This is our bathroom now after the second renovation...
This is what our bathroom looked like when we bought the house...
And if you remember, this is what our bathroom looked like after the
first renovation...
Before you call me crazy, I want you to read on and find out why I renovated again.
Don't get me wrong, I loved the original renovation. My problems?
{water stains - cringe}
There is nothing wrong with the wallpaper itself. In fact, I would highly recommend it especially for renters. It really is an "
easychange". It peels right off without leaving any marks.
My regret is not foreseeing the lack of a back splash for my vanity. The water marks just drove me crazy. Plus, I would probably leave the wallpaper installation to a professional next time.
I wanted to replace the wallpaper with another graphic pattern without dealing with water marks so I used the Zamira Allover stencil from
Cutting Edge Stencils.

(This is after sweeping, mopping and scrubbing!
My mistake? Using an off white grout and getting an unglazed tile.)
I was ready to replace the tiles when I saw
this product at home depot
It is the traffic master allure resilient vinyl flooring.
The best part is the easy installation.
It goes on top of your existing flooring.
and it is so easy to clean!
I also replaced the gold mirror with the faux bamboo mirror from the
living room. (I'll post more on the living room later, It looks different now!)
Not bad for pretty inexpensive fixes, right?
