Bathroom DIY Redo

...and by DIY, I mean, HYHDI (have your husband do it)

Before
Blah.  This is my girls' bathroom and it was time for a change.
Same PB shower curtain we've had since our apartment in Cali, sold it for $20 on KSL.  Score!

Painted it my favorite blue that's in our laundrey room.  Notice typical builder mirror.


And presto chango!  Jonathan did it all...awesome frame around the mirror.

Cute waiscotting with hooks for the girls' towels.

Jonathan:  So, pretty much you are just setting in stone that our next baby will be a girl (not an annoucement) with the pink towels.

Me:  What are you talking about?  I painted it blue for heaven's sake!


A big thank you to my brother Tyler for letting us use all of his tools/saws/air compressors/nail guns/etc.
A big thank you to my cute husband Jonathan for making his crazy wife's ideas come to fruition with only a few choice 4-letter words being uttered. 
And thank you to House of Smiths for my inspiration total idea copying (seriously, check out that pantry).

  1. I saw that bathroom on House of Smiths too and wish I could do the same thing! Did you make the little birdie art?

  4. LOVE LOVE LOVE the bathroom. Do you want to come to North Carolina and do mine? They are kind of last on our remodel list and are currently sporting plywood floors. So to say I have bathroom eny is a little of an understatement.

  5. Love this! The wainscoting (sp?) is my favorite and now I need to do this in my home! What shower curtain did you end up using instead of the old one?
    Am I just missing it in the pics?

    And how did you get your hubby to take action and do it? Genius idea, really.
