So here it is- our icky bathroom (icky seems to be the "theme" word for this house, I really must get the thesaurus out) Like the title suggests, it is decorated in creepy motel chic. The walls were dirty white, there was old tile grout and tub grout pasted onto the tub it was due a makeover!
Blech.
"hmmmm I wonder why the previous owners left that mirror on the wall?"
ahhhhhh! that's why! wow. There are good surprises and bad surprises, I'll let you guess which one this was for me. It is a wall heater. Now, I am not an HVAC specialist, but doesn't heat rise? so, shouldn't a heater be--oh, I don't know, not at eye level? Unless you were prone to have a cold face or neck? I'll tell you one thing. When we sell it, the new owners will be thinking "hmmm, I wonder why the previous owners left this mirror here?"
(In case you were wondering....of course I turned it on! but it started to smoke as well as put out heat, so it was turned off really fast!)
So pretty. I love blue. It is my new favorite color. Now when the kids drive me nutso I might lock myself into the bathroom.....oh wait, but I can't do that because it no longer locks. One of the kids locked it and closed it somehow and there was NO little keyhole! what??!! so after numerous attempts at trying to be Macgyver we instead turned to Mr. T for our inspiration! Long story short- until we get a new door, there will be no bathroom privacy. Good thing my kids seldom even close the door when they use the "facilities"
Gotta love those curved shower rods!
So, there is now a picture above the toilet and one to the right of the sink and I just bought one of those pull out mirrors from IKEA , because how can you live without seeing the back of your hair?
That blue is so pretty!! Just a bit of paint and a new shower curtain and it's a whole new room :)
