Welcome to the channel, I'm Garrett! I am formally educated with a degree in interior design. My husband and I are also real estate investors. Our videos cover many styles (not just my own), and everything from ultra luxury to the budget friendly design. We want you to have a good time watching our videos while learning a great deal of useful, and practical information.

As usual, detailed, professional advice that genuinely makes sense. I LEARN from you beyond the advice in each video. TY :) :) :)
Happy to help!
Agreed. He seriously KNOWS his stuff!!

If you want your towel to dry thoroughly, the bar is the only choice. It is spread out like on a clothes line. Bunched up towels take longer to dry and can potentially get moldy.
Voice of experience: Never...ever... wallpaper a ceiling. Scraping it off later is a *nightmare.* Can cause divorce.
Love your videos Garrett!
Thanks for sharing, and thank you for watching and supporting the channel by subscribing!
I use robes and turbans so hooks but bars are much better for drying it’s true … so i use both really
“Can cause divorce” LMAO so true!
I had to pay an expert to remove wallpaper from all walls AND ceiling from a house I just bought…. It was indeed a nightmare. It took him two days, closed up in a small powder bathroom with our Texas heat….
It’s now clear. He had to mud the walls to make up for the rips in sheet rock, then do a level 5 finish, smooth as glass.
My job will be to paint the walls, can’t wait lol 😂
I dry my towel in the drier
Lol 😂
Towel hook vs towel bar? Ditch both and get a towel warmer! HEAVEN.
I love that you acknowledged the needs of handicapped individuals and young children!

Glass shower enclosures are hard to keep clean, impossible to keep spot free. Fabric is lovely. Not changing on that one, dude. I’m the one who does the cleaning.
I like a shower curtain. I have high ceilings so I sew my own to make them fuller and longer. I think they add personality to a bathroom and I don’t need a lot of accessories to achieve that.
I bought a single handle Kohler bathroom faucet about 15 or 20 years ago and honestly it's the best thing I ever did, despite being so expensive at the time. It's timeless and I appreciate it every time I use it. At that time I also bought a one piece sink and countertop in porcelain, which I'm not sure you can even get anymore. It's seamless, has room for the waterpik and so on, and still is beautiful and shiny, and being on a sleek wood cabinet not too plain.
Water spots. Glass doors are high maintenance. We're lazy.
We have a clear, embossed shower curtain and a shower curtain liner. It's pulled to the side when not showering and lets light through when showering. And the liner can be thrown in the washer.
Oh and we sling our towels over the shower curtain bar to dry then shove them through a towel ring.
We're heathens, what can I say
It takes only a few seconds to squeegee the shower doors - and a few more to sqeegee the tiles - after each shower which is less work than washing shower curtains and/or the tiles.
"Loud tile" is the reason white is popular. When choosing colors for surfaces that are not easily changed out - like bathroom tile floors and walls, showers, etc - the simpler and more neutral, the better. You can then add pops of color through accessories or other items that can be changed out when you're over the design statement.
I’m totally #teamhooks. No one in this house (besides me, of course) seems to understand how towel bars work, so hooks allow me to not be the towel police. They’re my domestic tranquility secret weapon.
Thanks for sharing, and thank you for watching and supporting our channel by subscribing!
Having four kids I just switched to hooks two years ago. So much YES
A compromise I did on a clear glass shower door was to etch it from about armpit height down to mid-thigh height. Just made it 'obscure' glass. This hides the soap and shampoos (and most of you!), but allows you to see in and notice the nice shower floor and parts of the walls (which also makes a small bathroom look its full size), and allows two persons in the bathroom to see each other. I also like a recessed light over the shower stall or bathtub enclosure. When you don't have a light up there the shower area is just a dark part of the bathroom and visibility is reduced in the shower area.

I can't get my glass shower doors clean of water spots! In the future my plan is to get the bottom half etched - who really needs to see the nasty bits anyway!
There are also some really nice looking window films that can be applied (found one site that has film that looks remarkably like leaded glass) - and if you ever want to change it out to something else, you can. I have one "opaque" window - I really wish I'd used a film. . . (I have window film on my garage door windows.)
