The Modern Luxury Bath

Step into the Modern Luxury Bath where Lunada Consulting & Design, Inc. brought the homeowner's vision to reality. For this renovation, LCD stripped the existing bath to its studs and floor boards to transform it into a beautiful spa-like oasis. The sharp lines and extraordinary Neolith surfaces create a modern feel, while the walnut cabinets bring warmth to the space for the perfect balance of materials. For more photos of the Modern Luxury Bath, scroll below.

with curved satin nickel faucets and

DIY with LCD: 5 Household Items Transformed

Many of us have items around the house waiting to be discarded, instead these items can be transformed into functional pieces. The LCD Team decided to use some of these household items to create objects we can use everyday. Click the image below to see the 5 household items the LCD Team transformed. From coffee cans re-purposed as hanging planters to a broken tea pot turned into beautiful Japanese-inspired art. 

Macramé Planters
Turn empty coffee cans into a beautiful 
hanging garden. This macramé planter 
will add life to any room!
(Display Model: Kat)

Materials: String, paint, key ring, & coffee tins.
Level of Difficulty: Medium (Once you figure out how to knot the holder, it's pretty easy to create!).
Decorating Tip: Use a couple coats of paint for an even finish.

Pencil Holders & Succulent Pots
What better way to keep your work space organized 
and beautiful! Add these two items for a quick 
desk makeover.

Materials: Food cans/jars, paint, hot glue gun, & sea glass. 
Level of Difficulty: Easy (Follow the ridges on the can to paint a straight line with ease).
Decorating Tip: Set in front of fan for quick drying.

Kintsugi Tea Pot
Bring a broken tea pot back to life with this kintsugi-inspired technique - The Japanese art of repairing broken pottery. 

Materials: Broken pottery, gold leaf paint, & epoxy.
Level of Difficulty: Medium (epoxy was hardest to work with before it dried & gold leaf paint was easy).
Decorating Tip: I'm sure everyone has a piece of broken pottery to work with. Don't throw it away, bring it back to life with kintsugi!

T-shirt Bag
Out with plastic, in with cotton. Turn an old t-shirt 
into your new reusable grocery bag! 
Farmers market approved.

Decorating Tip: Cut a larger hole in the arms and neck for a wider opening.
