I worked hard to complete my entrance and powder room update, but there are not enough hours in a day and I really didn’t anticipate it being so much work. ha ha.
The powder room update is finished for the most part. The small details remain, but I will finish those with the entry details when I get an opportunity.
The baseboards and window frame were changed. I added a chair rail and although you can’t tell, there are two different colours between the top and the bottom.
Most everything was found at the GW or other thrift stores. If I had a bazillion dollars, or even a few, I’d change a few other things too, but I’m working with what I have. It’s a very small space so taking photos was not easy.
Before:
Now:
Are you wondering what the “P” stands for? It’s not for the obvious that happens in a washroom, it stands for Powder Room. :)
These are the junkin’ finds and what I paid for them:
Little lamp – $4.00
Lantern – $3.00
Hand towels – $1.00 each
Bombay plates – $1.00 each
Shelf – $2.00
White oval frame - $3.00
Pottery Barn clock – $4.00
Mirror – $6.00
Toilet roll holder – $1.50
Total: $30.50
This makes me very happy :)

I love the color, and your accents are great, I really liked the "P" idea. I have a bathroom with a similar footprint and it's murder trying to photograph it!

Wonderful job. I'm looking at this and saying, "this isn't a junkin room. everything looks new!" I would have never know if you didn't say it. Wonderful job.
ReplyDeleteLooks good. And I did giggle when I read that "P" was for powder room. It was so obvious!
