Guest Bathroom is finished!

I am happy to say I finished all the painting of our guest bathroom last night! I really love the light green with dark wood cabinets. I was torn for a few weeks on which shade to paint the walls (blue or green) because I wanted it to be light and bright! During the day the light from the skylight comes into the bathroom and it looks so fresh, clean, new and just wonderful!




Eventually down the road we will replace the old sink faucet with a newer modern one but its working great for now. Here are the photos of the transformation process. Doesn't it just look SO much nicer?

I am so thrilled with how much nicer it all looks! Below is a rough breakout of what it cost us to do this project. Doing it this way is such an affordable budget friendly way to revamp your dated bathroom...all you have to do is be willing to put in a few weekends and a little elbow grease and you will end up saving a ton of money! A lot of the knick-knacks we already had and I didn't get specific with breaking down the cost of paint bushes, roller, tape. Since we already had that too.

Ace Cabinet Door and Trim Primer with two shots of brown $27 (with $5 off coupon)
Ace latex paint tinted  Dark Brown $30
Ace latex wall paint- Color Veradale $25 (with $5 off coupon)
Towel bar- Ace $10
Hand towel bar- Home Depot $15
Silver pull knobs on cabinets- Ace $10

Total Cost: $117!!!

Guest Bathroom new look!

This past weekend along with all the yard work we did and replacing our kitchen faucet. We also were able to get some more painting in. We transformed the old guest bathroom cabinets from the old dingy wood to a dark chocolate brown.

Here is how it looked before:




And here is how it looks now:


We also painted the old light fixture. It had an old gold backer with wood. It now matches the cabinet paint and hardware below. 

Overall this was a pretty fast project. Took just the weekend to mostly finish. The thing that took the longest was the cabinet doors because we couldn't flip them over until they were dry. We have been really pleased with this special cabinet, door and trim paint we have been using throughout the house but you have to let it dry a day between coats. We put the final coat on the doors on Tuesday night and last night we were finally able to put the doors on to complete the look.



We are really pleased at how updated it makes in the bathroom look. This weekend we will be picking out a light green or light blue color for the walls. Stay tuned for that reveal.
