include the handcrafted rugs made from 'sweatshirt fleece.' The rugs are easy to make, otherwise you can find the rugs in any craft store. 

How are the rugs made? 
From narrow pieces of wool: You can use soft fleece from sweatshirts to make the wool. Choose the high-fiber cottons, since the material is easy washed. In addition, the rugs absorb better than other materials. To create traditional, try using a variety of fibers. 

How do I choose materials? 
You will need fleece from sweatshirts to create your braid. Choose a variety of colors, unless you prefer plain. You will also need a sewers mat and a pair of rotary cutters, as well as thread designed to hold up to heavy material. In addition, you will need Braidkin, or similar lacers. 

How do I choose the needle? 
You should consider the large-eye needles, such as the craft needles with round and blunted ends. You will need common craft thread and needles as well. 

Do I need anything else to finish the rug? 
Sure, you will need clamps to hold your fabric in place. In addition, you will need clothespins, which you can use to secure the ends of your braided rug while adding lace. The last item you will need is a non-slip mat/pad. You want to slip the pad beneath the rug once you are finished. 

How do I get started? 
Getting started is easy. You merely cut 2-inches into the fleece, and strip it transversely over the width of the material. Take 2 strips of the fabric and bring them together, bringing your fleeces in union, and on the bias begin stitching. You will need to trim the seams making allowances at certain lengths, depending on your volume. To open the seam, use your fingers and press. At the raw edges of our material, fold it until it meets with the middle region and stretch our strip until it faintly rolls the edges inwardly. At the edges, fold, bringing your 3rd strip to the middle of the cloth and fold it again in half. Make sure the sides are open toward the right of the fabric. Next, at your strip, insert your needle and thread, layering it until the strips join, starting again with the first step, leave seam allowances, and fold the strips to join in half. Enclose the end of your third strip, and finish by stitching the rug together. Now you have the bathroom accessories of the century created by your own hands.</mainbody>
