Bathroom Renovation

We finally finished our main bathroom renovation! Austin made my bathroom Pinterest board a reality and I couldn't be more obsessed. It turned out perfect. Unfortunately I was too busy with school to be much help with this project - all I really did was help make decisions and work on the decor details, Austin did all of the hard work. We're so glad to have this bathroom done. The only thing that still needs to be done is were going to have the bathtub sprayed and resealed white, but that probably won't happen for a few more months and I couldn't wait that long to share!

This first photo is the photo from the listing when we bought the house - the very starting point of this bathroom.


If you've seen any pictures of our home, you know we tend to stick with gray, white, black and wood colors... so we didn't stray too far from that in the bathroom either besides from throwing in a pop of navy.



Finding all black hardware can be really tough. All of our towel hooks and toilet paper holder are from Amazon. Our shower head and tub faucet are both Delta but the sink faucet is Pfister. The only thing we didn't get black in the shower curtain rod and that is simply because we already have this one and just didn't feel like buying a new one yet.


We decided to add in an in-the-wall shelf with the same granite as our counter top in the shower and I love how it turned out - I can't wait to put one in our master bath shower!




We found our light fixture at Lowe's and it is actually oil rubbed bronze and not black but it looks black enough and it was super super hard to find a black light fixture that we liked and fit but this one was perfect.



The jars and the "scrub a dub dub" sign are both from Hobby Lobby and the picture frame is from Home Goods and the print I bought from an Etsy shop, OrchardBerry. I think my shelves turned out so cute against the DIY shiplap wall.


Austin made the "shiplap" wall out of plywood, which he just nailed up then painted white. He actually used nickels to make sure the spacing stayed equal. He made it seem like a pretty easy process (like he does with everything) and I think it definitely pulled this whole bathroom together.


Picking out tile for this bathroom was super difficult for me. I was really worried about it clashing with the counter tops and I worried about the bathroom being too busy but at the end of the day I am very happy with our choice! I tend to leave final decisions up to Austin - because of his job he sees so many kitchens and bathrooms, he knows what will looks fine and what won't.
