Bathroom Reveal-Done For Now

The shower curtain is made from leftover fabric I already had that was used as the topper for the familyroom drapes. There is a second rod layered behind with a regular shower curtain.  Both go to the ceiling which creates the illusion of more space and adds a little drama too.

 Transferware dishes and a painting I already had add.

A favorite painting in an onate frame adds some unexpected glam.  (It is actually a print and has non-glare glass over it which gives it the look of an oil.  The glass will protect it from any moisture.)

I always look at Ross and TJMaxx for affordable towels and I found some really pretty ones to layer together.  I kept the color scheme just gold and cream.

This pretty little art work I found at Goodwill some time back and it works perfectly in the bathroom.

Remember the builder grade medecine cabinet, I gave you a tutorial on how to remove it and patch the wall here.   I had already replaced the slab mirror with this one a couple of years ago, but it did need a facelift, the gold antique finish dressed it up for now.

The medecine cabinet gone and a towel bar and picture in it’s place.  So much better, don’t you think?  I also hung some of the new towels on the guest rod behind the door. (This is perfect when space is limited to hold extra towels when a guest needs them.)

The accessories that I had already ordered from Restoration Hardware arrived.  They give the room an additional touch of class.  (My new faucet is on backorder, it should be here in 3 to 6 week.)

I love the frenchy design in silver and gold

I think this looks pretty good for shopping the house and being totally cheap thrify. I made a tank topper tray that I will show you later, complete with a tutorial.

Glamour shot with the overhead light turned off.  I love the shimmer of the gold.

From a jungle theme to – – –

this.      So, what do you think, how did I do?

The finishing touch when the new faucet arrived.
