Bathroom Makeover

So the only part of my house when we bought it that I thought was completely hideous was the downstairs bathroom. (it was the only room they didn't have a picture of in the listing, so they must have thought it was ugly too!) So this past summer we re-did it. Nothing fancy, I had a very limited budget to work with, just a bit of a face-lift! But I think it looks SO much better. It took me a while to post the photos because I was waiting to paint something for above the toilet. But I had no clue what to paint, so I whipped the picture of a flower up in about 15 minutes just so I could hang something up! :) I don't have a complete before photo, I was just too excited to start ripping the wall paper off! :) Here are the photos!

BEFORE
 Gotta love the bamboo shelf over the toilet
 The tribal dancers in the wallpaper is better though!
 The fixtures were a little tribal as well
 The wallpaper all down! Halleluiah!
 There was this big hole in the drywall behind the toilet so we had to do our best to patch it
The Vanity. Notice the ugly orangey tile.

AFTER
 I painted the vanity and added new hardware

I put down new floor. I'm so happy I put it in the "diamond" pattern. Jeb thought it would be easier just to put it straight across, but I think this really made it look just that little bit better.

 My very quick painting
 New Fixtures!
