This homeowner knew her guest bath had good bones, but after living in the house for almost 10 years, she felt it was time for a refresh. She updated the functional space with basic renovations: fresh coats of paint and new window treatments, faucets and lighting.
Vanity
Chrome vanity fixtures bring a clean, modern feel and provide proper lighting for tasks such as applying makeup.
Mirrors
The homeowner wanted to update the full-size mirror over the vanity without the hassle of removing it and patching the drywall. Her solution: She painted a pair of rectangular mirrors to match the cabinetry and hung them using hollow-wall drive anchors placed slightly below the light fixtures. The result is an upscale look that breaks up the lengthy mirror expanse without a large investment of time or money.
Hardware
Dated hardware was exchanged for classic chrome knobs, pulls and hinges. The shiny finish stands out against the dark cabinetry and complements the new faucets and lighting.
Fixtures
Double-handle faucets with high-arching spouts add clean, contemporary lines to the space.
Extras
Serene green walls and warm brown cabinets blend with the pre-existing white tile. The Roman shade adds texture to the design. A small glass shelf offers extra storage for soaps and lotions.
