Guest Bathroom

The peach walls in the bathroom weren't me, I had nothing that matched peach.  I painted them the same Aged Hazelnut pale yellow that I had used in the master bedroom (mainly because I bought three gallons of it thinking the bedroom would take a lot... it took less than one gallon)

 

 

These changes kept me happy for a few months until we could attack the vanity and floor.

Over the Christmas break I decided it was time to tear out the guest bathroom. The wall behind the vanity had some water damage so the sheet-rock had to go.

 

 

Time for new floors. I decided to go with a 18x18 linoleum tile. It was easy to put down and I think the dark color will go well with the antique mantel that is going in as the mirror unit (see next section).

Before and After

I purchased an antique mantel from Muzzy's Alley in Greenville back before we ever bought the house. I loved it and it was the right price. However, this house does not have a fireplace. So I wasn't sure what I was going to do with the mantel, but I wanted to incorporate it somehow.

Leave it to Pinterest to give me an idea... Use it in the bathroom to create an updated look with a classic flare.

It is still a work in progress, but this gives you an idea of what it will eventually look like.

October 2013

After taking several months off from house remodeling, we finally made some progress on the guest bathroom. 

We still need to put up trim and finish a few other minor areas, but any progress is good progress!

We decided to go for as much of an industrial look as we could make look decent.  So we removed the old fixtures and updated them with some pipe-made fixtures that we were able to put together.
