Bathroom Creativity... Cheap!

This is one of many projects in process. This project was really easy and CHEAP!

Supplies

Frames: 1-2$ ea. at DI (Thrift)
Bottles: 2$ ea. at DI
Shells: Free, from beaches all over.
Ocean Prints: 1$ for 12

The prints are from a dollar store calender filled with pictures of the ocean!
Just cut out the pictures you like to fit the frames you have.
I got the bottles because every time I would look at the pictures of the ocean I would get "message in a bottle" by The Police stuck in my head. My idea is to find a lot of different size bottles and put them all over the bathroom.


Sophie's Tip: Prints can be expensive especially if they are already framed. Look through all sorts of calenders to find different ideas. It is a inexpensive and easy way to fill frames. Just remember to avoid the "wild stallions on the beach" calenders... I'm so weirded out by those.

Bathroom Revamp

I am in the process of gathering inspiration to revamp my bathroom. We live in a older apartment. The colors on the floor of the bathroom are neutral and dated. I obviously can't paint so...
What to do?....

I would LOVE to have a chandelier in my bathroom one day.

I like beach themes in bathrooms... typical? Yes.Love all of this.

This bathroom has clean lines and I love the framed picture of the flower.

I love walls that are covered in pictures.

The colors of the walls and the cabinets in this picture match my bathroom colors. I like the idea of getting an accent rug with interesting pattern.

Sophie's Tip: Before starting a project search the internet and your favorite magazines for inspiration. Brainstorm your favorite ideas. Don't be afraid to mix and match what you like, your bathroom doesn't have to look just like a picture in a catalog. Pull ideas from here and there and then draw out a sketch of your idea. I can be a very indecisive shopper, so it always helps me to have a picture in my head of what I should be looking for.
