Amazing Low Budget Bathroom Makeover [before and after]

Looking for specifics regarding this makeover? Here they are...

Oh my goodness...this was one of those projects that I thought may never end. There were several really time-consuming projects involved-painting the cabinets, making the framed mirrors, adding accent tiles, and painting the faucets and shower frame.

But there were also lots of trial and error projects that ended up being...well...errors. Like the torn paper wall treatment that was scrapped, and then the glazed wall treatment that turned out to be too busy. Then there was the wrestling back and forth with ideas of how to cover the brass shower frame. And let's not forget the two days spent cutting little tiny wood pieces that I thought would end up as frames for the mirrors.

I'm sure there were more scrapped projects that I'm just not remembering right now. But at least it's finished...FINALLY.Here's a quick before and after view before we get to the details...

Now let's start at the beginning, shall we? Here's how the room started out.  The cabinets were in good shape, but they were just so plain.  And that sea of mirrors above the vanity was more than a little overpowering for the room....

The flowery wallpaper just added to the busy look, and then there's the pinkish carpet...yikes!!

The bathtub area definitely had potential. I just hated that you had to look past a really bright brass-framed shower to see the tub and the window!

And there's the brass-framed shower, in all its glory. It was the first thing you see when entering the bathroom, which means it was visible from the bedroom. Not good. Not good at all.
