I guess I can’t go more than a month or two without wanting to re-do a bathroom around here. But this update will be very different than our other bathroom renovation. For our upstairs bathroom, I’m giving myself a budget of $100 and will be using a lot of what we already have.
I’m leaving the beadboard and the floor the way they are. The beadboard is painted a glossy white and covers about 80 percent of the walls.
The floors are a dark terra cotta colored ceramic tile. Not really what I would have chosen, but they are neutral enough to stay.
The blue painted vanity brings out the orange in the floor, so maybe the tiles will tone down a little once I change the color.
This room has a mixture of metal finishes going on: chrome and brushed nickel (along with the brass of the shower), but I’m going to overlook that in the interest of saving money. The fixtures themselves aren’t that bad.
