    How to Make a Pink Tub Look Cool

    October 13, 2022 /

    Small updates can make a big difference in making your 1950s pink tub and tile look and feel like it’s supposed to be there! I’m sharing how I updated our bathroom without tearing them out! A few months ago while I was very pregnant with our daughter, Clara, Dad and Brandon helped me update the en suite bathroom in our master bedroom. It was a project I’d been brainstorming for a while and the timing ended up being perfect! The transformation was captured for an episode of Today’s Homeowner if you want to watch it in video form here. Add Wallpaper to Ceiling The first and most obvious thing we…

    Updating Our 1950s Bathroom with Style

    Light, Bright and Fun Bathroom Updates All of the sources we used to renovate our hall bathroom to make it lighter, brighter, and a lot more fun for our kids and guests! You can’t have a post about a bathroom remodel without including what it looked like before! This is how it looked when we closed on the house. Then we stripped the wallpaper, changed out the sconces and mirror and switched out the curtains for frosted windows. And she looked a lot more like this.

    How To Install Beautiful Privacy Window Film

    October 19, 2020 /

    Quickly Add Privacy to Your Bathroom A quick way to add privacy to bathroom windows is with frosted privacy window film. You still get natural light streaming in without dust-collecting curtains. Each of our bathrooms had shear curtains in the windows from the previous owners when we bought it. They were not my style and added to the dated style of the bathroom, but they provided much needed privacy. Our master bathroom is on the side of our house and standing at the vanity you can see straight out to the street. Which means the reverse is also true.😳 The hall bathroom was less-pressed for privacy from passersby. But you…

We had to tear down the tree from my front yard because it was all over the roof and a hazard to the safety of my house. After it sat behind my garage for about a year, we drove it to a…

    Small Bathroom Addition, Big Style We recently completed our master bathroom addition. Here’s how I packed a big style punch into the small space. Accent Wall I’ll start with the most obvious part of the bathroom, the tile accent wall. It’s the first thing you notice when you walk in and where we spent the most money, besides the framing and roof.

Before-Laundry Room/Hallway At the beginning of this project featured on an episode of Today’s Homeowner, the laundry room served as a hallway to the small, adjacent powder room. It also lacked storage and opportunities for organization.

    Putting Together All the Elements of a Bathroom The design, style, and layout of our small, master bathroom addition. Traditional meets modern while balancing budget and splurge! Finalize Floor Plans After all of my thoughts and musings on bathroom vanities, showers, toilet rooms, and closets, I had a pretty good idea of the layout and measurements of our bathroom addition. But in order to get a permit for building, you need more official floor plans than a sketch on a piece of scrap paper.?

    Bathroom Planning: Closets

    January 21, 2019 /

    What’s In A Closet? No, not all master bathrooms have closets. But we’re making room for a very small one in our bathroom addition, and it brought up some interesting dilemmas for me! So just like with my post on planning for a vanity, choosing between a shower and/or tub, and a separate toilet room, I’m sharing my planning questions with you! Consider Possible Layouts When you are drawing up plans for a new bathroom, it’s easy enough to allocate space to a closet. BUT, what you can’t see on a set of blueprints is how does that closet function? Is there enough space for it to be a walk-in…

    Bathroom Makeover Without Removing Tile With all of my potty talk lately, I thought I’d jump ahead of all the planning to inspire you with a finished bathroom we completed recently for Today’s Homeowner. Beige and Dark Before The bathroom was in great shape but aesthetically it needed a little improvement. I loved the shape of the tiles, but the color just felt dated and drab.
