FRESH NEW BATHROOM LOOK...

We decided it was time to do something to one of the places in our house that has been forgotten...the Master Bathroom.  It's easy to not care about it, since no one ever sees it except us.  But we started thinking about it and decided the floral wallpaper had done it's duty.  The brass needed to go and the wooden cabinets needed paint.  We had wallpapered when we moved in 15 years ago, and my BIL redid the tile.  The tile still looks good. So this was really all just cosmetic. That doesn't mean it was easy, though!  We started in February and worked little bits here and there when we had the time.

Some of the fun stuff...

This is one of my favorite improvements - hidden hinges!  It wasn't easy but he did it for me!

In process - we really liked the grey tones and decided to leave the crown molding as-is because it wasn't water damaged and I like the contrast.

Our lovely brass...before

New brushed nickel

New towel warmer

New toilet paper holder - and yes, we kept the phone in there...it was there when we moved in and we thought it was funny, but occasionally the Hubs has to check the weather when he gets up in the morning...AHEM.

New switch plates and electrical covers

Finally, some fresh rugs!  

We are about 90% done  - still trying to figure out what to do with the brass in the shower and on that door.  But it feels nice to have something up-to-date in there!  Of course the color scheme is catching so I ended up getting a new comforter for the bed this summer, too!
