The master bathroom has been finished for awhile (well, except for the baseboards, but Curtis is busy on the family room so I'm not going to distract him!), but I just had to get new towels before I posted pics! Besides, Curtis and I were forever arguing about who was using which color of towel. New towels solved the problem: me, pink; him, brown.
Before:
After:
Since the previous owners redid most of the bathroom (looks like the probably gutted it and started over) there wasn't a whole lot that we did. The major changes were a new vanity and a couple of storage solutions. I'm glad that they did as much as they did - we would never be this far along if they hadn't! It's definitely not my dream bathroom - I would love to have a bathroom with black walls, white vanity with dark granite top, brushed nickel accessories, gleaming white tub/shower, and dark tile on the floor. Oh, and a chandelier hanging from the ceiling. I don't think that's up to code though, unfortunately :(. Anyway, that was way off topic!
Budget Breakdown:
Vanity from Lowes: $249 (on sale and with free delivery!)
Mirror from Lowes: $58 (on sale)
Faucet from Home Depot: $96 (after we installed it, we saw Menards had it for $77 on sale!)
Towel cupboard: free from my mom
Towel rack/shelves from Target: $14ish
Vase with flowers: spray-painted a vase I already had, $4 flowers
Toothbrush holder, soap dispenser, & jar from Target: $30
4 towels, 4 wash cloths, 2 hand towels from Walmart: $28.80
Storage totes (there are also 2 inside the vanity) from Target: $25ish
So, $504.80 isn't too bad! (And this is the first time I've been adding things up room-by-room. Quite enlightening! Surprisingly, I can remember most of the prices off the top of my head. Obsessed much?)
I really want to change out the light above the vanity. Curtis thinks it is fine. Any other opinions out there?
And this is our plan for a bathroom door:
Probably not in yellow. Or maybe??
