Garbage to Gorgeous™ Episode 8: Bathroom Makeover on a Budget
7 Materials
This is my largest Garbage to Gorgeous undertaking yet! This bathroom was trashed and needed a makeover, but I had a VERY tight budget. It will eventually get gutted, but in the mean time, it needed to function as a bathroom and not gross people out when they used it. Using thrift store items, paint and staying very neutral, it gave the bathroom a fresh new look! Don't underestimate what paint and a little elbow grease can do for you!
The bathroom was pretty easy with mismatched painted cabinetry and poorly patched walls.

Watch the video to see how I did it!
Here are the dirty and unpleasant cabinetry.
The photos don't really show how disgusting the bathroom was. So to start, it needed a good cleaning.
Then I patched the walls.
Primed and painted the cabinetry and walls.
Found inexpensive accessories at Good Will and made them look like they went together, with a little spray paint.
Then, I put it all together!
Clean and neutral!
