When I renovated my 1950s bathroom, you can bet that I sweated the small stuff. In this video — the second in my blue bathroom series — I talk about some of the design details that came out pretty darn well.

Pam’s Blue Bathroom — my first video!

Great videos! LOL, I sweat the small stuff, too, Pam, so you’re not alone!
I think your bathroom turned out very, very well and I really liked the way the wallpaper “frames” the window.
Looks really great! Love that the site has video.
Also I love the suggestion about removing the suction cup and screwing that holder into the wall. Clever idea.
Really great bathroom, Pam. Great video, too! Who makes the shower hardware, please? It’s just what I need for my blue bathroom retrovation.
Genjenn, the shower hardware is basic Moen. Simple. Suits the unpretentious mid mod bathroom just fine.
Looks great, Pam! In our bathroom reno, we put in an exhaust fan, too, we found a super-quiet, moisture-sensing fan from Braun that we just LOVE. It turns on when it senses moisture, which I love because you (or your guests or your husband or…) can’t forget to turn it on!
ooh, ooh, ooh!!! i just added to my bath reno list: light/fan over shower!
