Before & After: From Laundry Room to Rustic Chic Bathroom

My biggest bathroom problem is that after trying to fix a running toilet myself (successfully), I accidentally smashed the toilet tank lid... this was a year and a half ago..

DO YOU KNOW HOW HARD IT IS TO FIND A REPLACEMENT TOILET TANK LID?!!? DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY DIFFERENT STYLES AND MODELS OF TOILETS THERE ARE AND THAT THEY KEEP CHANGING ALL THE TIME?!?!!!

ITS IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND AN IDENTICAL TOILET...ANYWHERE!!!!

THERE ARE PROBABLY NO TWO TOILETS ALIKE ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD!!!
(ok, so maybe thats an extreme statement).

But seriously... I live in a rented flat and don't want to admit to my landlords that I might have to change the whole toilet just because of the stupid lid, fearing they will go mental and rip me off, plus I havent got around to arranging it myself as it will probably be expensive.

So for now I dont allow guests to use that toilet and I have to be inventive in making a wire handle which reaches inside the tank to flush the toilet...

oh well....

How much can you spend... ? I would install a made to measure fishtank which would fill the whole space and have lots of colourful fish in there..

I like this. Would love to get a close up of the birch tree trunks in the vase in the living room. Very homely.

Last task of the day...? a bit weird, but I clean out my handbag (hate crumped receipts, empty gum wrappers and loose change) and organise anything that I need to take to work with me the next day.. Habit from school I guess...

I have 6 Ribba frames I need to hang and have been scratching my head for the last month as to how on earth I would be able to get them all straight on the wall. Very very useful tip!!
