I have been getting a lot of comments about how ugly the kids/guest bathroom was so I decided to work on remodeling it. It was originally painted a light yellow with a whitewashed oak vanity. Definitely not the cutest room in the house.
To begin with, I repainted the vanity to a nice pretty black. Instead of painting it with a paint brush, my friend suggested we spray paint it. I was doubtful, but decided to go ahead with it. It was AWESOME. Because it's spray paint, I didn't have to sand or anything! I just covered the vanity and floor with plastic and threw a garbage bag over the toilet. It took about30 minutes to put two coats on the whole thing. It has held up really well and is super easy to clean. Then we added a new mirror with a nice big frame that I found at a salvage yard for $20.

I wasn't loving my towel rack, so Zach made me this cute shelf with wood we had around the house. We pulled the hooks off of an old bashed up shelf and it is perfect for hanging towels.
I found some pretty dusty purple towels and sewed a piece of ribbon in the middle for hanging from the hooks. I chose some cute ribbon with fun sayings like, "Journey, Cute as a Button, Love, Follow Your Dreams, etc. With the left over ribbon, I sewed a length of ribbon across the bottom of the towels to finish it off. I think they turned out really cute, and the ribbon helps kids and guests keep track of which towel is theirs.

Very nice!! I might have Zac come live with me to help with some crafty projects!
I love your bathroom! Teresa, your hair is so LONG! And I just love your kids. Also, Dave looks good when he smiles. Maybe he should try doing it more often?
This looks amazing! I am very impressed. Funny that Wendy noticed how long your hair is... that's the first thing I said to Ryan when I was looking at the blog!
