is figuring out how she wants to spend her birthday money
There’s not much I can really do to my bathroom (it’s super tiny & I’m pretty sure management won’t allow me to paint), but I want to add some stuff to make it more personal. Besides, the rug we have now is terribly disgusting, a breeding ground for stink.
The colors I have in mind are black, turquoise, and possibly silver/chrome. I’ve already found a matching rug & shower curtain in turquoise at Ikea for really cheap. They even have nice turquoise & black towels. I also want to get a wall shelf or cabinet to hang over the toilet because our bathroom is so messy & unorganized. It’d be nice to have a place to put our towels besides the shower curtain rod since the towel hanger broke. I’ve been looking a few different options from different stores.
A simple, cheap chrome shelf with a towel rod:

Or something a little more expensive (but more aesthetically pleasing & probably more durable):

Or something in between:

I’m really excited to get started. I even can’t wait to put the shelf together myself. I’ll probably be going shopping this weekend to check out my leads, and at least to get the textiles from Ikea since they aren’t available online.

I am going to paint it with this rocking silver paint and I have already purchased some mermaid art to hang and a bunch of cool seashell decor. It’ll be awesome. Silver grey and plum with a touch of blue

Just finished it yesterday. It took much longer on my own, yet really satisfying
The yellow is a really warm yellow but you can’t see it too well in the picture
Well I’ve done both now… mission accomplished

I’ve not decorated for a long time, My Dad was here with me on holiday and helped me buy all the right stuff
I love mini rollers they are so cool and they zoom through painting better than a brush
I’m quite proud of myself as I did most of the work myself , my Dad helped with the tricky bits
My hair smells of white spirit… oh well (I’m a bit messy lol)
I’ll add some nice pictures and a lamp later…
I might even make a pretty little curtain for the window
Oh what I have started
Bathroom 2 is next on the hit list.. hehehe

Bathroom looks great – pictures, wreath, new towels, bathmats, shower curtain. Feel good about it.

I will create a beautiful space for myself to appreciate my life while I soak in a hot bubbly tub. I will feel so renewed and refereshed every time I enter this special room.

Today I went to Target and I bought a new shower curtain, its a blue/green color with little knitted flowers on it, some new white towels, 2 new rugs and a new trash can. It looks so much better in there now. I still want to paint the walls one day, but for now Im happy!

I hate hate hate my bathroom. Its just a jumble of colors that dont go to together, its horrible!! The walls are a bright light blue, as is the toilet seat, the shower curtain is this ugly dark blue, the trash can is forest green which I hate and the rugs are maroon, which I also hate. The towels are all random colors and it just looks like shit in there. So Im hoping to get a new curtain, trash can and rugs by the end of the month, maybe some new towels, and then someday paint it a more appealing color.

I finally found the motivation to get on with this project after Lucy called me the other day to ask for her painting materials back that she had lent me because I must certainly be done the bathroom by now. I was so embarrassed that I got started that day.
I just have to get the wall behind the vanity painted, and put one more coat of paint on the walls, touch up around the edges and corners, and install the new light fixture and the towel bars and I’m DONE!
