Master Bathroom Reveal – Finally!
I am fairly certain this has been the longest bathroom remodel in history.
My history, anyway…
We started last May on our bathroom remodel, and worked at
it as time and money allowed. It was a long time coming, but I so love the end result!
I will show some before/after shots, then just focus on the new!
We pretty much gutted the bathroom (we meaning my hubby)
and everything except the toilet is new.
Here is the back wall when we took the old bathtub out – and how it looks today.
Here is the old cabinet (with one of the new knobs on just to see how it looks) and the new cabinet we painted.
Here is yet one more view!
Here is a shot of the entire bathroom before:
Yep – gotta love the bright row of lights above the sink – along with the magnifying mirror
which I still have. I can’t help it – I need to know the worst before I walk out in public..
My husband spotted this dent/ding cabinet at the back of the Home Depot store, and we snapped it up.
I sanded and painted it, and we were really happy with the result.
We got most of our things from Home Depot – and did great on the cost’s.
Especially because we (meaning my husband) did all the work ourselves.
I got the knobs from TJ Maxx – my fave store!
The mirror came from Ross – another favorite!
We tiled everything – my husband has become quite good at it! And it can really be so
low in cost when you do it yourself!
This tile on the counter is granite, and was sooooo
much cheaper to do this way vs. a slab, which has to be cut. This is not a high grade of
granite, but it is perfect for the spot and what it is used for. The tiling across the front and back matches
the tile we used for the bathtub/shower surround. The back is not finished yet, but if
I wait to do the reveal when everything is done, it will be time to remodel again!
Just facing the facts!
I got this cabinet at TJ Maxx – another dent/ding special, for $50 – I love it!
I bought regular curtains for the shower, and just use a vinyl liner.
I could not find the look I was going for in a shower curtain.
I was really happy with the floor. The tile color is both attractive
and good at hiding dirt – two of my favorite things!
Here is the view from the bedroom.
So what do you think? I wanted it to be soothing, soft, and romantic -
Did we make it? Well, all I can say is I love to be in there now!
If I had room for a coffee pot and an cozy chair it could become
my new office! I really would have to get rid of that toilet paper
though – it really jumps out at you!
If you are interested, here are links to 3 of the projects I made for this room:
Thanks so much for stopping by!

WOW! That’s a great job!!! Congratulations! We did a guest bathroom remodel that took a full week (non-stop) and didn’t even do half the work you guys did. I love the granite top and the back tile around the counter. LOVE it! Amazing transformation!

Oh yes I like it, think it’s the look you were going for too. See some dresser at yard sales (vintage) that I could maybe do that granite on top of, What a good idea.

It looks great, you must be so happy. All of the tile work is so nice. I really like the backsplash by the sink. I also like that you didn’t match the mirror frame with the cabinets. Good job.

Lovely! I have been working with a British co-worker for the past 4 days so “Lovely” is the word of the moment. But it truely is lovely. I have one little tip for you if you want it. I always cut a circle in the middle of my toliet rug so that the rug fits right up to the toilet and looks like it was ment to be there. I never buy the toilet rugs because they are too narrow but regular rugs are too wide so I remedied it with the small circle. Just and idea for you.

You and your husband did a fantastic makeover! Top to bottom! I love that it is updated and still neutral enough to suit everyone. I agree with you about shower curtains–I have been looking for one and may have to go your route. Great job-thanks for sharing it. Remodelaholic sent me over!
