Timeless Style

Let an old beach house speak for itself. Rather than replacing dated fixtures, call attention to them. Porcelain sinks and tubs can be re-glazed for a fresh (and inexpensive) new look.

Idea Spotlight 
If you love a vibrant color but fear that it may upstage the room, paint it on a single wall. When tempered by neutrals, the color should accent rather than overwhelm.
