Isn’t this entire chalkboard wall fabulous?!

Bathroom before leaves a little to be desired, maybe even a lot…
But now, it’s beautiful!  They put up beadboard, installed new wood floors, a new sink, cabinet, faucet and light fixture.  They added a new door and refinished that gorgeous claw foot tub.  They wallpapered, textured and painted it a warm yellow.  Lack of any natural lighting affects the picture color, but you can still see that their hard work paid off BIG from the pictures below:

A thrift store treasure hunter too!
