Before and After Wednesday came from.
Today we have a wonderful bathroom makeover that has sent me to all of my guest bathrooms to see what I could do. This bathroom was presented to me by the ever lovely, Julie from Being Home. Here is a little teaser of the final look.
Being so much of a white gal, I was surprised when I was drawn to her freshly painted black vanity.
Now let’s see what she had to deal with.
Now, the after pictures. Julie changed just about everything in this bathroom.
This is a picture looking from the door. Look at the flooring, the vanity, the shelf above the toilet, and of course the new shower curtain.
New door, new hardware, new lighting fixture, paint for walls, vanity, door, and trim, new marble flooring, new marble countertop, and mirror framed out and painted! Oh, wait, and the cute decal above the door!
Julie’s bathroom went from boring builder’s grade to a luxurious little retreat. I’m in love with the marble!
To see the list of everything Julie used for this project, head on over to Being Home.
How fantastic was that? If you have any before and after projects that you would love to get featured, email them to thededicatedhouse@gmail.com and in the subject line, please put Before and After Wednesday. It can be any before and after: gardening, furniture redo, room makeover, complete renovation, sewing repurpose. Anything with a before and after.
I hope you enjoyed the first installment of Before and After Wednesday. Don’t forget, to pop back in tomorrow for the FeatherHen pillow cover Winner announcement. Also, mark your party calendars for the first Anything Blue Friday. Bring to the party any posts that have any shade of my favorite color blue. I can’t wait to see all the inspiration.
Thanks for popping in for a visit! Have a pretty day and remember to be kind to one another! Fear Not!
Toodles,

Kathy @ Creative Home Expressions says
Wow! What a great transformation! From a plain old bathroom to one with some pizzazz. Love the wall color and the vanity.
Michele @ The Nest at Finch Rest says
Oh Kathy – h er transformation DESERVES to be the first featured with your nifty neat new linky party!
I have lots of afters but always forget before and during pictures, so I am horrible at these parties but stalk them daily.
This will be a good one…perhaps the make it pretty posters will keep that one for mostly decor and crafts and the b and f folks will come here instead – nice thought to keep them separate if possible to make the parties more manageable!
Bonne chance!
Julie @ Being Home says
Kathryn, THANK YOU for featuring the bathroom makeover! It was definitely a labor of love. 😉
I am looking forward to seeing future Before and After Wednesday's and wish you MUCH success! Sure wish I had something blue to link up Friday. Oh, well. It will be fun checking out what other people link up. 😀
Thanks, again!
