Master Bathroom Makeover

June 17, 2018

I’m SO excited to share with you guys the Master Bathroom Makeover we worked on this weekend. It’s actually been a project we have slooooowly been working since we moved in the house, but one we just finished on Saturday. Ever since we moved in, we’ve been going through each room and making it our own. I knew we’d get to the Master at some point (the Master bedroom still needs tons of work), but I’m happy to say that we at least have the Master Bathroom completed. I don’t have a picture of it from when we first moved in, but within the first year we at least painted the cabinets and add brushed nickel hardware. Since then we have done much more, and now I’m in LOVE with the Master Bathroom. Even the kids, who take baths in there, thought it looked so “pretty”. 😉 I agree!!

Here’s the BEFORE shot we captured a few weeks ago:

Nothing great. We had old lights and countertops we used to display all the “junk” we used. We instead bought baskets and made places for these items where they weren’t out all the time. They’re really what made the bathroom look messy. :/

Now – it is more organized which means it stays clean better… or at least it has for the past 4 days. 😉

We started the process by de-junking and then working on the floors. We placed wood-like tile in our kitchen and entry way 6 months after we moved in and decided to finally update all 3 bathrooms with the same tile. We have LOVED this tile because we love the maintenance of tile but the look of wood. We purchased ours at Lowe’s.

TILE INFO:

COMPANY – Florim
SERIES – Forest
COLOR – Rain

Here’s what it looked like before:

And here’s what it looks like with the tile, along with a Better Homes and Garden Chevron Bath Rug (Color: Seaglass Green).

After we worked on flooring, we decided to work on the Lighting. This is what they looked like before:

And this is what they looked like after:

HUGE DIFFERENCE!!

We bought Allen + Roth 3-Light Vanity Lights from Lowe’s found here.

We installed these lights using the same technique we did for our Guest Bathroom… (I’ll copy and past the tutorial here)

SUPPLIES:

– 3 light kits

– Spackle (we used Fast’N Final Lightweight Spackling – it’s super light, sands really fast and dries quickly)

– 4 inch patch kit

– Sanding Screen

– Wire cutters

– Cordless Drill

– Spackling knife

– Drywall Hand Sander

– Touch-up Paint & Paint brush

DIRECTIONS:

1. First, we removed the old light and applied the patch to the large hole. The style we used had an adhesive mesh with a thin metal plate. So you simply remove the backing and stick it the wall in the area of the hole.

2. We spackled over the patch and over all the divets. It’s better to add too much and sand it away later, than to not add enough and have to re-apply.

3. Sand the spackling smooth. We used 150 grit sanding screen and a drywall hand sander. We sanded until it was completely smooth and had no visible transitions to the painted wall. This was very dusty. We would recommend putting down plastic because dust went everywhere. We painted it when it was done.

4. Install the lights according to the instructions provided.
