I love when I can show off a shocker, something that I can’t believe that the before picture is the after one. Don’t you? Just preparing you! You must stop by…her blog is filled with all sorts of goodies. AND I mean goodies! Recipes, crafts, DIY projects. Go ahead, pop over and introduce yourself. Please bring me back some blog header leftovers?
Chocolate Monday has created a transformation dream. Here is her post:
The whole project was around the $400 range, including the buffet, sink, faucet, plumbing, tile, beadboard, baseboard, crown moulding and paint. Our master bathroom vanity redo has been technically finished for a few weeks. I’ve just been working on the details but decided to post since it will probably take a little while until it’s completely done, down to the tiniest thing. I’m not an impulsive shopper or decorator. I like to take my time.
Anyway….
Goodbye formerly dark-brown laminate cabinets
with the white paint peeling off.
Goodbye stained and chipped countertop.
Bye-bye ginormous, plain old boring, cracked mirror.
Adios sassy brassy leaky faucet.
Bye-bye overly textured, partially painted walls.
See ya later soap and toothbrush holder that I’m sure had to be
included in the original blueprints for the walls of the bathroom.
Hello beautiful, clean, bright white bathroom I have been dreaming about!
A few little things still left to be done.
Deciding on a ribbon for the drawers is one. I love this idea.
I saw it in a magazine and on this blog.
I’m just having a hard time finding the perfect one.
I really like the blue.
I like the white too.
But probably the blue more.
Just not sure if I like that particular blue….
Definitely not the yellow.
Painting the little mirror on the floor.
It’s for little people who can’t see in the big one since
the vanity is quite a bit higher than it used to be.
The picture frame on the wall needs something in it and
we’ll probably put in a small towel bar on the opposite wall.
The little houses in the birdcage need a new shade of blue paint.
They’re a shade that’s too far off everything else in there.
And I’ve been eyeing a couple of wire baskets
to put underneath the sink for towels.

Have you had a chance to visit the vendors?
I’M SO EXCITED ABOUT THE GIVEAWAY EVENT! HOW ABOUT YOU?
The vanity above reminds me…I love pretty things!
Like this ring:
This handmade fused glass ring is sure to delight. The ring is a highly durable sustainable exotic hardwood with a glass surface. Each ring is an original piece of wearable art. I offer whole sizes 6-9. This ring is just enough “chunk” to MAKE an outfit, it’s also a great everyday source of inspiration.

THEN….
Good Morning Roeshel! I LOVE that vanity makeover. It is stunning. The white with the soft blue really works well. I love it! I also love the mirror above the vanity. Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful weekend!!
Oh my goodness, I love this! You should share it at the FFF link party today. What a perfect piece of furniture to use for a vanity. I have wanted to do this for years, but have not had the right piece of furniture or the right spot for it. Beautiful work!
PS – I'm so bummed I missed you surprise party!
Stunning!
Oh wow! The vanity post just confirmed that the ideas I have had floating around in my head for my master bathroom will work. The colors are even the same! She has pretty much done what I have been thinking of doing and I love the idea of using a buffet as that is the area I was dithering about – what to replace the current vanity with. As for my mirror, I was thinking about making a frame for it but I like the smaller mirror. Thank you very much for sharing this with us!

Gorgeous!! And what a fluke that the front dipped just low enough to hide the plumbing!
I detest box vanities. I yanked mine out too when I redid my bathroom and put in a 'temporary' pedistal sink. Know what? I ADORE the pedistal! It's staying for good. 🙂

Love it!! Headed to her blog now =)
Well, you warned us. And I still wasn't prepared for the wow factor on this redo. Love it!
Living it up at Lakewood,
