Master bathroom!

So, this was our master bathroom. I don't have a picture of the bathroom before we took most of the wallpaper down, but it was BAD. Imagine *every* single painted surface of this bathroom covered in yellowing wallpaper that had tiny blue, pink and green flowers on it - it was so 70's-tastic, and not in the good way (you can see scraps of wallpaper in some of the photos below). We had a huge old-person toilet (tall and long), old people handle bars on the walls, and no decent towel hangers. In addition, the shower curtain was boring, the puffy valance on top of the window was light pink and the walls were in pretty bad shape once we took the wallpaper off.































After! We got all the wallpaper off and had the walls repainted white, got a new valance, new hardware, a new shower curtain, and a water-saver toilet (thank you City of Madison for the $100 rebate!). *All* this was less than $200 in parts, the labor (we had someone take off the rest of the wallpaper and paint the walls for us) was about $400. I decided to do a white, chocolate brown and light blue color scheme:
























I now absolutely *adore* this bathroom! :)
