Powder Room

First, let's take a look at the before picture to give you an idea of what it looked like when we bought the house. Keep in mind that previous owners foreclosed on this old farmhouse and that we lived with this room stripped completely for over a year (that nasty carpet and fixtures were gone)! Thank goodness for my ability to see potential, otherwise this alone would have had us running the other direction!

Gross!
And it had brass accents. Here is the door/hook before:


And "TA-DA". Here are the shots of the fresh, new and CLEAN powder room:











Still to do: Install built-in shelves for wash basin/pitcher and accessories above the toilet.


I cut off the bottom of the curtain to hem it to correct length and had a little leftover to dress up the towel.
And I liked the idea of the hook on the door for hanging the towel
(using a curtain clip for easy removal/washing)
since the space is too small for a towel bar!




And look at the door knob! So much better than gold brassy!
