Wow, we finished another master bathroom. What a transformation this one is.

The requests from the client were:

More storage space to hide the clutter, updated shower with niches and a bench, new floor tile, new countertops, new lighting, blue paint, updated bathtub and a vanity to do makeup.

BEFORE

As you can see it was in desperate need of a makeover. I suggested that we open up the closed "cave like" shower to make the bathroom feel more open. They didn't need the toilet to be separate because it was functional to them without the swing doors and they don't have anyone else that lives in the home with them.

AFTER

We took the bathroom down to the studs and started over!!!

You can see in the above photo that the shower is now opened up and now we get to admire the gorgeous tile work too. Nobody wants to shower in a cave. Why did they make showers like that before? Just look at it now! So much better don't you think? We also brought the tile up the walls and behind the toilet because that keeps things cleaner and fresher. We added the same glass accent tile as we have in the shower above it.

BEFORE

AFTER

We added new cabinets with quartz countertops.

The hardware is the jewelry!

We weren't able to center the sink under the mirror due to opening up the shower, storage needs as well as needing the vanity but the client had no problem with that. Priorities, priorities.

The client really wanted a vanity so she could sit and do her makeup. I was so proud of her, she spray painted her existing vanity stool and did a weekend upholstery job. I gave her a thumbs up because you know I love to repurpose if I think it works and helps us stay on budget.

Singing the Hallelujah chorus!

We had space next to the tub so we decided to add the 4 drawers for extra storage space. It would have been wasted space otherwise. Can you believe how gorgeous the accent tile is? The Arabesque pattern is just amazing made out of pearl. I suggested we put it around the windows to balance the bathtub side with the tower cabinets on the other side of the room. It is stunning and was quite a challenge to install!

Can we also take a moment of silence and stare at the chandelier! It's on a dimmer for soaking moments.

Every "spa like" bathroom needs a tower of rocks.

and a colorful rug! Rugs bring everything together. I like to use rugs that aren't the typical rugs you would use in a bathroom. It just makes the room more spectacular and bumps it up to the next level.

The client had the large blue pottery made by a local artist and I found the baby pottery to go with it. Perfect for fresh flowers when you are feeling like treating yourself.

BEFORE

Oh my! Can you believe this?

AFTER

We opened up the entire bathroom by taking out the wall to wall cabinets. Instead we did tower cabinets and put pull out drawers in each one so things could be hidden away. We took out the fur downs and that opened things up a ton too. Made the entire bathroom feel taller and more spacious.

As you can see, this bathroom coordinates beautifully with the bedroom we transformed for them.

We are busy working on some design plans and I also have some very exciting news to share with you!

Stay close! Happy Sunday!

HALL BATHROOM BEFORE

HALL BATHROOM AFTER

Way more fun and perfect colors and pattern for teen girls. Added new larger tile and brought it all the way up to the ceiling. Painted the cabinets chocolate brown and added new cabinet hardware. The double curved curtain rod gives them more space when showering and the decorative curtain adds height to the room. There is another curtain behind this one that is used for functionality.

This color combination is one of the teens favorites.

BEFORE MASTER RETREAT

"Using the furniture the client had" to keep within their budget and adding new accessories, lamps, a rug and bedding made this room look like a retreat. It's not always necessary to start from scratch!! Unless of course, your budget can handle that.

AFTER MASTER RETREAT

What a difference!

I added mirrored glass to the top of the end table to dress them up a little (they are actually place mats-shhh). These lamps are like artwork in the room.

AFTER

Didn't the wallpaper on the headboard wall turn out beautiful? Thank you Lester!!! I think it added such subtle elegance. The beautiful painting was done by Mary Howe, a local artist in the area. She created it just to go in this room with my color scheme.

See how the wallpaper and the sheets coordinate. The rug is perfect with the draperies and adds a warm layer to the room.

BEFORE

AFTER

My client inherited the furniture from their family so it's special to them.

You can see the drapery panels in this picture. Same fabric as the throw pillow on bed.

Love the etched flowers on the round mirrors, adds a vintage touch.

I added the cording around the European shams to coordinate with the bedspread color. It married them well. The lamps came with different lampshades, I found these and thought they added much more style vs. the plain ones they had before.

As you will remember from previous posts, this was my INSPIRATION for the overall feel and color palette for the room.