Great idea. Thank you
Great idea!
Remember those 5 piece matching bathroom rug sets ( pink shag) that carpeted our toilet seat, floor and the toilet tank top?! Some grandmas still have ‘em!
😂
I was discussing renovating the bathroom with my mom last time. One of my fears is slipping and falling in the bathroom. My parents are getting older, while me and my siblings are pretty accident-prone, so anti-skid tiles in bathroom would be an absolute must.
I think that’s a great idea in your situation. Safety first! 😀😀😀
I LOVE it that you show and discuss small spaces. I live in a lovely old home, but these old homes have small kitchens and bathrooms so there’s not much we can do about that. Your ideas are awesome, Garrett!
Honestly, i feel like with time, the all- grey bathroom will stand as timeless. It's a neutral option to white, and can be elevated and taken in many style directions. Personally, the biggest mistake I see too often is a pedestal sink in a tiny, main bathroom with open shelving or no shelves. People will opt for having the main bathroom look classy or minimal, and neglect the day to day needs of the family. Cue the clutter and personal products _everywhere_ and suddenly your chic bathroom looks much worse than having a clunky, outdated cabinet sink.
@@crosslink1493 Agree! I'm having a secondary bathroom done with gray tile and gray walls, but the vanity, tub, baseboards, ceiling - all white.
@@k.stacey7389 wtf are you on??? Grey is a color. Period.🙄 You're clearly not a tiny bit educated in color theory, as no interior designer, on YT, or an art class ever (I'm an artist professionally, college educated) has said anything remotely as ignorant as this about the color grey. Educate yourself, you're looking really dumb right now. And if you do a simple Google search for "prisons around the world", you see tons of color on walls, so clearly, you're just as ignorant as I thought🤣😆😂. But thanks for letting me laugh at you! 🤡🤣😆😆
I agree that clutter is the #1 way to make your home look bad!
@@dianeosgood6594 Omg your comment just made me think of those fancy floating vanity sinks, but with pipes showing! 😂🤣 I don't think that would look good even in an industrial style bathroom. I agree, the vanity cabinet always works. But i also enjoy the bathroom armoire, for a larger space.
@@mulliganstew72 moment of silence for Mimi's sink choices😰..... We're here for you.😓
I don’t like sliding shower doors, would rather have a shower curtain if you have a bathtub/shower combination. If you have a step in shower with a floor to ceiling door, that’s definitely the way to go. Great advice Garrett.
Thanks so much!
Yes, the sliding type doors can be a pain to keep clean enough. A curtain is okay if it's plain coloured and gets washed frequently ;)
Great video! I prefer the towel bar because the hook places the towel too close to the door or wall, and the moisture can cause damage.
Have had hooks in the bathroom in my last 3 homes…… It actually depends on the hook you choose.
Clean and modern grey colour of tile everywhere with chrome and white can me made a beautiful space by putting plants... I have orchids... and accessories in a bamboo. Contemporary/Modern/Clean but bring in nature.
Also. A heated towel rack is the best functional luxury. 🥰
I LOVE your idea to paint the ceiling in a small bathroom! Wonderful idea!!!
We have had a heated towel rack for a long time, and that’s my favorite. After that the towel bar, the hook, and last place takes the towel ring, because nothing ever really dries on these things. Mistakes that I made IMO was to have a shower with just a glass partition and no door. While it looks awesome, it’s really cold. Another thing I wouldn’t do again is a sliding barn-style shower door. There is a gap below on the side that moves, so don’t even think about giving your dogs a bath in there, because the bathroom will get flooded. Also, there is an overlap in the middle that’s impossible to clean. You absolutely can’t get in. And since the width is usually not exact but a range, the narrower your shower is, the narrower the opening will be. Less than half for sure. For big waisted people that can get dicey even with a 48” shower. Just things to consider, but my one real pet peeve is clutter, and for me a huge mistake is not having enough drawers in a vanity. My favorite vanities are the ones with not only 3-4 drawers down the middle or to the side, but drawers at the bottom below the sinks. That’s storage space that goes to waste in all other types of vanities.
