First, Thank you to Linda at Calling It Home Blog for providing us with the amazing motivator that is the One Room Challenge. Every time I do one of these I think to myself, "Why didn't I do something about this room sooner?"

I chose to refresh our neglected Master Bathroom.
It was not a remodel - nothing was removed, replumbed, etc.
I used more creativity (I hope) than ca$h!
Let's take a (brief 'cause it's not good!) moment to remember where we started.
A dingy, yellowed faux bamboo cabinet, mirrors and such stored in the 80's garden tub, and paint cans waiting and ready!

And here is where we ended up...
The yellow-y thrifted cabinet is now the Ravishing Coral beauty and the star of the room.
China cabinets - not just for dishes anymore.
The same cabinets got a coat of glossy white paint and some new gold hardware.
The black and white tile floor stayed but I bought a seagrass runner from IKEA back in the Summer and it's fabulous. We have 2 sinks, a shower and a tub. That's too many little rugs.
The zebra rug is an indoor/outdoor rug that I snagged online, on sale, for the Black is Back Library ORC and it didn't make the cut. Trying it out in here.
Thrifted Chinoiserie lamp in my coral-y orange. Such a find.

The fabric on the shower curtain was love at first sight.
And a little Greek Key trim never hurt anything!
A vintage bamboo magazine rack holds necessities.
I'm not sure that painting is staying but for now...
And the banana leaf fabric cornices weren't mentioned before
because the day before I was supposed to post my reveal
this is what they looked like -
It's fabulous! No really.....that coral china cabinet is quite the star! You styled it up so nicely and I love the gallery wall! So glad you aded the cornice at the last minute.....you sound like me:) Great job girl!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you Sherry!! I wouldn't add stuff at the last minute except that every single time it seems to be the thing that changes the whole project and then I feel validated to run around like a crazy person the next time!! I love my coral cabinet a lot. Like a lot! thank you!
DeleteOh my word!! (Shirley Temple) :-) I love your little bathroom. It's so colorful and pretty! I love colors and this certainly grabbed my attention. Great job!

ReplyDeleteThank you Jennifer. I love that bamboo cabinet too. When I saw it I knew that coral was the color for it!!! I'm going to enjoy it for a long time!
DeleteVery nice. Love the coral hutch and the shower curtain fabric. What is the fabric?
ReplyDeleteThank you! The fabric is from A Williamsburg Collection and is called Braganza. This colorway is spice, I believe.
