A Bathroom Makeover

Last week I told you that I got a wild hair and painted one of our bathrooms upstairs. This is primarily a guest bathroom so I wanted it to be fresh and inviting. I had a sample cup of Palladian Blue and was dying to paint a room that color, so this was the perfect candidate. 

I'm loving the new, brighter feel and hopefully my future guests will too! I actually sent a picture to my best friend who uses it most often when she visits and asked her how she liked her new bathroom. She loved it and agreed its a huge improvement. 

The printable is from here.

Here's a reminder of what I started off with. You can see the space was dark, and lacked crispness or a calming effect. 

And, here's another after shot! I'll say it again, "The easiest way to transform a space is with paint!"

 

Not only did this space get a whole new feel, but I spent very little money. I shopped my own home to style the space which was free!! 

Here's the breakdown on what I spent:

Paint- Benjamin Moore Palladian Blue $30

Shower Curtain- Target $25

Acrylic Tray- The Container Store $10

Do the math, and that's a whopping $65! Not bad considering the transformation!
