Hall Bath Makeover – One Room Challenge Week 1
Hi all! ย It’s time for another One Room Challenge from Calling it Home! ย You may remember I started the challenge in the spring when I redid my husband’s office but didn’t finish until late summer. This timeย around I am much better prepared and ready to go. ย We are tackling our hall bath makeover which in need of a desperate makeover.
UPDATE:
SEE WEEK 2 HERE
WEEK 3 HERE
WEEK 4 HERE
WEEK 5 HERE
FINAL REVEAL!!!
This is the bathroom our guests use whenever we have a party, but also the bathroom our overnight guests use. ย At some point, we would like to add another bathroom for our overnight guests, but for now this is what we’ve got.ย
So pretty, right? ย Now that I am writing this post, I am actually wishing I had more “before” photos. ย Oh well! ย I’m going to build my own vanity and change the lights around.
I’m going to build my own vanity and change the lights around. Actually, we are doing a complete gut of the space. ย I will be doing a lot more tiling in this tiny room. ย You know I love tile floors! ย We did go ahead and start, and demo is done, so no turning back now! ย Here is a peak of what we have so far.
I want to go with black walls as of right now, but sometimes I wait until the last minute to see how the room is taking shape to decide what color I want to use. Maybe a really dark blue. ย I received some AWESOME lights from LampsPlus that I am so pumped about. ย I actually saw a larger version in a spa recently and loved them so much I couldn’t believe when I found a mini pendant version online. ย But, that’s for another post.
Speaking of sponsors, I’m so excited to be working with some great companies for this little bath makeover. ย The quality of these brands is really top notch, so stop by and give them some love from me!
