In with the New
I’m just pleased as punch with my new master bathroom mini-remodel! I had a vision on a Pinterest board that I’ve been building for years. One Tuesday morning about a month ago, I woke up and started ordering the pieces. It was time.
How many times does a Pinterest board come to life? Successfully? In my life, not too many times. So I celebrate!
We moved into our new home in November 2017, and, with the help of my awesome mom and aunt, we repainted about 10 of 13 rooms. The master bath was one of them.
I painted it a lovely blue called Quietude, which I had in my old home and liked. But I’ve never liked it here. I don’t know if it was the lighting, the lack of natural light or what, but it always felt too “blue lagoon” to me. Here are some pics, which are now “Before” pics…
And so, as quarantine goes, I’ve been spiffing some things up around here. This is probably my most visual project, and, like I said, I’m pleased with it! The details, the daintiness…. the “After.”
Those mirrors! That light!
A little story on the light…. I spent more than I budgeted, initially. Then, when I found out this particular light was on backorder and wouldn’t arrive for months but had already fallen in love, I found it on Ebay for only $20 more!
So yes, as I said. Over-budget! But lovely!
I promise, I did save some money in other ways, like using paint I had left over from my mudroom project on the vanity and spray-painting my old black knobs with gold paint. I’ve also sold some pieces from the old bathroom.
So, if you need me, I might be in a bubble bath, or just burning some candles in the dark of night, in a room I didn’t need to redecorate, but wanted to redecorate.
And so, I did. I do the things.
In with the new!

Looks great!! I painted kitchen cabinets and all the trim throughout the house. Well, with the help of felix. I love the new mirrors and your light. Are the flowers hand painted?
They are decals from Urbanwalls! Called watercolor. But yes, just vinyl. Thanks for the comment! Love you!
