My 80's bathroom is not something to write home about. There is not much that can be done with the humble space, accessories are about it . . . Last year I added a copper vessel sink on a concrete counter, re-stained the vanity and added some texture to the walls. I did these things right before entering a makeover contest that a fellow blogger was hosting. I did not win, nor did I really like the accessories that I got. So I recently went on the hunt for some new "eye candy" for the space.

A new picture I picked up at a local consignment shop.
Here is how it looked when I entered the contest. Not really my style, no wonder I did not win. I left all this stuff at the same consignment shop . . . do you think it will sell? lol
A close up of my counter, I really love it. I plan to do the master bath's too, but I am going to leave it unstained with a white sink. I have already told my honey that's what I want for Christmas, he so wishes, that I liked jewlery . . .
Here is the before , before . . . What was I thinking?

O I LOVE the bowl/sink :)
ReplyDeleteBathrooms are so difficult! I do love the sink, so work with it. We are in the process of painting our daughter's bathroom...they originally picked "bubblegum pink"...they wanted the Juicy Couture Pink and Chocolate...never happened. Dad hates the pink! Their cabinets are a beautiful chocolate color, so we are going with a pretty blue color on the walls. Love the combo...a bit more soothing. Hope to post pictures soon.
ReplyDeletedid you do the countertop yourself?? very cute.
ReplyDeleteI stumbled upon your blog tonight, and I must said I enjoy reading it. I love the accessories you picked for your home. Will continue follow your blog.
ReplyDeleteI remember when you did the concrete countertop because I've always been so impressed with it. Don't be so hard on yourself about the bathroom, sometimes what we think works does work at the time. Afterwards our tastes change and that's when we wonder "what was I thinking". It's even like that with hair and clothing. Just remember at the time you did like it. It's all good.
ReplyDeleteThanks Naz, I just hate it when I see something I once thought looked okay and hate it now. Anon, my son in law did the counters. This was his first he as since done more.
ReplyDeleteYour concrete counters are just fabulous and the bowl sink and faucet are wonderful. I really love your bathroom. Seems like our tastes are always changing. I do like your accessories you have now. Very pretty. Hugs, Marty
ReplyDeleteI love those concrete counters, especially with the vessel sink. Your new accessories are much better!
ReplyDeleteYou know how much I love that concrete countertop!!
ReplyDeleteWow, that countertop is beautiful!! Can you share a tutorial or share how you learned to do it?
ReplyDeleteI love the copper vessel sink, it's really beautiful, as well as the concrete counter. Really lovely!
ReplyDeleteThe second bathroom will look beautiful with a new sink and counter, but I must say, it's not so terrible now.
Hugs, Cindy S
LOVE the counter top!!!!!
ReplyDeleteLike your new accessories! Very zen like. And speaking of like . . . I'm not into jewelry either. My husband, I think, wishes I was....
ReplyDeleteI like the new bathroom, including the accessories.
ReplyDeleteGreat changes, Vicky! I like the bunny picture....Christine
ReplyDeleteTesting....as I lost my comment.
ReplyDeleteAh, much better as it now says "Ms Vicky". I like Naz (Hi Naz!) recall the concrete counter top that your ever so talented SIL did for you. In one word AWESOME! -Brenda-
ReplyDeleteP.S: What were you thinking? My guess, it was
the style back then. Now how is that
for a vote of confidence my friend. :)
Oh...I really love that concrete counter!
ReplyDeleteNo wonder you want more of them! The unstained ones with white sinks sound lovely! What a creative Christmas gift!
hugs~Cindy
The counter and vessel sink are stunning...and you chose those and they are what you notice.
ReplyDeleteI love your candor...bet someone will in fact buy those accessories!
I like how your bath is styled in the first picture! Well done.

Not certain about photos and blogger but .... are you trying to load them from the camera directly or from a 'my pictures' file on your hard drive. The new camera shouldn't make a difference especially if you were able to post photos before .........
