Before: In Need of a Refresh
A gorgeous pedestal sink was no match for the busy wallpaper in this petite powder room. The dated floral pattern drew the focus, away from the of the classic sink. But it took only $195 to completely transform the look of this bathroom.
After: Refreshed & Refocused
With the wallpaper and mauve blinds long gone, the bathroom was ready for its new look. The chocolate-brown paint and ivory wainscoting visually break up the small space. While the fresh walls are the most prominent feature of this makeover, its polish comes in the form of little details, such as the freshly painted mirror and window trim, the new chrome faucet (a steal at $36), and Roman shades in a striking damask print. Although inexpensive, small changes like these can transform a bathroom's look.
Before: Chain of Change
The bulky, dark vanity was a visual sore spot in this bathroom. The floor plan allowed for only a small sliver of space for the vanity. New cabinetry would have provided a fresh look but it wouldn't get rid of the bathroom's cramped feeling. Reconfiguring the floor plan to accommodate a larger unit would have significantly added to the cost.
After: A Glamorous Retreat
Chic grass-cloth wallpaper, the starting point for this makeover, lightened up the room significantly. The rest of the room followed suit. The solution to the vanity dilemma was to install an open unit, which keeps the room feeling spacious. Calcutta gold marble was the splurge in this $6,600 makeover; it keeps with the bathroom's sophisticated aura. The black-veined stone stretches across the floor and partially up the wall behind the vanity for a cohesive look.
