 I've spent the past times ii weeks updating our old, outdated main bathroom. I did it all myself, in addition to amongst a budget of less than $100. I'm in addition to therefore excited to lastly live able to part all the DIY details amongst you!

My agency of working amongst a pocket-size budget is to focus on what I tin alter cheaply in addition to brand the best of what I have. I would dearest to upgrade to a fancy drinking glass shower in addition to gorgeous marble countertops, but that's but obviously unrealistic for us correct now. In the meantime, I wanted to at to the lowest degree upgrade the infinite past times using a few inexpensive diy tricks I accept upward my sleeve, most of which take paint! Hopefully this volition assistance attain yous some ideas & solutions for your ain outdated bathrooms!

So, hither is what the bath looks similar today.

I decided I wanted our main bath to live a fresh, create clean aqua blue. I decided upon Sherwin Williams Sea Salt, which is my absolute favorite color. 
I fifty-fifty used it inward my closet!

Now, couplet yourselves.
 Here is what the bath looked similar 2 years agone when nosotros moved in. 

 

We had peachy-beige walls in addition to orange, grainy cabinetry. 

Here's a side past times side:

The really get-go affair I did inward this bath was to pigment the cabinetry in addition to trim. It's an easy, affordable solution, in addition to ever helps to update an outdated space.

See my best cut back icon tips here.

I also changed out the hardware on the vanity. I decided to switch it upward a fleck past times putting circular knobs on the drawers in addition to vertical pulls on the doors. I dearest adding footling personalized touches similar that.

Luckily, the erstwhile possessor had already installed gorgeous faucets in addition to crisp white sinks, in addition to therefore those stayed. 

The tile countertops were painted white using the same production I used here. It's such an tardily update, in addition to agency cheaper than replacing your countertops. 

See that lather heart in addition to footling canister? Both came from my favorite thrift store. I remember they were close $2 each.

I also painted the grout on our flooring tile. It was kinda dingy, in addition to grout pigment was an tardily solution. Here's that business office of the projection halfway through. You tin run across where the restored white grout runs into the old brown grout.

Here's the grout completely done in addition to looking create clean in addition to new!

You tin run across how I pigment my grout here.

I also scored a cute floral shower drape in addition to bath mat at Marshall's.

After icon stripes inward the guest bath, I wanted to practise something particular here, too. So, I establish some large cardboard letters at the arts and crafts shop in addition to spray painted them white. 

I stuck them to the wall amongst some wall hanging adhesive.

Now, onto the adjacent business office of this bathroom, the mirror.  In the invitee bath, I removed the structure degree mirror in addition to hung a framed mirror. However, inward the main bath I ran into a problem. The mirror was attached to the wall amongst adhesive rather than screwed inward similar the other bath. Rather than bargain amongst having it shatter into a 1 K 1000 pieces, I decided to build a frame approximately it.

Here's the earlier pic. You tin run across that approximately the edges the mirror was discolored in addition to looked awful.

So, the nosotros went to Lowe's in addition to picked out some inexpensive faux-wood trim. Faux forest was definitely the agency to teach for this because non solely was it cheaper ($6 per 6ft piece), but the synthetic forest was also actually lightweight in addition to much easier to hang.

Here is the finished mirror, all framed in. After nosotros glued the frame to the mirror, I caulked the gaps in addition to painted the entire frame white.

I remember it looks in addition to therefore much ameliorate than the old structure degree builder mirror.

 

Oh, in addition to my budget dried upward earlier I could teach a privy newspaper holder thingy, in addition to therefore for now, the privy newspaper has a bowl. 

Just keepin' it real.

Here's the persuasion from the other way. 

You tin run across out into the bedroom.

(Take the sleeping accommodation tour here. Prepare to laugh.) 

And at that topographic point ya accept it: Our footling blueish main bathroom!

It's goose egg special, but it's in addition to therefore much ameliorate than before. It feels totally refreshed in addition to new, in addition to it no longer makes me cringe when I walk in.

And that, my friends, is a success!
