This bathroom has been neglected since the day we moved in. It never gets used. Our kids are too little to have their "own" bathroom, so they use ours with us, leaving the one upstairs for...nothing.
It's tiny. I even think it might have been an addition to this house at some point, but I'm not entirely sure.
This is one case where the bathroom actually looked better when we moved in than it does now. Um, whoops. Observe.
When we moved in:
Now:
I tried to make it the kids' bathroom. I tried to make it cute. Instead, I made it ugly. You'll even notice those pretty paint blotches where I tried out different colors. Ha!
Here's my inspiration for redoing the space simply and easily:
I fell in love the second I saw this on Pinterest. I ran right out and bought the peach and light aqua paint, as well as a mirror. The mirror ended up in our bedroom when it didn't fit over the hole left behind by our current medicine cabinet mirror. Whoops...again. So now I'm keeping my eyes open for a mirror that will fit over that hole.
I went on the hunt for a shower curtain like the one pictured, but ohmygoshyoucan'tfindanythinglikeit!
This is as close as I could come after searching for hours upon hours. It's at least the same color.
It doesn't have the best reviews ever, so I may end up going with this one instead:
(This is the same exact shower curtain we have in our master bathroom, from Target, but the one we have is white and it's held up so well for years and years.)
So the rest of the tentative plans are to get some sort of window treatment, an old quilt rack to paint the light aqua, a mirror that I can paint peach and a trashcan that I can also paint. The walls are already gray so we're set there and I already have a set of brand new white towels just waiting for this makeover!
This bathroom will also get tiled whenever we tile the other bathroom and our kitchen.
