We started making over the bathroom months ago....and I think I can finally say it is done. It's actually the only room in the house right now that doesn't have something that still needs to be done. :)
These pictures are really poor quality because there is no natural light and the lens I used, but you get the picture.
This is the kids' bathroom (also the bathroom that guests use since we do not have a half bath). Just a regular ole bathroom with two sinks, toilet, and tub. ;)
Before:
After:
We {read: Geoff) painted the walls by Behr (these pictures make it look a little green, but it's not at all...it's more of a taupe color and I really, really like it). I knew I wanted to add some 'color' because I have so much white in there and I just needed add a little something. ;) But I have trouble with committing to color. I love other people's homes that have color on the walls...but for me- I'm so fickle and doubt myself and then drive my myself (read: my husband) crazy.
Most of the bathroom was inspired by this bathroom.
So Geoff spray painted the molding a glossy black and glued to mirror to make the frame.
I think it adds so much. Believe it or not...we framed our mirror in our first home waaay before Pinterest. :) Our first home was a foreclosure and basically trashed...so we did a LOT of work to it. Anyway- we had to take the bathroom mirror down and it accidentally cracked. He came up with the idea to frame it and I always told him that it was a great mistake to make because it made such a difference in the bathroom!
I saw this sign on pinterest, as well, and knew it was what I wanted to go in their bathroom.
I purchased this white shower curtain soon after we moved in. I did try to get a different shower curtain over the summer and it hung in there for a few months, but I just wasn't feeling it. So I put the white curtain back up....which then motivated me to add the color to the walls because it was just too white! :)
With baby #3 coming...I also knew I needed a better way to hang their towels to dry. We had the original towel rack that is good for drying 1, maybe 2, towels at a time. Not very functional.
So when I saw this a while back...I knew that's what I wanted to do.
My sister, Kristin, made these towels for the kids and my mom embroidered their names. I love how all of this turned out. And, of course, after Nolan is born...we'll take new pictures for those frames. :)
I guess I would like to still change out the light fixtures....but this will do for now.
