Let's take a minute to look back at what we started with.
Dated everything. Blah white vanity cabinet, old formica counter, a toilet that wasn't functioning, discolored flooring and a medicine cabinet without a purpose and eighties lighting. It really was a deep dark unhappy place tucked away within a nook of our home, and was not at all a reflection of us or our personality.
Hosting company put us into gear to hurry and give this room some love, and I couldn't be happier that we finally took on a project that has been on our "To Do" list for some time.
Day one I stayed up nice and late and slapped a few coats of paint on the walls {Behr's Quietude}.
Day two I primed and painted the cabinets {Martha Stewart Wrought Iron} and removed the trim to prepare for the flooring.
Day three I went on the hunt for a new mirror, lined the cabinets with pretty paper and the hubs started laying our new floors.
Day four the sconces were installed, the mirror was given a little love and I came up with some cute storage for the Q-Tips.
Over the weekend we wrapped up the installation items, such as the floor, the trim, the toilet, the sink and faucet and all of the hardware and shelving. It was a VERY productive weekend!
So all of that build up and anticipation, all for the FINAL REVEAL! We did it. I am not sure how, I didn't think we would, but we did. We got everything done the day of our company arriving. I finished styling and shooting the photos only an hour prior. That is some soap opera drama right there.
You have read all of the details for the past week, so I am going to let the photos do all of the talking today.
Let me just hop into the shower quick and give you my favorite view right away...
The wall received the pretty knobs turned hooks. They now hold a hand towel and bathroom accessories.
The white counter cleaned up the entire space. It now feels timeless, and allows all of the accessories to really pop.
The inside of the vanity received a little love as well. The shelf liner was the perfect backdrop to the fluffy white towels, scrubbers, cleaning supplies and paper products.
Above the loo, we DIY'd and stained a wooden shelf, which now holds a mason jar of flowers and some wash rags.
The frame was a Goodwill find, and I added brass L-brackets from the hardware store to give it a little extra somethin' somethin'.
The art was a saying that I have been crushing at for quite a long time, that Emily Ley sure is a smart cookie.
Below the shelf was another Goodwill find. A simple white dish holds yummy smelling soaps.
The hooks act as the perfect resting place for more towels.
Let's crawl back into the shower. You can snag a sweet look at how the shower curtain plays nicely with all of the other colors and accessories in the space.
And how about we give some love to the new floors. Completely waterproof, yet they look oh so warm, rustic and chic.
The cabinet to the right of the curtain holds a few extra goodies. Extra toiletries and the new oh-so-sweet tip jar.
And that rounds out the week long bathroom drama with the happiest ever after!
Did I want to cry at times? Absolutely. Was I let down multiple times? Yep. Did I wonder time and time again if our marriage would survive or if we would finish in time? Yes and yes. Was it worth every last ounce of time? No doubt.
I am excited to see what we can pull off within a week's worth of time, however, I now feel like I need a renovation vacation, so I am not sure we will be as ambitious with future projects. But man does it feel incredible to walk into that bathroom.

You never fail to disappoint with your reveals Miss Jen! It is gorgeous! If I could, I would fly you down to SC to go shopping with me for stuff for my house! I love your use of color, and how you're not afraid to mix metals. I need to get on that bandwagon! ;)
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like oodles of fun! It's a date!!

It's beautiful! I love the picture frame. I know, I know, of all things for someone to comment on the picture frame. Ha. What a huge transformation, overall. It looks like it belongs in a high-end establishment!
ReplyDeleteI love the frame too, makes me smile! It's the little things!

