Oh Make Me Over // A Bathroom Mood Board

For months (and months and months) now, I’ve been brainstorming a bathroom makeover for my home, and it’s time to put a few of those ideas to ~~paper~~ screen.

Now, I’m a firm believer in not updating homes just for the sake of updating – house flipping makes me so so sad – but sometimes updates need to be made to improve a space’s functionality. That’s where this bathroom update falls. Right now, our bathroom has the original tub, sink, vanity and fixtures. But these are all very worn and in some cases, just downright broken. Combine that with some iffy wiring, a hole in the drywall and peeling wallpaper and you’ve got a solid case for renovation in my book.

I’m in the earliest stages of this project now, but before I got ahead of myself I wanted to make a mood board to help guide me along my way (and to help me visualize if what I’m thinking of is not a good look).

And while I do have quite the cabin on my hands, I wanted to take this room in a bit of another direction – a tropical one. While that doesn’t exactly suit the rustic vibe of my house, I’m OK with it since the major parts of the room – the tile, vanity and fixtures – will be pretty classic.
