Before & After: Dana’s Updated Bathroom

We’ve been following along as Dana and her husband sold their old house, moved into an apartment, and rebuilt a small house — all while also welcoming their third child. I’m sure this master bathroom update is a great indication of how the rest of the house has come together.

Dana and her handy hubby, Steve, worked with what they’ve got in this small bathroom. Instead of making this master bath larger, they’ve made the most of the tiny space by keeping everything light and shiny.

Of course the first thing to improve this space was removing the mismsatched everything. Pink tile, green bathtub, ugly old sink? They all had to go. In their place, the couple chose a white tile with a dimpled texture that catches the light brilliantly. To make the space feel larger, they installed the tile all the way up to the ceiling. The ugly old vanity was replaced with a modern floating sink and drawer unit in a cool, high gloss gray. The two drawers will help keep the space tidy and the lacquered finish will help the room feel bright. The only thing that remains is the toilet, cleaned up and good as new.
