Our kitchen wasn’t the only room affected by our recent KITCHEN REMODEL! Our guest bathroom received a total makeover! Since it had the same tile that was being removed throughout the house, we decided it was the perfect time to give that bathroom a makeover! We transformed it from dark and traditional to updated and transitional!

This bathroom serves as the bathroom for my 3 youngest children AND the bathroom that guests use when they are on the first floor. It gets a lot of use and hasn’t been touched in the 10 years we have lived here {except for a new mirror and light}.

I remember reading somewhere that a powder room is the perfect place to do something special in your home. Something unexpected. Our guest bathroom was anything BUT that! So that simple idea of creating a “special room”, was the driving inspiration behind this makeover.

Take a look at the guest bathroom before…

This bathroom lacked pizzaz! Small bathrooms can be so fun! Since they are unconnected to other rooms, they feel special like a tiny jewel box with hidden treasures inside.  I wanted our new bathroom to feel like a tucked away surprise.

Since it is good to create flow from one room to another to give your home some continuity, I looked for a way to tie in our newly remodeled kitchen with this bathroom. Because the kitchen showcased mixed metals, this seemed like the perfect way to link the two rooms together.

So, to start redesigning this space, I followed the DESIGN PROCESS I shared HERE. I started pinning photos for inspiration {you can follow along with me on Pinterest HERE}, and creating a list of products I liked. You can follow this same process to redesign any space in your home.

Once you gather all of your inspiration, create a mood board to help you visualize the room before you make any purchases.

Here is the mood board I created after gathering some inspiration…

I became so excited seeing the vision come together on the computer screen!!!! This is such an amazing way to help you make selections for your project.

• Delta Cassidy Faucet in Polished Nickel Finish {these are the same faucets we used in our MASTER BATHROOM REMODEL HERE}

We loved all of our fixtures from our master bath remodel so much, we decided to use Delta again for this remodel. They have an amazing selection of products for every budget and their quality is fantastic. I love the polished nickel finish. It looks silver but then has a subtle gold hint to it, giving it some warmth.

• Crystal and Brass KNOBS and PULLS from House of Antique Hardware {these are the same ones we used in our kitchen here}
• Marble counter tops from Arizona Tile
• Basketweave Bianco Polished marble tile from Arizona Tile
• Crystal Brass Semi Flush Chandelier from Lighting Design  {call to order}
• Brass and crystal sconces from Lighting Design {call to order}
• Beaded Mirror 
• Silver Towel Ring

Below are a few shots of the demo and remodel process. I will be sharing the all of the details and reveal next week!

The shower walls look like marble but they are really a 12 x 24 porcelain tile from Arizona Tile {HERE }! The floor is a Calcutta Gold hexagon tile found here .

We had the walls skim coated to a flat texture then had wood trim added to look like wainscoting. Just wait until you see the finished product!!!! You may also notice the door to the toilet is gone and their is an archway in it’s place.

The same shaker cabinets and marble countertops were added in the bathroom as in the kitchen. I wanted this piece to feel like a piece of furniture instead of a bank of cabinets.

Next week I will share the full reveal and all of the detail! Here is a sneak peek until then!
