Except for the wallpaper, which we got from DecoratorsBest, we got pretty much everything for this remodel from Wayfair - from the floor tile, shower tile, the toilet, mirrors, sconce and all of the fixtures - even the cabinet pulls and toilet paper holder! They have such a huge selection to choose from and they have amazing customer service and are so wonderful to work with!
Here's a before shot from when we moved in. It was completely fine but we wanted to give it a little more personality.
And here it is now! We originally thought about playing around with the layout a bit so that the toilet wasn't the focus when you looked in from the hallway but after talking with the contractor and realizing that would double our labor costs we decided to keep it where it was and choose a toilet that we loved the look of. We actually chose this exact toilet in our last house and LOVED the clean lines of it so we went with it again and I am so glad we did. As silly as it may sound, I think it is a really pretty toilet - ha! And then by adding lots of visual interest with the bold wallpaper, the beadboard and the herringbone pattern on the floor it helps distract your eye from staring at the toilet too long.
And now:
And here was the shower - it felt cramped before:
but now by sticking with a white color scheme and removing the doors it feel so much larger:

and now:
We went with Delta's Brilliance Champagne Bronze color for the tub and shower fixtures as well as the ones for the sink. It is such a pretty color and I love the subtle touch of glamour it adds to the space.
Here's another before shot. Getting rid of the soffit made such a difference.
The vanity had recently been painted and a new counter added by the previous owner so we kept those things as is and then just updated the faucets and handles to go with the rest of the space. We also had the back and side splashes removed which I really think helps make the whole vanity feel so much more updated.
To really add interest we went with a bold wallpaper. My girls have very very different taste (as you can tell from each of their bedrooms - Lillie's can be found here and Lola's here) so the fact that they BOTH chose this wallpaper as their favorite was quite shocking! Haha! I had picked out ten or so that I thought they might like and never thought they would both end up liking the same one! I had them each list their top three and then was hoping there would be one that would be on both of their lists so was thrilled when they both listed this as their number one option! We got it from our sponsor, DecoratorsBest and it is absolutely beautiful! I have been eyeing it for several years now and was so excited to have a space where it worked so well! I love how bright and cheery it is and that the pattern is traditional but the bright color makes it feel more modern. I also love that when we are at the top of the stairs you can see both this wallpaper and Lola's and they coordinate really well together!
I had a hard time deciding on a sconce. I originally had chosen something more traditional but the color I wanted was on backorder so I had a few other similar ones I was deciding on and then decided to go with something a little bit more modern for a fun twist. I really like how it turned out but also know that if I decide I was something a little more traditional I can always add a basic shade to it.
I enjoy mixing some modern touches with some more vintage ones. This faucet has a vintage feel to it and I love how it looks against the beadboard.
We added these pulls and knobs to the vanity for another modern touch:
We also added some hooks to the back of the door for the girls to hang their towels on:
The marble floor is probably one of my favorite parts. I love that it feel classic and clean but also has a bit of a modern touch with the herringbone pattern.
Along with being able to do this makeover quickly we also were able to keep our budget for materials under $3000! I am so happy that we did this project and love seeing it as I go up and down the stairs each day!
