Country Chic Cottage - Bathroom Reveal

Speaking of bathrooms yesterday (I know, it was a living room feature but did you see the CSN Green + Clean Bathroom bailout announcement? Get entered!), Here is a beautiful transformation to inspire you from Angie at
The Country Chic Cottage



Today is the day -- the day of the big reveal. The green/white bathroom with touches of red. Perfect for Saint Patricks Day! I really feel like I need a drum roll....
I ended up not having a before pic of this wall. It was plain white before if you can believe it. Those frames all came from the thrift store and were repainted. The other items on the shelf were all thrift store finds and the shelf was $15 at the Restore. If you follow my blog, you will recognize most all of those thrifting goodies!
Now for the before and afters -- my bathroom is rather large as you will probably figure out...
Shower Area

BEFORE

AFTER
Recognize that Framed Burlap Letter? The shower curtain is yet another thrift store find.
My Vintage Cabinet

BEFORE
This cabinet was my bathroom inspiration. Scroll back a few pics -- recognize the pattern I painted on the walls?

Yes...I have not found an appropriate replacement for that blue laundry hamper...I am stumped on what to get... The framed pictures I highlighted earlier this week.
Commode Area

BEFORE
Doesn't commode sound so much more refined? Okay maybe not....

AFTER
And poor hubby had the flu so we are going to have to stare at those brass light fixtures a little longer... You can just see the side of that shelf in the first pic -- just so y'all can orient yourselves...
Sink Area

BEFORE


AFTER
Again y'all bare with me on those light fixtures...ugh... That leaf design painted by the door turned out to be my favorite one...so pretty!

Tub Area

BEFORE

AFTER
Yep I kept those curtains -- I love em -- that is all that matters. The color inspiration came from a curtain swatch. I have a plan for that bare spot on that wall but the spray paint job is not quite finished...I will just keep y'all in suspense.
That wall paper border removal ALONE was enough to make the space better...but whew it was a nightmare... So what do y'all think?

What do I think? Angie! It's gorgeous! Way to get rid of the outdated border and create a beautiful, soothing space. I love the new green color and leafy accents and I love the framed burlap "H". I can't believe you got a great shower curtain at the thrift store! AND your vintage cabinet is awesome! Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful transformation!
