60s Bathroom Fix!






When we bought our house I had every intention of ripping the bathrooms and kitchen completely out and putting in brand new ones.. Well turns out thats pretty expensive. So expensive that these bathrooms arent looking that bad anymore.  With a little paint and creative decor and the kids bathroom is actually pretty cute! This bathroom has yellow tile around the tub, a yellow bathtub, yellow toilet and green tile on the floor!! The previous owner put a rose border at the top of the walls and painted the walls a pale pink! Yuck!! Here is the result of my makeover that costs around 150. I searched online shopping sites looking for something that would match the green and yellow.. I found this monkey theme at walmart that matches perfectly. The green trees match the floor tile and the yellow on the bananas match the bathtub. I painted the walls brown to match the monkeys and replaced the white tiolet seat with bamboo one to tie in the jungle feel! You will notice this is a small bathroom! I added the over the door towel rack to make space for the towels! I also replaced the mirror on the wall with a framed one. I added some details like the monkey stickers(dollar tree) and the polka dot trash can and it all looks great! My favorite thing in this room is the wall pictures. I found those on ebay and paid 15 for the prints; each one is personalized with one of my childrens names. I got the frames for them at dollar tree.
