New Look For The Bathroom


Now that I have been on this tangent for awhile about my home and keeping up with all this kids and all their messes and everything else that comes my way, I keep finding things I want to fix and make better in my home.  We have two bathroom in our home.  One is the bathroom that mainly my husband and I use by our Bedroom and then there is the main bathroom for kids and guests to use.  Did you catch that?  Kids and guests?  I feel for my guests!  That is going to be my focus on getting that bathroom looking pretty and clean.  At the current time it is messy and boring.  The bathroom is stark white with a blue tub, blue toilet, and blue sink.  We rent this home so as much as I would like I cannot replace those fixtures.  I need to somehow work with the color.



Last night I had an idea.  I ran to JoAnn Fabrics and I bought some material to make a curtain.  It took me about 3 hours and I came up with a cute curtain plus a little divider that separates the toilet from the sink.  The main curtain has blue and yellow flowers with a touch of green in it.  The divider curtain is yellow and white.  I am not finished with the curtain yet as I still need to buy some tiebacks for it.  I will work on buying the rug, towels and decorations once we get paid.



My husband feel that we are only renting so why spend money making it look nice.  We have lived here going on 3 years!!  We will stay at least another year.  I wish I did this sooner.  Here are a few pictures to show you my work.


Here is the print of the curtain over the window.



This is the curtian that separates the toilet from sink.  I wanted to draw out the yellow in the main curtain.




Here is another view with them together.



This is the view of the entery way.  Yes that is a green rug.  That will be replaced VERY SOON.