Wow! You did such a fantastic job. And in a week. You need a medal. Im sure your guests will feel very at home and welcome.
ReplyDeleteOUTSTANDING JOB!!!!! That is gorgeous!!! It is one of those "get a cup of coffee and stand in the door-way admiring your work" kind of jobs. YEA!!!! Congrats.
ReplyDeleteThis transformation is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING, J! So luxe! Your DIY touches are so spot-on. Love it all.
ReplyDeleteIt looks beautiful! I hope you get your renovation vacation and then decide to do more projects like this! I loved following along!
ReplyDeleteLooks so lovely!!! Love the space as a whole and all of the special little details - your specialty :) High five to you - enjoy your time with visitors!
ReplyDeleteAmazing! So beautiful!
ReplyDeleteIt turned out gorgeous!! I can see why you're so proud of it, it's truly amazing what can be done in such a short amount of time. I hope you're enjoying your guests:)
ReplyDeleteMelanieL
Just gorgeous!! What a transformation!! Love it!
ReplyDeleteJust beautiful! I would love to know what kind of vinyl planks you used...it really warms up the room.
ReplyDeleteThank you! You can snag the details for the floors in the previous posts linked above or from the source link at the end of the post.

Fabulous details as always! It's gorgeous! And abi feel done to your super star hubby who managed all those installations in a week!! :)
ReplyDeleteThis bathroom is so gorgeous! The mason jar is so adorable, and of course everything else :)
ReplyDeleteI love it. Such a great transformation, and in just a week! Nicely done! Enjoy your company, and happy getting ready for back-to-school! You should let us know how you organize that ;)

It looks great!! I love the use of neutrals on the walls, cabinets, and floors, and then the added pops of color in the accessories.
ReplyDeleteI've been patiently awaiting your reveal for this, and it was well worth the wait! Congratulations for, yet again, blowing your followers away with your creativity and willingness to let us into your life. The bathroom is absolutely stunning, Jen!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful work! You have great style! Have you considered painting your quarter round/base shoe around the cabinet the same color as the cabinet? Might look good.
ReplyDeleteThat was a huge debate between the hubs and I. I think it should be painted, he said no. I think I will wait until he is at work someday and surprise him, lol.
Deletexo,
Jen
I love it! It looks fantastic!!!! I love everything and I am addicted to cute knobs too. You should sew a small ribbon "hook" on your white hand towel and loop it over your other anthro knob so you can see that knob too. For that splurge you should show it off!
ReplyDeleteTotally agree! It is something we also want to do so they hang nicer, however, we ran out of time for the reveal. It will be happening soon though! :)
Deletexo,
Jen
Wow, what a transformation! It looks gorgeous, so fresh and clean. Wishing you would come and re-do my bathroom.
ReplyDeleteThis is such a peaceful, beautiful bathroom!! I love the blue vanity and that shower curtain is amazing!! Your guests are in for a treat :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the inspiration!
I love the colors! I also love that it is a touch feminine without being over the top! very cute!
ReplyDeleteOK, so, I'm IN LOVE with the teal and gold Ball jar. How did you make that?
ReplyDeleteThank you! The jar was purchased blue and I just taped it off with painters tape and gave it a quick coat of gold spray paint. Love it too! I had to make a couple of them to sprinkle around the abode.
Deletexo,
Jen
What gold paint did you use? Was looking for a tut here for that, it's gorgeous! (And I love the whole bathroom too!!)
DeleteHi Kate!
DeleteI love the Rustoleum Gold Metallic Spray Paint, I find it at Home Depot but you can also snag it on Amazon: http://amzn.to/142Iyhx

I love the finished room! Everything plays so nicely together and the space has so much character without being overwhelming. My husband and I bought our home (brand new) three years ago and both of our bathrooms have remained untouched. I've bee wanting to paint/decorate but haven't seen the need (since everything is new and we won't be staying here very much longer), but this makeover makes me really want to get in there and update our bathrooms!
ReplyDeleteLOVE!
I am in LOVE with this makeover. It is gorgeous, it sure would put a smiile on my face every time I walked into the room!
ReplyDeleteOn man Jen you hit it out of the park! It's stunning. I love everything about it and am inspired to do a little somethin' in our powder room. Thanks for the inspiration :)
ReplyDeleteHoly bright and beautiful, batman! Not that I didn't expect it from you, but I seriously love every detail. The mirror is perfection, the gold print and frame details, the happy shower curtain. Just everything. Give yourself (and Bryan, too!) a pat on the back for a job very well done.
ReplyDeleteBoy your guests will have a beautiful bathroom to use. Any fun plans this week with your guests.
ReplyDeleteJust good food and laughs! :) It was a super nice couple of days, thank you for asking!!
Deletexo,
Jen
Everything you do is so stylish! Even inside your cupboards are cute. it is all the little details that make it amazing. What kind of gold spray paint did you use on the mason jar? I bought six of them and was trying to figure out what to do with them and I am copying your idea! :-P
ReplyDeleteThanks so much! I love the Rustoleum Gold Metallic Spray Paint, I find it at Home Depot but you can also snag it on Amazon: http://amzn.to/142Iyhx

