Rustic New Bathroom with Stone Wall


I love the idea of this dry stacked stone wall, weathered barn board door and flooring, and the overall feel of  this bathroom. It looks to be low upkeep but I wonder; would spiders start living in the wall? I would take the chance rather than fill in the spaces with mortar. The old lumber used for the lintel over the window and the ceiling beams complete the wonderful craftsmanship. via

Very rustic and beautiful. I wonder if the stone wall would be cold during the wintertime?

Pam -- Since it's new construction I would imagine the outside wall is well insulated. I have always heard a stone house is cool in the summer and warm in the winter. In the winter, it takes a while for the interior stone to warm up but when it does, it stays that way. I have never lived in a stone house so I don't know if that is true.

I have heard that spiders are repelled by the smell of lavender, so I would plant lots of lavender on the outside of the wall and probably spray lavender on the inside. Or have lavender in the air of the bathroom. Whatever works/
