Bathrooms in many Connecticut homes are being renovated and transformed into Victorian-style baths, which feature some of the elegance and simplicity of a revolutionary era. Using classic white as the foundation, these traditional bathrooms appear spacious, no matter the actual size of the room. The key to creating a classic bathroom design is the accessories and fixtures, which can be purchased brand-new or as refurbished antiques.

Trends include the classic claw-foot bathtub, complete with wooden towel stands, vintage mirrors combined with classic freestanding furniture will highlight the look and feel of your bathroom.
