Guest Bathroom-updated

A co-worker, in the picture below,wanted to give a special bithday gift to her best friend of 20 years.  While the friend was vactioning Hawaii, she was left to watch the house. We put a plan into action and 2 days later, a new guest bathroom( I usually don't do these types of projects. Usually, I just paint.  what the heck, backbreaking tile, why not?) 2 days later, a new bathroom.

The pictures were done with a point and shoot, not so good.

This is what I did: I took out the toilet, sink and vanity, all lights and fixtures. Stip er down baby!

 I installed a pedistal sink, round tilting mirror , shelf with over the mirror lighting, tile floor, all new matching towel bars and new fixtures. Though the pictures are light, I choose a dark coffee paint for the walls with a creamy white for all trim. The contrast of the brown and white with the new lighting adds an atmosphere that is relaxing and inviting

This is  Nadine. As you can see, she can't wait to show her best friend what she has done with her bathroom while she was away.

The homeowner , after returning from vaction , was so excited she painted an inspirational room on the second floor that I was invited to see.

Don't we all wish we had friends like this!

Happy Birthday.
