Bathroom Makeover

Who do I think I am...Nate Berkus? Extreme Home Makeover - The Bathroom Edition?

Had fun re-decorating / painting our downstairs bathroom. I'm usually inspired by my friend Brooke at All Things Thrifty to go bold or go home...So I went bold....and thrifty!


1 can of grey paint [from the Ooops Section @ Lowe's]: $5

New side tables that just needed some spray paint: $5 at a Saturday garage sale

Tin sign that had been hanging in bathroom before [just needed a coat of white spray paint & dark-tinted glaze]: FREE [I probably only paid $7 originally for it at Kirkland's...love that store!]

Funky artwork: Dollar Spot @ Target [Originally $2.50 - Clearanced at $1.25 each]

Yellow Vase: Discounted to $1.50 @ Goodwill [Yes, I can even find a discount at the Goodwill!]

Shelf: FREE from a friend's garage sale a couple years back

A & Z: Dollar Spot @ Target: $1.25

Funky artwork: Dollar Spot @ Target $1.25
My favorite feature - Swirly Rug: $5.99 @ Ross

Light covers: $.59/each clearanced at Target

Newest, swankiest place to wash your hands after a Peanut Butter & Jelly sandwich in my house!

Jessica -- Kirkland's is a home decor store in Boca Park [right near Ross & Target]. I think they have great stuff & it's not too expensive either.

Everyone -- Thanks for the nice, nice comments.
