Master Bathroom After!

27 April 2009

Did you think this day would ever come??
Me neither.

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.

(eta: you can find more details on this bathroom makeover here and here)

I'm participating in Susan's 15th Metamorphosis Monday where people post their transformations. Click on the picture to go be inspired:

Have a great Monday~

P.S. !!

Since we're talking makeovers, If you haven't seen Edie's Retro Cottage Kitchen Transformation, it is a must see~absolutely amazing.

  40. Melissa,
    I literally said "Oh my gosh" outloud when I saw your transformation. Then little ears came running and said "What is it mom?" So, we're all enjoying your makeover.

    Thank you so much for linking with me today. I love your blog and visit often. You have great style.

    Blessings galore!
    Miss Edie

  53. B-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.

    ReplyDelete
  54. That looks SO much better!

    I 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.

    ReplyDelete
  55. You did an awesome job. Looks like something out of a magazine.So calming.

    ReplyDelete
  56. Melissa...this is amazing! I'm speechless...beautiful transformation!
