Extreme Bathroom Makeover-kindof

When we moved into our house Every square inch of floor space was covered in carpet with the exception of one out of the two bathrooms (yes, our kitchen has carpet too. YUCK!) The carpet in the other bathroom was a lovely dark orange. Dark cabinets with jack and jill sinks, and dingy off-white paint complemented the flooring and it was all topped off by a hideous brass dropped light fixture. David and I figured we could update and improve it pretty inexpensively so ........----new tile floors, tiled backsplash and tiled bathtub surround from leftover tile....new light fixture, and paint. TA-DAH! Before. ( sorry, my computer is acting up and I couldn't rotate it.)

After!David did an amazing job with the tiled backsplash! Love it!
I still need to put up the curtains and I'd like to replace that repulsive hand towel hanger and the sink faucets but all in all, I love it! It's so much brighter and more modern.
