Our upstairs bathroom has been the armpit of our house for years. It is neglected and forgotten about. Truthfully, it is embarrassing. I painted this room the first year we moved into our house. I chose what I thought was a nice neutral color only to get it on the walls and have the hubs ask, "why did you paint the bathroom flesh color??" I thought he was ridiculous.... but he was right. It was all wrong. Over the years, I did change out the shower curtain and add some art but it was no use. It was not working.
Nevermind the paint lid and screwdriver on the counter. I had already removed the art, towel racks and started prepping for paint before snapping these pics.
Since we can't remake the bathroom into a larger, more spacious bathroom right now, I at least could update the place better. (Ideally, I would like to knock out the wall behind the shower since that is our walk-in closet, and extend the bathroom back several feet, put in a double sink vanity and put in hexagon floor tiles. Yeah, apparently I have nothing better to do but dream about house updates.)
I painted the room a greige (grey/beige). Any you already saw the hook rack I made here.
New shower curtain and curtain rod.
New light fixture which I installed myself!!
Sorry the pic of the light is hard to see. I have never seen the bathroom so bright in the last 9 years we lived here! Holy light, Batman!!! I will get a better pic of that soon.
But more exciting, the vanity got a new look with some paint and hardware.
Paint: Behr paint and primer in one, blueberry twist in semi-gloss.
Love it!! More to come...
It looks great! How on Earth do you have the time to do all of these updates? You must never sleep.