This looks fantastic!! Love the additional hardware you added to the frame. We just rent but man how I would love to hurl our formica countertops into a place I would never see them again!!
ReplyDeleteJen you have such a gift!! I love every bit of it....now come up to GB and help me!!
ReplyDeleteIt's a date doll! ;) We love the GB area!

I just found your blog recently and have to say that I find it inspiring. I have always found any kind of DIY intimidating, but your bathroom makeover makes it all look possible. Thank you for sharing photos along the way that are not "pin worthy" , I really appreciated knowing how the process really looked!
ReplyDeleteLinda
This is beyond gorgeous, Jen!! One of my favorite rooms in your house :) And one of my favorite vignettes....is it wrong that it involves a toilet? That quote is a favorite too. All the colors are beautiful and the gold touches are perfection. Enjoy your company!
ReplyDeleteHaha, I know right? I thought the same thing, and yes, it is now one of my favorite rooms also. Thanks so much Deme!

A-may-zing! Truly great job, if I had six months to do that project, I still wouldn't do it half as well. It looks gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great team you and your Mr make!

I think this has been my favourite week of blog posts, and that's saying something because I love your blog posts in general... It looks lovely, and it's been great seeing it happen in "real time". You've inspired me to work together with my hubby on a few DIY things in the evening after the kids are in bed - so nice projects to work on together.. Thanks for the inspiration :-)
ReplyDeleteYay! Enjoy that time together!
Deletexo,
Jen
It looks really beautiful - everything came together so well. And can I be honest and say that I'm glad you now need a break from renovations? So often I read blogs and feel like such a slacker. Thanks for being real about the blood, sweat, and tears.
ReplyDeleteOh yes! This was exhausting! We are not super-humans over here! :)
Deletexo,
Jen
LOVE it all! Seriously awesome! Totally crushing on that vase, btw!
ReplyDeleteI still can't believe you did all of THAT in a week. It looks so much better than the dated builder grade bathroom (which we still have, sad face). Maybe this will be some inspiration for the hubby to want to work on our guest bath.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations at getting it done in time! I love it!
Jen, I have soooo enjoyed reading as you blog about this little bathroom makeover. It turned out fantastic!! So cute!
ReplyDeleteI love it!!! Aside from the fab shower curtain, my fav are the towel hooks!! Can you share costs?
ReplyDeleteHi Melissa!
DeleteHere is the link to the towel hooks: http://www.homedepot.com/p/Liberty-Acrylic-Facets-Decorative-Hook-in-Satin-Nickel-128734/202020992#.Ug0k8FN6Ou4
Thank you!
Jen
Everything looks so fresh and pretty! What kind of vanity top did you purchase? It looks like the sink is built in. I've really enjoyed these posts.
ReplyDeleteHi Priscilla!
DeleteWe ended up with a solid surface top with the sink molded as part of the piece. I figured it offered a super clean look, and will also be much easier to maintain and clean down the line.
Here is the source: http://www.homedepot.com/p/Newport-37-in-W-x-22-in-D-AB-Engineered-Composite-Vanity-Top-in-White-with-White-Bowl-N3722GB-W/202021947#.Ug0lf1N6Ou4
It was the perfect size for our existing cabinet so there was no need to cut it down or have it custom ordered which was really nice.
xo!
Jen
BEAUTIFUL!!! I LOVE the way it turned out!! You are fantastic at staging rooms. Reminds me of things I'd see on HGTV. I'm loving the flowers? I'm assuming you use silk flowers? To keep the upkeep simple, haha. I just put a few in my kitchen a little while ago and love how they add life to the room.
ReplyDeleteLoving the color combo and everything about this room! Wish I was the one staying there and using that bathroom! Haha :)
Thanks so much Corely!
DeleteThe orchid is a silk flower, however, the bunch in the vase are fresh flowers from our local market. I did that for our guests, however, I won't replace them frequently.
xo!
Jen
Wow! Your bathroom turned out so beautiful! It is so inspiring how you can create such a lovely space on a budget. It gives me hope for my own home! I also LOVE your shower curtain, and the gold brackets you added to the frame. Wonderful job!!!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! Love all the little touches like the pictures, the mason jar and wall hooks. The new mirror and countertop just help to add even more elegance and chic to the space.
ReplyDeleteWow, the bathroom looks amazing. I didn't think it looked so bad before... just outdated... but it's amazing what you and your husband managed to accomplish in just a week! Have loved following along to "As The Bathroom Turns." Live blogging works for you, girl!
ReplyDeleteFantastic, simply fantastic. I love everything about this space. You've got a great eye. I wish I had the guts to do something a little different with our hall bathroom last year but I played it safe. There's always the upstairs bathroom...
ReplyDeleteReally, really well done! I love the combo of bright and pale colors, and those little touches of gold. You mixed metals quite nicely! I'm sure your guests enjoyed the lovely loo. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm definitely sharing this with my guy because I think we're headed for a renovation of our own. Totally inspiring!
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite reveals ever! :) Awesome work!
ReplyDeleteI love it! A job well done. I love all your color selections and the brightness of the room. I'm sure your guests love it as well! Beautiful, beautiful job!
ReplyDeleteWOW!!! Wow!!! WoW!!! I love it! It is timeless, and you can enjoy it for many years to come. You have such vision. And of course the pops of color are what gave it the WOW factor! You are amazing girl! I seriously can't get enough of you and your amazing talent! :)
ReplyDeleteXO,
Amber
Looks great! Love the art and gold dipped jar the most!
ReplyDeleteIt is gorgeous! Amazing you guys did that in one week!! Way to go Jen.
ReplyDeleteMy heart is literally beating faster looking at the gorgeousness of your new bathroom!! AMAZING shower curtain- where did you get it?
ReplyDeleteHi Jennifer!
DeleteThe shower curtain is from World Market. Here is the source: http://www.worldmarket.com/product/victorian+floral+shower+curtain.do?&from=Search
And it's on sale!
You can find all of the room sources at the bottom of the post.

