Bathroom Redo; Party Highlight


Paige from The Price Family linked this up to the last party, it looked so nice and clean, I had to share it! 

Recently, I gave my guest bath a little makeover. 

I am trying to do away with patterns and multiple colors in my house...going for a more simple, clean, fresh look.

So, I decided it was time I got my hands on my guest bath....

Here it was before....

...and here is the after...

(The shower curtain was $12 at Target. I cut off the bottom, sewed on some burlap and a chocolate colored ribbon to match)

I put up the chair rail and shadow boxes myself. The shadow boxes are pre-made and were purchased at Lowe's. This was VERY easy to do!!!

A plain $3 towel from Wal Mart.... I monogrammed it and sewed on chocolate ribbon on the bottom.
The color is Eddie Bauer's "Limestone" purchased at Lowe's.

I am learning that LESS is better when it comes to home decor....even in a bathroom....

What do you think??

    And I think less is almost always more. It's easier to keep clean and tiny and in my case keeps things calm.

  8. Love the guest bath redo. My favorite touches are the towels that are enhanced with ribbon and the dark iron touches you have on the walls. I have to admit that I liked the before bathroom too. I love the new look - sophisticated without being stuffy and very comfortable and stylish!

  10. I just repainted my bathroom as well. I definitely agree that less pattern is better! The shower curtain I found is very similar to yours. I love what you did with the towels and the ribbons - I might have to use that in finishing my makeover!

    Take Care

  11. OH MY MERCY - I am totally copying this bathroom. Exactly copying it. Except my initial is "G" not P :) I love it! I like that your shower curtain is hung so that the window shows through. I don't have a window, but I like the idea :)
