Bathroom Renovation

Before and After photos of the Bathroom

Before:
This is also the only before photo we have from when the previous owners lived here. Not much has changed in this bathroom since they first bought it minus new tile and maybe the paint. If that's a new tub I'm not convinced. The walls were white, the drawer hardware was awful and falling apart too. The lights were atrocious neons too.
After:
We went with green and white which complemented the slightly salmon tile. The green is a little bit brighter than we expected, but it looks good to us at least. My shower curtain even matches with some pale grene leaves. Our towels will match one day. :P


The lighting makes a huge difference in here. Andre had to do alot of handy work to get it right. After taking the cover and removing the neons, the wires were on the far side of the box. This means he had to construct a new hole in the center to run a wire so the light would be center.


I just happened to find this at a local artisan's show. It was made by a husband and wife team. He cut the metal and she would paint it. Then he would make the carved design which on this is a flock of birds. It just so happens to have the perfect green to match the walls. I wish it photographed better. This does not do it justice.

Don't forget the nice hardware update. This is just a temporary redo for here. At some point we'll probably renovate the entire thing with new tub, toilet, and sink cabinet. I wish there was room for a big tub, but we'll see. That'll be another year.
