Our Guest Bathroom Renovation Reveal

Finally, the week we’ve all been waiting for is here!

Today, I’m excited to reveal our guest bathroom renovation with the new beautiful palm print wall paper!

 
 
 

Guest Bathroom Renovation Reveal

 

The end of the One Room Challenge is always a lot of fun.

I’m excited to show off our freshly zhushed guest bathroom renovation.

You might remember from Week One, that we had a plain, builder grade bathroom that lacked personality.

 

Renovation Design Inspiration for our Guest Bathroom

While it looks nothing like the original inspiration photo, having something/anything to inspire you in the beginning of a project can be a great jumping off point.

In this instance, it inspired me to go with some brass elements and some patterned wallpaper.

I’ve listed all the sources at the bottom of this post.

Unfortunately, the shower curtain and brass toilet paper holder I’d ordered arrived after the photos were taken late last week, at this point I’m not even sure the room needs them…

PS: Don’t miss the before and after of laundry room one room challenge here!

Guest Bathroom Renovation Breakdown

I decided to work with the existing tiles (even though I didn’t really dig them) rather than paint or remove them, due to time and budget constraints.

However, I did replace the old counter top, faucet, hardware, mirror and light fixture, but I think the real hero of this room is the Cole & Son Palm wallpaper!

This all came together beautifully, SO happy I love how it all looks.

Tackling a much smaller space in six weeks was a whole lot less stressful than last year’s kitchen renovation.

  42. Really lovely! It came out great Sue. Love all the brass. I've just ordered a new brass faucet for our downstairs powder room, very similar to this one. You didn't say where you got the brass towel bar? Could you let me now the source? Would love to see if it might work in our BR too.

    Thanks!
