Thank you all so much for your positive feedback on the home tour series yesterday! It's the first time I've really posted lots of photos of the house semi-decorated, and I'm glad you all approve. :)
I wanted to share, today, a little makeover I recently completed in our guest bathroom. I still want to change out a few more things in this bathroom, but it hasn't happened yet.
But, I did manage to bring some leftover gray paint home from the studio a couple of weeks ago, and paint the bathroom cabinet gray. It's one of those standard allen + roth cabinets that you buy from Lowe's. I like allen + roth stuff in general, but this cabinet was not my favorite. Too plain, and too modern to me. In a boring way.
It looked like this in our bathroom:
The dark stained wood and modern pulls were blah. So, I removed the old hardware, filled the holes, and painted it. I also added these new pulls from Home Depot. The Martha Stewart brand hardware is my favorite hardware at a great pricepoint. Don't you agree? I always recommend that brand to clients. The knob is actually allen + roth from Lowe's. I accidentally ordered the wrong sheen for the knob (I ordered brushed nickel, but wanted polished) from the MS Home Depot line, so I ran over to Lowe's and got an allen + roth pull so I could complete my project! I hate that the cooler Martha Stewart hardware is not available in stores - you have to order it. Makes it difficult when you decide to take on a project on a random Tuesday night :) I painted the cabinet, then ordered the pulls, and had to wait for them to come in! Oh well. Patience is a virtue.
Here she is!
I'm really happy with how it came out. Now, I just go in there and look at it. Haha! I really love the new hardware. I want to change out the faucet soon, and maybe eventually the countertops, too.
I also recently added the artwork over the toilet. I made those feather paintings and framed them with those cool art frames from Michaels.
So much to do!

Wow what a difference, looks great! Alison
ReplyDeleteBeautiful!
ReplyDeleteIt’s always surprising how a simple paint job can transform the overall look of a room. That grey is quite lovely and brings out the rest of the decor in the room, whereas when it was plain black your eye was drawn to that straight away and you sort of didn’t notice the other features as much. I have a bit of an obsession about bathrooms myself as I am always in and out of them fitting central heating and leaks in my job as a plumber so I have seen hundreds of designs over the years.
