A New Look for the Bathroom

Decorating is not my strong suit. It never has been and it probably never will really be. I do an adequate job, but professional decorator I am not.

But I have been ready for a change to our bathroom for quite a while. So, a couple of weeks ago I went browsing through my favorite online country decorating store, PiperClassics and found just what I was looking for.

Before:

before cutrain and sink

I’ve had this shower cutrain since the girls were babies. It was in our guest bathroom by their nursery. Now we don’t have a guest bathroom at all.

trash can diaper pail

And this was my lovely bathroom trash can…yes, a diaper pail. YUCK!

After:

after cutain and sink

New Heritage Star Shower Curtain….it looks just perfect. I love that it goes along with the decor in the rest of the house.

Berry vines were placed above the mirror.

after towel ring and berry wreath

I hung a new barn star hand towel ring. I didn’t have a ring for the hand towel before! And brought in a berry wreath from the kitchen. Oh, I also got a new coordinating hand towel.

after barn star

I brought in a large barn star from the living room. Redecorating doesn’t have to cost a fortune when you can scrounge up item from other places in your home!

And ta-da…..

after trash can

….the bathroom now has a cute, matching waste basket!!

I love my new bathroom!!!

It’s adorable and really does look like a continuation of the rest of your house! Great job!

P.S. The old shower curtain is sooooo cute though. I just want to wrap a cute little baby girl in that!

Decorating in base housing is certainly a challenge-fantastic job!

Geez, why didn’t you just check out the bathroom accessories at your local Aafes? ;o) Hehe.

Too bad that moms don’t get to spend much time enjoying their bathrooms! We decorate them for others, eh?

NICE!!! I like the before, too, but the after is so complete and sophisticated. I love it. Well done! And, yes, the trash can upgrade is fantastic. ;)

Great tackle Monica! It looks adorable! I have a bathroom tackle I need to do myself, perhaps looking at your beautiful place will motivate me to brighten ours up!
