My Tiny House - Part 2

As I said before, I live in a tiny house. 

We knew we had lots to do when we moved into this home.  Most of it was cosmetic which I could live with. 

Our bathroom was one of those rooms.  When we moved in it had a blue paint on the ceiling & walls above the tile.  We do not have enough money/time/know how to completely gut the bathroom, so here is my fix.  I painted the walls and ceiling white and took down the shower doors.  We had planned on changing out the vanity, floor, mirror & lights out one day.  Fast forward 5yrs later...it still needs/needed to be done.
About a month ago I got so tired of looking at the gold.  Not to mention one of the glass globes broke and I really needed to replace it.  Try and finding a globe to match a really old one.  Not possible.  I really liked the detail on the mirror/medicine cabinet, though.
I took the left over white paint that I had used on the walls and ceiling and painted the vanity, light fixtures & mirror.  I probably should have used an antique white, but I am LAZY frugal and wanted to use what I already had.  I bought 2 new globes.  I filled in the holes on the doors with wood putty and put glass knobs on.
Much better. Just amazing what a little paint will do.

And again...more before and after shots...
(please note, I want to paint all of the woodwork & door white, but my husband would have a heart attack...so I have left that battle for another day.)

I am linking to these fabulous parties, here.
