hmmm, seem to have a strange conception of $250, since when I looked at the Seville hotel, the first photo, rooms started at 330 euros. I didn't look at the others, since I figured there might be some sort of conversion calculation error going on.

yeah I did this years ago when my clawfoot tub finally was usable. We did not shower, but I did fit 13 people into my small bathroom, with 3 people in the tub. We opened champagne. We were clothed and no one had to wear a towel.

do not buy an old tub without the clawfeet. I bought one for $100 with two different pairs of feet. After trying to match the ones that didn't have their grooves broken off, and my plumber setting it up, the whole thing slipped, because it wasn't the right set of feet. So I had to find 4 matching feet for the set that had been broken.

I learned a lot about setting up an old tub like that, but oh man. Do not import a tub from a different city/region without confirming that the feet you have are the correct ones. There was almost no standardization, so different regions and cities have slightly different shaped tubs and feet.

don't paint them! I bought my house w/painted cabinets, and it just looked cheap. The problem is that the cabinets have all that weird decorative bevelling that makes them look cheesy. Get new doors, and see how that makes it feel -- seems like it would be fairly cheap and with nice handles, it could make it look more streamlined.

I bought these sheets about 8 months ago -- and they are lovely, but I find the flat sheet for the queen size to be a bit small. Maybe I accidentally shrunk them once. Though the fitted sheet is fine. They're also a little silky, which is really nice.

how gorgeous, what a poor graduate student needs to make her feel like she's moving up in the world (slowly).
