"The Block" - Bathrooms & Laundries

The last 'room reveal' on the Block show was the contestants bathrooms and laundries. Can you believe they had to fully renovate, install and style a bathroom and a laundry in a week?

To give you an idea, this is what most of the rooms looked like when they moved in...


And the reveal...



Josh & Jenna



Katrina & Amie



Polly & Waz



Rod & Tania
The judges this week chose Rod & Tania but I have to say that I liked Katrina & Amie's bathroom. Rod & Tania's was very stylish and modern but I would always prefer more storage in a bathroom (although that's a more personal thing). The floating vanity does make the bathroom feel much bigger, which is a great idea for a small space.

Polly & Waz had a fantastic idea for a small laundry - adding a drying rail above the sink. This is a great idea for drip drying delicate pieces. I also thought their bathroom had a bit of a retro feel to it, which goes well with their last bedroom.

I like the ecclectic style Katrina & Amie have given their bathroom with the flowers and checked towels. And although I wasn't a huge fan of the tiles I think they work well with the rest of the room.

I also loved the simplicity of Josh & Jenna's bathroom and the gorgeous sink!

Who would you choose?

Overall though I did feel the laundry for all of the couples could have been more exciting, especially since they are the first room you see before you reach the bathroom. There are so many gorgeous laundry rooms around now, and why not make a boring job more fun with something pretty to look at?
