Guest Bathroom Redo- Before and After

The guest bathroom- it has been neglected. We have pretty much left it as it was when we moved in. My mom has been itching to change it, I think. She is the one who has to use it when she is here. So she is coming to stay with us in Nov. and offered to paint it for me. That got me thinking about it.....and I started with the plain white shower curtain, adding the patches. Then I dyed the towels chocolate brown, then the rugs. The shelf got a coat of brown spray paint. By that time I could not wait- and this past Saturday I got to paint.

Dave was so sweet and took charge of the kids for most of the day while I went to buy the paint, put a primer coat on, paint 2 coats of the aqua color, and lay down a few floor tiles to try to cover the linoleum. I am not done, and still have most of the edging work left to do. At least this gives us an idea. Mom, it will be all ready for you when you come (***that means we can paint the hallway :)

BEFORE- pink sponge painted on, gold fixtures.

Not quite after....the gold light fixture will be spray painted brown and the mirror is not completely painted yet.

Stick-on floor tiles. I need to buy 16 more. I am so terrified about cutting them to fit around the toilet. But if we can figure that out, it is a really cheap way to change the floor. The tiles cost about .60 cents each.

BEFORE- when I was growing up I had a pink room, so a lot of this stuff was from there- now where will I put it? A yard sale?

Before- gold edged mirror

New look for the drawers and cabinet door- brown spray paint and decoupage. New look for the white and pink rug with brown dye and white paint.

Can't wait til it is DONE! There are built in shelves next to the shower that are getting a makeover too. I am so impatient- maybe I will stay up late tonight and finish!?!?! Or maybe tomorrow for homeschool we will have a painting and floor laying lesson?!?!?!!?
