The perfect time to redo a small bathroom is when you're already doing another bigger project in your house.  You have to go through all the same steps, with the same subcontractors, why not kill two birds with one stone? 

I worked on a remodel of a master bath in this house and we tacked the powder room on too. I'll share that project later....now, here's the before pic of the powder room.

A little tired, a little dated, and ready for a facelift. Ooooo, that pedestal sink!

Yes, this powder room has a shower.  There's a room next door that can be used as a bedroom. The homeowner wanted to keep the limestone tile floor that spread into the hallway and we decided to replace all the other finishes and fixtures.  She wanted a warm look, with golden tones and wood finishes.

A cultured marble shower box, dated wallpaper, and fixtures didn't do this home justice.


construction  progress - great tile job

We used more of the same limestone that was on the floor of the bathroom in the shower with a nice subtle pattern, a new custom built vanity to fit perfectly in the niche, a shapely limestone counter and splash (because you know I love a curvy backsplash), and pretty wallpaper in a rich, coppery color. 

The result....a warmer look that relates to the existing finishes elsewhere in the house that feels a lot more special!
