Thanks!

And the last one for today. Got the philo potted up and hung. It is in the corner above the toilet. We removed a lot from that area that was on the walls to make it look cleaner.

I just LOVE your jungle! Great Job!!!!

You need a sign that says, welcome to the jungle!

Love it, it looks great!

I have a "Welcome to my Garden" sign. Will that do?

I just love it in there. I burn candles constantly and incense and it is so peaceful. Dan put a 25 watt bulb in the overhead fixture and it makes it so serene there in the mornings.

Welcome to my Garden works too!

I do not have that yet. I want music in there and I also want a fountain that I can turn on for more than a couple of minutes.

Yeah, the nature sound machine in the bath is a GREAT idea Loz! But then she may NEVER want to leave! Awww, who cares!

I already never want to leave! I finally got all of the dirt out of the tub and I have an appointment for a nice long soak later on this evening. A bunch of candles and a couple glasses of wine, I might actually sleep well tonight.

Oh yes, that sounds wonderful!

With a small hidden tv and microwave you could live in there! I'd lock myself in for quite a while.

No, not TV, then I would never get Dan outta there.

It has the look of a spa in there Triss....i love it!!!!!

I love it too Triss

Thanks you two. I just added a pot of paperwhites. I had forgotten I got them and found the box of bulbs sprouting. So in a pot they went and are on the counter now.

I just adore your bathroom!!! I can't wait to start having plants in mine! Right now there is no natural light in there, so I am afraid of killing what I put in there....

Wow it looks great Triss!!!! And Yep I spotted the Willys! a must have in the mist of the jungle for sure!!!

Tonya, the kids bathroom is like that too. I would love plants in there as well but it is not gonna happen.

Triss, & Dan, you have done a WONDERFUL job on your bathroom! My husband saw the pics while I was looking & he was saying "wow!" Our bathroom is too small for all that, & you really inspire me to tear out some walls & make a jungle/bathroom!

Jody, do you have light in there? If so then just go for it, no matter the space, a jungle can be achieved!

yeah I have light but not much, and it doesn't get sunny on that side of the house, the north side! And there is tile on the wall so can't put up the trellis like you did,but hmmmmmmmmmm, but I could hang them from the ceiling in there, just close to the window! You are giving me ideas!

You could mount a trellis next to the wall but off the ceiling with a 4x4 on the floor to hold it there as well. And plant hooks in the ceiling work as well. Can you show me a pic of your space?

Hi Triss my usb port isn't working,so can't load any pics yet, but I was thinking of the plant hooks in the ceiling, like you said but don't want anything on the floor, we just redid the floor with the floating wood floor. I could put trellis above the tile the tile is only 3/4 of the way up, then there's this hideous wallpaper I am taking down this summer. I just don't have a lot of space, I use the breakfast nook for all my houseplants. We want to tear out walls & make the bathroom bigger, but don't know when that'll happen!

Oh yes, if you had two braces for the trellis at the top and just above the tile, it could even hang down over the tile. We only have 2 2x2's supporting our trellis. I am working on finding candles that I can attach to the trellis now but have not found much I like so far.

thats sooooo beauitful

compact flourscents and grow lights. work wonders and easy on the power bill!