Jen
I love this!!! It's such a nice mix of metals and colors. How much do you think this whole things cost if you don't mind sharing?
ReplyDeleteThis is just soooo beautiful!!! every little detail is beyond gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI have a silly question regarding the mirror. Is it ok to use any mirror in the bathroom without having to worry about it lasting in there with all the steam and moisture? I found so many beautiful mirrors in homegoods but I wasn't sure if I could use in our master bathroom...
That is a great question. My guess would be that most mirrors are OK. Certain finishes may be a little less ideal given the moisture, so it might just come down to a judgement call or a quick search on Google.
Deletexo!
Jen
It looks great. Is that cabinet formica or wood? We have white formica in our bathrooms and hate it. I don't know if you can paint formica or not. Any suggestion?
ReplyDeleteHmmmm... To be honest, I don't know what you would technically call it. It was a wood with a glossy finish, sort of like a melamine. I think you would be OK if you used a good primer first as we did. We also used a really good paint. It turned out SO great, I love it like crazy. Maybe take a door or drawer in to your local paint shop and talk to a specialist for the best solution.
Deletexo!
Jen
LOVE the mirror!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing the whole process of your bathroom makeover. It looks gorgeous!
ReplyDeletewww.petitestyleonline.com
Perfection, my dear!!!!
ReplyDeleteEmma @ {from my little pink couch}
Nothing short of amazing Jen!!! Love how all of the colors play off of one another, and the accents are perfection. Mixing the metals is unexpected but works beautifully in this space. Great job:)
ReplyDeleteOh JEN. I am in awe. I never considered myself someone who would care about remodeling or revamping beyond slapping some color on the wall and calling it a day. And this is going to sound cheesy, but this inspires me SO. MUCH. The fact that you guys did this all yourself and worked so hard is incredible. And I LOVE Goodwill finds, so the fact that you got some staples there makes me so happy! But seriously, I am blown away by this, you guys did such an incredible job!! SO happy I found your blog! :D
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Steph! That is so awesome to hear!
DeleteHappy renovating!!
Jen
So, I have to know. Are the boys still afraid to use the bathroom now after the makeover? I love it. It's absolutely beautiful. The hubs and I are looking at doing at bathroom makeover too. Thanks for all the great ideas.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on a job well done. The updates look great and I love the counter top... it really makes everything pop.
ReplyDelete- Jaime
I thought the first picture was the finished version at first until I scrolled down....
ReplyDeleteJust gorgeous!! It is amazing what you two have done. Thanks for taking us along. :) Stacie
ReplyDeleteLOVE IT- especially the floor!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! Your saga truly does have a happy ending! :) Rosie
ReplyDeleteIt looks so much brighter and prettier! Amazing what a coat of white paint can do! I love that wooden vase also.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed the real time project posts even though I was more excited for the reveal haha
Jen, this looks amazing. I love the use of the hooks, and the white towels. Your sense of style pulled it all together. What a great accomplishment!
ReplyDeleteLooks beyond super fab!!...Glad you revealed the "tip jar"! (was beginning to wonder if it was still there :) Love that gold "dipped" mason jar too! Everything looks perfect!
ReplyDeleteLove love love this! You guys did such a good job! I've been loving the whole mixed metals look - thanks for the inspiration to finish our guest bathroom!
ReplyDeleteMel
I have chanced upon your blog by chance when I was googling something for our new home and since then, I got hooked with all your posts! when you started your bathroom make over, i have been patiently waiting daily for any updates and I make sure to read each post. you and your hubby are truly awesome. you made your bathroom so lovely! i love love love how you it turned out and considering you and your hubby did it for only a week, it's so pretty! i salute you, miss jen. may you continuously inspire everyone with your DIY projects and your enthusiasm and love for organizing. thank you so much for sharing! :-)
