$500 budget bath makeover

12 years ago
I had to get rid of the wall papered bath with standard oak cabinets. I spent two weekends and about 500.00 ( including supplies) and took down the outdated wall paper, painted the walls, painted the cabinets, added new pulls and knobs. A new light fixture, new towel racks and some new decor. I still want to gut it and start from scratch, but this should hold me over until I have a bigger budget.

    When I looked at the before picture, I said that light and oak cabinets have to go. The after added almost fifty years to that 1970's bath. Good job

    Looks a ton better! Yes, it will be expensive to do something with that big tub at the end, but you will have so much space to work with when the time comes to gut. Not looking at that wallpaper every day has to be worth all your hard work!
