May Makeover: Tabby’s Bathroom

Tabby Von Meow gave us a call earlier this week and invited us over to see her “horrible bathroom.” Hailey and I thought “horrible” was a bit of a strong word – but that was before we had seen the room. When we actually WENT to her house and SAW it in person, we had to agree – “horrible” is actually quite befitting. Take a look for yourself:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

That’s me, peeking out from behind the orange tree.

The problems with this room are threefold:
1. The floor – while blue tiles work in SOME rooms, they overwhelm this little room. The blue is just TOO intense – it overpowers everything else.

2. The layout isn’t great – ideally, having the bathtub oriented in a different direction or having some kind of divider between the tub and the toilet would be ideal.

3. The walls are SO bare – there are no pictures, there’s no mirror – there’s nothing but a very blah wall color.

This room needs some serious help!

Tabby begged us to work our magic, but she had two requests:

1.    Keep the walls pretty basic. Tabby wanted a very peaceful bathroom, and I guess she was worried that I’d go a little crazy with colors and patterns. Or a mural (it would’ve been a good idea, trust me!).

2.    Infuse some pink! I love pink (as does Hailey) so this was an easy one. Pink is an extremely restful, easy color to live with (except, you know, neon pink).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And voila! This is the end result. We’ve got a well-laid-out, pretty bathroom. We’ve got a simple but elegant (and pink!) room. The walls are still pretty basic, but we added nice wainscoting and swan border. The pink tiles work nicely with the dresser and the white fixtures. Tabby was very pleased with the result – and so were we!

    I love the second one- the first one is horrible. It’s way too cluttered and ugly.

    Interesting, Firefox still doesn’t recognize this page.

    Nice, but shouldn’t the tub be by the divider?

    i like the second one better, but whats with the dresser, its a bathroom right? (rhetorical don’t answer.) Also i like it when the before and after rooms use ONLY w shop items. Because then if we what them to redesign our room, but they don’t, we can buy all the items, put them in the exact same spots as the picture, and there you go! Your own little bathroom that looks like it was redesigned by them.