ReplyDeleteTo be honest I'm not sure I was going to like the brass, chrome combo but I think the bathroom looks awesome. It is soooo warm. I love the blue, the brass, the shower curtain, the dipped mason jar rocks. It really does look fantastic.
ReplyDeleteYour bathroom looks amazing, Jen! I love all of the pretty touches you added. You have such a great sense of style. I think I could live in that bathroom.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful transformation! Love it, Jen! You and your husband did a great job and made amazing choices. Loooooooove it so much!
ReplyDeleteNailed it!!!!! Woah nellie I love those mason jars - those may be my favorite tweak for a mason jar that I've ever seen! You should be proud!!!
ReplyDeleteLOVE! It looks amazing!
ReplyDeleteIt's beautiful! Was it difficult to replace the counter? Was it already cut to size somewhere or done for that specific vanity? You've inspired me to tackle our hideous half bath. So well done. I bet your guests didn't want to leave. :)
ReplyDeleteHi Emily!
DeleteIt was surprisingly easy {from what the hubby said}. It seems as though our vanity is a standard size so Home Depot had one that already fit it perfectly, however, many home improvement stores can custom order if they don't stock your particular size.
Best of luck to you as you take on your half bath! I am cheering you on from here!
xo,
Jen
Gorgeous! I love it.
ReplyDeleteJust beautiful! I love the colors and great idea with the brass L brackets on the frame!
ReplyDeleteYou've blown me away. I LOVE EVERY DETAIL. SO inspiring. Looking to redo the children's bathroom and I am so inspired! So good, Jen!
ReplyDeleteI love every detail Jen! Excellent job once again! It looks like the link is wrong for the towel hooks in your sources (the large ones, not the anthro ones). It keeps bringing me to the grace picture source when I click on it. I would love to snag a couple of those!
ReplyDeleteOops! Thanks for catching that! Fixed now. :)
Deletexo,
Jen
It looks amazing! What kind of primer/paint did you use on the cabinet? Did you use any sort of sealer?
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteYou can find the scoop on the primer and paint here: http://iheartorganizing.blogspot.com/2013/08/bathroom-makeover-week-day-two.html
Because I used a glossy exterior paint, I decided not to seal it as I feel it should hold up OK to the interior bath if it was designed to stand up to outdoor elements. :)
xo!
Jen
Jen, this look SO good! So fresh, clean and bright! :)
ReplyDeleteThis is just a beautiful room. Once again, the little touches make the whole thing for me. The knobs on the wall are just fantastic. You didn't mention it, so I wonder if it's not new,
ReplyDeletebut the cover for your air vent on the floor is a really nice touch too. I also really like the L-brackets on the frame. I would have never thought to add that!! Great work!
Thank you Jen! Yes, I forgot to mention the cover. We found it at Home Depot and it was just a smidge more expensive than the standard ones. I felt like it was the icing on the floor cake.
Deletexo,
Jen
WOW! Seriously, love this. You make me want to run home and re-do our half bath. It could use some major updating. Love how clean and fresh your bathroom looks now! You sure do know how to style too!
ReplyDeleteHi Jen,
ReplyDeleteI love your blog. It keeps me in a happy place whenever I see it. My question to you is....how do you choose the paint colors in your home? I have 2 boys and a husband, and I think I make the mistake of asking them what colors they would like in the rooms, etc.
Your home seems to flow gracefully with your paint choices and organization. Can you help me?
Hi Kimberly!
DeleteThank you so much! I try and select colors that are gender neutral for the most part, and then maybe add my small girly touches through an accessory here and there. My guys seem to like it all OK, although, I think they are more concerned with playing than the colors on our walls. :)
xo!
Jen
Where did you buy the paper to line the cabinets?

