Guest Bathroom...Before and After!

I don't know about you, but I could use a little makeover news in my life right now. Truth be told, I could use a root touchup.

ANYONE???????

I told Ryan by the time this quarantine is over, I'm going to be a human skunk - hopefully in appearance only. And I rest in knowing I'm not alone.

I may not be able to get to the salon, but we got to the paint can and toolbox and finished decorating the guest bathroom, so I can FINALLY show you before and after pictures! (Is decorating ever REALLY done? I don't think so. But this is done enough for pictures.) You can click on photos to enlarge.

So without further ado...

The view from the hall. :) We got rid of the bathmat. We'll put a towel down when guests come and need to shower. We got rid of the builder grade towel bar and purchased a four holder rack from Amazon. (Each holder hinges onto the one above it, so you could use fewer spots or hang them separately, even, if you wanted.)

I got the three picture frames on the shiplap wall at Hobby Lobby and filled them with pictures from our travels. One has a water splash from Aruba, one has the Indiana Dunes, and one has a sunset over Lake Michigan.

I had originally planned to keep the shower curtain, what with the rustic nautical theme and all, but then when our navy color on the wall wasn't a true navy, we switched it out for a plain white curtain from Amazon. (We also got a new toilet paper holder from Amazon. Has a little more character than the builder grade one.)

Got ride of the hand towel bar too and found two smaller towel holders that are actually boat rope hooks. (They probably have a better name than that, but I don't know what it is.) I did get the two hand towels and four bath towels new also - at Bed, Bath, and Beyond, all on a sweet sale.The picture up on the wall in this last photo was from our first cruise, and it's in a porthole picture frame. It's been hanging in our master bath and I rehomed it here.

Eventually I want to hang something on this wall space behind the door, but I haven't come up with the perfect thing yet. Remember what I said at the beginning? Is decorating ever really done?

We took down that cabinet above the toilet and didn't reuse it. I repainted the letters for North/South/East/West so they would stand out against a white wall. And of course, our beautiful new double sink and mirrors vs. the single sink.

So there you have it! The before and after makeover of the guest bath! Can we be guests in our own home now?
