Let's take a look at the Farmhouse bathroom...

 Thank you all so much for your fantastic feedback and ideas regarding La Maisonnette bathroom. 

It was all very helpful and I'm still thinking things over and reading your suggestions again and again. 

Here are some pics of the Farmhouse bathroom. 

It's become one of my favourite rooms, which is funny because I don't care much about real life bathrooms at all. 

Since I last showed you this room (years ago I know!) I've moved the linen cupboard from the hallway - where it could only be seen through a window -  into the bathroom.

Here's the vintage lavabo on the left wall, I've recessed it into the wall just because I wanted some grungy tilework in there. Ha!

I saw a real life bath with an old board across it like that...some things just scream out to be made in miniature.

I'd seen pictures of vintage Hungarian baby baths on the web. I don't know why they're always Hungarian! 

Then when I was on holiday here in New Zealand a couple of summers ago I saw one in an antique shop in a tiny country town.

Of course I had to make a mini one.

That laundry basket is one of the wonkiest things I've ever made. It's very flexible! 

Now those of you who have keen observation skills may have noticed something missing in this bathroom...

'Oh, yes!' I hear you say 'The toilet'...

I must have something against toilets I guess. The loo in here always annoyed me so I just removed it. So far no one has asked where it is. But I'm going to pretend it's under the stairs in the hallway. One day I'll make a door in the hallway and say that's where it is! Problem solved!!!

And for those of you who asked about putting the loo on the other wall in the Maisonnette. 

I have tried it there. It is an option as there's just enough room for it...

but then I thought too much about the pipework. LOL!!!

Decades I ago I lived in a very old building in the city and the loo was outside (fun times!!)...so those of you who suggested that...it's not a bad idea!!!

And those of you who suggested I stop thinking about it, for now that's what I'll do. 

So next weeks blog post - I promise no bathrooms.

Have a fun week!

The other side of the bathroom door...the hidden hallway

Here's the hallway I've created at the other end of the old bathroom.

I bought the wallpaper with tiny chairs on it when I went to visit Kim in America.

(Yes, I know the window trim is falling off in some of the pics. But if I stop to take new pics this will never get posted!) 

You only get a little glimpse of the linen cupboard through the bathroom door.

 I've always wanted to build a linen cupboard and the hallway seemed the perfect space to create one.

The doorway beside the cupboard is the entrance to the stairs up to the third level.

 The linen cupboard won't really be able to be seen unless you look through the window from the outside...and even then you need to pull the window out to see it properly - which is why the window trim keeps falling off!

Still room to add a few more things in there!

I just have a 'thing' for pictures on glass at the moment. 

When I found the chair picture on the Graphics Fairy site I couldn't resist adding it to the glass to go with the wallpaper.

Sabiha made the window cleaning supplies and I made the tin basket to put them in. 

Sylvia made the wooden box.

Maybe it's still a bit too tidy...yes, definitely room for more in there!