Jen-- this is fantastic! I love the reno! I have emily's print in blue and it makes me smile everyt ime I see it :) Such a good reminder. The knobs as a towel hook is great. You rock!
ReplyDeleteThis is - by far - one of my most favourite washroom makeovers ever!!! You have such a good eye, and everything in there is so glam and fresh and special! That's the best part - it's so special! I want to be a guest int his bathroom!
ReplyDeleteYou totally Rocked it out of the park Jen! I am loving everything and you have so inspired me to get my butt in gear to update our guest bath. Thanks for the fabulous inspiration!
ReplyDeleteI did not think your old bathroom looked wrong: before reading I thought it was a picture AFTER renovating one!
ReplyDeleteAnyways, even that said, I do think your new bathroom looks adorable! You did a very pretty job. Congratz!!
Jen! Totally lovely in every way. Love the dark blue with pops of pink and gold. So luxe and so you. Way to ROCK a week!
ReplyDeleteLove the bathroom!
ReplyDeleteCan I ask what you did to the mason jar to make it gold? Is it paint? Gold leaf?
Thank you! The jar was purchased blue and I just taped it off with painters tape and gave it a quick coat of gold spray paint {Rustoleum's Gold Metalic}. Love it too! I had to make a couple of them to sprinkle around the abode.

This is beautiful! And, a real inspiration as I've been trying to figure out what to do in our en suite (we just moved in). My question...did you paint over laminate cupboards? And, if so, was there any special prep required?
ReplyDeleteJenn
Hi Jenn!
DeleteWe did paint the laminate cabinet, you can snag the details her: http://iheartorganizing.blogspot.com/2013/08/bathroom-makeover-week-day-two.html
I just primed them and then did two coats of a high quality glossy exterior paint. I love the results!