Barn style shower doors now have an L shaped bottom trim. Easy to clean and doesn't let water out. There is also a U shaped vertical section on either side for the doors to rest in, so there is no issues of water leaving the shower/tub area, even with a dog. Barn style doors are also designed for taller people.
@@EvelynM-vlogs Thank you for telling me that! We installed ours because we didn’t want to hit our heads every time we went in, but were otherwise really disappointed.
We have sliding doors on our shower and where they meet in the middle can only be cleaned by taking off the doors. But, it's not too hard do that. I can tell you RainX, the solution they use to make water on a car window bead up, is a GODSEND for keeping shower doors clean.
@@Print229 Barn doors have a 1-1/2" gap between them. There is a narrower section where the wide track at the top is, that gap is 3/8" I just measured both). Both these gaps make it so much easier to clean than a regular glass slider.
I really like the way that you frequently mention practicality, accessibility, and affordability
That’s interesting, the glass over the tub, never thought of that, it looks nice
My bathroom had rectangles galore (window, counter, cabinets, etc). I brought in a beautiful round mirror and wow! Adds so much appeal. I’m tempted to paint my ceiling 🤔 great idea! Oh, towel bar allows for better aeration in my opinion.
You covered every possible consideration in this video, Garrett! I have both towel bars for looks, and hooks for convenience. (Towels do dry better on the bars.) I love your tips for warming up the space. If people can't afford painting, flooring or rugs, I have found that baskets, new towels, warmer lighting, and artwork blending cool and warmer colors can do the same! My remodeling contractor wanted to use 1-hole, 1-handle faucets and grey tiles, which would have been cheaper and easier for him, and now I'm glad I said no! Thank you for addressing accessibility issues, too. Bathrooms are often some of the first places in a home requiring accessibility modifications over time, and there are ways to make even these LOVELY! Can't wait for the studio reveal!!! 🤗 Colleen
Glad you enjoyed the video Colleen! Thanks for sharing, :)
Ahhhh, Contractors!!! I have had that experience also. We remodeled our whole house after a hurricane storm surge in 1995. The plumber said I had to use a certain bath plumbing fixture manufacturer....because he like it best. Grrrr. I agreed and have been ticked off at the plumber and myself ever since. This year we are building a brand new home on our lot because of substantial damage from another hurricane. This time, my INTERIOR DESIGNER with whom I have been working since 2010, is helping with EVERYTHING!!! No easy way out for the subcontractors! It will be her way or the highway!!!!
Contractors think we're stupid... They ALWAYS suggest (or DO, without even suggesting) what's cheaper and easier for them... And even when we're telling them what we want, we need to be there to check... I find it very difficult, as a woman, to deal with them: They hate smart questions and are misogynists. 😤
@@celestebenson3519 good luck with your project, Celeste! It sounds like you're in great hands now!
The bathroom photo with the decor all around the toilet, at the same height actually made me a little queasy, never, ever, never should anything, aside from a plunger and the toilet scrubber, be level with the toilet, just yuck🤢 Another fantastic video, thank you as always for your excellent advice, love your content ❤️
Awesome tip about mixing natural stone with faux! I never thought about that!
Hooks vs towel bars: Why not both? Our bathroom was very narrow, you couldn't have a towel bar without bumping into it, and the towels dried just fine on hooks on the back of the door. I think it depends on your climate... If you're in a humid place it's a problem, but if the air is pretty dry then a hook is more efficient imo. Fwiw I also don't reuse towels, I use hand towels for my non hair wash days. In our current bathroom there's only hooks but I'll be adding a towel warmer.
*Team Small Gray Bathroom* . I warmed up my small gray and white bathroom with Mid-tone wood decor and a jute runner for a bath mat. I prefer a shower curtain over a glass doors as is just easy to keep clean and change out. I have a peg rail for towels. My space would look too clutter with bars.
I’m obsessed with the Tarkay behind you. Love the woman in green!
Thanks so much!
Please keep saving the world!!! Love❤️. We count on you.
