We don't mess around, oh no,
We don't mess around,
We just get down...
That was one of my favorite chants in high school for football, but the reason I like it now, is because we (I) didn't mess around when it came to doing the bathroom, I just did it! I started on Sunday, deciding to re-do it; Monday, choosing the color of paint, and pricing the new mirror, light bar, and such; Tuesday, buying all the stuff- new fixtures, and supplies, including paint; Wednesday taping the room (a huge chore I hate!); Thursday painting till midnight, and taking this 1/2 done picture; and Friday, finishing the paint, and with the help of our sweet neighbors, hanging the new medicine cabinent, light bar, shelf, clock and towel hanger! WOW! It is finally completed! I just bought the rugs today, decorated the new shelf/cabinet and hung the beautiful curtain (thanks, Mom!). Oh, and you can't see it in the pics, but I bought this adorable white basket with green gingham lining, that I sit on top of that shelf- and my mom is going to make green gingham shower curtain rings- I can't wait! I so love this room now, I think I could spend all day in there! Too bad it's a bathroom, and my children and husband are in there more than me!! Just kidding!!
So, this is the 1/2 done pics, since I forgot to take a complete before: The room was always just white walls, and I had a floral shower curtain, it did match, but we got that curtain for a wedding gift nearly 10 years ago...SO time for a change...I am not into floral bathrooms anymore...the cabinet hanging there was so rickety, and it took up nearly the whole wall and stuck out really far- hideous; and the medicine cabinet and light bar are clearly outdated- don't miss them at all!
And these are the after...so much nicer, in fact, I think we decided that we just might stay in this house another year or so...we'll see...for now I am just going to enjoy it!
Oh, and another great part about the re-do, it only cost me around 200 bucks, including supplies! This is awesome! Just needed a few days and a few dollars, and Viola!

Way, way cute! I love the pedestal sink and the darling shelf. We have the same towel hooks. Good color choice. It turned out great. I love it. way to get it done!
It looks so fresh and clean. Not like the other way was dirty. I hope you know what I mean. The color matches a wall in my house. Anyway, it looks really nice.
I LOVE the color and accessories! Way to go for doing it so dang fast! It looks great.
