Before and After: Master Bathroom


When we bought our house, we knew that there was a chance we would have an open vanity area in the master bedroom/bathroom. The neighborhoods we were mostly looking at are older, and that is just how most of the houses are designed. I was pretty picky about it, and told Will that the rest of the house would have to be pretty darn perfect for me to buy a house with an open vanity... and we would have to be able to put up a wall. We thought about putting up the wall ourselves, but decided to go with the professionals for this one. We are so pleased with the results, and know it will help with the resale of our home in the future.

Here is what it looked like before the wall was put up:


Sorry for the weird lighting our lights put off.

In a way, it was nice that it was open, lots of space, more lighting, made the bedroom and bathroom open and feel bigger. But it wasn't worth it to keep it open, especially with the ugly tiles that we still need to replace.

It took about a day and a half for them to put up and paint the wall. It turned out SO great. 

Here are a few during pictures:



And here is the finished result. We love it!

The thing we were most worried about was if it was going to make our room seem smaller and enclosed, but it doesn't at all! 

Next project will be replacing the floors in both upstairs bathrooms! I just need to convince Will that we need to do that this summer :) 

Hope everyone has a great week! We got our wedding pictures today, so my next few blog posts will be about our wedding!!
