Master bath makeover.... so far


The top photo is the before, before we bought the house; the second is the after.

I am planning to stain the rest of the woodwork in the Mahogany, frame out the vanity mirror with the demo'ed chair rail molding from the hall project, and add crown molding. And, of course, hang some art on the walls (not sure what in my stash I"ll use, yet). I replaced the old-fashioned cut glass knob pulls with satin nickel ones; did a venetian plaster treatment on the walls in a warm Tuscan yellow; refinished the worn and dated 80's vanity in an exotic Mahogany; hung new satin nickel towel rods, and finished by adding a toilet paper holder where it should have been all along (within easy reach), instead of having to reach around behind. We also replaced the cheap brass vanity bar with a beautiful satin nickel/frosted glass fixture (only $19.99! My bargaining prowess never rests!). Take a look:



There is more to be done, but there it is, thus far!
