Half Bath Makeover

  Hello steemit community, today I wanted to share with you my bathroom makeover. 

Here is the half-bath originally before I updated it.  As you can see in the picture below, it needed some sprucing up . The bathroom was not my style, and I wanted to change the look of it. I wanted to give it a more inviting look.   

The first thing I did was paint the room, giving it a fresh new look.  I used a linen color for the room.  Next, I took off the doors of the cabinet, and started sanding down the cabinet and the doors. After I was done sanding down everything, I taped off where I was going to paint.  Then I had to choose a color for the cabinet. I could not decide whether to paint it a gray color or white.  In the picture below, I painted the top part of the cabinet gray.  I did not like how the gray looked, so I chose to go with a bright white.  

When the cabinet was painted, I put the new knobs and hinges on the cabinet.  I did debate about whether to put a new countertop on the cabinet, but I chose to keep it because I kind of liked it.  The tile and the sink was in good shape.  I am also on a budget, so for now I am going to keep it as it is.  In the future, I think I would like to do a butcher block wood countertop with a drop down sink for the countertop.  

I purchased the mirror at TJmaxx for 24.99.  I bought a new towel holder for the bathroom.  Then I put up floating shelves above the toilet.  I did a DIY post on how to make the floating shelves, if you are interested in making some.  

The half-bath has a whole new look.  Now the bathroom looks much brighter, and has a warm and inviting touch to it.  This is my journey of renovating a foreclosure we purchased about a year ago.   I hope you enjoyed my post.
