Last week I shared the . Today I wanted to share the cost breakdown and some more before and after photos. When we first moved in, the bathroom like the rest of the home was beige and oak. This is one of the only photos I can find from the week we moved in.
I painted the trim white, we replaced the flat oak doors with some six panel doors that are currently white, took down the green leaf towel holders and then made the mistake of painting a bright orange in the bathroom. Thank goodness that bad decision only cost me $4 out of pocket for the paint which was horrible paint and didn’t go on very well at all.
Thankfully, after participating in the One Room Challenge Link Party, we have a new and improved kids bathroom after to share!
We installed board and batten with hooks for towels.
You can find the tutorial on this swing shelf
Cost Breakdown:
2 gallons of paint – $13 total (both cans were oops paint, one was $4 and one was $9) This is the code on the paint can, I can NOT guarantee that this is correct as it was OOPS paint.
Shower Curtain – $20 Circo Warm Rugby Stripe not available at online but is in some stores. Also they have a online but is currently unavailable. I have had a few people ask about the shower curtain, you might want to check ebay as they had a few on there last time I looked.
Towels – $14 (Target)
Picture Frames – $24 (Kohls)
Knobs – $22 (Hobby Lobby)
Beadboard, Board/Batten & Trim – $70
Accessories – $22
New light fixture – $20 (Lowes clearance) but I sold our light fixture on CL for $20 so I really spent $0 on the new light.
Grand Total – $185
What color paint did you use?
Hi Amy, The paint is an oops paint special from Menards so there is no color on it. I could try and give you a code if you want!
Can you please provide the code of the oops blue paint?
Marni, I will email it to you!
How far up the wall is your moulding? I want to do this but can’t decide what a good height is!
Hi Kristen,
The moulding is 62 inches from the floor, that includes the top piece so the vertical battens are 54 inches from the trim. Hope this helps!
Where did you get those towel hooks? I can’t find anything like it anywhere!
Allison, I found them at Home Depot I believe, if not it was Hobby Lobby!
Thanks!! I didn’t find them at Home Depot so I’ll check out hobby lobby:)
We are currently fostering to adopt a little boy after only having girls so we had to switch up the bathroom to make it a boy/girl bathroom. This scheme was perfect! I was obsessing (ha!) about finding that exact shower curtain. I looked online and on e-bay for 3 months. One day I got lucky while I was at Target and they had it on their clearance rack. I paid 56 cents for it! (And to your reader looking for hooks, I found those exact ones at Lowes). Thanks for the inspiration!
Shannon, that is awesome!!!!! So glad you found it for such an amazing price. We are considering foster care in the future, hope your journey is going well!!!
can you please let me know where you found the striped shower curtain in the kids bathroom reveal- we just bought a new house and I would love to purchase it for my son’s new bathroom.
Erica, It was from target but is not in stores anymore. I would check online like ebay for it. Maybe try rugby striped shower curtain as a search.
I actually talked about this in the blog post so you could also read that.
is it possible to get color name
I will email it to you!
What kind of wood did you use for the batten?
We used 1×2 mdf boards. Hope this helps!
