Half Bath Refresh

April 30, 2018 in DIY

Our half bath needed a little updating. We wanted to freshen it up without spending a ton of money.

Before and after photo

Updates made:

  1. Built new doors for vanity cabinet
  2. Painted Vanity and added new hardware
  3. New faucet
  4. New mirror
  5. New light fixture
  6. Painted the walls
  7. New art work
  8. Towel ring
  9. New rug

Vanity Cabinet

Our first goal was to give the vanity a face lift, we wanted to updated from a boring old builders grade vanity. We decided on shaker style cabinet doors, and my husband, Kevin, built the cabinet doors.

We then painted the cabinet. To be honest, this was a task. This is one of my first experiences painting a cabinet and it was important for me to use a low/ no VOC paint. (Soon I’ll write a blog post on the importance of Low/ No VOC paints and indoor air quality.)

Primer: Kilz Premium Primer Low Odor- Zero VOC

Cabinet Paint: Valspar Signature Zero VOC- Semi-gloss

 

It’s really amazing what a fresh coat of paint can do…. before the bathroom felt dingy and dated now it’s bright, fresh and clean!

1. Light fixture /  2. Delta Faucet /  3. Mirror /  4. Delta towel ring /  5. Hand towel /  6. Frames /  7. Art Work                  8. Cabinet Color (SW Salty Dog) / 9. Wall Color (SW Agreeable Gray)
