I am very pleased with all the elements coming together for a shabby chic, clean, fun children's bathroom.
okay i just couldnt stand not showing this to you guys. Casey and I havent found the trim we want to use above the beadboard and are planning on finding that and installing in the coming weeks. However i think these small changes created a high impact change in this very tiny space. We only spent 385.00 on the whole remodel... I very carefully shopped and found this incredible idea over here.
Rhonda at southernhospitalityblog.com used beadboard wallpaper found at Home Depot and Lowe's and it creates the same look as actualy wooden beadboard but is much cheaper and easier to remove for the next owner. I am so thankful to her bringing this gem to blog land.
We still need to find some tiny lampshades to put over the chandelier's bulbs.
Remember this post where we picked out our accessories?
Time to demo so we can decorate!!
snake showerhead???
There is a special place in this world for these things....
There are no words for this light fixture.
I know the pics are up in reverse order but i am using my sisters laptop and she has some funky settings for the mouse on and it wont allow me to load the pics in order.
old flooring on the left, view of aweful tiles, new flooring on the right.
okay when we moved in, the walls were tan, underneath reveals a much worse color.... deep deep rust. if it were fire brick i could see making it work but such a dark color for such a small space screams troubles.... so we thought again.. GREEN.
I know my whole dang house is green but again its the color of growth and prosperity..... here is the whole patched from the aweful tiles.
This is the hole where we removed the 9 tile backsplash behind the sink. Such an unusual addition to a home.
This is the rug and the basis for the bathroom design. Super shabby chic. (before and afters coming) all we really have left to do is paint the beadboard, attach the trim, and resecure the pedestal sink to the wall....
here is our cherry blossom shower curtain.... this is our precious chandelier in the new bathroom....
As we are buying for our sugar lumps christmas and birthday home reno has been put on hold till the new year. of course bargains will be purchased in the mean time so be prepared for those posts. Currently we are working on anna carolines bathroom. It has a wretched 9 tile backsplash of mexican tiles behind her pedestal sink. As of now we have replaced the flooring in her bathroom. it was an AWEFUL grey faux brick vinyl. YUCK. The walls need painting. Beadboard hung. Art painted...(knowing me it will probably be a bunny, a bird, or a bible verse)
Here is a sneak peak of what i am doing. I am not typically a shabby chic type, however our babysitter Candace Danielson just bought some super yummy bedding from a store here in memphis called Bella Vita
