They say that kitchen and bathroom renovations offer the best return on investment when it comes to resale, and designer Leslie Biggley has really put that to the test in her two most recent projects—a pair of Pinterest-worthy bathrooms. Read on for Leslie’s tips for designing two distinct bathrooms, plus her suggestions for where to save and where to splurge in your own renovation. Vanity // Mirrors // Sconces // Basket What were your goals and inspirations when designing your two new bathrooms? When I designed the en suite, I knew that I wanted the soaker tub to be the focal point of the space across the back of the bathroom with an amazing light fixture over the top because I love that look!

Our pick Delta In2ition 58480 This efficient showerhead combines the benefits of a handheld with a full- featured traditional model to give you a unique set of advantages, like richer spray patterns and easier installation, than some competitors. *At the time of publishing, the price was $130. The Delta In2ition 58480 combines the simplicity of a wall-mounted showerhead and the utility of a handheld—switching between them is a matter of holstering or drawing the handheld unit. At 2 gallons of water per minute, it meets the strictest federal efficiency guidelines , yet delivers satisfying results on multiple spray settings , from a gentle “rainshower” to a powerful massage. The 58480 replaces this guide’s former handheld pick, the similar Delta 58471, an excellent product many of our readers and a few editors use and love. This new Delta is more efficient than the other one’s 2.5 gpm, and its gentler spray options are more comfortable, which really helps when bathing kids or pet...
