A Bathroom Makeover Alongside Teal Wall Paint

Amanda’s bathroom makeover is a large reminder that paint can not only transform the walls of a boring old bathroom, it can also spiff up a seen-better-days wood vanity. And decorative drawer liners can be the icing on the cake. Here is her letter:

I simply hoped to share the before and after we simply completed in Brian’s bathroom. You folks have been quite inspirational and have become quite the household name- “Brian, you should see over on YHL, they have such and such in their house and it looks excellent!” or “You should see what they simply did over at YHL- we could do that!!” So, thank YOU for opening your home to us and the many, many others to share your thoughts, ideas, and successful projects. I know that I specifically thought about what I enjoyed so much about your house when we began on this project. The cool colors, natural elements that you bring in with decor, and all of the bright white! I also enjoy how you heightened your bathroom with the shower curtain being raised to 95″, so I am sure we will be tackling that project sometime in the near future. Thanks for helping to empower and inspire us to truly tackle something that was not so strong and turn it into something that we think is simply excellent. We enjoy that we did it on a budget and in simply a short period of time, likely less than 20 total hours I would estimate. Thanks again- keep on posting because I will certainly keep on reading! -Amanda

And here is the chic and classic after thanks to a little Amanda and Brian elbow grease:

Is not this a strong reminder that paint is the number one way to cheaply tranfrorm nearly anything? Simply do not paint the dog! And is not that fresh chocolate vanity even lovelier with those vivid patterned shelf liners? Yummy. What do you folks think of Amanda’s stunning bathroom update? Oh and be sure to drop in on her journal for more photos and info. Thanks so much for sending your excellent makeover our way Amanda!
