bathroom redo on budget

12 years ago
Here is my dilemma: first, should I match ALL fixtures-faucets, lights, valves, etc and since my tile is essentially white, should I paint the vanity(red oak currently) a dark color (BM witching hour) which matches my new framed mirror beautifully and install granite in dark color that matches (remnant works). Or, do I go lighter with countertop? And, I was trying to save the almond fixtures, but it is such a tough color to work with. I could have tub unit sprayed white and put in new white toilet, sink. Thoughts?? Help!

    would not recommend painting the tub. This never works well.

    Really, it sounds like the only thing you don't want to change is the tile. You wouldn't put an old top mount sink on granite, painting a tub is futile long run, the cabinets need redoing and all the fixtures need replacing and wallpaper need removing. Sounds like a reno to me.
