WARNING: THIS IS NOT PRETTY1111

This is the before of our bathroom. It is pretty awful and avocado.


After-with new everything---you didn't think I'd actually keep anything from the old room, did ya?
Instead of wallpaper, we decoupaged dictionary pages with orange shellac. (idea from DIY magazine). It was easy and very vintage. shelves are from garage sales and bottles from Big Lots. They held French lemonade and now hold mouthwash
This is my bathroom-after. We replaced the old sink and cabinet with pedestal sink, new toilet. Replaced nasty tile with beadboard. The walls are papered with pages from an old dictionary and orange shellac. This was a fun project. I have always loved to look at the drawings in the dictionary and now I have them on my wall. I copied this idea from a DIY magazine. The black shelf came from Goodwill, the bottles held French Lemonade from Big Lots; now they hold mouthwash.
