Pull up a seat!

As I said in my last post, I am so pleased with how the bathroom turned out. Huge transformation. It makes me wish we hadn't waited so long to start work on it!

The vessel sink, faucet and tiles all came from Home Depot. The total cost ended up being more than I anticipated, with a majority of it being the sink and faucet. I've been wanting a sink like this for ages, so I'm not complaining!


My inspiration for the black vanity came from Layla at The Lettered Cottage. LOVE her. We primed the vanity with Kilz before putting on two coats of black paint. Once it was dry, I took my handsander to the edges. Just a bit of white paint and the original wood now show through.


While we splurged on the vanity, we saved on the decor. This frame is from the Goodwill. I got it for $1 and spray painted it black.


 The starfish is from Hawaii, where Jeff and I got married. Look familiar? We used it for this photo of our wedding rings.



 The framed photos are from a trip we took to Destin.

 

My shabby oar finally found the perfect home! I picked it up from The White Rabbit a couple of years ago for $35. The vase was previously in the kitchen, but fits perfectly here now!
 

I think my favorite part is the color. It is Tropical Lagoon from Glidden. It is like a Tiffany/Robin's Egg blue. Simply perfect!
