Weekend Bathroom Refresh

Week 3 of my DIY a Week Challenge

Video below

We didn't have the time for a complete bathroom remodel, but our old master bath tiles were getting really old and looking dated and dingy.  I was ready to give up and call in a contractor, when I discovered that you can actually paint bathroom tile.  I decided to give it a try and love the results.  I used flat white "Todo Terreno" paint by Beissier.

​

This bathroom is not finished yet, I ordered black hardware and got a new light, which should be installed by next week.  I am also thinking of painting the floor and maybe painting some kind of design on the wall tiles.

​

This project should take two days or less, and it is easy and fun.  You'll love the results, especially the price.

​

For the decor, I got a cute rug at Jumbo Greece for € 7.99, and the rest were things I already had at home.

​

This is what my bathroom looked like on Friday:

STEP 1:

Clean, then paint the tile.  I used "Todo Terreno" white paint from Beissier and applied three coats.  It dried quickly, so I only waited about an hour or two between coats.

STEP 2:

Add plants.  There are several plants I am loving right now, and all are great for a bathroom. I also added some wall art and the top of an olive ladder as a towel rack.

STEP 3:

Add many, many candles with interesting holders.  This will add color and texture.  Nothing makes a space look better than candlelight.
