Here's the deal. I did tons of difficult function on this bathroom many-moons ago. I took it from 1980's to 2010-ish past times ikon close every surface inwards sight. It looked thus much better; many of you lot persuasion it looked great. BUT, since I alive amongst this bath every unmarried day, a few things started to bother me. And since this is a weblog close the mundane happenings of my house, here's THAT story.
Last calendar week I stopped past times the thrift store. (If you've followed me for awhile, you lot know past times straight off that I become to the thrift shop close every bit much every bit I brush my teeth. And I lead keep roughly rather pearly-whites.)
I came domicile amongst iii amazing scores. I constitute this amazing chandelier that I rehabbed, as well as and then I constitute two really awesome things that gear upwards me off on a bathroom-mini-makeover.
So, my absolute favorite uncovering was this antique manus mirror. My grandmother gave me 1 almost precisely similar it several years ago. It resides on my dresser, as well as I adore it. So, when I saw this 1 at the thrift shop for $11, I yanked it upwards inwards warp-speed.
There's thus much full junk at thrift stores, but I e'er proceed going dorsum because at that spot are treasures to live on found, peoples!
The adjacent affair I constitute I knew I wanted the infinitesimal I spotted it, but I had no persuasion what I would exercise amongst it. It was a argent framed mirror for $6. I persuasion it was actually pretty, as well as for $6 you lot actually can't miss. And as well as then I picked it upwards as well as set it inwards my cart as well as saw a pottery barn pricetag on it. For $89. Now, I'm certain this affair was in all probability from 1998. But, still. You tin for sure imagine my encephalon celebration.
And when I brought it domicile as well as persuasion close it for a wee second, I knew. It would become where the 'crappy bath art' used to go.
Here is crappy bath fine art exhibit #1
And straight off hither is the thrifty PB mirror !
It basically took my bath from 6-year-old-bath-time to normal zone.
Sometimes you lot only don't larn it correct on the starting fourth dimension try.
You may also notice that I got roughly fancy novel soft plush greyish bath towels. I lead keep a bad habit of using my towels every bit drop-cloths when I paint, as well as it was a necessary upgrade.
And since I grew to loathe that awful youthy-loud-flowery shower curtain, I replaced it amongst a calm, cool, as well as collected adult version. Welcome Mr. gray, damask, pretty!
Sometimes it's amazing how niggling changes tin behave on how you lot experience close a room. Isn't the frame on the niggling mirror thus dreamy? (For $6, you lot improve live on shaking your caput inwards a yes-direction.)
And I beloved how a few fancy accents tin totally accept a vanity from plain-jane to luxurious!
In instance you lot missed the starting fourth dimension bathroom-redo post, that pocket-size canister as well as lather holder were also thrift shop finds. The canister was existent silver, too. Not that I care...I would sport a newspaper plate lather holder if the cost was right, but hey, extra bonus points on a worthy thrift shop find!
So, now, for those of you lot who missed the transformation of this bath on the starting fourth dimension go-round, let's reminisce. Check out how gnarly this bathroom used to live on earlier I got my paint-obsessed-little-hands on it!
It is yet roughly other instance of how you lot tin update your solid amongst only a bucket of pigment as well as endless hours/patience on your hands! :)
And now, of course, it's latest updo without those awful letters! Again, if I was 6, my cite was Jacob, as well as I liked to accept a bath, the BATH would live on appropriate. But, I'm 29, people telephone phone me Virginia, as well as at that spot isn't fifty-fifty a bathtub inwards this bathroom, thus let's proceed it real. The toddler letters had to GO.
Oh, as well as 1 to a greater extent than teensy fleck of reminiscing. If you're looking for a agency to refresh your GROSS tile grout (I'm no stranger to disgusting grout), I constitute a pretty expert solution, as well as I totally restored my tile grout. You tin uncovering all the gritty details here.
Here's a niggling grout-restoring-proof for ya!
Not bad, eh?
So, straight off I'll larn out you lot amongst a niggling peek out into my bedroom, which is what I come across everytime I'm drying off my hiney....with 1 of my novel luxurious non-paint-coated towels. :)
Thanks for listening to me ramble, as well as for caring close all of the ridiculously mundane details of my bathroom!