Jen
Fantastic job!
ReplyDeleteI do have to say though, that I still kind of want the vintage-y looking towel rack that you had before too!
I'll certainly be pinning this one though! Good work!
Thank you! Loved the shelf as well, however, it was really visually heavy, especially once loaded with towels and accessories and just wasn't right for the space any longer. If you are near the twin cities area, it is being donated to the ReStore. ;)

Jen, what a beautiful transformation!! Fresh and classic and feminine-but-not-too-girly all at once!! We're showing our small powder room a little love and I very literally "now way-ed" and "oh wow-ed" when I saw that we've used very similar items, ha ha. Have a fab weekend! =)
ReplyDeleteIt looks even more fabulous than I had imagined it would!!!!
ReplyDeleteLove the navy cabinets and your shower curtain!!!
Also love that you used hooks instead of the traditional towel rack.
It was from Target about 8 years ago. :) Sorry!!
ReplyDeletexo,
Jen
You did an amazing job!!! Love the colour choices!! Great inspiration for my bathroom reno over at the pinklittlenotebook.com!
ReplyDeleteThat bathroom is so perfect for when I visit!!!! Seriously...amazing job, girlie!!
ReplyDeleteI love your makeover, and I am happily reassured by one detail: I noticed that your sconces are brushed nickel, while your faucet is polished chrome. I just did the same thing in my powder room makeover, and was stressing about whether or not it was the 'right' thing to do. You showed me that it doesn't have to be all matchy-matchy to be beautiful. Thank you SO MUCH for that! Enjoy your beautiful bathroom.
ReplyDeleteSue
the gold details definitely make the room for me. you are so talented and i can't wait to start my own bathroom reno...after a million other things:) did you make the art print?
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful- really great job! What are the room dimensions? We are building a similar layout bathroom- curious if mine might have the same spacious feel
ReplyDeleteJen, I'm dying! It is TOO gorgeous! The gold touches on the frame with the pinks and reds are my favorite. I can't believe you did this all in a week. Stunning!
ReplyDeleteThat is sooooo great! Classic, warm, inviting. If you can't find your house guests they might be hanging in the bathroom!
ReplyDeleteIt looks beautiful! I love all the little details like the gold dipped mason jar!
ReplyDeleteTania
SO glad I saw this! I have been trying to convince hubs that the Allure floor will be perfect for the bathroom!
ReplyDeleteHow did you tackle the edge of the flooring that buts against the tub?
Thanks for the great pics of how your hubs did the cuts and all, so helpful.
Hi Ann!

ReplyDeleteThis is an amazing job! Seriously, the make over is awesome!
ReplyDeleteMelanie ~ www.iheartsharingthings.blogspot.fr
You did a great job. Thanks for sharing. A great combination of modern and classic. I love the towel hooks!
ReplyDeleteI am curious how you feel about the lights in this bathroom now that you have had them for awhile. I am trying to decide what lighting to put in a small bathroom with no windows, and hate it when I'm in someone else's bathroom and can't see a thing when I'm doing my makeup!
ReplyDeleteHi Kimberly!
DeleteWe are loving the amount of light. It seems perfect for the space. We ended up using two 60 watt bulbs so it seems nice and bright.
xo!
Jen
Wow that is gorgeous! Love the color combinations and that lovely shower curtain! Great inspiration for my own bathroom reno!
ReplyDeleteI wanted to ask you abou the mason jar did you dip the bottom of it in paint? And where did you get the tip jar? Wonderful bathroom reveal, great job!
ReplyDeleteHi Carol!
DeleteFor the mason jar, I taped it off and spray painted the bottom with gold spray paint. The tip jar was made from a recycled jar. :)
xo!
Just curious how your floors are holding up a year later? For every good review on the Allure products, I have seen a bad one. We are considering these floors for an upcoming remodeling project and would love your thoughts.
ReplyDeleteWe still personally love the floors. We have had them throughout our entire lower level for a few years now and they have held up really well and we truly appreciate their durability and moisture resistance. I always recommend to use furniture pads on anything that will be moving around on the tops of the floors {really heavy movement may scuff them, but daily use by the dogs does not} We did have a spot where the floor separated a smidge in our lower level {our fault when we installed}, and a little caulk fixed it right up. That is about it, otherwise, I would rave about the floors all day long. :) Best of luck with your reno!
DeleteAdorable accessories! I heart the art work. Where did the smaller floral print come from?
