Master Bathroom Reveal!

Guess what? It’s time for the Master Bathroom Reveal!

I know, I know, we did the master bathroom in April & May, so why am I just now showing you the finished product?  Well, I have many excuses (football season, traveling, renovation exhaustion, holidays, etc), but the real reason boils down to flowers. Yes, flowers. Don’t ask.

So file this in the better late than never category, because here is the Master Bathroom Reveal! It’s not totally done, as there are a few little things here and there that I want to do, like install crown molding, switch out the light fixture in the water closet, and add some functional organizational tools to the cabinets, but it is done for now.

I’ve been enjoying it since it was finished, and I can’t believe its taken me this long to do the reveal post.  I apologize.

In case you’ve forgotten, you can get caught up to speed by reading the before post, the bathroom choices and the remodel update.

The Master Bathroom Before

Here is what the bathroom looked like before:

The Master Bathroom After

Here is what it looks like now:

We really need to do something about that Water Closet light. The lighting in there is horrendous, so I may add that to this weekend’s to-do list. It was really hard to get a good pic of the shelves together. Sorry about that! That closet is tiny!

We replaced the old shower light with one of these new LED all in one recessed lights that are safe for use in wet areas.  This is also the type of light I want to put in the Water Closet.

It’s so light and airy, I just love it.  It is the best room in the house, and I can’t wait for the rest of the house to catch up to the Master Bathroom.

I have so many favorite parts! I love the bubble bath pictures of my babies, taken when they were 2 years old. So simple and easy for bathroom art. I love that all of the fixtures have a square aspect to them, except for the chandelier. I love the bath tub. That thing is awesome & so deep!  It’s wonderful to soak in. I love the marble all the way to the window. It makes a great place to store bath goodies. I love the seat & the cubbies in the shower. The flat toilet tank lid so things don’t slide off the top is amazing! I just love all of the details.

The Decor

Decorating the finished room is my favorite part of the master bathroom reveal. It’s still a work in progress, but pretty much done.  The x-bench is from Target and I repainted the legs & recovered the top with fabric from fabric.com.  I also made the roman shade out of the same fabric. The trays, jars, stool, floor mats, toilet tank basket, bath accessories, and cake stand were all found at HomeGoods.  

The vanity mirror, the BEST makeup mirror ever, is from Amazon.  The baskets in the water closet hold some of my personal care stockpile, and they are from West Elm, as is the glass vase on the windowsill.  The frames with the kid’s bubble bath pictures are RIBBA frames from IKEA.  The chandelier was from Z Gallerie.  I’m still looking for a few items, like pictures for the Water Closet and a tissue holder.  Cabinetry Hardware are Emtek’s Geometric 3″ handle (discontinued) and 1.25″ knob from Build.com.  

Check out this post for paint colors, fixtures, and other construction choices that went into this master bathroom reveal.

I reused some 2″ wood plantation blinds for the large window.  It is the same width as one in the living room, where I had removed the blinds when we moved in.

I’m pretty happy with the choices that we made. If I had extra cash, I would have replace the cabinets, but that wasn’t in the budget at the time.

The Oval Window

In addition to the little things above that I want to do in this room, I also want to remove that pesky oval window, have it drywalled, and instead install 3 1′ x 2′ windows across the top of that wall to let in a ton of light while maintaining privacy.  I ended up putting some cling frost on that window for privacy, but it makes it really hard to get to the towel rack.  Once that window is gone, we can move the towel rack to a more convenient spot for everyone.

The Budget

We ended up going slightly over budget on this project, but that is mostly because the room is so big. We ended up spending around $20,000. I think it was worth it, though. We saved a ton of money by doing the demo, painting, and painting the cabinets ourselves. It took about 5 weeks start to finish, which I think is a long time for a bathroom, but we had some hiccups along the way, like termites, scheduling conflicts, tiles the wrong color, and more.

But its done now, and we can enjoy it!

• New Shower with Bench & Storage
