I can’t believe that it’s already Bathroom Reveal Week for the Primp and Pamper Bathroom Refresh blog hop! I still am amazed at all the great sponsors that Jewel was able to pull together for us, and so grateful that I was able to join such an amazing group of ladies in this hop. If you’re joining me here from Kelly’s post on Street Flea Style, welcome! I am seriously in awe of her bathroom – it went from kinda boring to absolutely BEAUTIFUL!
If you want to check out where the girl’s bathroom started, you can check out week one’s post HERE. When we started a few weeks ago, we had already put a lot of the major work, such as the new tile in the shower and floors, etc, but it was lacking any kind of style or personality.
It’s been a busy few weeks, but I really love the way it turned out, and so do the girls!
First and foremost, the wallpaper made the biggest impact in the room. The SmithHonïg wallpaper , called Bryony Storm Noir, was pretty easy to install. It is like a giant sticker, you just peel the back paper and apply it where it needs to go. After the paper went up, which was the first thing I did, the room felt completely different – more fun, vibrant and fresh. With no natural light in the bathroom, I was worried that it would be too dark, but I think it actually brightened it up in there.
The easiest update in the bathroom was switching out the drawer pulls and handles. Liberty Hardware provided these beautiful pulls, and I think they were the perfect accent to modernize the vanity. The vanity is painted in an oil base paint, Naval by Sherwin Williams. It’s my favorite shade of navy – not green, not purple, just blue. I also replaced the hinges with ones I picked up from Home Depot, as the old ones were old and brassy, and didn’t go with the pretty handles.
Another easy update was the addition of the rug from Rugs USA. I love that it is warm and soft underfoot, and fits with the entire room. There is a lot going on with the wallpaper and the shiny finishes, and the rug is the perfect neutral that pulls it all together.
We had to take down the mirror above the sinks, which was quite a task since it was glued on. Since the sinks were so far apart, we had to make sure we replaced them with large enough mirrors to take up the space while not being so large that they were oddly placed over the sinks. These Takeo mirrors from Lamps Plus were the perfect size,31″ x 43″, and look even more beautiful in person than I can relay in these photos.
Artwork was so hard in this room because I really didn’t want to compete with the pretty wallpaper, so I painted a few of the frames I had laying around the house and put them up as temporary “art”. I think in order for it to really work, I might need a few more frames.
Our old goldy-brass faucets and accessories were replaced by the Voss collection by Moen – even the toilet tank lever was updated to match.
I love the crisp, chrome finish and that they are fun without being too trendy. I think they are a timeless choice.
I have to say, since my very first experience in our old house with Moen’s toilet paper holders that flip up to change the roll, I’ve only put those kinds of paper holders in our bathrooms. It makes it super simple to change out the roll, without catching your fingers in the process! Now, if I could just get the kids to do it, that would be great. 😀
The shower was re-tiled with 12″ x 24″ marble on the walls, and herringbone mosaic tiles on the floor. We got them at Floor and Decor last year. I love that the gray of the marble is very blue-ish gray, which ended up looking incredible with the wallpaper! At first, I was worried that the veining might be a little busy, but I love how pretty each individual piece is. Our tile guy was really good about using the cuts to wrap around the corners, which I love.
Two of my favorite things about their shower is the large bench seat we had put in, and the niche for their shampoos and other shower stuff. The niche kind of blends into the wall since we used the same tile as the walls for it. It gives them a lot of tall space for their shampoo and conditioner. Nothing is worse than to find out your niche is useless because it doesn’t hold your stuff!
So, I hope you loved my big reveal! Make sure that if you missed any of the other reveals, you can check them all out here.

And a final THANK YOU to all the sponsors of the Primp and Pamper Bathroom Refresh Blog Hop. Although some of the items I used to update the girls’ bathroom was provided by them, all reviews, ideas and comments are my own.

