blue bathroom

Our hall bathroom is finally done. For now. Hopefully in the next couple years we will be able to re-tile, put new flooring in and change the tub, toilet, etc. However, I am not ready to get rid of the original 50's tile and color scheme just yet (both physically and financially!) Eventually we want to have a completely updated bathroom, while still keeping with the era of the house. But for now it is much more so fresh and so clean. For a minimal amount of money we were able to create a bathroom that people can actually use. One without butterfly wallpaper. Here are some before and after pics...

before: wallpaper, yellow-beige cabinets, aged brass hardware, clunky medicine cabinet, horrid light fixture




after: new lights, ikea mirror, white cabinets with new hardware, Martha Stewart's Starched Linen on the walls, white trim and door, towel hooks and shelf, vintage inspired shower curtain to bring all the colors together

It turned out so great Toni! And I LOVE LOVE LOVE the shower curtain. I'm thinking maybe I'll have to get one and put it away... you know, for possible future daughter's room inspiration. :)
