medical cabinet from 1935 as our bathroom storage.

thanks for looking! and thanks for your helpful feedback when i asked for opinions over the past couple of months! i’d love to know what you think of the final product…

i’d like to shower with plants and surf board…creative use of space :)

man, renovations are a lot of pressure! i’m still hunting for inspiration…and finding too much of it.

i’d probably want to do something like this :)

i especially like the floor and the sink
