The powder room will be one of the easiest fixes. It needs a coat of paint, knobs for the cabinet, and a new light fixture. Easy peasy. But check it out:
It's not a good photo, but can you see that wallpaper? It's freaking metallic. Also...
It is hung upside-down, you guys. Upside-freakin-down.
It's on there good, too. Instead of ripping it down, we'll probably prime over it and paint it. I'm thinking a dark color with bold, white accents. Maybe like Dragonfly by Benjamin Moore:
Now, the upstairs bathroom, well, that needs a whole lot of work. Unfortunately, It's going to be pricey, so we'll probably wait quite a while until tackling it.
First of all, the toilet, shower, and both sinks are all that gross "harvest gold" color that was all the rage in the 70's. And the sinks are chipped.
Instead of ripping out and replacing the whole shower and tub, we're considering getting a shower liner, something very simple and white. And buying a new toilet and sinks shouldn't cost too much, but it's the installation that gets pricey. I wonder if we could do it ourselves?
And, as you can see in the photo above, half of the bathroom (the half with the sinks, counter and mirror) have the same disgusting periwinkle carpet that disgraces our bedroom. Instead of ripping out the entire floor, I think we'll just clean the hell out of the tile to try to get it sparkling white, and then rip up the carpet and replace it with FLOR tiles.
We do have a giant mirror/medicine cabinet, though, which is nice.
So here are my eventual plans. Let me know what you think!