I don't blame you, I don't reuse towels, I like a hook for robes, I like towel bars or circles for towels. The thing with bars is you HAVE to put the towels on correctly, the men in my house are lazy, which is why I went with circle bars.
Garrett I love how you are giving great advice to people of all budgets.
Thanks for watching, and supporting the channel by subscribing!
Loved your video and can't wait to see your studio reveal! I will share a personal story. We started out with towel bars; however, me being Little Mrs. Fussy could not deal with how my husband hung his towel over the bar. It was always crooked! To solve this dilemma I decided to hang hooks on the back of the bathroom door. I went one step further and sewed plastic rings on the edge of the towel in the middle. This way all he has to do is put the ring on the hook. It was truly a marriage saver. Well maybe it wasn't that bad, but believe me, it wasn't good. Thanks for all your wonderful videos. I have learned so much.
Thanks so much! It's great to have a supporter like you in our subscriber family.:)
Thanks, Garrett for an excellent video! Regarding hooks vs bars, I use both. They serve different purposes. I have a hook outside the shower stall in my master ensuite on which to hang a bath towel for easy accessibility when emerging from the shower, and bars at either end of my tub enclosure on which to drape used bath towels to dry. I also use towel rings in this bathroom, in the WC, where I have installed a small hand sink, as well as another beside the washlet toilet. A free-standing towel holder sits between the sinks on the vanity. All the bathroom accessories, including faucets and taps, (and the vanity knobs) are from the same series, in satin brass, and are decorative elements in the room. About mixing stone and “fake stone”: in another bathroom, I chose a beautiful, figured creamy marble for the floor, walls, tub surround and vanity. I found mosaic tile in the same marble for the floor, a smaller, but identical marble mosaic for the shower floor, 12” x 24” natural marble tiles for the walls, slabs of the same marble for the counter and surround, and even a chair rail and baseboard in the identical marble. Wouldn’t you know, after the countertop was fabricated and the mosaics and trims purchased, it turned out the marble supplier never had the wall tiles! Luckily, Porcelanosa has a 24” x 24” porcelain tile that mimics the marble but is more subtle. It has the identical background colour. With all the other marble in the room in different shapes, the wall tiles blend in without appearing artificial. And it was half price!
Great advice! Since we are dealing with a new build, we made one bathroom (master bath) with a freestanding tub and the other with a walk-in shower with glass doors. I wanted the tub bathroom to feel cozy, so it’s in darker colors with warm lighting. The other bathroom is a little lighter with rustic elements - a mirror with a rough wood frame, a stone basin sink, and pebble floor in the shower. Quirky but I love it. I’m team towel hooks, but after reading comments I’m going to look into getting a towel warmer.
Thanks so much! The bathroom sounds a great! I love a freestanding tube. 😊😊😊
We renovated our bathrooms two years ago and we made some of your mistakes. The jumping off point for our main bathroom was beautiful handmade big-patterned floor tiles. Because they were the end run of tiles made for the Bellagio hotel in Las Vegas we were able to get them at an affordable price. We used a similar pattern for our guest bath for continuity. The tiles may look dated in the future, but for now I love them. We also used the colours from a shower curtain as inspiration for our guest bath. I think both bathrooms look great. In the towel bar vs hook debate, we chose to put both in and we do like them.
Hooks all the way. I've never had a problem with towels drying. Also would love the loud tiles, I can't imagine ever getting tired of them.
Towel bar is lovely when everyone has their own bathroom. I am fortunate to have my own bathroom, so it's all good. But when kids visit, I wish I had a bunch of hooks. (We do use towels more than once.) Thank you Garrett for another useful video, I am always looking forward to the next one of your videos! Oh, and the glass door vs. curtain debate: each has its merits. Examples you'd shown would or do look ridiculous with a curtain, you are right. I lived 5 years with glass doors installed on a builder-grade bath and it was a nightmare: cleaning the glass was a full-time job (if you have kids and/or your water has a lot of calcium - forget it, life's too short), cleaning the tub was its own kind of yoga, then the silicone seal around the glass started discoloring after 2-3 years, so I just went for a curtain in my next home. Just toss it in the laundry and it's clean.
Towel bar. There are beautiful towels that can be seen before being used.
