Chris’s Bathroom

Before and after

The guest bathroom before, with a dark cherry vanity, granite top, glass vessel sink and an ornate oval mirrorThe finished guest bathroom with a light oak vanity, white counter, arched mirror and brass sconces
Drag to see it change

What I built

  • Pulled out the cherry vanity, the granite top and the glass vessel sink
  • Stripped the patterned wallpaper off the toilet alcove
  • Patched the walls back and sprayed fresh texture over them
  • Painted the whole room out in white
  • Fitted a light oak vanity with a white counter and an undermount sink
  • Hung an arched mirror with a brass sconce either side
  • Kept the original terracotta floor, cleaned and resealed rather than replaced
