Almost exactly a year later we had this...
We need some art in here! |
We bought the vanity about 6 months before actually putting it in. We got the sink and cabinet for $250 at Ikea when we were there for something else and saw that it was being discontinued and was on sale. It has the perfect amount of room and since it is a floating cabinet makes the bathroom feel larger.
I loveeee this mirror. I found it at HomeGoods for $40! I was planning on buying a regular mirror at Ikea and adding trim to it but this was even better and close to the same price.
This is the old pantry from the kitchen. We took the door off of it and it has enough storage for all of our sheets, towels, cleaning supplies, etc.
The glass shower door was our most expensive bathroom purchase but my husband really wanted one. It was $400. It sat in our house in the box for a few months before getting installed and I was veryyy nervous about it breaking. It is easy to clean and I think it helps the bathroom look bigger and feel more open. It was pretty easy for my husband to install following the instructions in the box.
Our massive rain shower head. Something we knew we wanted from the beginning! You can see we kept the original tile surround (and the tub of course). It would not be our first choice but it is in good condition.
Confession, I have a lot of shampoo...But anyways. This shelf works great to store everything in the shower. I have seen them at Bed Bath and Beyond, Lowe's, Home Depot, and Amazon. I believe ours was $30 at Lowe's.
This is our amazing light that was $90. Now it make not look like much but we actually bought it because it is a light AND a fan! I had never heard of such a thing until I saw this.
These blinds are from Ikea. We have the same ones in the walk-in closet. We bought them right after we moved in and realized after they are the wrong size...They should either cover all the trim or be small enough to go inside the window frame. Fail. I don't care enough to change them right now though.
Here is our lovely toilet. Exciting I know. What is exciting is that it is a dual flush toilet which is more energy efficient and saves us money. So it is exciting! By the way you can see in the below picture that we never caulked around the bottom of the molding or painted the pre-primed molding...Full disclosure here. It has been a year. Working on that.
And here is a shot from the bedroom. You can see that we do not have a door. Still. Working on that.
That is the whole bathroom! Except for what we did with the nook where the old closet used to be...It has to do with make-up and jewelry...
Our total cost for everything for the bathroom was almost $2000. It felt like a lot to us but I know it is less than most bathroom renovations and we now have a bigger more usable space that will work for us the whole time we live in this house.
