I’m bummed that I don’t have any before pictures of this bathroom. The reason is I was cleaning the bathroom one day and decided then and there that the wallpaper had to come down, so I just started pulling at it, and before long, I was standing in the room, pouting, with a pile of wallpaper all over the floor (and half-glued wallpaper still on the wall — who knew this wasn’t a bare hands job?). I did grab a cell phone picture of the wallpaper border, which was all hummingbirds:
And the rest of the wallpaper was this white paper with tiny flowers. That’s your feel of the before.
And the after! I painted the room B. Moore Clinton Brown. I found that mirror on clearance at Home Goods for 24 bucks!
The framed photo is a picture I took of Gloria checking out a ladybug at the park:
Here’s the other wall of the bathroom. I spray painted the existing light fixture a satin nickel color and am looking for new glass shades to put on it. I don’t love the tiles, but for now, they have to stay.
The curtains are made from an Amy Butler fabric and trimmed with awesome beads (which cost more than the fabric!). I got a sewing machine for my birthday and spent $300 on fabric for the house. 3 months later, I still haven’t figured out the stupid machine, so my amazingly talented friend Kara sewed up the curtain for me. Thank you, Kara!
What’s a pretty way to keep a bathroom smelling fresh and clean? A vase filled with soap!
And that’s our new bathroom! Amazing what a coat of paint and a few accessories can do!
Love it!!! I can only imagine how awful the before was! And that picture of your daughter is just too much!!!! How sweet 🙂
Oh my gosh…it is beautiful! I love the valence and the soap in the hurricane! So cute! May have to steal that idea…
Looks Great!
Everything looks great; I especially love the paint color! Also: where did the silver tree art come from? I love it!

Looks great! I love the vase with soap.
Thanks, everyone! Jen, there’s this awesome tree painting at Pier 1 that I love, but it’s 300 bucks 😦 So for now, my “good enough” 12-dollar homemade version is there.

Andi. I love the bathroom. You have an eye for sweet design. Will you come over and decorate my house?
Thanks for the kind words. Your too much.
Love you. ~Kara
I love this!! So pretty. that valance is adorable! Love the color choices. Nice job
Fellow nestie here. I love your half bath redo. The fabric is gorgeous, and I love the idea of filling a vase with soap! We have TONS of glass vases and hurricanes still sitting around from our wedding 5+ years ago… I think I need to go buy some soap!
