Redesigning the Loo...

My restrooms are nice enough for now but I aspire to transform them into something of the following pictures.  Time is definitely on my side, but the pocketbook needs some improving before I can get started. Aaaaaaah....dreaming already.

I like the touch the chandelier gives to the room, and I've

always been a fan of the checkered floors.  I like how they

have incorporated it into an elegant room.

White...but not plain by any means.

The subway tiles give it a sleekness and the hint of blue

in the glass doors give just the right touch.

So cozy

I like the arched window and shutter in 

this pic.  I'm not a fan of the rug but the feel

of the room is still enticing.

What movies take you away to that special place?

Do you ever just put on a movie that you've seen about a million times, but the scenery and story just take you away from your sofa off to that magical place for about 2 hours?  I do this all of the time with a few select movies.  Just watching them relaxes me.

I don't get the chance to do it as often as I'd like to of course, but when I do, it makes me happier.  Is this the norm?  Not all movies do this for me.  Just a handful.

The Notebook is one of them.  The scenery and costume design in this movie make you feel as if you are actually there.  I love to escape into that movie every chance I can get.  Which ones do it for you?

I should mention that I love the house he built for her ; )
