Welcome to Our Pot-tay

We've been doing some 'mini face lifts' around the house where needed. One of those spots was the downstairs guest bathroom. While the bathroom itself was fine, it just wasn't exactly our taste. We tend to gravitate towards the more modern look of darker wood, grays & khakis, etc. While there was nothing falling apart or in bad shape in this bathroom the 1980's laminate oak doors just aren't our thang. So in true Berlin Wall fashion we chose a fresh coat of paint on the walls, new paint and hardware on the vanity and a few new accessories. (Actually the accessories were not new, just recycled from another area of the house) So without further ado...

BEFORE:

















Please excuse the blue painters tape. I always forget to take a true before picture. By this point I had already removed the existing towel bar and started taping.

AFTER:

















And yes, if you are one of those people who pays attention to detail I am wearing the same pajamas in both the before and after pic. What can I say, they are really comfy!
