Did you think this day would ever come??
Me neither.
Okay, so here's a reminder of before:
Okay, so here's a reminder of before:
And here it is today:
Don't look too closely: you'll see that I need to majorly touch up paint, the sink on the right has a hole in it, the baseboards need to be caulked and painted, but it's a hundred gajillion times better than it was before and I went a whole week without breaking anything.
Are you proud of me?? :)
I promise I'll give you more close-ups, details, tutorials, etc. this week, but I told you I would have a surprise today, so here she is.

Blessings galore!
Miss Edie

ReplyDeleteOh. My!
ReplyDeleteIt doesn't even look like the same room. What a change. I love everthing you have done. I am really liking the shelf across the back what a great idea. Robin
I was totally shocked!! Love it! Looks like lots of work, but obviously worth it! Now what can I go paint!?:) Great job! Susan
ReplyDeleteOk, silly me that is not a shelf. Its with wall with trim on it.
ReplyDeleteOk, I still like it, LOL Robin
Woweee girl! Now that is a professional caliber transformation. Way to go! I'm doing Met Monday too! Stop by and see me! Kim
ReplyDeleteGirlfriend...you really out did yourself this time. That.Is.Absolutely Beautiful. Seriously, one of the BEST before and afters I've ever seen!!! I love every single thing about it.
ReplyDelete~Amanda
That is completely stunning! I can't believe how beautiful it is! You are a VERY talented lady!
ReplyDeleteThe transformation is simply stunning. It was so outdated before and now it is so fresh and current. I love the color and all the wonderful white trim. Just gorgeous. Hugs, Marty
ReplyDeleteHoly Moly lady! I love it! I see those cute "M" plates! :) Looks amazing, nice work!
ReplyDeleteWOw--great job!!! What a beautiful bathroom!!!!
ReplyDeleteB-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L! What a transformation! I love your black cabinets...it's something I want to do in my bathroom too.
ReplyDeleteThat looks SO much better!
ReplyDeleteI cant wait till we can redo our bathroom. We have old brownish/pinkish/orangish & white tile halfway up the wall, its so ugly. And the mosiac tile on the floor is shades of brown. The vanity is huge and ugly, and the white formica with gold flakes counter is BAD. The cast iron tub has seen much better days. We gave it a slight makover (new paint, new ceiling light, new doors) but it needs a redo.
You did an awesome job. Looks like something out of a magazine.So calming.
ReplyDeleteMelissa...this is amazing! I'm speechless...beautiful transformation!
ReplyDeleteSusan
GORGEOUS!! what an amazing transformation. Great job.
ReplyDeleteSimply WOW!! That was the ugliest before I've seen in a long time...........you did a fantastic job on the re-do!!
ReplyDeleteyou totally rocked that out-of-date bathroom ! i love your new bathroom's simplicity.
ReplyDeleteWow what a completely wonderful remodel!! It sure updated it from that other era it was in, way to go, I love this!!

ReplyDeleteOh WOW that is BEAUTIFUL! I think I actually said WOW outloud as I scrolled to the after!!!
ReplyDeleteGREAT job! - now you want to come to my house?
~TidyMom
FAAAAAAABULOUS job!! Holy smokes. I feel proud to know you. I know who to call when we get the bug to renovate..... :)
ReplyDeleteOH MY GOODNESS!!!!! That's an amazing job! you should be so proud! ABSOLUTELY Beautiful!!!!
ReplyDeleteAmazing transformation! Looks so serene & inviting! I love that you put 2 framed mirrors above the sinks instead of keeping the big single mirror. Also love the black painted cabinets and the paint color you used on the walls!
ReplyDeleteThat had to be the most hideous before...I cannot imagine having to live with that! Your after is absolutely breathtaking! Gorgeous!

I am totally stunned and amazed. I hope you sent in your audition tape to Design Star, girl. This is fabulous. I'm a new follower. Please visit my blog and post one of your wonderful projects on my boardwalk bragfest. I'm going to be bragging about this for a long time. In the meantime, I'm adding this project to my to do list, as well.
ReplyDeleteI had that same bathroom in my first home. Instyle at the time.
ReplyDeleteYour makeover brought back old memories and a vision of what it
could be. Loved your makeover. Thank you for sharing all you & your
friends do to make a space better.
