Guest Bathroom Makeover Reveal- Ray O'Summer Sunshine

Guest Bathroom Makeover Reveal

Welcome to the guest bathroom in our home. I call this the Shot O'Summer Sunshine Guest Bathroom Makeover! Here I'm posting what I've gotten done so far, which was really easily accomplished by shopping my local retail shops and shopping in my own home (things already here)....and it looks so inviting and bright! Even though this is our guest bathroom, it is one of the main bathrooms that gets the most use so I wanted it to look beautiful every time our family uses it.

I used many things that I already had and combined them with new items I picked up during a spring sale.

Supplies:

White Towels- already had from Bed Bath Beyond

Solid Yellow Towels- Walmart $2.95

Chevron Towels grey/yellow/white- Walmart $3.95ea

Chevron Rug- Walmart $8

Cream Ralph Lauren Accessories- Home Goods $5ea

Toilet White seat cover- Walmart $7

Glass Vase- TjMaxx $2

Sticks Floral Arrangement- TjMaxx

Yellow Floral Arrangement- Garden Ridge $2 a sprig got (5)

Wrap your towels, beautiful and functional. It looks great and keeps the towels together with every use....kids and all!

This picture shows the 'before' and 'after' effect for the sink vanity area. We added a hand towel rack on the wall. I added the vanity accessories which were cream and textured with braid detail. Then the finishing touch was the flower arrangement which gives the room some interest and it actually 'works' because the ceilings are so HIGH in the particular bathroom. It brings your eye up, up, and away...

 Clean and simple, yellow and grey. Cream vanity accents are closer you can see the detail....all gender neutral and just all around cheerful! The vanity toothbrush holder and liquid soap dispenser are very versatile and can be use with any design style in the future if change it up, it will fit in seamlessly. I took white ribbon and twine that I already had at the house and used it to secure the layers of plush towels. It is a nice but casual, shabby chic way to add some more accents.

Add a new plush Rug and some cozy Towels.
The muted purple rug that was there in the before picture, we already had that from our college years in a bathroom we didn't really use. The size of it was way to large for this space, the door would often get caught on it when opening and closing. This chevron Rug is fitting much more wonderfully now!

 I added the toilet seat cover, which I normally do not do (this is first one ever) yet my kids tend to drop the seat and it is very noisy sometimes. This remedies that problem wonderfully.
The rug also serves a dual purpose here, it is an anchor for the toilet, and a landing rug for getting in and out of the guest shower.

Here you can see more of the entire picture than on the top image, you can see the rug peaking up from the bottom corner.

 Added a tie to the towel stack over the toilet so that we didn't have a mishaps and have it fall in or just the kids taking off with them in general.

I hope you enjoyed this Ray of Sunshine redo.
Leave a comment if you have any questions or would like to share something with me about any re-do you've done on a bathroom.

What we hope to accomplish in this space in the next few months:

• DIY Curtain Window Treatment
• Organize Cabinet 

Enjoy!

Home Staging Tips: The DIY Approach

These are my Top 12 favorite home staging tips. This is a fast, inexpensive, and effective way to get your house to sell quickly. Go through your home and see which of the items on this list need to be addressed. Next, check out your competition so your property outshines theirs and makes a great memorable impression when buyers are touring. Make sure to fine tune as many issues as possible before listing your home or having your first open house, this will save time and money in the long run.

TOP 12 favorite Home Staging Tips:

1. BIGGER IS BETTER: Make each room appear as big as it possible can. Adding a beautiful mirror really helps visually enhance any space.


2. DE-CLUTTER: Clear the clutter. Use a light and bright paint color to freshen the space and let light in.


3. SHADES O'COLOR: In a smaller space, decorate with different shades of a similiar color. It give visual depth and creates an even flow.


4. KITCHEN COZYNESS: Updating your kitchen is a great idea. Do this by simply changing out the hardware or adding cabinet hardware, gorgeous accessories, new paint, and changing to new window treatments. Make sure the inside of your fridge is organized and clean too, buyers sometimes open it. Check out post on how I staged my fridge here, bringing beauty to something ordinary.


5. BATHROOM BEAUTY: Re-do your bathrooms easily and inexpensively by updating the mirrors, hardware, adding plush towels, nice accessories, and new paint. Check out how I updated our bathroom by framing our bathroom builder-grade mirrors.


6. FRESHEN FURNITURE: Revitalize your current furniture. This can be done by repainting, staining, changing hardware, or adding slipcovers.


7. ACCENT SPACE: Wallpaper is back...if done correctly. It can be used as a focal point on an accent wall or a recessed area of a space.


8. WELCOME HOME: Make an enterance to remember. Update your welcome mat, spruce up the house numbers, change out doorknob, and re-stain front door. This will create fantastic curb appeal.


9. INTERESTED?: Keep the interest in each room by having great design and unexpected elements.


10. GREENTHUMB: Combine living plants into the decor of your home. Fresh flowers and greenery add comfort and sweetness to any space.


11. TIS' THE SEASON: Seasonal accents are a good way to keep your decor fresh. Classic fall, spring, summer, and winter elements are appropriate.

Dome Porters Chairs

Versailles Domed Chairs

In the grand chateaux of 18th-century France, the porter, stationed by the entrance to admit visitors, would have sat in a chair much like this.

• Inspired by classic 18th-century Louis XV chairs
• Traditional Rococo carvings and ornamentation have been stripped away to showcase the chair's exquisite curved lines
• Dramatic dome and deep wings were designed to fend off drafts