Such a great improvement and that shower looks divine! perfect bathroom for growing girls
A Pinterest Addict says
They definitely put the space to good use – I’m just glad they both have their own space to get ready, because they are already into doing their hair and nails and posing in the mirror!
Jewel Marlowe says
That Wallpaper is to die for and that shower and the vanity are unbelievably. Nice J.O.B!
A Pinterest Addict says
I’m amazed at how much better the countertop looks with the painted vanity, new pulls and wall paper. Much less tired and dated. Thanks again for organizing this awesome hop!
Tiffany Brown says
It’s amazing how darker walls somehow, brighten up a space. That wallpaper is UHmazingly beautiful!!!!
A Pinterest Addict says
Isn’t that crazy?! We had just painted them a pretty shade of light blue – and it didn’t do anything to make the space any brighter/lighter. This paper is magic!
ariel says
Girl! How slick is this bathroom?! Holy smokes! I am absolutely in love with that shower, but that’s another story. Great finishes, and I absolutely love the colour you painted the cabinets. Such a chic little space for two growing girls.
A Pinterest Addict says
Thanks – I’m envious of their shower too! Ours is horrible, looks like poo colored tile on the walls… ugh. I can’t wait to make that room over! I showed the girls some of your posts the other day and they want to do some of your crafts! They loved the purse the other day!
Kellie Collins says
Amazing, love the wallpaper & the blue vanity

Thank you! Edgar says to say hi! xo
Monica @MonicaWantsIt.com says
This space is so fun and girly- it’ll grow with them. I love the tile you chose for the space, too. Perfection!
A Pinterest Addict says
Super girly – but not too little girl (that’s what the girls said – lol) Right now, their bathroom is a million times better than ours, so I’m jealous of their tile!
Heather says
Beautiful use of colors. Love the design. Bright interesting. Fantastic
A Pinterest Addict says

Jess McGurn says
WOW! This turned out amazing. I just LOVE that wallpaper. It’s such a gorgeous bold statement. All of the Chrome accents are amazing too. Nice work!
A Pinterest Addict says
That wallpaper makes the room! And Yes! I love the Moen Voss collection – chrome is my favorite!
Debbie says
As always it turned out just beautiful. I am sure the girls love it.
A Pinterest Addict says
They do! And, they are happy to have me out of their hair (and their rooms!) now that it’s done 🙂
Cher says
I’m sure the bathroom remodel was fun and a lot of work, however, it’s not my personal style. It would be too dark for my taste and I’m not really a fan of the wallpaper. Hope you enjoy using it!
A Pinterest Addict says
Yep, lots of work and fun. And while I’m sad it’s not your cup of tea, we love it! You have a much more coastal look about your house, which is lovely, so I can imagine that it wouldn’t be a style you’d go for. They do have some other paper that might work for you though. Thanks for stopping by 🙂
Brisha says
Definitely has style and personality now! I bet they love it ! So fun! The wallpaper reminds me of a Monet, it’s beautiful!
A Pinterest Addict says
They are excited, and show it off to everyone that comes over. They are both really into all the HGTV shows, and they come up with funny comments that you can tell they heard on those shows… like ” well, that just pulls it all together, doesn’t it!?” LOL! They are a hoot!
Jessica says
I absolutely love that wallpaper. This turned out so pretty and dreamy!
Mary Meyer says
The wallpaper is stunning. Such a beautiful space! Congrats on a job well done.
Christine Paris Dodaj says
Absolutely stunning! I love everything you’ve done with this gorgeous house!
Scottie says
Wow girl! What a bold choice- and BRAVO! I love it- Perfect for growing girls to love for years but classy and show stopping for guests.
Michele B says
This is so beautiful and different from anything I’ve ever seen. You have such a way with blues. I think my love of blue was born in one of your projects.
cassie bustamante says
that paper is awesome! totally makes the space!!!
Ashley says
I always love your transformations! They are unique and timeless! You are definitely gifted and have a great vibe with some vintage glamour thrown in! Nice work as usual!
Mary Beth says
Love the wallpaper and paint color – it’s really such a pretty room. And when I move in, I’ll sleep in that gorgeous shower. Well done friend…it’s amazing.
Stephanie P. says
