Do A Bathroom Makeover for less than $150!!

July 20, 2017 · In: Art, Bathroom, Before and After

It doesn’t hurt to have a few supplies on hand, but doing a bathroom makeover for less than $150 isn’t as hard as you think!  Do you remember the before shots of the bathroom?

Here’s before we bought the house… nothing like stripes and gold hardware!

Then our weird, limbo stage with half painted walls…

Here’s how we did it:

1.Paint!  It is the best way to make an impact without spending a lot of money.  After sanding down the walls, I painted them Chelsea Green by Behr.  (The marquee brand promises to be one coat and it really is!)

2. Switch out the light. For $99, we had instant visual impact.

3. Replace the mirror. We brought in the mirrors that we didn’t end up using in our master bathroom remodel.  (Only $47 each if you need to buy something affordable!  Even if I had bought them for this project we would have still been under $200.)

4. Use wall art you already own.  The wall art and accessories were all things we have collected throughout our travels.

5. Splurge on cute accessories.  I bought this bunny hook ages ago and finally found a spot for it!

6. Shop the Outlets!  The shower curtain came from the Restoration Hardware outlet.

7. Think outside the box.  Why can’t you have a side table in the bathroom?  It’s storage and cuteness all in one!  (My Drum Table is from Target.)

8. Make Your Everyday items Cool.  I love using apothecary jars to make body gels prettier and wire baskets for toilet tissue!

9. If you can’t replace the floor, add an inexpensive rug!  (H&M Home has super cute ones)

10. Go big in small places.  Don’t let size keep you from going big on design.  Your money will always go further in small areas!

11.  Change Your hardware.  We instantly updated our cabinets with the pulls that used to be in our Copenhagen bathroom!  I also used them to make cool DIY boxes!  And we made over a kitchen once with them, too!

Comment FREE for more tips, styling hacks (& links if you want them, too!) 

Guys!! If there’s one thing I love about decorating - it’s decorating for free! Your backyard (or even front yard!) are full of great decor! Nature walks become a treasure hunt and your world inside your home can reflect all the beautify of the outdoors. 

Your vessels, vases, bowls, trays… they all become art with these additions!

But why stop there?! What about the food you eat? Bowls of nuts, trays of dried fruit, vessels overflowing with butternut squash and pumpkins?! Eeekkk! It’s all so beautiful! It’s such an honest way to create seasonal decor while also making seasonal living even better! 

Your books? Don’t leave them sitting crammed on a shelf! Open them up to a favorite page that inspires you to live well and even what’s on the menu this week!

The best things in life really are free and you wouldn’t believe the things you can use to create these magnificent moments of joy in your life!

The only question now is… should we make butternut squash chili, butternut squash soup in sourdough bowls or roast them with maple & brown sugar? 

Love you all! XxV

Sorry to break from fall for a minute but the Grand Duchess is BACK IN STOCK!! I waited a year to get mine last year and they sold out so fast that I couldn’t get more for our own home or projects so I already bought two more!! They are WORTH THE HYPE!! I’m tearing up just thinking about how pretty it is with the twinkling lights (& Jack is trying to convince me to put them up now! Haha!)

But seriously, this tree is 1/5 of the price of the designer versions and is truly exquisite!

Ok! I’ll stop talking so you can go get yours!  Yipppeeeee!!!!!
