My Daughter’s Bathroom Redo

A budget friendly child’s bathroom renovation for a young family home.

I recently shared our youngest daughter’s master bathroom remodel in her mid-90’s garden home. While the master was gutted, more budget friendly ideas were used for the child’s bathroom renovation.  That bath is located off the hallway to our grandson’s eclectic nursery and playroom so the cosmetic changes reflect their style and colors.

During house hunting, it was hard for our daughter to look past the navy and red vertical stripe wallpapered and the floral border in the existing guest bath. But Mr. Shops and I assured her it was an easy fix.  Round 1 consisted of adding crown molding and painting the walls Benjamin Moore Saybrook Sage for a neutral background.  Next, the brass vanity light fixtures were replaced with satin nickel lighting. And the brass cabinet knobs were switched out with hand-painted ceramic jewels from Anthropologie.

Round 2 began after the birth of her son.  A charming vintage coat rack was purchased to hold his multi-colored Turkish bath towels. That left the wall space open for fun artwork.  The shower curtain was made by adding button holes to a square John Robshaw printed tablecloth in a brilliant yellow hue.  The Clove pattern cloth features hand-stitched edging on all four sides for a beautiful decorative edge.  The glass knob shower curtain hooks were purchased a decade ago when our older daughter moved to San Francisco — I don’t think she will be getting them back without a fight. DD2 has created a fun room (and home) for her new family with her eclectic decorating style.