Thank you so much for bringing up accessibility!
I love a towel warmer on the wall instead of a bar. I have one next to the shower. It fits two towels although there are larger ones. Next best thing after getting the towel straight from the dryer.
❤❤❤❤❤ fresh warm towels - heaven!
I absolutely loved your recent episode on unpopular a design ideas that you love. You put your finger on a feeling I’ve had my whole life about traditional recliners. Loved your comments. It was fabulous.!
Thanks so much Nina! Glad you are enjoying. 😊😊😊
Here's why I have a shower curtain: I'm doing my main bathroom in stages. The ugly jetted tub with 80's fixtures and grab-bar is the last stage. The former glass door was hideous, so damaged by soft-water residue and marred by (again '80's) aluminum framing, that we removed it, covered the tub (oh, I forgot to also mention the horrid, griege tiles some with a weird, gnarled relief that surrounded the tub) space with a curtain. Thank God for a curtain covering up that whole tub space mess until next year when we can afford to replace with a delicious tub, delightful tile and desirable glass enclosure.
Loved your advice - thanks Garrett. You truly are tres chic!
Thanks so much Glenys! Always nice to hear from you, and so glad you part of our subscriber family. :)
We use a heated towel rack (bars) in our master bath, and small hooks in the guest bath.
Perfect timing 🧡 planning my bathroom remodel.
So glad!
I LOVE how expressive and honest you are. You have excellent taste and bring so many great points to light for simple and high end interests! It's taken me a long time to find you... thanks for sharing your passions
Wow, thank you!
I’ve only seen 2 of your videos as of yet but I love you already! Subbed! More power to you and your channel. Much love! ♥️
Welcome to the channel Liz and Chelle! It’s great to have you both as very valued members of our subscriber family. I’m glad you are enjoying the content. Much more to come! Btw, new video today Sunday at 10am Pacific Standard Time.
😁😁😁
This was very helpful! Thank you Garrett!
You're so welcome!
About 6 years ago we switched from towel bars (something I grew up with and used my whole life), to hooks, and we really love the hooks (there are hooks available that fit every style/taste!) No problem at all with the towels drying properly, and when my kids were younger that absolutely solved the problem of towels just stuffed onto a bar haphazardly. To my eye if the towels one uses are pretty they look just as good hanging on a hook as they do hanging on a bar, although our house has always had a more casual, lived in vibe as opposed to being fussy or high style. So hooks for the win for me :)
Your channel is great for practicality. Function first then refining the form. Great!
Perfect timing! I'm getting ready to remodel my bathroom. I have a towel bar but out of sheer laziness, I also put a hook over the shower curtain rod. It's a decorative over the door hook. I know, I know! I hear you! 😏
Perfect timing! Love this channel
Awesome! Thank you!
I love watching your videos! You are so awesome and knowledgeable.
Thanks so much Leslie, and thank you for watching, and supporting our channel by

This is Super helpful! Thank you!!
You're so welcome!
I'm moving tomorrow and this is perfect timing as the main bathroom is the first project!
Great video. We are getting ready to renovate our bathroom and I love how you explain the ins and outs of the does and don'ts.
Awesome! Thank you!
OMGGGGG. So glad you brought up the grey. Flippers love to make the whole house grey and I hate it. Why would you want to live in a metal box!? 🤮. Especially the floors because they aren’t easy to change. Grey flooring is awful.
Great video!
I prefer the towel bar because towels dry better. I do like the convenience of a hook to hold my dry ones.
THANK YOU DEAR GARRETT, WE ARE JUST IN THE TIME TO RENOVATE OUR BATHROOM AND I DIDNT KOWN FROM
WHERE TO START, ..... NOW I KNOW. GRACIAS LE CHIC !!!
You are very welcome!😀😀😀
I am changing my mirrors to have lights around them as well as lighting over I like light in a bathroom, this is where I put on my makeup.
Thank you for sharing this video ♥️
You are very welcome!😀😀😀
My experience is too much grey is like too much brown; it eventually ultimately feels dingy or even dirty in the long run.
