Clean and Serene
The finished main bath is elegant and spa-like, with the crowning touch overhead: a wood-and-iron chandelier sourced from a local salvage shop. The Carters had just installed a similar piece in their dining room when they realized how good it would look in their newly remodeled bathroom — so a second shopping trip yielded the same model in a different color.
Before the Remodel
The dark mauve garden tub appeared to suck all the light out of the main bathroom, even though it was located right next to a large window. Even worse, tiles had begun to disintegrate in the surround and the smell of mold had become noticeable. To Christa, the tub always felt old and dirty even when it was clean.

Relaxing Tub
Christa loved the simplicity of this freestanding soaking tub — and the extra feeling of space it would afford because of its relatively small footprint. Because the tub was white, she chose to paint her beadboard trim the same sage color as the walls in order to set off the tub visually, a tip from her interior decorator aunt.
