Repurposed Idea House Master Bathroom Makeover

Hi Friends!

Hope you’re having a great week so far! I know, I know, it’s only Tuesday, but still! :) We are giddy happy over here because we just finished the makeover of our master bathroom. This bathroom technically worked fine so we made it really low on our priority list even though I use it every day so I really, really wanted to redo it. It’s been about 4 years into the makeover of our Repurposed Idea House. Our goal was to have everything done in 5 years and I think we may finish up a little early actually. We only have two more rooms left. Yay!!!

Here’s our master bathroom the day we walked through the house for the closing:

Which do you love more?? The black carpet or mint green walls? So hard to decide, right?

We ripped the carpet out first thing 🤮 and pulled down some of the tile, but we had to leave the shower tile. Here’s the shower as well.

I mean… the struggle was real in this tiny space.

Ready for the afters?

Stunning, isn’t it?

I feel like I get to shower in a high end airbnb every day!

Let’s go over some of the details.

  • The top half of the walls are Valspar’s Lincoln Cottage Black.
  • The bottom half is shiplap painted Benjamin Moore’s Simply White and installed vertically instead of horizontally.
  • John built the new vanity because we didn’t see anything the right size and price; then he added this sink top to it.
  • Kept the original mirror.
  • Installed a new vanity light.
  • Spray painted the radiator gold.
  • Displayed beautiful tiny portraits from my friend Beth, who’s an amazing artist.
  • Installed new flooring that I LOVE! It looks just like concrete and it always looks good! It doesn’t show anything!
  • For the shower, installed a floor pan, wall tile, nook tile, half wall, shower faucet, and stool.
  • Installed wainscoting on the ceiling and stained it with 50% special walnut and 50% classic gray.
  • Installed Roman Shade
  • Installed a new door that we bought from the Historic Albany Foundation Warehouse and then put it on a slider.

Here are some close up shots for you!