If people have a shower/tub combo or a large shower with a smaller entrance door so shower is sort of hidden (which I personally love), then I would suggest using a second shower or small curtain rod somewhere above the tub, behind the main curtain rod. You can hang your towels on there and also if you have to hand wash something or have wet swimsuits, you can hang it on the rod above the tub to dry. Another bonus is your towels will be out of site. Towel rod in main area of bathroom for decorative towels only.
I do this, it's great for drying damp items that I don't want to put in the hamper
Everything you say makes so much sense!!!
Another great video Garrett! I'm definitely going to paint the ceiling in my little powder room a fun color! Such a great idea!!!!
Sounds great!
The ceiling paint is such a good idea 😍🥰😍🥰
loved the video! and to answer your question, I use both. it depends on the space I guess. one bathroom has a hook and the other a towel bar. both work well. However, I live in the mojave desert, so I don't have drying issues, not even in winter. It's hot and very, very dry. I've never actually seen mold.
Another awesome video!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Dear Garrett, thank you for your beautiful advice. I love your atention for language and text. I can see the amount of effort you put into everything.
Thanks, and thank you for watching and subscribing to the channel. :)
Loved your shower curtain comments.....my thoughts exactly! 😄Would always include glass shower doors in a bathroom reno budget.....completely worth it even if you have to go a little basic on tile to compensate. Must have 2 towel bars. I think towels dry better when spread out but I always include a hook for robes as well. Your advice is so practical as well as inspiring
Thanks so much!
Thank you for this channel! I enjoy it an get so much out of it! From confirmation to eye opening experience!!!!!!!
Lol, you’re great. Keep up the amazing work!
You are so welcome! I’m glad you are enjoying. Much more to come. Please take a moment to support the channel if you haven’t already, and join our subscriber family. 😊😊😊.
Guilty of putting shower curtains up. Even in front of my gorgeous glass enclosures. I agree Garrett it doesn’t look good please suggest a fix… the reason I did this is because I have two bathrooms for the six of us in our rental while our home is being built. While one kid showers the other can brush teeth in the morning etc… and on it goes eliminates bathroom fights in the morning before school. Is there a better way?
Hey Garrett, just recently found your channel and been binge watching quite a few of your vids in anticipation of hopefully soon getting a house and completely renovating/redecorating it. Thanks for all your advice, it has been super helpful to have someone like you articulate feelings/tastes that I've had/enjoyed for a while, but couldn't concretely define, not to mention for all the new ideas/things I've learned from you so far. Just liked, subscribed and bell notification turned on, glad and grateful to be here on your channel, stay awesome!
Thanks so much! Welcome to the channel. I'm glad you are enjoying the videos.
@@GarrettLeChic Thank you!

As usual a great video friend loved every minute of it!!! ❤️❤️😍😍😍
Thank you so much 😁😁😁
Smart idea.
I love the vibrant tile but only have it in my laundry room. It is just a touch of my overall house decor, kinda unexpected,and I've had tons of compliments. Laundry is a chore and this room makes me happy every time I go in. In the bathroom I use towel bars and hooks. I only reuse a towel maybe once.(Let us go back to my laundry room,ha!)The bar serves as a drying and place holder/decor, (depends on if I'm showing it or living it)I have hooks on the inside of closet doors,(do not put wet anything on hooks)I have one hook close to glass shower doors for ease of access to towel(s) or decor(depends). I also am the type that cleans my shower walls, tub, and sinks after every use, so, it is work but I love it!
I am using his advise. I would never have thought of it.
Glad to be of help! Please take a moment to support the channel if you haven't already, and join our very valued subscriber family.
I use towel bars to display towels and a hook to hide the towel in use behind the door. I love the painted or papered ceiling idea.
Im so glad I found your channel! My husband and I are about to renovate our house and all your tips are great! x
Thanks Alyssa! Welcome to the channel. It's great to have you as part of our very valued subscriber family. I'm glad you enjoyed the video. :)
Always enjoy your videos. I once had a tiny powder room with wainscoting. I wrapped the colour above the wainscoting across the ceiling too. It looked great!
