Ideas for rustic bathrooms from Oliver Crick

Bathroom Display Shelf

Add shelving to your powder room to hold toiletries that are pretty. Remove the back of an old wine crate or wooden box. Make ledges to fit in the carton, then add a bit of glamor by fastening a gilded frame onto the very front of the unit. For an antique finish, spray-paint with Krylon Crystal Color.

Tips on Cast Iron Tubs

Cast-iron reproduction baths seem authentically old-fashioned, and also you may generally paint the exterior to match your bathroom's decor. Expect costs to run up to several thousand dollars. Cast iron baths can weigh nearly 1,000 pounds when filled with water, so before you purchase, consult a contractor experienced in installing this sort of bath to make sure that your floor can support the weight.

Antique Details Add Distinction

An absence of built-in cabinetry takes the theme of Old World charm into the bathroom. For storage, an armoire lets contents respire — a big plus in a humid room. A small sterling silver Edwardian purse dangles from the door handle.

Vintage Touches

Stuff of various pedigrees, like an old, oxidized faucet and a gilded mirror frame, harmonize nicely.

Shower Tiles

Regrout the place, in case your tile is fine but the grout is discolored or damaged. Remember that if tile is bulging or leaking, there might be more serious problems underneath. In this case, consult with a contractor. You might need to replace the tile.

Copper Bathtub

Homeowners found the gleaming copper bathtub in the master bath on eBay.

Shaving Bowl

An old shaving bowl from Homer Laughlin was set into a barley table to form a sink in the downstairs bathroom; the plumbing is concealed by a table skirt made from heirloom linens.

Shop Smart

This sink was made even more appealing by its first working faucets with porcelain knobs. To source them after purchase would have been hard, time-consuming, and expensive.

Save with Salvage

The pedestal sink that is salvaged was a lucky find at an antiques store in town — as well as a deal at $75. It provided the ideal partner to the first bathtub of the home's. Pedestal sinks are in abundance, but quality changes. Expect to pay from $60 to as much as $2,000 for an immaculate classic case.