Very interesting idea! Thanks so much. :)
@@GarrettLeChic oh, oh! Interesting. Like “I love that for you” ? 😉
Off topic but I really love the art piece behind you in this video!!
1) I WISH I had the space to separate the toilet from the powder room area. That's the dream really.
2) I like towel bars personally but I think hooks are more practical in smaller bathrooms and in houses with larger families where many people are sharing the same bathroom. 5 wet towels squished onto 1 bar is not a cute look, and probably not very sanitary either.
Thanks so much! You will be seeing more of the Tarkays in the studio once the space is fully completed which should be in March. I'm sorry the separation option in the bathroom won't work for you. I understand the dilemma, and sometimes there just isn't an immediate easy answer. A space can limit what is possible unfortunately.
Love it as well
Super helpful information. I am building a new home and will use these ideas in my design.
Glad it was helpful!
My towels on hooks, always, I`m with you there.. 🙂
I hang my damp bath towels on the heated towel rack, which is also my radiator. That way they dry quickly, at least in the winter when the radiator is on.
Love your content! Subscribed!!!
Yay! Thank you. I’m glad you are enjoying. Welcome to the channel. It’s great to have you as part of our very valued subscriber family!😊😊😊
@@GarrettLeChic Thank you!!💕
You are always professional in your videos and they are a wealth of very useful information. I like how you cover all design styles not just yours. Well done!
Thanks much!
I have a wall mounted towel warmer that I use. It works really well to dry towels. Prior to that, I had towel rods, the kind with the double bar. I hung the towel over both bars. It worked nicely. Not a fan of hooks, unless it's for your robe, when you step out of the shower.
use both hooks and bars ☺️
currently redoing a powder room, we did one wall in an all-wall paints/stencils, it took ages but looks great, like a wallpaper.
we haven't installed it yet, but got a toilet without the worms 😄 (the pipe curves lmao) and now I'm going to have to look into switching out this 4" faucet set (also not installed yet.) your YT vids have made me think about so! much! when decorating! ❤️
when my hubby grumps about the extra steps, Garrett, I know you'll be that friend who'll let me blame it on you 🥰
No problem Tonya! LOL
Everyone needs a friend like that!
I like both the hook and towel bar. I need both! :) Thanks Garrett!
thank you
Loved the painted black ceiling . I use hooks and bars in my bathroom both work. Bar is definitely more visaully appealing. Your content just gets better and better Garret.
Thanks so much!
SO appreciate how often your videos consider accessibility in the home.
Always!
Thank you for mentioning accessibility issues. So many people don't think about that when designing.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching. Please take a moment to support the channel, and join our very valued subscriber family.
I have both a hook and bar. I have a triple swivel hook next to the shower for easy access to the drying towels and robe when finished showering.
I have vintage colored glass rods for drying towels.
You have so many good tips Garrett!
Thanks for sharing! I appreciate you watching. :)
We use towel warmer bar, it doubles as an extra heater, towels are dry in no time and they look good. Hudson Reed USA has excellent ones to match any style.
I prefer the hook b/c no folding skills required. Plus I believe it drys quicker. But I luv ur style, Garrett, once and done!
Great ideas. First video I've seen of yours but you gained a new sub when you considered faucet height issues for children or seated adults. Your ideas are realistic yet beautiful. Really inspiring.
Thanks so much! Welcome to the channel Ellen. It's great to have you as part of our very valued subscriber family. We generally post twice a week, so it's a good idea to have your bell notifications on. There was a very informative video post yesterday. :)
Garrett you’re so fabulous!!! My bathroom has not been renovated yet ( new countertops, flooring, shower and fixtures) but I could possibly do just the floor right now (as it’s currently the ugliest linoleum you can think of). However, I’m not sure if I should just wait to do the whole bathroom since I want to take the tub (fiber glass tub/shower piece) and just have a beautiful tiled shower with frameless glass door. I want a hexagon white marble tile for the floor.
You are right about the shower glass doors, on my to do list, when I get extra funds. Plus your ideas to make white and gray bathrooms are great.
Thanks, and thanks so much for watching, and supporting our channel by subscribing! :)
